It is interesting to note that in 2020 the first lock downs began during the first all planets moving forward and again during the second one. Plus on January 20, 2021 there was another presidential inauguration. See the rest of the article for more insights about this.
All Planets are moving froward from January 27 to Apr 01, 2024 (64 days) See table below.
On March 9, 2020 all the planets were in forward motion. Shortly after that time the first lockdowns happened and we had a planetary experience where the energy was charging ahead and we the people were told to stay in place. We might wonder what was going on behind the scenes?
When all the planets are forward moving we could imagine this is a time designed to accelerate our personal growth. If so how does a lock down help facilitate that? Was it a way to reduce outside distractions, creating a time and space to contact our inner knowing, strength and courage?
It gives rise to what is really moving forward. Perhaps its not what we think and moving forward might also be found in staying still.
This article is a work in progress with more being added over time.What does it Mean and
Why do We Care?
All Planets are ALWAYS moving forward but from the Earth’s perspective they appear to reverse direction (astrologically this is called a retrograde) and from the Earth we see the planet moving back across the same stars it just passed. On Earth this effect is felt and has been noted over eons of time.
.
What is the intent of a Planetary Retrograde?
The retrograde time of any planet could be considered a time for stepping back for the purpose of visioning in ways that are connected to the archetypal energy of that planet. It is about planting seeds of intention for forward movement when the planet goes direct.
From this perspective then we can see retrograde planets provide a space for deeper inner reflection designed to help us move forward with the time is optimal.
When ALL the planets are moving forward the momentum is in a forward direction creating a full speed ahead momentum with whatever we are dreaming into or where we are focusing our attention. This isn’t good or bad, but rather is about what we choose to do with it.
Having a well thoughtout intention to move forward at this time helps us take advantage of the forward momentum acting on what feels most alive and on purpose for the best results possible.
The Greater Collective Intent we Can Energize
If we imagine all the planets are moving forward together and there energy is collaborative and constructive, we can also imagine it is a time when (if we choose it) we can move forward together on planet Earth, ideally with an intention that benefits all life.
The Shadow
With all planets moving forward there is very little that encourages us to slow down and reflect on what is happening. This means a shadow experience of a full speed ahead time can be challenging and may even result in reckless choices and results.
So while this is a good time to take advantage of the forward momentum it is also wise to consider what feels most alive and on purpose and then wisely engage that for the best results possible.
Where the Alchemical Astrology Perspective on this Originated
.
From 2007 to 2019, Daniel Giamario and I did monthly member calls for the Shamanic Astrology Mystery School. These calls were an amazing way to go deeper into the cycles and seasons occurring each month.
In November 2008, during our monthly call, we noticed that not one planet was retrograde in the upcoming month, all the planets were moving forward for over a month. At that time we didn’t know how often this happened and had never even considered what it might mean. We began to contemplate what it would mean for the coming month and also what it would mean if a person was born with all planets moving forward?
Much more research and direct experience is needed to adequately answer these questions, however, what follows is a beginning look at when the planets move forward from 2000 to 2025. Some years the timing is brief, other years the planets are never all moving forward at the same time. Stay tuned for updates to this content.

Presidents Inaugrated with All Planets Moving Forward
So far in the historical record NOT one President has ever served another term after being inaugurated with All Planets Direct. This is true for those serving their first term. Some were in their second term and wouldn’t have the possibility of serving another term due to the two term limit as described in the 22nd amendment ratified by Congress on February 27, 1951, limiting an elected president to two terms in office, or a total of eight years.
(Note: Franklin Rosevelt is the only president who served more than two terms before the two term limit was put into place)
Going back to 1900 there are only two presidential inaugurations that took place with all the planets moving forward. The first was the second inauguration of Ronald Reagan followed by the second inauguration of Bill Clinton. Trump was the first president in over 100 years to be inaugurated in his first term with all planets direct and he did not get re-elected in 2020.
05th President James Monroe 2nd Term, Inauguration Mar 5, 1821 (this was before term limits were ratified by congress on Feb 27, 1951)
09th President William Henry Harrison, Inauguration Mar 4, 1841. Died a month later on April 4 1841 only serving one month. His wife Anna was too ill to join him in Washington, so daughter-in-law served First Lady function. Harrison died before his wife was due to arrive in May. He was president for 32 days.
