awesome..thanks for looking at it..
are three hit conjunctions fairly common?
i wish i could understand charts like that..I am learning, but it seems to take awhile to get it
NP... political astrology is always interesting to me
Yes, they are, especially with the slower planets, as they are retrograde so much. I'd have to do statistical research to give you a percentage of the retrograded 3-hit aspects among the slow planet in our time, but it's not uncommon at all.
To give you some starting points on Jupiter/Uranus...

Commentary: It is often difficulty to assess the nature of Jupiter-Uranus constellations. They indicate, in most cases, inner tension or strain which is then suddenly released. At one time, the author named this configuration the "Thank the Lord" position because people having such a configuration have repeatedly exclaimed the words "Thank the Lord" after the release of tension or strain from which they were suffering
In regards to political leaders and rulers, we generally want to pay attention to 3 objects: Sun, representing the radiance and all-illuminating nature of someone in a supreme leadership position; their influence radiates over all. Jupiter, representing the required expansion of self and "kingly wisdom" of the philosophical/legal mind required for rule, and Saturn to take the reins of authority and rule. This works both with national charts and with charts of political figures. One strong example is the chart of Saudi Arabia, the most powerful national figure in the middle east, and the seat of Islam. That nation has a powerful Sun/Jupiter conjunction on the ascendant, showing their strong, expansive, radiant influence. The conjunction is at 24Cap, sign of Saturn, and Saturn is dignified and loosely conjunct at 19Cap, making Saturn not only the final dispositor of the chart, but the "oriental planet", that is, that which rises before the Sun as a "messenger" of the Sun's will.

Transits to or from Jupiter are classic indicators of a person's rise to high political office, and are often accompanied by Venus, the personal planet of benefits and gifts. Uranus becomes very important in democratic elections, or in any situation where power is not usurped by military coup or overthrow by violent means but rather attained from the population, either through election or popular revolution. Situations of violent overthrow and military coup are handled by Pluto, yet often working in tandem with Uranus. Uranus rules over groups of people sharing a collectively agreed concept (ie: groups of people sharing a similar philosophy) so it becomes highly important in things like political parties and elections based mainly on political parties. In the USA, it is interesting to note that the new president takes office on Jan 20th, very close to the Aquarius (sign of Uranus) solar ingress, and the USA elections are based solely on political parties (as the popular vote does not decide the election). Much like the glyph of Uranus, there are two opposing forces pulling against eachother, with the hopes of attaining some form of balance. It could be said the USA has (or should I say had?) a nearly perfect model of a Uranian political system.
In essence, JU/UR=SO speaks of a strong chance of election, by party-line democratic or popular revolutionary means, to political office. There are more factors, or course, that I have not fully investigated. One will also need to watch this individual, and note important dates of happenings as the conjunction to his Sun grows near, to see which cycles are working in his life. JU/UR=SO is only one indicator, although a very major and obvious one, of a major life event of political nature. Without a birth time, solar arcs of the angles are not usable, which unfortunately are a very important consideration. Angular action, either by transit or progression/direction, is incredibly important.
I would have to agree the concept of "antichrist" is amazingly overblown, and would not exist if it was never fabricated by
religious extremists. It is a concept that should not be perpetuated, but dispelled. It is a construct of religious extremism, and will only manifest through the unrestrained evil in the hearts of spiritually devoid men, not at the hands of the divine providence or through his workers, of whom transcend the lines of individual religions. Religion can be a very dangerous concept and can lead vulnerable individuals down highly destructive and outright scary paths, if they do not handle it constructively. At the core of the problem is that essentially no religion fully recognizes other religions as equally valid, but rather sticks to the outright validity of their own concepts as more correct than others... And fail to realize that all religions are nothing more than an attempt of a specific demographic of people to create, in their world, their own expression of an etheric entity who brought mind, body and soul into this place we call earth. There is no right or wrong in religion, but the universal laws apply: that which promotes suffering and reduces true connection to the singular source is destructive. That which reduces suffering and helps people connect to the singular source is constructive.
The day that each individual recognizes that each religion is nothing more than another human attempt to connect to the source, and that there is only one source that we will never fully know in this lifetime, is the day we will know peace and true prosperity. Until then, we will live in fear of antichrists, mahdis, vengeful and jealous "gods" and religious extremists. One day, the light will shine upon this planet, if we don't crack it down the center with atomic weapons over a meaningless fight about our conscious perceptions of the source.
This problem must be addressed, on a universal, collective level, before we can move into the next age. It is the lingering issue of the Piscean age, the very crux of what humanity is to learn from the last 2000 years.
