Some of the important planetary configurations for May are:
Neptune-Rahu ninefold conjunction (April 15
- May 14), Mars-Pluto (May 9-13) quincunx, Pluto-Saturn (April 10 - May 11)
trine, and Uranus-Jupiter
(March 16 - June 2) sextile. In addition, Saturn-Rahu/Ketu
(May 27 - June 2) and Uranus-Rahu/Ketu (May
26 - June 3) ninefold squares will be
responsible in influencing the world events.
The auspicious Uranus-Jupiter sextile and Pluto-Saturn trine will
provide for the political stability
around the world. Particularly the Jupiter-Uranus
sextile is very positive for bringing out a positive
change in religious world by discarding the outdated and
old non-useful norms and adapting to new ones. This has been obvious in the United States of America where
the recent visit by the Pope is seen as a positive step
of reconciliation between the victims of sex abuse
scandal and the Vatican.
The Neptune-Rahu conjunction will continue to be responsible
for significant social and political changes in Russia and
China. These changes has been occurring since last month
and will continue through May. These will have lasting impact
on world politics and global economy. World
financial markets will continue to be very volatile.
The Saturn-Rahu/Ketu (May 27 - June 2) and Uranus-Rahu/Ketu
(May 26 - June 3) ninefold squares will be
responsible for natural and man-made
calamities in the Middle-East and the United
States.
The countries that are most likely to be affected during
this period would be: Russia, China, United States, Iraq, Palestine and Israel.
- United States of America:
President Bush and his administration:
President Bush's operating and the currently dominating
planet Pluto will transit though the 8th
house of his ninefold progressive chart until May 20,
and then through the 7th house. As
a result, till May 20, he will continue to be frustrated
in his dealing with the international
as well as domestic matters. Later he will be forced to
directly confront with issues such as economy, post
Iraq-war crisis and other political issues.
Also, after May 9th, with a new sub-cycle, the influence
of Saturn becomes active as Saturn becomes the operating
planet (until September 26, 2008). Transiting Saturn
being in the 8th house of his ninefold progressive chart
his ability to govern the country will be significantly
decreased, and that will be reflected in him having extremely difficult time in dealing with
the congress as well as with his own administration.
The Country:
The Neptune-Rahu conjunction will be responsible
for covert activities and it will keep CIA and FBI very
busy. In politics what we see on the surface will
totally be deceptive. The real maneuvering behind
the scenes (which we may never know until sometimes in
future is brought to light) will be mind boggling.
The influence of this conjunction will have lasting impact
on world politics and global economy. World
financial markets will continue to be volatile.
The Uranus-Rahu/Ketu ninefold squares (May 26 - June 3)
is not positive for the country. These squares are
likely to manifest as natural or man-made calamities.
Uranus-Saturn ninefold conjunction is certainly not
positive for the Bush administration and the
conservative republicans. Bush
administration may have to deal with yet
another global crisis.
The Uranus-Jupiter sextile (all month) and Pluto-Saturn trine
(till May 11) will
provide for the political stability and spiritual
evolution. Particularly the Jupiter-Uranus sextile
is very positive for bringing out a positive change in
religious world by discarding the outdated and old
non-useful norms and adapting to new ones. This will be
obvious in the United States of America where the
religious norms will see the phenomenal shift.
Neptune-Uranus ninefold trine and Uranus-Jupiter auspicious
sextile will be responsible for continued advances in technology and science.
Uranus-Jupiter sextile will continue transform the democratic
party to a new level as it has been going through the political
crisis of inconclusive democratic race for the
front-runner. The final outcome will be certainly worth
the trouble.
·
Russia: The Neptune-Rahu conjunction
(April 15 - May 14) will certainly be responsible for
rise in covert activities, especially the ones that
involve political dealings of Russia with its
adversaries. The international politics will continue for new power struggle in Russia due to
potential drastic political and social changes in
Russia.
·
Europe: The Uranus-Saturn ninefold
conjunction may become responsible for new
wave of friction between the United States
and European Union. On the other hand,
Pluto-Saturn trine and the Pluto-Neptune
ninefold trine will keep things pretty much
in order and will be responsible for
economical growth and increased prosperity.
However, the last week of the month may
prove to be disastrous from natural and
man-made calamities standpoint.
·
China, Japan, and Pacific-rim countries:
For China the first half and the last week of the
month will be very
crucial to deal with both the domestic and international
human rights issues. It may reflect in confusion and
protest for Tibetan crisis resulting in violence in Beijing. In addition, the
man-made and natural calamities are likely to occur
during the last week of the month. For Japan and Pacific-rim countries,
the month looks to be reasonably positive from economical
progress standpoint.
·
Middle East: The Neptune-Rahu
conjunction will continue to be responsible for secret terrorist
attacks and continued violence in Middle-East (Iraq, Israel,
Palestine, Lebanon, Afghanistan, and Pakistan region)
during April 15 - May 14. Also, Mars-Mars quincunx, and
Saturn-Rahu/Ketu and Uranus-Rahu/Ketu
ninefold squares will be
responsible for intense fighting in Iraq and new wave of violence in Iran and Palestine-Israeli
region.
·
Religion: Uranus-Jupiter
sextile (March 16 - June 2) will continue to be positive
for most of the religions around the world. The changes
in spiritual activities, especially in the United States,
will bring out positive changes in religious
world by discarding the outdated and old non-useful
norms and adapting to new ones. And therefore these new
activities, due to their momentum,
will result in some
significant achievements.
·
Natural and Man-made Calamities: Although
the entire month of May is likely to be filled with the
calamities, the notable dates
for calamities around the world are: May 9-13, 26-31.
Earthquakes: Based on our earthquake
prediction model,
the earthquake(s) of magnitude 7 or
higher, if occur, are likely to occur on May 13, 16,
18-19, 24, 30-31.
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
