It
seems that world events during June are primarily going to
be influenced by Neptune-Jupiter, Neptune-Uranus and
Pluto-Ketu oppositions along with the detrimental squares of Mars
with the lunar nodes, and Uranus-Mars conjunction. As a result, while
Neptune-Jupiter opposition provides support for world stability and
peace, violent and terrorist
activities around most part of the world, especially in the Middle-East, Western
Europe, and United States will be the manifestation of Pluto-Ketu opposition, Rahu/Ketu-Mars squares, and Uranus-Mars
conjunction.
In
the first week of the month President Bush flew to Middle East for
formal declaration of "Road Map" for peace between Israel
and Palestine. However, despite the positive beginning
violence and suicide bombing continues.
The planetary
configurations that will
influence world events in June are summarized below:
Direct
Opposition: Jupiter-Neptune; Ninefold Oppositions: Pluto-Ketu,
Neptune-Uranus
Trines:
Saturn-Mars, Pluto-Jupiter,Uranus-Saturn; Ninefold Trine: Saturn-Ketu,
Neptune-Rahu, Uranus-Ketu, Rahu-Jupiter
Squares:
Rahu/Ketu-Mars
Ninefold
Sextiles: Saturn-Rahu, Pluto-Saturn
Direct
Conjunction: Uranus-Mars; Ninefold Conjunctions: Pluto-Rahu,
Uranus-Saturn
The countries that
are likely to make headline news are: United States, Russia, China, Western
Europe, Israel and Palestine, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, and Middle eastern countries including
Iraq
President Bush and his administration:
It
seems that the slow and long term
influence of Pluto transiting directly opposite President
Bush's natal Uranus and the lunar node Rahu has been creating
anxieties and frustrations for the administration, and despite
intensive efforts that have been underway the administration has yet to find weapons of mass destruction in
Iraq and prove a link
between the Saddam Hussein's regime and al-Qaeda. Also, recent rise in
suspected Al-Qaeda activities that manifested into simultaneous suicidal
bombings in the compounds (where mostly westerners live) in Saudi Arabia, and other places like Casa Blanca have
put added pressure on the administration to deal with increased
terrorism despite their expectation of decreased terrorist activities against USA
due to Iraq war.
Recently
Pentagon (May 30) has admitted that so far, despite their very
frustrating and laborious efforts to find the Weapons of Mass
Destructions in Iraq, they have not found anything that would back
the administration's claim and the sole reason to go to war.
Defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld now seems to suggest that Iraq
probably destroyed the chemical and biological WMD before the war
began. If administration doesn't find WMD it will have
hard time maintaining its credibility in future when dealing with
international matters. Also, British Prime Minister Tony Blair has
already facing severe criticism in Britain, and particularly with
in his own party for going to war based on false
intelligence.
For
Bush administration June 11-14, and June 21-26 may prove to be trying
periods. Although on going efforts of building Iraq
may seem to indicate that progress is being made, the upheaval against US arm
forces that are occupying (to stabilize) the region by frustrated as
well as fanatic local Iraqis is likely to take place during this
month, especially during the second and the fourth week.
Almost daily incident of killing of
Americans in Iraq by Saddam loyalist (?) was more pronounced
during the second and the forth week of the month.
For President Bush, personally the good news is his ninefold
Saturn leaves ascendant of his ninefold progressive chart on June
7 to enter the second house. And since he is being influenced by Saturn's cycle he can expect
some relief in areas of personal health and safety after June 7
(Until June 7, he should take care of his health and personal
safety). However, Mars's entry in sidereal Aquarius (his fourth house
of his ninefold chart) and conjunction with Uranus (especially
during June 21-26) means he is very likely to face new crisis (domestic as well as
international) that deal (most likely) with terrorist activities
against US interest at home (fourth house) and abroad. In general,
it seems President will have his hands full dealing with rising
terrorism against United States during this month.
The
Country:
Neptune-Uranus
ninefold opposition seems to indicate that subtle changes are very
likely to take place in US politics and social life from now
through mid-August. These changes are likely to manifest
themselves with painful drastic and abrupt changes in social and
political environment on a short term basi. But in the long run
they will turn out to be positive for the country.
The
most of June, especially during June 21-26, is a period of anxiety
for most of the country. Relationships
between United States and Russia, and United States and China will likely
to stay either neutral or get worse (latter's more likely). Natural as well as manmade calamities
will be on rise during this period. While for the Republican Party
The first two weeks are difficult and challenging to counteract
their opponent's charges, the third week of June is certainly not
good for democrats as they would have tough time in maintaining an
unified voice of the party due to political warfare among the
democratic presidential hopefuls.

replied:
"The
dates and how trouble has started for the Bush Clan and the news
leaks...also the Democrats caving in to the Republicans on the
third week"
·
Russia: It's likely that Russia may
experience
a political or social crisis during the last two weeks. The relationship with USA (particularly with Bush administration)
is likely to stay as it has been (neutral) if not get worse. In
domestic affairs some key covert operations are likely to be
failed and exposed.
·
Europe: The period to watch is when Mars
squares with the lunar nodes (June 11-14). Violence and
terrorism during this period is more likely. Other than that,
relatively, month doesn't look too bad for the continent.
·
China,
Japan and Pacific-rim Countries: Except for the third week of June
the month looks to be fine for China. During the third week the
region's economy is likely suffer due to either domestic or
international crisis.
·
Religion:
The world religions are likely to come under pressure for reforms.
Those religious
leaders, who are willing to be open minded and ready to listen and act on new
and fresh ideas, are the ones that going to be responsible to transform our
religious world to a new level. Others are going to fade away with time. In addition, world religions in general,
and religious leaders in particular, may experience themselves having to go
through crisis that demand changes. In other words, the orthodox religious
leaders may come under social and moral pressures to change the way they handle
their responsibilities.
The
arrest of the Phoenix Bishop who was involved in the hit and run
auto accident killing a person occurred during this month of June
(third week). It was certainly alarming and very irresponsible of
him to see him defend his act that he thought it was an animal who
got hit by his car and smashed into his car windshield.
·
Natural and
Man-made Calamities:
More or less the entire month is likely to be very susceptible for
these calamities to occur all around the world. The violence and
terrorism related activities are more likely to occur during June
11-14 and June 21-26 mostly in Israel-Palestine area and also
against US (embassies and consulates) interests abroad.
Besides
on going violence in the Middle-East and Iraq there were several
incidents (Chicago Fire, Hurricanes in Tennessee, Oklahoma,
Missouri, Wisconsin; Flooding in several areas) that seem to
support the above predictions.
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, and equally intensive droughts; and thunderstorms, earthquakes, air
crashes
and fires.