NOTE: He was also the first president to die in a Jupiter Saturn conjunction linked with the Tecumseh Curse, having been the military Major General that led the battle of the Thames responsible for the death of the Native American leader Tecumseh. His brother is said to have set a curse that has affected presidents elected every 20 years.
11th President James Polk, Inauguration March 4, 1845. Was the first inauguration to be covered by Telegraph and first to be illustrated in the London Times (served only one term)
14th President Franklin Pierce, Inauguration March 4, 1853 (served one term). He was also born with All Natal Planets Direct. He recited his inaugural speech from Memory. His Vice President died shortly after his inauguration and the VP office was left vacant for the duration of Pierce’s presidency.
40th President Ronald Reagan 2nd term inauguration was January 21, 1985. Reagan spent 15.5 million of tax payers money on his second inauguration ceremony earning him the Golden Fleece award for wasting tax payers money.
42nd President Bill Clinton 2nd term inauguration was January 20, 1997 also Born with All Planets Direct. This was the first Presidential Inauguration streamed live on the Internet and the last inauguration of the 20th century. He was impeached by congress December 19, 1998 for “high crimes and misdemeanors” including lying under oath and obstruction of justice. He was acquitted by the Senate on Feb 12, 1999 completing his term of office.
45th President Donald Trump January 20, 2017. He was impeached by Congress on December 18, 2019 on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. He was acquitted by the Senate February 5, 2020. In November 2020, Trump lost re-election but contested the results and incited an insurrection on January 6, 2021. He was not inaugurated on January 20, 2021 and was impeached for a second time by the House of Representative before leaving office though was acquitted by the Senate. He is the first president ever to be impeached twice.
The pattern of no president being inaugurated for another term remains intact.
46th President Joe Biden was inaugurated on January 20, 2021 when all the planets were direct. Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race in July 2024 so will not serve a second term as president keeping this pattern alive.
NOTE: While I did my own research for this article, Wave Rayne (who was on the 2008 Shamanic Astrology Mystery School member’s call) also did an article on the presidents and all planets direct by birth and inauguration along with other articles she has written about this subject. I imagine there are others who have researched the significant timing of all the planets moving forward (a.k.a. in direct motion – meaning none of these planets are in retrograde motion) and are writing about or have written about what they have found – as this is a rich area of research with more to discover.
Hi Cayelin,
Nice additional research on the Presidents and Inauguration Charts with APDM. It’s great to witness your insights. I am currently making videos to explain how I see the Solar System as a unified whole and also about the last Inauguration Chart.
I totally miss all the night sky teachings, and sometimes it’s so sad I have nowhere to go to listen and see the night sky laid out in the knowledgable way I learned from Daniel. I was so completely into it and my best memory of all time I think is from doing the Vision Quest in Nevada and seeing a stampede of wild horses while watching 6 constellations move across the sky all night long. Unbelievable. All is well, Wave Rayne
Hi Cayelin
you say that when all planets are direct: ” it is a time for Full Speed Ahead into whatever we are creating or desiring to create.” You then say: “Not one President ever served another term after being inaugurated with All Planets Direct”. You even say that some of these presidents died 1 month after inauguration. Was it good for these presidents to go forward and accept the office? Is it good to go forward when all planets are direct? Do you mean that the action that we take when all the planets are direct, does not last? Are the actions that we make, when all planets are forward, fruitful? Do you have other examples about fruitful actions that took place when all the planets were direct?
Hi Laure, You ask really good questions. Only one president died one month after being inaugurated with all the planets moving forward, William Harrison and he also is noted as the first president to die in office around a Jupiter Saturn conjunction – stay tuned for more on this coming soon. I did feel that the pattern of no additional terms of office for any president in the last 242+ years was worth noting and paying attention too.
I also mention in the article there is a shadow side to All the Planets Moving Forward at Full Speed Ahead saying there is very little that inspires us to slow down and reflect on what is happening. In this case full speed ahead may be challenging and the direction unpredictable. However, if taking the time to consider your choices for moving forward and doing so wisely – it does feel like this is a time for moving forward in a good way.
I am not drawing conclusions that actions taken during this time do not last. I have had very fruitful actions that have lasted over time when I look at these times in my life. I have also had experiences where things didn’t work out but that was in hindsight. I have found if the actions I took were not properly planned then the energy was not sustainable. Maybe others have seen the same thing?
So clearly more research and insight is needed to fully understand what is going on here. Hope that helps?
