Horary astrological view of Germany's future

A horary chart was drawn up on March 26th at 5:05 MDT in Albuquerque NM (106W39; 35N05) to look into the question of Germany's future in light the condition of the Euro and the EU bailouts coming up. As shown by Saturn rising retrograde in the 2nd house of this chart serious and repeated trouble is coming up; it involves money and the need to protect the national security. Saturn mutual reception Venus says that Germany will look for the way out.

Venus is the ruler of the 2nd house. We see her at 29 degrees Aquarius in conjunction with Neptune in the 6th house. The 6th house says the coming matter is distressing. Both Venus and Neptune at 29 degrees is saying that those in distress are at the end of their tolerance. Venus, denoting the money, conjunct Neptune shows loss. Neptune rules the 7th house of international relations. The German economy is being drained by the untenable demands of the EU. This is going to cause big political trouble for the current Government.

The Moon in this chart is forming square aspects to Jupiter and Mercury. Jupiter and Mercury are in the 8th house. Jupiter rules the 4th house and Mercury rules the 10th. The 4th house is the people and the 10th is the Government. The people are at odds with the Government over the matter of economic losses. Frau Merkel's Government is already becoming unpopular. The federal elections coming in 2013 are happening at the time when Pluto is in conjunction with the Euro's Sun at 10 degrees Capricorn. The Euro will be in big trouble. Because of the severe consequences of the bailouts of Ireland, Greece, Portugal and Spain, involvement in the EU will become extremely unpopular amongst the German people and that will bring them into conflict with the current Government. It is not out of the question if the Mark is restored.

The Moon in this chart is in Capricorn square to Saturn in the 2nd house. This brings severe economic demands on Germany, depresses the markets and makes inroads in German business and industry.

Germany's ties to the EU may be seen in the relation between Mercury and Jupiter in this chart, also between Mercury and Neptune. Mercury rules the Ascendent, meaning Germany itself; Jupiter and Neptune rule the 7th house, meaning the other nations of the EU. The Moon is square Jupiter and Mercury. This brings strife to Germany's relations with the other members of the EU. We also see in the 7th house Mars and Uranus. Mars in the 7th house reaffirms strife, and denotes possible breakings of ties. Uranus is coming to square Pluto. This denotes crisis conditions developing in Germany's relation to the EU. The EU is in a weakened condition. The German people will have had it. We can see the problems in the EU reflected in the degree of strife that is now developing between the German people and the Government.

We also note, Jupiter is in opposition with Saturn. Jupiter rules the 4th house. The 4th house is the end of the matter. The opposition of Jupiter to Saturn spells serious losses of money and a breaking of economic ties. Saturn in mutual reception Venus shows Germany getting out of the burdens. The people will force the Government to change its relation with the EU.

The Moon afflicted in Capricorn in the 5th house also shows the German cultural scene suffering seriously from the imperialistic designs of the EU that have been draining Germany of its wealth. Watch the German people. The days of Merkel's Government and its entanglement with Bruxelles are numbered.

Astrological view of the super moon on 3/19

The full Moon is on March 19th at 6:11 PM GMT. It is called a super Moon as it is far closer to Earth than normally, and therefore exerts an especially strong magnetic pull on the Earth. The Moon is below the equator at about 5 degrees South declination. 5 degrees South may affect the area of Northern Peru and Southern Equador. Notwithstanding, the strong magnetic force of the super Moon will affect violent events of one kind or another on the entire planet. Confirming this, we find that the full Moon and Sun are exactly square the Nodal Axis and they are also exactly square the Lunar Eclipse of 12/21.

It is also important to note that at the time of this super Moon Jupiter and Saturn are within close orb of opposition to one another. The opposition of Jupiter and Saturn is triggering more Solar activity. The Solar flares to come will activate more Earth activity.

The full Moon is also in tight opposition with Uranus at 00:26 Aries. Exactly square the December 21st Lunar Eclipse (29 degrees Gemini), the super Moon will trigger more repercussions from that eclipse, the most recent being when Uranus was at 29 degrees Pisces square the eclipse degree at last week's earthquake and tsunami with all its catastrophic developments.

