I was watching a YouTube video titled Eclipses, Red Cows And The Apocalypse by World Astrology Report which is quite a good channel for Mundane Astrology news. The coming solar eclipse will occur at 1:20am, Jakarta time, on April 9th 2024. Figure 1 shows a chart drawn up for that moment in Jakarta. The conjunction of Sun and Moon will occur in 19°23' of Aries.

The video makes reference to NASA's eclipse website that features two interesting charts showing the path of the forthcoming eclipse across North America as well as the path of the previous annular eclipse that occurred on October 14th 2023. The paths intersect at San Antonio in Texas. See Figures 2 and 3. Saint Anthony of Padua was Saint Francis of Assisi's most famous follower. For more information follow this Wikipedia link.

The video makes the point that the five red heifers, that are currently in Israel and due to be sacrificed at Passover on the Mount of Olives within sight of the Al Aqsa mosque, came from Texas. The Passover holiday begins before sundown on Monday, April 22, 2024, and ends after nightfall on April 30, 2024. The Hamas attack on Israel began on October 7th 2023, a week before the annular eclipse.
The presenter in the video sees the conjunction of Mars and Saturn in Pisces and Jupiter and Uranus in Taurus at the time of the eclipse to be a potential portent of a holy war which would certainly break out if any attempt was made to demolish the Al Aqsa mosque. It can be noted that Chiron is in 19°24' of Aries at the time of the eclipse. See Figure 4 detail.

Texas is also currently ground zero for the entry of illegal immigrants into the United States so April promises to be an interesting month. The eclipse will last for about two and a half hours and the presenter in the video makes reference to Ptolemy who stated that effects of an eclipse can be felt for an amount of time in years equivalent to the eclipse's duration in hours. Thus the effects may be felt for up to two and half years afterwards which take us into late 2027. On April 21st, Jupiter and Uranus will be exactly conjunct in around 21°40' of Taurus.
