Is Uranus Gunning for the Bidens?Earlier this year I warned that things were going to get tense for Joe Biden in the latter part of 2023. This was because transiting Uranus was make a long opposition aspect to his natal Mercury during this period. Well, here we are in the latter part of 2023 and President Biden is facing a possible government shutdown, an impeachment inquiry and the indictment of his son by federal prosecutors. That sounds pretty tense to me.Uranus transits are always difficult to predict. Uranus disrupts the status quo. Sometimes those disruptions can be surprisingly beneficial, and other times they can be shockingly destructive. The first pass of this aspect in Biden's chart seemed to fall in the former category. This happened in June 2023, Biden made a deal with House Republicans that raised the debt limit so that the government could continue to function and his son, Hunter,was offered a plea deal with prosecutors that seemed to resolve his multiple legal problems.Then, at the end of August, Uranus turned retrograde and that status quo began to fall apart. With the 2024 electing getting closer, hardline Republicans in the House began looking kinks in Biden's armor. They seem to think that a government shutdown and/or an impeachment trial would do the trick. Having his son thrown in prison would be nice addition. This sort of "go-for-broke" thinking is, of course, very much in keeping with Uranus and the planet's opposition to President Biden's natal Mercury.We don't have a time of birth for Hunter Biden so there much that we can't see. (Click on Hunter Biden to a chart done for noon on his date of birth.) However, even without a complete horoscope it appears that this Biden is also dealing with a Uranus transit. Uranus is currently close to making a trine to Hunter's natal Mercury, which is either at 19 or 20 degrees of Capricorn. (Uranus could also be trine his natal Moon but that can't be determined without a time of birth.)