The Lunar Eclipse on 12/21 occured at 12:00 Noon over Japan. This guaranteed that Japan would be struck by earthquakes and volcanic eruptions within three months. It has happened. The super Moon will probably bring more. It will affect the Ring of Fire. The latitude of Japan is between 130 degrees and 148 degrees East. These latitudes also include Kamchatka Pennisula, Eastern Indonesia and New Guinea, in other words, the Western side of the Ring of Fire. The super Moon will trigger more activity in this and other regions.

Looking at the chart for Japan, the full Moon and Saturn are in the 8th house with Mars, Sun, Uranus, Jupiter and Mercury in the 2nd house. This shows a tremendous loss of wealth for Japan and a spike in the death rate. The Moon afflicted by Uranus shows coming panic and many deaths. The full Moon activating the 12/21 Lunar Eclipse may possibly bring more seismic activity in Japan. It is also possible that the situation of the nuclear reactors will turn for the worse.

Looking at Pakistan we find the full Moon in the Mid Heaven. Opposite Uranus, this full Moon brings potential seismic activity to the region, and it says that there is a lot of popular unrest and trouble in the Government. The Government is unpopular. Moon afflicted in the Mid Heaven shows scandals in Government circles. The Moon opposite Uranus in the 4th house shows that radical revolutionary forces are in opposition to the Government. Uranus is on a critical degree. This means that the opposition to the Government is critical and very dangerous. There may be another assassination. The Ascendent is at 29 degrees Scorpio bringing a weeping matter to Pakistan and the part of Assassination is at 19 degrees Sagittarius exactly square Mars. There will be a notable act of violence. The picture is ominous.

The full Moon and Saturn in New Zealand are in the 7th house opposite Sun, Uranus, Jupiter and Mercury in the 1st house. In light of the eclipse of 12/21, this full Moon may bring more seismic activity to New Zealand as well.

We also note that Mars will be at 29 degrees Pisces on April 1st. That may also trigger a repercussion from the 12/21 lunar eclipse. This full Moon is contributing to it.

Looking at the UK, the full Moon at Greenwich is on the Ascendent opposite Uranus in the 7th house. There are earthquakes in Britain sometimes. The Ascendent in the new Moon chart for UK is at 29 degrees Virgo exactly square the 12/21 eclipse, and the Mid Heaven in the new Moon chart for UK is at 29 degrees Gemini exactly in conjunction with the 12/21 eclipse. The entire country is in a state of tension and the Government is having no small degree of trouble. We note that the eclipsed Moon on 12/21 in Britain was just below the Western horizon, and the super Moon of 3/19 is just above the Eastern horizon. This is an interesting configuration. It says that British relations with foreign powers are at a critical juncture.

Greenwich is at 00 West longitude. Following that line South, we cross through Western France, Spain and Portugal and down into Western Africa. This entire region has the super Moon on the horizon. Any area in this region prone to earthquakes is now vulnerable. Whether earthquakes happen or not can here not be said with any certainty.

The full moon chart for Libya has the moon in the 12th house opposite Sun and Uranus in the 6th. Saturn is rising in the 1st opposite Jupiter and Mercury in the 7th. Mars is in the 6th. It points out fires and accidents and insubordination in the military. Afflicted Moon in 12 points to crime. Uranus in 6 points to explosions with loss of life. Saturn in 1 opposite Jupiter produces distress, poverty, disease.

Looking at the US, the full Moon is in the 3rd house opposite Uranus in the 9th. This warns of an increase in road accidents and a possible air crash. Uranus in the 9th house also suggests an emergency situation arising in one of the states.

A Johndro locality chart was made for California. In California we find the full Moon on the 7th house cusp opposite Uranus in the 1st house. We also see the meridian, i.e., the Mid Heaven and the Nadir exactly in conjunction with the Lunar Nodes, the Mid Heaven conjunct the North Node. There is the danger of an earthquake on the West Coast.

Looking further in the US, the super moon appears at the nadir opposite the Sun and Uranus in the 10th house in the entire Western half of the continental part of the country from approximately 95 degrees West to the West coast. This possibly will bring seismic activity to whatever areas there are that are prone to such. The area of the West as shown by the super Moon is also experiencing a great deal of political tension, as the charts show opposition to Government.

