Comments on Global Predictions for the last month
During
August several important planetary configurations, both desirable and
not-so-desirable, are going to shape world events. While the prominent
desirable configurations include a spiritual Ketu-Jupiter conjunction (and
Rahu-Jupiter opposition), auspicious Neptune-Jupiter and beneficial Neptune-Ketu
trines, the undesirable events will be caused by the dangerous Pluto-Saturn
ninefold opposition, the fatal Uranus-Saturn and Pluto-Saturn ninefold
quincunxes, and the deadly ninefold squares of Saturn with the lunar nodes.
Because there are overlaps between these desirable and undesirable planetary
influences there will be periods during which both good as well as unwanted
events can simultaneously occur . The desirable events include positive
religious and spiritual influence, reports of tremendous advances in
scientific and technical fields through new innovations, discoveries, and
inventions, and expansion of world economies. Violence, suicide bombings,
terrorism, political friction between prominent countries due to shift in
their ideologies, and natural calamities such as hurricanes, typhoons,
flooding and earthquakes will be the results of manifestation of undesirable
planetary influences.
Hurricane
Katrina
The countries that are likely
to make headline news are: USA, Europe (Briton, Italy, and perhaps one
of the eastern European countries), Russia, China, Iraq, and Middle Eastern
countries including Israel and Palestine.
President Bush and his administration:
The
direct opposition of Uranus with his natal Mars will certainly
reflect in his domestic political challenges that president Bush
will be facing at least until August 27.
In addition the the
quincunx aspect of Uranus with his natal Mercury will likely to
manifest in a political snafu or a drastic loss of his
credibility with American people. An opposition of lunar
node Rahu with his natal Moon will create communication problems
within the white house. A propagation of misunderstanding or
covering up of lies will be other possible symptoms.
Cindy
Sheehan, a mother of a son killed in Iraq, has been protesting
against Iraq war outside Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas.
Her request to have one hour meeting with President has yet to
be fulfilled.
Aug
27: Bush braces U.S. for sacrifice as protesters gather
On
a positive note, Pluto's trine with his natal Venus will help
him maintain his focus on his political agenda. He is
likely to have his way on certain issues. Also, during the
second half of the month Jupiter will transit his natal Moon
practically assuring him a political victory (approval of his
supreme court nominee by senate and passing of pending
legislative issues or bills).
The
Country:
The
presence of Neptune-Uranus ninefold quincunx during the entire
month of August and Rahu-Jupiter opposition (Aug 14 - 22) will
be responsible for continued debate on role of religion at work
place and controversial morality issues---stem
cells research, separation of church and government, etc.,
Neptune-Saturn (Aug 28 - Sept 1) and Saturn-Rahu and Ketu (Aug
28 - 31) ninefold squares and Uranus-Saturn (Aug 7-10) and
Pluto-Saturn (Aug 24-28) quincunxes will be the cause for
manifestation of violence, terrorism, and a distinct friction
between liberals and conservatives on issues ranging from Iraq
war to stem cells during the second and the last week of the
month and media deception especially during the second and the
last week of the month. The relationships between USA and
Russia, and USA and China will continue to be challenging, and
as a result, covert activities across the globe will continue to
be on rise.
For
the Republic party the second and the last week will certainly
prove to be challenging in dealing with both domestic and
international issues. In addition, a friction between top party
leaders and the Bush administration due to serious disagreement
on important political issues is also likely during the same
period.
Aug
14: Senator
Chuck Hagel's bold disagreement with Bush administration on
failures of Iraq war were widely echoed in media.
While
the democrats are likely to enjoy at least the second and the
last week of the month the party is likely to go through a
serious transformation during the middle part of the month.
·
Russia:
Although
the third week of the month is positive for Russia, sweeping
political changes requiring to handle general social unrest and
negative perception of the Putin administration are likely to
occur during the last two weeks of the month. The
relationship with the USA will continue to remain sour, and may
become worse in the second half of the month. Covert
activities will be on rise and media deception will be rampant
during the entire month.
·
Europe:
In general, the second half of the month will be filled with
news reflecting social and political anxieties and economic
worries. During the second week friction with USA (Bush
administration) is likely. During August 1-3 and August 24-31
possibilities of natural calamity, suicide bombings or violence
are likely.
Aug
24: Extreme weather conditions in Europe
Aug
26: Fire kills 17 in Paris building housing immigrants
·
China,
Japan, and Pacific-rim countries:
The first and the last two weeks of the month are not positive
for China. However, on the economic front China will
continue to march with impressive growth. Friction with USA will
be on rise during the last week of the month. Japanese
economy is likely to grow faster than the economies of the
pacific-rim regions.
·
Religion:
While Rahu-Jupiter opposition is going to support conservatives
and hardliners during Aug 14-22, the last week of the month will
be extremely trying for the religious authorities. Also, Aug 1-3
and Aug 7-10 are not so positive for religions around the world.
Redefinition of norms, and modifications of procedure that does
not take into account the effect of changing times will be some
of the issues religions will have to face with.
·
Natural
and
Man-made Calamities:
The most notable period of disaster will be the last week of the
month. The possible periods in August during which natural and
man-made calamities are likely are: Aug 1-3, Aug 7-10, Aug
24-31. Local level and personal tragedies are more likely
to occur during Aug 1-2 and Aug 25-31.
Aug
2: Air France Airbus in flames at Toronto airport
Aug
2: Seven Marines killed in Iraq, toll passes 1,800
Aug
3: Bomb kills 14 U.S. Marines in Iraq
August 6: 14 dead, 20
survivors in Sicily crash-magistrate
Aug

August

August

Aug

Plows Through Florida

Aug
29: Hurricane Katrina slams Louisiana coast
Aug
30: Hurricane Katrina brings death, floods to U.S. Gulf
Aug
31: Iraqi officials see 1,000 dead in stampede
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.
Comments on the last
month's World Financial Markets predictions
World
financial markets for August will likely to begin with mixed to bullish
sentiment, will stay bullish during the middle half of the month, and then
turn bearish towards the end of the month.
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.
August
1-4: Mixed
August
5-8: Mixed to bullish
August
9-15: Bullish
August
16-19: Mixed
August
20-22: Bullish
August
22-31: Mixed to bearish
World
financial markets seem to follow the predictions pretty close through the entire
month.
