Economic Declines Globally as Jupiter and Saturn Opppose Each Other

Economic Declines

Astrology of Market and Currency Fluctuations

Recent declines in stock markets in the US and Europe are coinciding with the larger patterns in the astrology of this year. As previously written about here and in my special report Mounting Challenges, 2010 looks to be a landmark year astrologically, which corroborates the story told in markets the world around.

Last week’s 1,000 point drop in the New York Stock Exchange was perfectly coincided with aspects of Mars contra-paralleling Pluto and Jupiter contra-paralleling Saturn on Thursday, May 6. Parallels are when planets become equidistant from zero degrees declination, basically an opposition on another axis. Also these kinds of aspects reinforce the more commonly known aspects that are coming into exact alignment this year.

Basically the world is having pre-shivers on the state of the global economy and its current world reserve currency, the US dollar.

There is very little confidence in the Bush plan unveiled last Friday giving tax rebates to US consumers, is mainly seen as an act of desparation. As this is all hitting the collective consciousness, it is not surprising that the stars are reflecting the sharp pangs of fear throughout the global economy. There is a unique line-up of malefic planets: the Sun is exactly bisecting Mars and Saturn in the sky today. Vedic Astrology Jan 21 Sun, Mars, Saturn

One of my favorite astrology books, The Combination of Stellar Influences , refers to this particular combination of planets as "...weak vitality, the inability to meet all demands or to master all situations."

Tomorrow, when the US stock market opens after its Martin Luther King Day holiday, it will be afflicted by the conjunction of Mercury and Neptune. This will most certainly have the effect of producing false, misleading, or abjectly delusory perceptions of the state of affairs. The US stock market of course has its Plunge Protection Team as its ace in the whole, which either massively sells off stocks or buys them up to maintain the perception that all is well in the American economic scene.
