Lights Out in America

In this article Rafia Zakaria expressed her take on the current situation of America
after Donald Trump became the President of United States of America with an
planetary event which is very rare, in which the moons shadow will completely
obscure the light of the sun for several minutes in the middle of the day. The skies
will suddenly darken and stars will be visible and for several minutes a good portion
of the North American continent will be denied the light of the sun.

This event of total solar eclipse in the United States of America is being related with
the happening of the day of Judgment or a sign of the impending apocalypse that
some astrologers think has already begun and the world is gradually moving towards
a final destruction. Prominent among the soothsayers are astrologers who claim to
have constructed detailed astrological charts based on Trumps exact date and time
of birth along with Americas own birth chart. These believers in end-times and
apocalyptic predictions are not just ordinary Americans, the readers of tabloids and
prophecy sites. Steve Bannon, one of Donald Trumps most controversial advisers,
has long held the belief that the current age is an apocalyptic one and that the end
of the world is near and destruction imminent.

With America, the worlds lone superpower, in this time of hardship and controversy
on various new laws and decisions taken by Trump administration, it is perhaps no
surprise that a total eclipse in America is an occasion for many to forecast the
eclipsing of America as a world power, the beginning of a descent, the start of
something bad. Astrologers and others in the business of producing ominous
prophecies around unusual events are experts in taking vague truths and then
extrapolating other events from them.

Though this eclipse will not be visible in Pakistan and no such impacts are being
predicted for us though this eclipse or its relation to US destruction or the turmoil of
Trump presidency, ominous times come with few guarantees, of course, and this
moment involved the odd confluence of astrology and foreign policy. If there is
regime change in the US, the rest of the worlds financial markets and foreign aid
coffers are likely to see immediate and ongoing impact. If, as the astrological
forecast portends, some literal destruction initiated by the US does occur, then the
consequences will have to be borne by Pakistan as well.

The time of the end of the world is really very disturbing and upsetting for the entire
world including Pakistan but as far as the disturbance of President Trump presidency
and administration is concerned, somewhat comforting for Pakistanis to watch from
a distance, to consider the possibilities and laugh at the inanities. For once,
predictions of the end of days, of annihilation and destruction, do not involve the
near and close, but the very, very far away.
