Planetary Transits for December 27 – January 2

 

Note: All seven of the planets, along with Rahu and Ketu, move into the

year 2008, on Jan. 1, at 00:01 a.m. in the various time zones worldwide. Be

sure to enjoy a healthy, happy, and prosperous New Year!

 

Sun transits Sagittarius, from 11:06 to 18:14°. This is good for leaders

and governments.

Jan. 10, but is outside the orb of influence of other planets. This should

under the aspect of Mars and Ketu. There can be some fighting over

religious ideologies.

the Writers Guild of America after Dec. 29.
