GAVIN NEWSOM: THE REASON CALIFORNIA CAUGHT ON FIRE

"Only You Can Prevent Forest Fires," Smokey the Bear

Remember Smokey the Bear saying, “Only you can prevent forest fires.” I do. It was on television all the time when I was growing up. Maybe in the Age of Aquarius, it’s time to take another look at that. Our attention has obviously drifted…

January 8, 2019, Gavin Newsom’s first full day in office, he declared war on wildfires. January 8, 2024 California had the worst fire in its existence and the reason partly was Newsom’s fuel reduction failed to materialize. He turned what could have been manageable fires into infernos. Trump called him out on his failed water policies and forest management months ago on Joe Rogan. Trump and Rogan agreed that getting rid of the dead fall would help prevent forest fires which includes fuel breaks in shrublands and cutting back foliage along major routes. That work that also includes removal of hazardous dead trees, vegetation clearing, and community defensible spaces. Also the creation of ingress and egress corridors.

In 2019 in California 64,000 acres were treated. In 2020, it was 32,000. What is needed according to Michael Wara, Director of the Climate & Energy Policy Program at Stanford University’s Woods Institute for the Environment, in 2021, it should be 1,000,000 acres. “That’s the scale where you start to achieve… fewer structures lost.” Newsom obviously treated a small fraction of that amount. You would think he’s clearing out the forest floors himself.

Newsom has also been dumping billions of gallons of water from the Klamath River into the Pacific Ocean. “Hundreds of billions of dollars… for the sake of a tiny fish, there is no water in the fire hydrants,” Trump declared. And while that may be a bit of hyperbole, a lot of people who lost their homes would like clarification.

Here’s who Gavin Newsom is: His Sun is in Libra. His Moon is in the scary sign of Capricorn. These are people that definitely deliver less than they promise be it a relationship or a job. All talk. No results. You will always, 100% of the time, be disappointed in these people. Mercury in Scorpio. Venus and rising is Virgo. And his Mar is Sagittarius.

Gavin has been the lucky recipient of Jupiter moving out of sign and landing on one of his natal planets, Venus. So a 12-year Jupiter ensued — and the reason I thought he might be the Democratic candidate for president. It’s the xtrological equivalent of winning the lottery. But, it’s over. Today. Sadly the rule is if he doesn’t have a negative aspect, the Jupiter aspect will keep going. There is a minor angle, an inconjunct, to Saturn. That may not stop his good fortune. However six years from now exactly, his predictive Sun will conjunct natal Mars and a year later the Sun will square Pluto. His reckoning is coming. Just not soon enough.

I heard someone today say Rick Caruso for governor. I don’t know how Karen Bass beat him for Mayor of Los Angeles because everyone I knew voted Caruso, but maybe he is meant to be governor in 2026. How can you prevent forest fires? Vote Newsom out!
