Partial
Lunar Eclipse (July 7)
A weak and partial lunar eclipse occurs on July 7 approximately during the hours of
7:00 to 11:00
GMT. It's a very weak eclipse, and it will be visible in the both American
continents. Since it's a weaker type it's not expected to influence the world events in significantly negative
way.
Total Solar Eclipse (July 22)
A total solar eclipse occurs on July 22 approximately
during the hours
of 1:30 to 4:00 GMT. This eclipse will be visible in continents of Asia,
East-Africa, Australia, and the west coast of United States, Mexico and
Canada.
This eclipse is important since the Sun
and Moon will be within half a degree from Ketu, the Southern or descending node
in the sidereal zodiac sign Cancer. Consequently this eclipse, according to
Vedic astrology, is likely to be unfavorable for those who have sidereal Cancer rising or
Cancer as moon sign.
For those who have the lunar nodes in conjunction with
either Sun or Moon should watch-out. It's not a good
day! Take extra precaution and avoid any sort of outdoor activity
requiring you to get out of house.
On world scene, the middle east (especially Iran,
Afghanistan and Pakistan), North Korea, China are likely to experience either
violence or natural calamities.
Neptune-Jupiter
conjunction (May
14 - July 23)
Both Jupiter and Neptune are considered as auspicious
planets. While Jupiter deals with outward and material things Neptune's
influence on us is very abstract and subtle. Jupiter-Neptune conjunction occurs
once (actually 2-3 times with in a year's period due to their retrograde
motions) in about 13-14 years. For those who have
such conjunction in their birth charts, and if they have any one of these planets
influencing them through the current progressive cycle are certainly going to
experience a transformation (irreversible change) of their beliefs and moral
values that they have been attached to. It's time for marching ahead with a
quantum step in the process of self discovery (or evolution). Embrace this
period with total openness and vulnerability. It's the time of rejuvenation with a
positive force in your life. Enjoy!
On the world scene, world religions are likely to be
challenged with earthshaking ideas that they must attend to. Those religious
leaders, who are willing to be open minded and ready to listen and act on new
and fresh ideas, are the ones that going to be responsible to transform our
religious world to a new level. Others are going to fade away with time.
Uranus-Saturn ninefold square (June 27 - July 5)
Saturn-Uranus ninefold square is unfavorable for you if
you have such a square or opposition in your birth chart.
In addition, if the planet Uranus or Saturn is affecting your life via your
current progressive chart, then you might want to consider taking extra
precautions in the areas which are affected by these planets as shown in your
natal chart. You should avoid taking any kind of risk at any cost
during this period. Such square or opposition can make things so miserable and
difficult for you that most likely you are not going to forget them in your
entire life. Staying low key is certainly the way to go. Avoid any new
ventures and postpone the matters that you want to begin till this period is
passed.
On a collective level, the United States of America,
Russia or China may experience a social or political turmoil at home as well as
tensions rising between them.
Mars-Neptune Square (July 4-6)
Typically this square is very unfavorable and
unfortunate in general. For those who have such square in their birth
chart, and if they have any one of these planets influencing them through the
current progressive cycle need be extra careful. The best thing to do is to lay low
key, not make any new commitment, and avoid taking any sort of risk.
On the world scene, expect some sudden outbreak of an
undesirable happening and greater possibility of both natural and
man-made calamities. The countries that are most likely to be affected during
these three days would be Pakistan and Russia.
Saturn-Rahu
ninefold trine (Saturn-Ketu ninefold sextile) (July
10-13)
Saturn-Rahu
trine is usually favorable for those who have lunar nodes favorably
placed in their natal charts with respect to Saturn. If such placing is
connected to the first house, second house, ninth house, tenth house, or
eleventh house then expect monetary as well as power gains, promotions and
improved prestige in professional and social fields. The ideas that you
always wanted to pursue your desired goals but somehow could never get started....now is the time
to follow that dream. You will distinctly notice and feel the positive energy
flowing through you during this period. It's time to jump in and enjoy
this period.
Mars-Pluto Quincunx (July 12-14)
This three-day period is likely to be very
frustrating for those who have Mars-Pluto opposition, quincunx, square, or
conjunction in their natal charts. Typically this quincunx is very unfavorable
from the point of view of facing situations that are beyond our
control. Unexpected problems
are likely to occur with astonishing
speed and without any notice. For those who have such quincunx, opposition or
conjunction in their birth
chart, and if they have any one of these planets influencing them through the
current progressive cycle need to be on guard. Stay very low key, do not make any new commitment, and avoid taking any sort of risk. Also,
experiences like a sudden incident of fire, or an accident involving explosive
material are very possible.
On the world scene, sudden outbreak of an
undesirable happening, possibilities of both natural and
man-made calamities are likely. The countries that are most likely to be affected during
this period will be: the United States of America, Iraq, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan,
Palestine and Israel.
Pluto-Saturn ninefold quincunx (July 16-20)
For those who have quincunx, square, or opposition of Pluto and Saturn in
their birth charts, and for those whose current planetary operating cycle is
influenced by either of these planets are likely to experience a severe setback
or turmoil in their lives. Such quincunx can become a very strong force
to destroy the current setting of your lifestyle due to misfortune or things
beyond your control and transform it to a totally
new life setting which may or may not be desirable depending on the strength and
positive influence of these planets in the natal chart. In any event it's going
to be a irreversible event.
On
a collective level, expect another outbreak of violence and terrorist activities
in Middle-East, a good possibility of natural as well as man-made calamities, and to
some extent, war-like climate in some part of the world. Tension between
Israelis and Palestinians will remain unabated. Some of the east-European
countries, Russia, and China may experience political as well as social turmoil.
Uranus-Rahu ninefold quincunx (July 26 - Aug
20)
If in your birth chart Uranus is in the direct quincunx with the lunar node
Rahu, and if any one of these two planets are
influencing you now via your current progressive chart, then you might want to
consider taking extra precautions in your professional and financial areas
during this period and be prepared for unwanted surprises and
obstacles. This quincunx can become dangerous, and ruin your plans and bring about the
unexpected disaster in every which way. In short during this period you
have been tested. If you have very strong and positively placed lunar nodes and
Uranus in your birth chart, then perhaps you need not worry.
On a collective level, the United States and in
particular, the Republic Party and republicans are likely to run into some very difficult period. Also, USA and
China may go through a crisis situation during this period.
