Fictional astrological Orchid Whitestone, delicate and touchy, author of Day-By-Day Fly-By-Nights, chooses to explain with humor how mundane planetary aspects affect the birth charts of nations, leaders and events. She brings the ancient basis of mundane astrology, that which happens to Kings and Queens happens to their subjects, into modern times with the actual birth chart of nations and events. "e;Orchid Said It at the Time"e; contains snippet-size chapters of usually 2-3 pages for an easy bedside read. Discover how mundane astrologers interpret the big picture, as well as the little picture. Orchid adds a chuckle here and there. Read chapters titled "e;...Potty Mouth...Scream the Headlines,"e; "e;Does the Pet in Your Home Have a House?,"e; and Venus Retrograde in the Scorpio Theater."e;Orchid's rustic cousin Orris Root, CEO of the fragrances and mouth products Root family business, visits, shares tea and discusses the state of the world. Orchid is also visited by her cousins Burdock and Valerian Root, the latter, a recluse, who rarely leaves home or socializes. Another cousin Seaflower Whitestone shows up at times. Orchid invested in Orris' start up company, Brushing-Through-the-Stars Ltd. Another relative, the Dutch Venus Von de Fly-Paper, of the fragrant stationery company, had always questioned Orchid's commitment to paper, or anything else, once Orchid announced she was dedicating herself to the mundane. Orchid occasionally receives visits from her Old Dutch aunt, Twerpy Von Twerple, a new world traveler, and other various clients. "e;Learning is what most adults will do for a living in the 21st century."e; S.J. Perelman, US Humorist, Playwright, Cartoonist. A nation's acknowledged time and date of birth are the basis of its birth chart, which reveals events to come to pass of a sort relative to planetary aspects reflecting off any individual birthchart. When a catastrophe or cataclysm occurs relative to a nation, its time and date of occurrence is noted and a mundane chart can be erected for it against which astrologers will compare that to its actual birth chart, and interpret the dynamic transiting effects called aspects or pressure, and their projected period of influence. They also may have plotted same prior to an aspect and prepared for its potentials - as best they could. The original purpose of charting astrological events was for the general population, that being a mundane report. As the nation went, so went its people. Later, as individuals developed wealth, they could afford to order their own astrological birthcharts. Orchid, being a thinker, produces some short serious essays, especially as she delves into the intense purging of Pluto as it moves ever so slowly. She must also assess the pressures of intense transits by Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, the latter two, with Pluto, called generational planets as they move so slowly through a sign, affecting in some similar ways all born during those long periods. Plus there are smaller, but no less effective planetoids, Ceres, Lilith, Chiron and others aspecting the world stage, particularly beginning 2017 to Covid. So the world was set for its current situation by the influence of the heavens and us. Through Orchid, one learns how to recognize and remember how the pressures of individual planets may be interpreted in feelings. Powerful planetary transits are spreading across the winter, spring and summer zodiac signs now, and are not as compacted, or focused on a single direction, as they have been in the past few years. Still they continue receiving intense aspects projected from the planetary heavens from 90 degrees (Square) and 180 degrees (Opposition) pressures. It has been said that "e;If one knows what is happening above them, they may better be able to prepare themselves for what will happen to them..."e; if they want to!