95 degrees West longitude also extends down into Mexico in the states of Veracruz and Oaxaca. The super Moon is therefore at the nadir from this area westward to the Pacific coast including California Baja.

All of the above delineated charts point to areas on the earth that may have seismic activity as a result of the 12/21 lunar eclipse as activated by this super Moon. The Western side of the Ring of Fire appears to be most vulnerable.

March madness in mundane astrology

The New Moon occured on March 4th at 8:47 PM GMT; 3:47 EST. It is the third lunation of the winter quarter.

We note that Saturn, now Retrograde, is exactly conjunct Saturn's position in the Winter Solstice and Solar Eclipse charts of Dec. 21, 2010 and Jan. 4, 2011, respectively. This times a reconsideration of judgements involving organizational affairs made by governments and businesses at the beginning of the winter. The controlling powers (including the bankers) are stepping back for reevaluation.

We also note that the new Moon is exactly sextile the January 4th Solar Eclipse degree (13:38 Capricorn) and that that Solar Eclipse was square Saturn. This enables the Eclipse square Saturn to act now; business organizations, government and law are working together in ways not altogether favorable for the world. The Solar Eclipse square Saturn and now the lunation quincunx Saturn tell us that mistakes in judgement will have a price. Saturn in Libra shows where there is potential for serious trouble to develop. China is ruled by Libra.

The lunation is also trine the Winter Solstice position of Venus. This increases wealth for certain people.

In the lunation chart itself we note that Neptune is 28:58 Aquarius and the North Lunar Node is 28:58 Sagittarius, exactly sextile to the minute. Very remarkable. What this is saying is that there is absolute certainty of nefarious activities going on in the area of Sagittarius. Sagittarius rules the Arab countries. What is being reported by the media is not at all what is happening over there. There is no small degree of undercover treachery happening. Nefarious, underhanded plots are being hatched. The North Lunar Node is square Uranus at 29 degrees Pisces denoting explosive developments. Note: Uranus at 29 degrees Pisces is exactly square the Lunar Eclipse degree of December 21, 2010 at 29 Sagittarius. Impatience leading to precipitous actions is to be anticipated. The people are at the end of their tether and are thus open to being manipulated by the secret forces precititating the so-called revolutions.

What the above is saying, in a nutshell, is that some are getting rich through the trouble in the Arab countries while injustice weighs heavily upon the people of the world.

This month of March, 2011, during the current lunation period, we note Saturn is coming to exact conjunction the US natal Saturn at 14 degrees Libra. It is Saturn Return time for the USA, in other words, a time of recogning. Saturn comes to 14 degrees three times this time around. The first time was late November and early December, 2010. This second time is from March 20th to April 2nd this year, and the third time is from August 20th through 29th this year. The one happening March 20th to April 2nd is by far the most interesting. Jupiter comes to opposition Saturn between March 27th and 31st; Jupiter will be at 14 degrees Aries, Saturn at 14 degrees Libra. Especially interesting, 14 degrees Libra is China's position of Neptune and Mercury; Neptune rules China's 2nd house, in other words, their money. This Saturn Return is generating a serious matter of concern between the US and China and it will bear upon the entire world. It is also important to note: The opposition of Saturn and Jupiter, that directly involves the US and China, is in affect at the Spring Equinox. This means that the complicated affair between the US and China over trade and money will take the entire astrological year, starting this Spring Equinox (March 20th), to develop. Watch US-China trade and financial relations this year.

Even more interesting, in light of the above, we note: Uranus is going into 00 degrees Aries on March 12th and will be on that degree until March 28th. This means that the Spring Equinox (00 Aries) the Sun will be exactly conjunct Uranus while Saturn is opposite Jupiter to intensify the nature of the events that will unfold during the year. Again, watch the relationship between China and the US. The playground is called Oil. Oil is wealth. The value of the dollar is going down. The price of oil is going up. The turmoil in the Arab countries as well as the developing tension with China is tied to the deteriorating condition of the dollar.

A very interesting point to note about the exact conjunction of the Sun and Uranus at the Spring Equinox is that it puts a very special Arabian Part on the Ascendent everywhere in the world. This Part is called the Part of Catastrophe. For the astrologers, it is calculated: ASC + Uranus - Sun. There will inevitably be sudden, violent, even catastrophic events in the world this year.

