Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Hi John, Don't you think that 'mutual reception' can divert things, cover up..?-like seemingly 'weak' appearing as actual strength in disguise, etc. Not bad for economy I'd say. Regards, Anna ________________________________ John <jr_esq Friday, March 27, 2009 6:21:22 PM Re: Paradox of Jupiter's Neecha Status in Makara Namaste Balasubramaniam, The transit of Mars in Cancer is the cyclical time to beware of natural disasters that occur in one's geographical area in the world. For the Far East and South Asia, this is usually the time when typhoons, tsunamis and earthquakes would occur. In North America, the USA is usually plagued by the hurricanes that have devastated the city of New Orleans and other metropolitan centers in the area. So, the mutual aspect of Mars and Jupiter, both of whom are neechas, could heigthen the danger of these natural disasters for the world in general. As a precautionary measures, the emergency units in these areas should be alerted to the possibility of these areas in order to avert any confusion that resulted in many deaths in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA a few years ago.

Gold, for instance, was trading at 882 on Wednesday, its lowest level since January. By early Friday, it was up to 967.80, an appreciation of 10% in less than 48 hours. Silver's move was even more spectacular, as it fell to 1189 the same day, also its lowest level since January. At the close of trading on Friday, it was up to 1384, a gain of 16.4%. But if you are a currency trader, you had to be stunned by the surge in the Euro currency and Swiss Franc against the U.S. Dollar.. Since its low of 1.2455 on March 4, the Euro currency soared to 1.3737 on March 19 (last Thursday). The Swiss Franc surged from a low of .8356 against the U.S. Dollar on March 12 to a high of .8980 just one week later. These are huge movements for currencies. Similar moves were noted in the > longer-term Treasuries and Notes. Grains and Crude Oil also enjoyed healthy price increases last week, with Crude trading above 52.00 for the first time since November. This fits with last week's report, which stated, " For this coming week, the most notable celestial event we take interest in is the " Sagittarius Factor " of Monday-Wednesday. It oftentimes coincides with very sharp price movements - and reversals - in many financial markets, but especially in precious metals, currencies, and Treasuries. " Yet the amplitude of these moves was even more impressive than expected, for reasons discussed below. > > > > Equity markets were not quite as exciting. The rallies which started from the lows of March 6-10 (as Venus turned retrograde) continued into last week. After rising 10-20% in that brief amount of time, many of these indices started pulling back as the week wore on. In the case of the Dow Jones Industrial Average, for example, the low of March 6 at 6470 stalled out last Wednesday, March 18, at 7571. That represents an impressive gain of 1100 points and 17% in just 8 trading days. But by Friday, it had given back 300 of those points. We now wait for next week to see if this will be just a " normal " corrective decline in a new bull market, or the resumption of the bear market. > > > > Short-Term Geocosmics > > We are out of the dream-like, surreal, period of Pisces. It's officially springtime now. As discussed a few weeks ago, this new season may come in with a bang. After all, the first non-lunar aspect made as we begin spring will be the Sun square Pluto on Monday, March 23. This will also end the " translation " of the Sun to the Saturn-Uranus- Pluto developing T-square, which was in force March 8-23. Once again, this translation wasn't as bad for stocks as was the case in 2008. In fact, equities have been mostly higher during this period. The question is: will they continue to rally? Or will they reverse sharply down now that the " translation " is ending? > > > > The answer may be influenced by Venus retrograde, which is also in effect now. In fact, it lasts much longer, since it started March 6 and doesn't end until April 17. It is not unusual to see a market making a multi-month high or low nearby to Venus turning retrograde, and then reverse in the opposite direction until the time its motion returns direct. If the Venus retrograde is more powerful than the Sun's translation to the Saturn-Uranus- Pluto T-square, then the market should continue its rally for a few more weeks before taking out the low of March 6-10. If not, we may see the bear market resuming. With Pluto in the picture as the spring equinox begins, the focus is once again on debt, for Pluto rules debt, death, and taxes. The aspects that are present at the time of seasonal change tend to describe themes that are most highlighted for the whole of that season. This week is not only the start of the new season, but also a new moon, which will form > the same square to Pluto. Spring is supposed to be the season of romance and love, and bright new hopes for the future. But with Pluto so prominent, it may be more like " tough love. " Such a geocosmic set up can be prone to serious power plays in which there is little mercy for the weak. This is not a time when the " weak shall inherit the earth. " What they inherit may be more debt, and more demands to pay up (like the AIG executives who received those bonuses). They are more prone to be forced into foreclosure or bankruptcy, and sudden changes of life style they didn't plan for. > > > > Longer-Term Thoughts > > The Venus retrograde effect was in full force last week. Not only did the stock market continue its rise from March 6, but the Central Banks did indeed announce new policies that had a direct impact on all interest-rate related markets (i.e. Treasuries and currencies). This is what generally happens during Venus retrograde - central banks make new policies or change old ones, and markets react with great volatility and large price swings. One week ago, the Swiss Central Bank lowered its key interest rate, and the Swiss Franc feel to a new three-month low against the U.S. Dollar (the Euro currency did not, for a case of intermarket bullish divergence). Then this past Wednesday, March 18, the U.S. Federal Reserve announced a plan to purchase $300 Billion in Treasuries, which forced the long-term bond rate to levels not seen in decades. The 10-year Treasury Notes dropped form 3+% to 2.53% and 30-year mortgage rates fell to 4.75%. At the same time, the > value of the U.S. Dollar plummeted, as other currencies surged up against it. The Fed is printing money with a zeal seldom - if ever - seen before. In all, the Fed will stimulate the economy to the tune over $1 trillion more, on top of the White House's massive multi-trillion spending programs already launched in the past few weeks. > > > > Yes, they are serious about getting this economy back on strong footing. But they also risk the dark side of the forthcoming Jupiter-Neptune conjunction, which is inflation. You may remember last summer the Federal deficit was projected to be $500 billion this year. Then it was raised to $800 billion towards the end of last year, and then $1.2 trillion early this year. This week, it is now estimated to rise to $1.8 trillion. This phenomenon where the budget deficit " .will rise much greater than anyone expects " was discussed in detail in the year's Forecast 2009 Book, along with the likely ramifications. > > > > Jupiter and Neptune are in Aquarius, and Uranus is in Pisces, creating a very rare astrological phenomenon known as a mutual reception. It has only happened twice in the past 3000 years, the last time being 1843. With Jupiter and Neptune together (May-July 2009 is the strongest part of this aspect), the dynamics tend to be inflationary. But with Uranus involved, the risk is not a " gradual " return to inflation, but a Uranian " sudden and unexpected dramatic " return. > > > > Is there really a risk here? Chairman Bernanke recently said there is no risk of inflation in the foreseeable future. But remember: he has the Sun-Jupiter opposition natally at 21 Sagittarius- Gemini. Transiting Uranus is hovering around 21 degrees of Pisces, in T-square to his Sun-Jupiter opposition, and all in mutable signs. This is not a signature usually related to accurate forecasting skills, or good judgment. The risk is over-estimating (or grossly under-estimating) the effect of one's actions. That is why transiting Uranus in hard aspect to natal Jupiter is one of the classical bankruptcy aspects in astrology. It is not that one cannot make money during these times, for often one makes a lot of money. But when and how these individuals choose to spend or invest (or speculate) their money oftentimes involves a risk that is far more serious than they thought, and it results in larger losses than expected. In this case, the decision could quite > easily result in a sudden increase in inflation that was not foreseen, with the next result requiring a sudden jump in interest rates that thwarts the economic recovery. > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Dear Marg, John, everyone, I am interested in your opinion- with so much newly printed money in circulation USdollar will inevitably loose its value- in general /inflation/ and comparatively (if Europe doesn't follow the trend suggesting, as China has already done, new definition of financial system/currency change). Ju/Ne brings confusion/frustration and tensions with Sa/Ma in the pic. It doesn't seem that the mess created now on the world level, will be cleared out easily: Ju opposition Sa, loong weary transit is awaiting, just around the corner. Signature for depression, but resolution after painful and long 'turning point' as well. That leads to 2011, at best. Anna ________________ Looking for the perfect gift?

