GETTING STARTED
Around this time of my journey, I discovered the following video about what some called The Fourth Turning. According to the video, 2024 was the cusp of the fourth, fourth turning for the United States.
As I continued my research, I found this article about the 84-year cycle of Uranus titled “Uranus in Gemini, the Harbinger of War.” And this video titled “This is the 84 Year War Cycle | Finalize Your Affairs for War“. And yet another article about the constellation T Corona Borealis, which was due to go Nova at any moment; another 80-year cycle. Strangely enough, these 80 to 84-year cycles were about to collide at approximately the same time, asking the people of the United States once again what kind of country they envisioned for the future, for the world.
It explained the bipolar, racially charged political landscape and the extremes in politicians over the last many years, which caused significant division, misinformation, and a weakened consciousness. The pendulum appeared to be swinging back and forth between opposite extremes. At times, it almost felt deliberate, planned, and permitted. Politicians were idolized, not held accountable, and got away with everything. It was unfathomable. Social Media was experiencing its version of a Civil War as emotions and reactive behavior overcame users regularly.
According to these cycles, the upcoming years, 2025 through 2033, looked the most intense and unpredictable, with July 2025 through July 2027 being the pinnacle. Rumors of a physical Civil War or something similar to another Revolutionary War were rampant, and the media did a great job of foreshadowing with the following movie, which was No. 1 on MAX for weeks and weeks.
Was history about to repeat itself, or would humankind finally wake up, end the cycle, and embark on a new direction? Things did not look promising as of August 2024. I was curious to see who would be chosen to usher in this 4th Fourth Turning for the United States and what that might entail.
As I approached my first anniversary of living in Wilmington, New York’s second Long Island, I was particularly interested in Greenfield Lake. This lake was within walking distance of my house. My house was located at Latitude N34-12’36”, and my neighborhood resembled the horse and the Sun on The Sun card in the Tarot.
I felt like my journey had brought me to the right place. The stage was set. The year of The Sun was in front of me.
On August 31, 2024, I purchased the BIG Y-700 upgrade at FamilyTreeDNA and was told that the results would be posted sometime in November/December. In the meantime, I decided to move through the next eleven months with no agenda. I wondered if The Sun would shine on me, scorch me, or pass over me altogether.
Meanwhile, I paid close attention to the rest of 2024 and the first half of 2025 for any additional signs of The Fourth Turning.
