Who Are We? Experts Weigh In

For some time now, Chiron has been occupying Aries asking us a question - who are we? What is our identity? Will we be identified, for instance, as a democracy, an oligarchy, a facist state or what? Are we a transactional entity, expecting something in return for anything we put out in the world or do we see our role as a generous world leader? I am attaching a fairly long article that I think is right on point with these questions. It isn't astrology, but it sure fits the above astrology. Everything starts with an identity, a self definition. This author says most Americans aspire to be the good guys...that is sometimes simply aspirational, but nevertheless is important.
This is a substack article by Garry Kasparov, quoting Admiral William MacRaven. Admiral William H. McRaven is a decorated military leader, strategist, and champion of democracy. Over his 37-year career as a Navy SEAL, he commanded special operations forces at every level, ultimately leading US Special Operations Command. He oversaw some of the most consequential missions in modern history, including the operation that brought Osama bin Laden to justice, the capture of Saddam Hussein, and the rescue of Captain Phillips.

Also, from now through the summer, Neptune has moved into Aries, the sign of identity as well. I am attaching a link to a detailed explanation of what Neptune in Aries can look like. Aries is about a hero archetype and Neptune links that desire to a spiritual code. A hero who wants to make a stand. That link is here. https://youtu.be/Pbf6GWgc8iI
Full Moon in Libra - the Pink Moon (so Libra!) - is April 12 at 7:22 CDT. Also on April 12, Venus, the ruler of Libra, will leave her retrograde motion and go direct. (We have had a chance to review and perhaps gain new perspective on Libran relationships during the Retrograde). The Full Moon highlights the dichotomy between ourselves and others. Since the Sun will be in Aries, near Chiron, it is a good time to reflect on who we are so that we can decide who we can be in partnership with spouses, lovers, colleagues and allies.
