September
was dominated with the news of terrorist attack on the world trade
center towers and the pentagon building. The influence, and perhaps
the anxiety and uncertainty of future caused by that event is going
to continue at least through October 11. United States should
be extra careful to protect the civilians from further terrorist
attacks, and also in dealing with the world in relation to this
crisis. In addition, the retrograde Mercury (October 2-23) may
hinder or slow down the process of bringing the terrorist to
justice.
The
Afghanistan bombing reached it's successful conclusion only after
October 11. The outbreak of Anthrax attack began in the first/second
week of the month and continued through the rest of the month.
The
major planetary configurations that are likely to be dominant during
October are: Uranus-Rahu/Ketu ninefold squares (till October 11),
Neptune-Pluto and Rahu-Jupiter ninefold trines (till October 8),Uranus-Saturn
sextile (October 17-31), and Pluto-Saturn direct as well as the
ninefold opposition (October 18 - Nov 4). The configurations that
are the ninefold squares and oppositions are likely to be responsible for
man-made and natural accidents that cause instability, and the ones
that are trines and sextile will nullify the negative
effect caused by the ninefold squares and oppositions by providing favorable and positive energy for world
stability.
Due
to strong Uranus-Rahu/Ketu ninefold squares violence and terrorism
activities can not be ruled out at least until October 11. Also for
the United States, until that time there will not be a clear
direction and conclusive handling with regard to the war against
terrorism. If there is any break is anticipated, expect it
after October 11. The friction between the Israelis and Palestinians will
again dominate the news during the last week (Oct 28-Nov 4) of the
month.
Pluto-Neptune ninefold trine is likely to be very positive for the rate of new discoveries and
innovations in biotech as well as in the high tech areas. Countries like Russia and China are likely to
enjoy a positive and favorable period at least during the first
three weeks of the month. The religious authorities all around the
world, in general, are likely to experience some sudden events that
could influence their long term agenda.
President
Bush's meeting with Chinese president had certainly helped China in
mending negatives and improve on future relations with the USA.
-
United
States: For Bush
administration, the first two weeks of October will be extremely
hectic and frustrating. However, the administration is likely to
be rewarded with a very positive break in this war on terrorism
matter during October 17-31 period.
Unless
it's kept from public from security reason (in which case we'll
know it sometimes in future) I think I failed in predicting the
likelihood of a positive break for the Bush administration.
·
Russia: In general, except for the last week, the month
looks very positive for Russia to make some political gains in
international affairs. Dealings with USA will yield positive results
for Russia in the latter half of the month.
I
haven't kept up with the news from Russia....anybody has any
comments?
·
China, Hong Kong, and
Pacific-rim countries: For China, the first two
weeks of October are positive. During the last week,
however, China should be more careful in dealing with her neighbor
countries as well as with the international matters.
Meeting
with President Bush in the second and the third week of the month
Chinese President had certainly improved the relations with the
USA.
·
Europe: October, in general, may prove to
be a good month for Europe. The dealings with the USA may become
difficult in certain areas.
·
Religion: Saturn-Jupiter ninefold square
(Oct 7-14) is not good for world religions. A probability of a
religious tragic event is high. However, the last week of the
month looks promising for surge in religious activities bringing
out some very positive results.
·
Natural and
Man-made Calamities: Except
for October 14-28 period the month is going to be filled with events that have
to deal with both man-made and natural calamities. October 1-11 is
very negative for the United States, and to some extent both the continents of
America. October 28 through November 4 is bad for the entire
world, particularly for the Middle East countries and Russia.
While
man-made calamities may manifest themselves in terrorism, unrest,
violence, and accidents, the natural calamities are likely to
include extreme weather conditions such as severe cold winters in
the northern hemisphere, and equally intensive droughts in the
southern hemisphere; and thunderstorms, earthquakes, air crashes
and fires.
Comments on the last month's World Financial Markets
predictions
In
October the world financial markets are likely to trade in a narrow range with a
slight bullish bias. In general, the planetary configurations that are going to
affect the
financial markets are: Pluto-Saturn ninefold opposition, Rahu/Ketu-Uranus
ninefold squares. These configurations are likely to cause the markets to stay
bearish. However, the Neptune-Pluto and Rahu-Jupiter trines and the Uranus-Saturn sextile will provide favorable atmosphere for the world financial
markets to rise. Thus, the net result is very likely to be a very mixed world financial market.
It must be noted that the basis for the following predictions
mainly includes the influence of the planets Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars along
with the slower moving modern planets Uranus, Neptune,
and Pluto. For the ninefold analysis, the fast
moving planets like Mercury, Venus, Sun, and Moon can also influence the outcome
of the world markets. However, these influences, although usually insignificant,
are difficult to account for as the analysis then becomes too complex to make
market predictions. Therefore, should it
become necessary to account for the influence of fast moving planets the timely advanced updates whenever
appropriate will be provided.

For
October, haven't kept up with the day to day market activities around the
world. However for the month of October the world financial markets made
some gains (ranging from 3 to 7 percents).
