Every year our sun conjoins the star Sirius, at 13.5 degrees Cancer, during the first week in July; that is, as seen from the earth, the sun lies in front of Sirius which lies at the same celestial longitude as the astrological sign of Cancer in the sky. Astrologically, a conjunction is the strongest aspect celestial bodies can have.
The dog days of summer derive their name from the fact that the ancients associated the extreme heat of summer (in the northern hemisphere) with the magnanimous conjunction of our Sun and Sirius. That is, those who could conceptualize the geometry necessary to understand astronomy and celestial mechanics. It’s not every one’s cup of tea.
If there exists an actual guiding intelligence to Earth’s evolution, it most certainly can be associated with Sirius. And the United States, with its Sun conjunct Sirius, represents, therefore, the clearest channel for this extra-human agency to manifest its will, whatever that may be.

So Juno is going to Jupiter, and that relates to Sirius conjunction with the Sun how, exactly?

On the 4th of July, the Juno probe has to begin a 35 minute orbital manoeuvre that takes it out of a slingshot orbit to Jupiter and into a stable orbit around Jupiter that goes as close as 3500km above the clouds.
This date coincides with Earth Sun and Sirius lining up. Astrologers call this "dog days" as it's a time of extreme tension due to the hot weather. For the scientists who have been on the project for years, it is going to be a tense time. Their baby is hundreds of millions of miles away from Earth.
False.
the sun lies in front of Sirius
Right. Astronomy is a science. You have placed your thread in a science forum. It belongs in a superstition forum.
So, you are free to keep your astronomical believes, just have in mind that astronomy is not astrology at all.
And one thing more, all top responsible guys in NASA are very well educated in astrology and numerology, nevermind it is kept very well hidden, for obvious reasons.

Do you tell you geese they can fly over the fence, ofc. you don't.

You are privy to this information, how?
Astrology is not scientific research.
Scientists do it mostly when they want to find the answer of something unknown. Its called research.
Because your thread is exclusively about astrology. It has nothing to do with the Juno probe. It belongs in a superstition forum. The thing is, in science forums it is expected that someone provide evidence to support their claims.
And why not to put a topic like this in space exploration forum, am I insulting somebody's intelligence with my "unscientific" rant, or is about your private disagreement with me? I tried to be respectful to your post, why you start biting?
And those reasons are they know that numerology is silly, and astrology has nothing to do with them.
And you know this how?
And yet, you cite not a word of it. Instead you cite superstitious nonsense.
The main article is solely about Juno, there is full science there.
Astronomy demonstrates that the Sun is not in front of Sirius.
That is, those who could conceptualize the geometry necessary to understand astronomy and celestial mechanics. It’s not every one’s cup of tea.