Mundane astrological view of Israel

In light of current developments in the Middle East, as shown by the February 18th Full Moon charts, the astrological chart for Israel was drawn up and progressed to February, 2011 to see more closely what is happening in that country. The progressed charts include the forward and converse progressed charts and the forward and converse directed charts. Here is what they show; this is the picture.

The modern state of Israel was established on the 14th of May, 1948. The chart progressed to the month of the 14th of February to the 14th of March, 2011 has the progressed Moon square Israel's natal Mars, and the converse progressed Ascendent exactly conjunct Israel's natal Mars. Israel is now on high alert. We also note that Israel's progressed Mars is at 29 degrees Virgo. Mars at 29 degrees any sign warns of precipitous actions. It will come as no surprise if Israel takes military action either now or later in the year. Israel's directed Moon will come to conjunction Israel's natal Mars in September to October this year.

We note also that Israel's Moon progressed and directed is at full Moon phase with Israel's natal Sun. This means that the country is now fully alert and aware and is in process of going through significant changes. The Moon rules Israel's 10th house and the Sun rules Israel's 11th house. Israel's natal Sun is in the 8th house and the progressed and directed Moon is in the 2nd. This means that the changes are happening in the Government and have to do with financial matters both domestic and international.

Israel's progressed Ascendent is trine Israel's natal Saturn and the converse directed Moon is now applying to trine Israel's natal Saturn. This gives Israel the power to restrain action as well as to act deliberately; it says that serious deliberations are underway in the Government. Saturn is in Israel's 10th house and it rules Israel's 4th and fifth. Deliberations in the Government have to do with property, land and farming development, and with diplomatic relations.

Israel's progressed ruling planet Venus is conjunct Israel's natal Uranus. Israel's Uranus is in the 9th house of the natal chart and rules the 5th house. This is showing significant developments are happening in the areas of diplomatic relations involving high tech developments and international trade as well as in innovative steps being taken in the fields of education and an on-going revolution taking place in the nation's religious community that brings the women into playing an ever more significant role. Israel's Jupiter was retrograde when the country was established in 1948. By progression Jupiter will go direct in 2042. It is predicted that the religious revolution will come to an important turning point at that time. Israel's Jupiter is opposite natally Uranus in the 9th house. This gives the land the blessing of vision that comes from out of the blue, so to say. The foundation of the country guarantees us a far-sighted Jewish religious development and restoration of essence that is underway even now. The ultra-orthodox community will adapt. In 2013 Israel's converse directed Mars will be conjunct Uranus in the 9th house. This will time challenging developments in the areas of the religious community as well as in the areas of the courts, legal affairs, and matters connected with shipping and trade. The negative side of this conjunction points to terrorist activities - yet again - such as explosions likely to occur. It is also probable that there will be made some remarkable scientific breakthroughs and discoveries in 2013. We also note that the year 2013 will be chaotic for Syria; Pluto will come to conjunction Syria's natal Sun at the end of 2012 and in 2013.

Israel's directed Mercury is now conjunct natal Pluto in the 10th house. Mercury rules the 9th and 12th houses and Pluto rules the 2nd. Financial and business concerns of an innovative type are now of particular interest to the Government as well as new developments in the field of secret intelligence.

Mundane astrological view of the full Moon 2/18/11

Full Moon occurs at 8:37 AM GMT on February 18th. The Moon is at 29:20 Leo conjunct the star Regulus. What this does is bring out secret activities and stresses matters of friends versus false friends and enemies. It speaks of power, violence and gains that don't last. Regulus is a 'royal star' of the nature of Jupiter and Mars; it denotes great expansiveness and force.

The Moon at 29:20 Leo and the Sun at 29:20 Aquarius are in exact aspect applying to the mean Lunar Node at 29:44 Sagittarius. This is a sure sign of dramatic events coming up in the world. The Node in Sagittarius is giving us the hint that it is in those parts of the world ruled by Sagittarius. The Arab countries, Australia, Spain, Southern France, Hungary, especially the area of Budapest, as well as the cities of Cologne and Stuttgart are places to watch as all of these are under Sagittarius. Watch the Middle East; this full Moon is bringing out turmoil.

