As
we enter in April, Neptune-Uranus ninefold opposition
which
began on March 14 will continue to provide fuel for friction (at
least until April 10) between conservatives and liberals in
the United States.
The Pluto-Rahu ninefold opposition (April 8-23) will likely
to accelerate terrorist activities (including those originated by
Al-Qaida organization) not just only in the Middle East attacking
western interests (particularly those of US and its allies) but also
in Europe and Asia. During the same time a new crisis in Europe and
the occurrences of natural and man-made calamities all around the
world are very likely. However, on a positive note, terrorist
may come under pressure and some of them are likely to be captured during April 16 -
May 9 period.
For science and
technology until at least up to April 10 is a very favorable
period. Acceleration in research activities resulting in
innovations and discoveries in modern medicine and biotechnology
will continue to take place. Innovations in other fields such as high-tech
and information
technology will also make the headlines.
The countries that
are likely to make headline news are: United States, major
European countries, Iraq, Middle Eastern countries including Israel and
Palestine, and Russia.
President Bush and his administration:
For
President Bush during April
Saturn will be squaring his natal Neptune at least until April
15 and the lunar nodes will be squaring natal Pluto from the
last week of the month to the first couple of weeks in May.
As a result, I expect a lot of smoke and mirror type of activities
coming out of Bush White House in defending their position against
the charges brought up by Mr. Clarke as well as on going Iraq
crisis. There may be some changes occurring in the existing White
House cabinet during the same time. But... it's the three
week period beginning the last week of April ..that will prove to be very
crucial for the President. Personally, it's certainly going to be
extremely frustrating for him as the likelihood of some of his
very close associates deserting him or forced to leave him becomes
high.
In addition, some of the key republican leaders are likely to be
disappointed with his performance and more importantly with his stubbornness.
The
Country:
For
the country in general, April is not that bad a month. April 7-19 is
really positive period for the country. Positive news with respect
to terrorism related activities are likely after April 16.
However, a possibility of either man-made or natural calamity does
exist during April 8-23.
For
the Democratic Party April 7-19 is a favorable period to score
some political gains over its rival Republic Party. During the
same time the party may go through a surprise transformation (I
can't really predict what exactly that transformation will be) to
enhance its position for the upcoming presidential election. For the Republic
Party the third week is positive but the last week indicates frustration.
·
Russia:
April
24 through May 2 will certainly be a challenging week for the
Putin administration. More covert activities are likely to
be on rise. However, over all, the country will do just fine.
·
Europe: April 8 through 23 is not
positive for the continent as a major shift in political or in
social arena is very likely to happen causing an irreversible change in
European politics. It may have to do with violence or fighting
against terrorism.
·
Religion:
Religions or religious leaders will come under social scrutiny and
political pressure as traditional norms will be challenged by a new
wave of living demanding more individual freedom and less dogmatic
pressure.
·
Natural and
Man-made Calamities:
April 8-23 is likely to filled with events related to both
man-made and natural calamities.
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.
