Donald Trump and the Supreme Court
Jupiter’s judges are entrenched with god-like powers as they look down from their benches determining the fate of lesser mortals. They experience a sense of power that few experience.
Since taking office on January 20, 2025, the federal courts (Jupiter-house 9) have been the only substantive roadblocks (square aspect) to Donald Trump’s agenda.
Jupiter’s judges temporarily suspended some of his most contentious actions, including a bid to end automatic citizenship for anyone born on US soil – a right established from the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution.
The federal and state Supreme Courts are supposed to be non-partisan and not aligned with either party. However, there are liberal judges, backed by the Democrats, and conservative judges, backed by the Republicans and they often vote predictably, along ideological lines.
That’s why both parties try to stack higher courts with those they believe will endorse their policies.
November 5: The US Supreme Court hears arguments concerning the legality of Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs (Jupiter) and whether he overstepped his authority (Sun) in imposing most of his tariffs under a federal law meant for emergencies.
It’s a major moment in US history.
Doanld Trump believes he has unconstrained executive power.
In Trump’s chart progressed Mercury – planet of controversy – is conjunction birth chart Mars – planet of strife in house 12 (disappointment) and cusp ruler of house 9 (the Supreme Court) – and sextile progressed Jupiter; and progressed ascendant is semisquare birth chart Mars.
Mars is parallel Jupiter in the sky from November 2 to November 16 > it’s at peak power on November 8
So, what if the Supreme court – the judiciary – tells the executive – Donald Trump – that he has breached the law; and what if Trump rejects the court’s authority, refusing to follow its ruling even after exhausting all appeal options? Then, America will have a constitutional crisis and probably an economic crisis.
America’s markets and economy are based on the rule of law. Individuals feel they have to follow the rule of law and what the courts say; and if they don’t there’s no such thing as the rule of law.
The US constitution exists to keep a check on executive power.
The justices can take 2 to 3 months to deliver a verdict but on November 13 progressed Moon in America’s chart moves to form a square aspect with birth chart Jupiter forecasting major events involving the courts, trade, finances and/or religion > its peak power date is December 7.
At the same time progressed Moon is square birth chart Jupiter in the Aquarian Age chart. It activates all the Jupiter progressions including progressed Jupiter – trade and tariffs – conjunction progressed Neptune – deceptive schemes that deliver chaos and confusion.
And on February 20, 2026 Saturn is conjunction Neptune in the sky.
