The most challenging and perhaps scary planetary
configurations
for September are Pluto's direct squares with the lunar
nodes Rahu and Ketu (Sept 20 - Oct 18), Saturn-Neptune
direct opposition (Aug 25 - Sept 6) and a total solar
eclipse (September 22). However, the
counter-acting favorable planetary
configuration that may become responsible for world political and economical
stability are Uranus-Rahu
(till Sept 15) and Pluto-Neptune (Sept 6 - 30) ninefold trines.
Pluto-Rahu
and Pluto-Ketu squares will be responsible for rise in natural and
man-made
calamities all around the world, renewed insurgency in
Iraq, and escalating fighting in Israel and Palestinian region. Saturn-Neptune direct
opposition will manifest in covert activities in the
middle-east region, looming nuclear
threat from Iran and North Korea and deceptive global
politics and media coverage. The Middle East will
continue to be the center stage for ongoing conflict
between the militants and Israel (and its allies)
dominating the world events. The relationship between
Russia and Western countries including USA is likely to
be strained.
Despite
the negative influence of planetary configurations as
described above, the hope for the world
stability will come from Uranus-Rahu and Pluto-Neptune ninefold trines.
Advances in
scientific research and technology will continue
unabated.
The countries that are likely to make headline
news will be: United States, Iraq, Iran, Israel, Palestine,
North Korea, key European countries including
France and United Kingdom and Russia.
- United States of
America:
President Bush and his
administration:
Towards
the end of the month as Uranus begins to quincunx his
Natal Pluto, president Bush is likely to come under
intense pressure from his advisors and cabinet people to
pursue the path of withdrawal of U.S. military force
from Iraq.
Although
his Neptune trines his natal Moon and Jupiter
all through the month, the tenth house ninefold Neptune
will create an atmosphere of deception around him. And
as a result, he is likely to become totally delusive and
end up making wrong decisions on both foreign and
domestic policy issues. The post-Iraq war
crisis will continue to dodge him until he finally gives
up sometimes before the end of the year.
The Country:
Although
the Uranus-Rahu ninefold trine (Aug
4- Sept 15) is very positive for the country during the
first half of the month, Neptune-Saturn
direct opposition (till Sept 6) and Pluto-Rahu/Ketu direct squares
(Sept 20-30) will create new challenges that will manifest in
political crisis, social discontent, and natural
and man-made calamities. The general mood of
Americans will reflect discontentment and anxieties, and
it will take magic to inject hope back in public mood as
the country will be busy continuously dealing with one
crisis after another.
Mars-Uranus
direct quincunx (Sept 24-27) will be responsible for
social unrest, increased crime rate, natural and man-made calamities and fire related
incidents. A possibility of an undesired event
affecting the country negatively during these four days
can not be ruled out. However, advances in technology
and science will continue unabated at phenomenal
rate.
For republicans, the first (Sept 1-11) and the fourth (Sept 22-27)
week are not positive. The split between the party will
be sharper and the credibility with American people will
be on decline. The party leaders will maintain distance
from Bush administration due to post-Iraq war
mismanagement and failed domestic policies.
For democrats, September will prove to be a favorable month as
Uranus-Rahu ninefold trine will manifest in increased
prestige and popularity of the party (till Sept 15). New party
leaders will emerge as a result.
·
Russia:
The first and the last week of the month will be
disastrous for Putin administration due to political
unrest or internal management conflicts. A possibility
of a shift in political power from one party to another
can not be ruled out. Man-made and natural calamities
will also play important part in disrupting normal life
in Russia during the first week and Sept 22-26 period.
·
Europe:
The month is likely to be filled with a lot of covert
activities and deceptive politics all over the
continent. The first week is certainly bad from
the occurrence of a natural or man-made calamity standpoint.
·
China,
Japan, and Pacific-rim countries:
The first and the last week will be politically very challenging as
Neptune-Saturn opposition will manifest in a deceptive
atmosphere in politics. A possibility of riots can not
be ruled out. From
economic progress standpoint the entire region is
likely to experience a sudden short term slowdown..
·
Middle
East:
Violence and suicide bombings in Iraq,
Afghanistan and in Palestine-Israel
regions will continue through all month, especially during
September 1-6, 12-15, 20-30. An eruption of a terrorist
activity in one of the middle-east countries not listed
above (maybe Syria, Iran, or Saudi Arabia) exists during
the first week of September.
·
Religion:
The Saturn-Neptune opposition (Sept 1-6) will certainly
play an important role in creating apparent chaos
between different denominations of religious groups and
authorities. A possibility exists for a stepping down of
an higher religious authority or a shameless scandal
being exposed during the first week of the month. During
September 12-15, in general, religious authorities will
be very secretive and are
likely to experience challenging environment that will
directly oppose their policies and goals.
·
Natural and Man-made Calamities: Neptune-Saturn direct opposition, Uranus-Mars direct quincunx and
Pluto-Rahu/Ketu direct squares, and Solar eclipse will be
responsible for both the natural and man-made disasters
during September. The notable dates are: Sept 1-6, 12-15,
and Sept 20 - Oct 18
Earthquakes: Based on earthquake
prediction model, the earthquake(s) of magnitude 7 or higher
are likely to occur on September 1-2, 4-6, 15-16, and
28.
While man-made
calamities may manifest themselves in terrorism, unrest,
violence, accidents, and air crashes, the natural
calamities are likely to include extreme weather
conditions such as severe cold winters, and equally
intensive droughts, hurricanes or typhoons,
thunderstorms, earthquakes and fires.