The full Moon is opposite Mercury, Mars, Neptune and Sun. And it is happening during a major solar storm. The affects are extremely tense - and transformative. Something has to give.

The affects of the solar storm may soon bring increased volcanic and earthquake activity. It also will interfere with radio transmissions. Solar storms of this magnitude can also cause health problems in certain individuals. It concerns the ethers of the body (the medium thorugh which the electric vibrations of life are diffused), the etheric vibration of life flowing toward and away from the heart, the circulation of the bloodstream flowing toward and away from the lungs, and the nerve network. This can cause spasmodic affects including nervous tensions, cramping of muscles, and heart and circulatory conditions. The electrical system of the body can be affected. The Sun, Neptune, Mars and Mercury in Aquarius opposite the Moon in Leo make this all the more possible and tie the psychic principle, or sympathetic nervous system into all this. The best you can do in these conditions is not get worked up, but stay relaxed and calm. Make sure you drink plenty of water. It is better to let go of petty issues that get you worked up, and relax while this is happening over the next few days. Pay attention to your body. Keep calm and centered and don't worry. The more positive side of this coin is saying that our perceptions are being sharpened and some of us will recieve some remarkable inspiration.

As if the above advice does much good, the full Moon at 29 degrees says the world is at the end of its tether and is out of patience. This is a highly dramatic time, indeed.

With the North Lunar Node at 29 degrees Sagittarius we may look forward to when Uranus comes to 29 degrees Pisces between February 22nd and March 11th. During that time which straddles the coming new Moon on March 4th, we will see repercussions in the market to events now developing. It is probable that the market will retreat in the lunar period between March 4th and April 3rd.

In addition to the full Moon opposite Mercury, Mars, Neptune and the Sun, we notice that Venus at 16:13 Capricorn is exactly square Saturn at 16:46 Libra. Venus and Saturn are also in mutual reception. This means that getting around problems now is like jumping from the frying pan into the fire; attempts to avoid problems will now create problems.

The full Moon chart for the UK has Mercury, Mars, Neptune, the Sun, Uranus and Jupiter all in the 12th house with the Moon in the 6th house. The North Lunar Node is in the 9th house. With six planets in the 12th house we can be sure that a lot of secret activity is happening in Britain, and it involves spies, false friends and secret foes. There is also bound to be an increase in social unrest, crime, theft and murder. The full Moon in the 6th house opposite all those planets in the 12th house bodes ill for the health of the country. It also indicates troubled conditions affecting working people and people in public service including the military. The North Lunar Node is in the 9th house pointing to difficult foreign political involvements and troubles in foreign trade at this time.

The Full Moon in Bruxelles is in the 5th house opposite Mercury, Mars, Neptune and the Sun in the 11th house. This is bringing out the neccessity for changes in governance of the EU. Pressures are very great. The North Node in the 9th house is showing troubles in international relations involving trade. In both the charts for the UK and EU (Bruxelles) we find Venus in the 10th house square Saturn in the 6th house. This shows the governments trying to get around their problems with people in working classes including public services. It won't work; problems won't be resolved at all successfully now. The current problems are too difficult for the governments to handle.

The greatest tensions and turmoil in the world are being shown by this full Moon chart in the region extending from Egypt to Iran. In the charts of all these nations we find Mercury, Mars, Neptune and the Sun in the 10th house opposite the Moon in the 4th house. On the Western side of this region, i.e., Egypt and the Near East, the North Lunar Node is in the 8th house showing dangers of losses of property, money and human life. On the Eastern side of this region, i.e., Iran, the North Lunar Node is in the 7th house showing dangers of international conflict. In the chart made for Tehran we find Mars exactly on the Mid Heaven, showing a big danger of violence. We note, the solstice point of the Part of Assassination in the chart made for Tehran is at 24:52 Leo. It is opposite Mercury, Mars Neptune and the Sun and the Mid-Heaven, and conjunct the full Moon in Tehran. It spells the possibility of an assassination in Iran. Watch what happens with the Iranian war ships that are sailing through the Suez Canal. They are aiming to provoke war with Israel. The whole region from across North Africa through Egypt and the Middle East all the way to Iran is deeply troubled.

