Notes: Back in my early college days, I remember I used to be highly in favor of the movement discovering Roen Horn, Gennady Stoyanov ii, Aubrey De Grey & Zoltan Istvan who I managed to get onto Dave Rubin's show during the 2016 elections. An atheist at the time, I looked forward to the advances in life extention technology but over time that desire was tempered with the realization that the drive & interest for self preservation was no longer there. I need not linger on this point but for anyone reading this I am most certainly NOT suicidal should you ever discover that to be evidence to the contrary I strong suggest you question the official narrative. For the reading, I took the Sun opposing Uranus. Uranus is all about science, technology, progress & innovation a perfect theme to encapsulate the idea of transhumanism.

Ian: "what do you think these riddles mean as a whole? Explain this detailed summary of events."
Chatgpt o4 mini: "These riddles outline a political movement centered on deploying advanced science and technology to overcome the biological limits of aging and disease. Its adherents view the cellular and molecular breakdown that leads to sickness and death as obstacles to be eradicated rather than accepted. They champion massive investments in research—from genetic therapies and regenerative medicine to nanotechnology and AI-driven drug discovery—with the goal of halting or reversing degeneration. For them, growing old and succumbing to chronic illness is not an inevitable fate but a solvable engineering challenge, and delaying or preventing these processes represents the highest humanitarian priority. At the same time, this vision invites fierce criticism from skeptics who see it as quixotic or hubristic. Detractors argue that focusing relentlessly on life extension risks neglecting pressing social needs, and that the promise of radical longevity could exacerbate inequality if only the wealthy can afford such cures. Yet the transhumanist camp remains undeterred, framing opposition—from political conservatives to casual naysayers—as a failure to grasp the moral imperative of radically improving human healthspan. In their view, embracing these emerging technologies is not just about adding years to life but about empowering individuals to pursue their fullest potential without the looming threat of age-related decline."
