The
major planetary configurations that will be responsible
for global events in January are: vicious Pluto-Uranus (Jan 11 - Feb 8) and
Saturn-Jupiter (Jan 8 - Feb 12) ninefold squares, and
Pluto-Rahu (Jan 3 -10) and Pluto-Jupiter (Jan 24-30) auspicious
ninefold trines. While the squares will continue to manifest
themselves in challenges of counteracting violence and terrorism,
and dealing with manmade and natural
calamities, the auspicious trines will be responsible to maintain
peace and hope all around the world including the world economical
progress. Saturn-Jupiter square may become responsible for religious
crisis, especially in Europe.
In general, while the
first week of the month looks to be positive the rest of the month
looks to be mired with events of violence and bombings in Iraq, Palestine
and Israel area. Peace efforts will be on hold and economic
progress is likely to be stalled. Also, US interests both at home
and abroad are likely to be targeted by terrorists. Pakistan's
President should take extra precaution about his safety during the
first week of January.
The countries that
are likely to make headline news are: United States, Iraq, and Middle Eastern countries including Israel and Palestine.
President Bush and his administration:
Pluto's
transit opposing the natal lunar node Rahu will likely to bring
changes in Bush administration policies. Certainly the surrounding
around the President (advisors and cabinet ministers) is most likely to be
changed. Jupiter's square with natal Uranus and lunar nodes
during the first two weeks of January will likely to make him face
new challenges for his presidential campaign, domestic issues, and
national security matters.
The
Country:
Pluto-Uranus
square will certainly change the political landscape for both
parties. The democratic party will be faced with serious
challenges with regard to presidential election as the primaries
approach. There will be a significant shift in people's perception
about country's future. Social, political, and economical norms
are likely to be threatened requiring a change, a transformation,
to a new level.
·
Russia:
The
first and the last week seems very positive for the country, especially
for the Putin
administration. Economic progress will accelerate. The social
uprising in neighboring countries are likely to diminish.
·
Europe: Saturn-Jupiter square is likely
to leave its mark with respect to religious activities in Europe.
The last week of the month seems favorable for the continent from
social as well as economic progress standpoint.
·
Religion:
Saturn-Jupiter ninefold square will create new challenges and
contraversies that
religious authorities must face and come up with new solutions.
·
Natural and
Man-made Calamities:
The first few days of the month are likely to witness fire related
accidents (both manmade and natural). The period of Jan 11
through Feb 12 will 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.