The chart made for Pakistan has Mercury, Mars, Neptune and the Sun in the 9th house with Moon in the 3rd, the North Lunar Node in the 7th. International affairs are extremely tense as relates to Pakistan now. The chart shows dangers of air crash as well as accidents on roads.

The chart made for China has Mercury, Mars, Neptune and the Sun in the 7th house with Moon rising in the 1st. This makes East Asia a place of potential strife. This chart includes the Koreas and Japan. Mars afflicted in the 7th house in this region is very poweful. It shows dangers of international disagreements and disputes. International relations are unsatisfactory.

The chart for Australia has the full Moon conjunct the Ascendent. Merury and Mars are in the 6th house and Neptune and the Sun are in the 7th. The North Node is in the 4th. This connects international relations with the land. Saturn is in the 2nd house square Venus in the 5th. Taxes for the recent disasters are registering in this chart. This is also showing losses in the stock market and possible losses and cut backs in areas of public services.

The chart for the US has the full Moon in the 8th house opposite Mercury, Mars, Neptune and the Sun in the 2nd, the North Node is exactly conjunct the Ascendent. Major financial troubles are showing. Money is still being squandered. Cut backs are not stemming the flow. Moon opposite Neptune and Mars is showing (partisan) trickery behind cuts, expenditures, and losses. There is a big fight brewing over Government spending cuts. The Ascendent conjunct the North Node is showing the public alarmed. Venus in the 1st house square Saturn in the 9th is showing serious international trade problems weighing upon this country.

Horary astrological chart: Iran sending war ships to Suez

Upon hearing a report that Iranian war ships are on the way to Suez a horary chart was made February 16, 2011 at 9:36 PM MST in Albuquerque, NM to determine what it means. Here is what the chart shows.

First off, Saturn is retrograde in the 1st house giving a strong NO answer to what concerns us. Saturn rules the 4th house. This says that in the end the answer is NO.

Then, what's the question? Let's look at what's coming up. The near future is shown by the 2nd house. The 2nd house cusp is in Scorpio. The rulers of the 2nd house are Pluto and Mars. Pluto is in the 3rd house and Mars is in the 5th.

Pluto in the 3rd house is saying that matters having to do with transportation, commerce and discussions are coming up. Pluto is square Jupiter in the 6th house. Jupiter rules the 3rd house. The matter involves forced actions, a lot of confusion and plenty of misunderstanding.

Mars in the 5th house is saying that the matter involves taking an extreme risk. Mars is in conjunction with Mercury, the Sun and Neptune. This is going to have an affect on the oil situation and is potentially explosive. Mars conjunction Mercury is showing harsh words coming. Sun is separating from conjunction Mars and Mars is coming to conjunction Neptune. The action is hostile and tricky. The conjunction with Neptune involves military maneuvers and is chaotic if not explosive. Neptune is mutual reception Uranus bringing mutual reception Uranus to conjunction Mars, and that is also explosive. A threat is being made. This is an aggressive move on the part of Iran and it is calculated to bring more trouble to the region. Iranian ships are headed to Syria/Lebanon. This is bringing serious trouble to the region.

The question whether there will be a war comes up. For us to predict a war there has to be either a conjunction, square or opposition of the rulers of the 1st and the 7th houses and this has to happen in an angle, or angles of the chart. This is not showing; Venus, the ruler of the 1st house, is in the 3rd house and Mars, the ruler of the 7th house, is in the 5th house, and they have no aspect nor do they have translation of light by any other planet.

The Moon can act as a substitute for either the ruler of the 1st or the 7th. Moon is in the 10th house, an angle, and is going to opposition Mars from the 11th. Let's say war is averted, but is a danger nonetheless.

