Further Spring-Summer Global Karmas

The May 2 Celestial Wheel converted the Spring-Summer Timeline into a World Transits sign chart.  Both are useful tools -- the former to see the the planetary karmas ebbs and flows and the latter to identify specific karmas. 

The ensuing Global Predictions analyzed Jupiter, Rahu, Saturn and the Mars/Ketu conjunction. 

  It concluded, Put the pieces together -- overreaching stock investors, destructive competi-tiveness, violence in the U.S. and Iraq, another oil/gas price spike, a deepening grain crisis, the real estate debacle continuing -- all precipitated on or about June 13.

Spring -- Summer Timeline

The April 25 Celestial Wheel published the below Spring-Summer Timeline, stating, ...there's a burst of activity at the end of this month and into early May.  Then, there's a calm interval until late May.  Then, the karmic complexities arise again. 

 

Global Predictions

...Rahu, together with Jupiter's undue optimism, gives a potent karma wanting and expecting too much - overreaching.  ...Constrictive Saturn remains in this sign of Leo, which must continue to dampen the stock markets globally.  ...The risk here is to read too much into minor economic improvements as the  bigger picture becomes more challenging. 

...Fiery Mars combining with fiery Ketu signals a conflagration.  As Ketu is a spiritual influence, when it combines with warrior Mars, seething anger results.  ...As specifically mentioned, real estate is harmed by Mars/Ketu.  Ketu is also gas and oil, and The Celestial Wheel has correctly forecasted oil/gas price peaks when Ketu has been afflicted.  These predictions include peaks from 2004 onward (See the June 11, 2007 Celestial Wheel), plus  the last two peaks last fall and this winter/spring.

The Tough Winter

And Spring Transits Are

Nearly Over

The strenuous and long-lasting transits of Saturn conjunct Ketu (the tail-of-the-dragon eclipse point) and Mars opposite Jupiter are nearly over. 

Mars will transit (shift) out of Gemini and into Cancer April 28, and Ketu will follow in separating from Saturn by transiting into Cancer May 4. 

Everyone has been touched, and some slammed hard, by these transit combinations in some way.  These stresses have the unanticipated benefit of bringing people closer together.  It's the tough times that make us feel our humanity, which then stimulates empathy for others as we recognize common interests in our towns and neighborhoods.

Spring Fever

The March 28 Celestial Wheel opened with recognizing spring has arrived, although a caution caveat was added that this upcoming month of April will continue Mars/Jupiter and Saturn/Ketu challenges.

     As nature begins her annual revival, spring fever stimulates us to go outside and have fun, fix things in our lives and launch projects. -- at least clean up the leaves and branches and plant some flowers.  After all, this long and cold winter has kept everyone cooped up for too long!  

 

The Long And Winding Road

As the first warm sunny weather came to Sedona, I heard on the radio this old plaintive Beatles ballad.  It felt like a dark cloud had suddenly covered the Sun, denying nature's springtime revival -- sending us all back to winter hibernation.

The Long And Winding Road was written by Paul McCartney in 1970.  Listen and watch it here on YouTube, The Long & Winding Road

The U.S. chart's Dasa (planetary cycle) then was tail-of-the-dragon eclipse point Ketu.  Malefic Ketu being placed in the 2nd house of domestic harmony denies happiness, whether at home or in the

outer world.

Predictions ForThe New Year

 

Karmic Underpinnings

     The last two Celestial Wheels discussed how Vedic Dasas (planetary cycles) signal that Second Gilded Age abuses and excesses continue until a major depression around 2012.

False Hopes

     There's another fundamental quality about the United States' greedy ten year Moon cycle (ending December 1, 2008) -- believing the monied elite will easily relinquish their power.  That is absolutely disingenuous.

Good Karma

     In revealing that Gilded Age social, economic and political stratification -- an elite gains at the expense of the rest of us -- continues for many years, it's only practical to suggest financial conservation.

Through The Second
Gilded Age

This is a periodic In-depth Forecast, originally intended to analyze the U.S. chart's prospects for the final year of this 10 year Second Gilded Age.  That final year coincidentally begins today, December 1.   It is the first In-depth since the June 3, 2007 Bush Presidency Update

However, as often occurs when unveiling hidden karmic currents, results did not match the hypothesis -- that the U.S. economy will likely collapse during the next twelve months.  Instead, the research lead to a different scenario, one in which the U.S. survives this Second Gilded Age -- only to later fall into a severe depression resulting from Gilded Age excesses.