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 Namaste Anna, The US Federal Reserve Board is keeping a very close watch with the statistical numbers relating to inflation and deflation. They control the supply of money to fine tune the US economy. If they print new money, I'm sure its for a particular purpose. It's most likely related to the stimulus package to jump start the beleaguered economy. As we read in the newspaper, the US government has committed trillions of dollars for this stimulus package, well beyond the government income from taxes. As such, we are technically in a deficit spending mode, which adds more burden to the national debt. After the economy gets healthier, the American people will eventually have to address this deficit spending and national debt. If not addressed, this country will surely collapse beyond relief. At this time, the US government is running on its innate economic power or potential. For the short term, this might be enough to carry over the present economic downturn. From an astrological point of view, we need to stop worrying about the potential negativity of the present situation. In my opinion, we need to trust that Jupiter will continue its benefic function after it exits out of Capricorn. We can look forward to a better time when Jupiter gets stronger in its own house of Pisces. As the Bible states, " To everyting, there is a time and purpose under heaven.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Dear John, You've addressed fears of many, nicely-thanks. Astrologically, Ju/Sa opposition we will be facing doesn't promise much- where Jupiter expands, Sa shrinks- or say, limits too much too fast a growth-and some wisdom may occur? /with Ju/Sa signature of B.Obama- I guess those born in crucial phases of Ju/Sa will be most affected!/ You see, I am trying hard to be more positive. Fears, as you said, won't help- our prayers may. Good Luck Everyone!

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 HI Anna, John and everyone On another group I visit the same subject is being discussed, and 2010 seems to be showing some concern due to Jupiter then being with planet Uranus---in spiration or dire instability, while opposite Saturn. Pluto is in Capricorn, natural sign of government and all seems to be adding up to a change in the way governments govern. I don't think the recession is an accident to be honest, I think it has been deliberately engineered---Jupiter with Neptune, and is a tool for change by powers wanting to seize global control. It's democracy we should be worried about losing, not our money, but our freedoms. best wishes M - sar108 Saturday, March 28, 2009 7:05 AM Re: Re: Paradox of Jupiter's Neecha Status in Makara Dear Marg, John, everyone, I am interested in your opinion- with so much newly printed money in circulation USdollar will inevitably loose its value- in general /inflation/ and comparatively (if Europe doesn't follow the trend suggesting, as China has already done, new definition of financial system/currency change).