The Moon's aspects are these: she first forms a counter parallel aspect with Mars to put off the possibility of war. Then she is forming a counter parallel Neptune to bring up lies and chicanery to hoodwink the suspicious; sextile Saturn to delay or slow down matters; then counter parallel Sun allowing for a failure to cooperate; opposition Mercury to bring tension, more lying, and arguing and misunderstandings; opposition Mars to bring out sharp hostilities and a possible attack; opposition Neptune to exacerbate the chaos that is developing; and finally opposition Sun. The Full Moon is going to bring the matter to a crisis and a turning point. Mercury is at 21 degrees Aquarius, a critical degree. Moon coming to opposition Mercury will bring the matter to a critical degree, confirming that there is coming a diplomatic crisis. The crisis is also being confirmed by Moon opposition Mars. Crisis is certain.

Moon opposite Mars occurs between the 11th house and the 5th house. The fighting will happen on diplomatic levels. Will there be a war? Saturn Retrograde in the 1st house says NO. Let's just say, not yet.

This chart does not make predictions of future events, but it does speak from this current event. The sending of war ships to Suez, while it is a seriously dangerous matter, is not going to trigger an anticipated war with Iran. Iran is taking a brazen and dangerous step to escalate growing tensions with the West and opportunistically complicate an already turbulent situation in the region. It has something to do with Syria.

The Moon is at 11 degrees Leo. She was last over Jupiter at 5 degrees Aries. This tells us that the current event relates to matters involving coming and going and discussions happening six months ago, i.e., last August.

Transiting planets, as shown in this horary chart, are not forming any exact aspect with any of the planets in the chart of Iran. There are, however, tight and exact aspects to the chart of Syria. There is more to this than meets the eye. It is highly probable that Syria has a hand in it, and it has to do with something developing in Syrian/Lebanese affairs and all that that implies.

We find that Mercury in this horary chart exactly trines Syria's Saturn in Syria's 9th house affecting long range plans affecting Syria's foreign relations. We find that the horary Venus is exactly sextile Syria's Moon in Syria's 5th house denoting diplomatic agreements having been made with Iran. We find that the horary Mars is one degree from exact opposition Syria's Jupiter in Syria's 11th house denoting an explosive development to come in the Syrian government. And we note that Syria's Sun is 9 degrees Capricorn waiting for Pluto to come to conjunction to trigger chaos. Syria is headed for a big crisis in 2012 and 2013 when Pluto comes to conjunction the Sun in Syria's chart.

Horary astrological view of a proposed take over of the NYSE by Deutche Boerse

Upon reading an article reporting that the Deutche Boerse is currently attempting to make a move to buy the NYSE a horary chart was drawn up in Albuquerque, NM on 2/15/11 at 7:34 PM MST to find out if that is going to happen. This is what the chart shows.

The outstanding feature of the chart is Saturn rising in the 2nd house retrograde. It says trouble is arising involving money and the need for protection. Saturn is both square and mutual reception Venus, the ruler of the 2nd house, showing that attempts to get around the trouble will bring trouble. In other words, there is no way around trouble in this matter. Saturn Retrograde rising in the 2nd house can, and may destroy the current plan.

The Moon is forming two aspects: counter parallel Pluto and trine Uranus. This says that something else will happen; current plans will change. Nonetheless, trouble is coming up in this and we can see that the Moon trine Uranus will allow it to happen in one form or another. The entire matter is bad. One way or another the rat will sooner or later make its way into the larder. Uranus is in the 7th house of international relations; international deals are being made. And at whose expense? Jupiter and Neptune, the rulers of the 7th house are elevated over Mercury, the ruler of the Ascendent. Frankfurt will have the upper hand if they can drive it through and it will be at the expense of the US.

Moon was last over Jupiter at 4 degrees Aries. Moon is at 25 degrees Cancer in the 11th house. This means that the current state of the affair has been circulating, i.e., under discussion back and forth, for about five months. We now hear of it.

The third house cusp in Scorpio, a fixed sign, and Pluto, the co-ruler of the 3rd house is in the 4th house, an angle. This says there there is truth to the report. The angles of the chart are in mutable signs, saying that the report is not completely true. Mars, the ruler of the 3rd house is in the 6th house affirming that the report is not entirely true. The Moon in Cancer, a cardinal sign shows falsity.

Bottom line, serious danger is coming up and will come up repeatedly, what is being reported currently is not completely true and there is a good chance that the scheme will fail; the current plan will run into serious obstacles. Other approaches will be tried in the attempt to weld together the markets in an international move to overtake the US economy. It is a big red flag.
