The July 5 -7 Mars/Rahu Conjunction
July 3, 2005

 

The G8 Economic Conference 
     I've been slowly zeroing in on specific predictions for the July 5 -7 Mars/Rahu conjunction -- a culmination of a rising tide against the iron grip of the neoconservative/evangelical alliance. (Reference the five 2005 In-Depth Forecasts in the Forecast Archive.)

     Thus far, I've predicted Mars/Rahu bringing a religious violent event (or events) July 5 -7 that triggers a real estate downturn during Mars' subsequent six month transit through Aries beginning July 17.  I've also stated in Celestial Wheel commentaries that G.W. Bush is intimately involved with this turmoil and that he: is facing increasing resistance at home and abroad, is beset with enemies, will experience some sort of re-birth, may lose his temper and that Iraq is his great misadventure.  Finally, I connected Rahu's signifying aircraft with the large number of unusual aircraft incidents since the Mars/Rahu conjunction began June 6.

     Mars/Rahu signifies great desire, gripping me to determine the specific nature of its harms at conjunction.  However, does this inflamed desire propel an audacious risky prediction, or does it stimulate research to unveil the truth?  Also, doing insightful work now in the cacophony of Mars/Rahu is like trying to meditate while sitting in the front row of a rock concert. 

     Research located Joni Patry's June article, Danger for America and President George W. Bush, generally dovetailing with my findings.  Next, I read that G.W. and Laura Bush will travel to the G8 economic conference in Edinburgh, Scotland July 5 to 7  -- matching exactly the Mars/Rahu collision.  

     Next, Subscriber D.W in England replied to my inquiry, The papers here say that the anti-globalization protesters are planning to be their in force.  Apparently a castle has been reserved as a stronghold for the leaders if things get out of hand - things don't change much historically, do they?  Refer The Times today which has a story.  This June 30 TimesOnline article, If mob overruns Gleneagles, G8 delegates will take refuge in castle, reports a massive and forceful protest effort.  (The Live 8 concert must further inspire protest.)  This confirms the G8 conference as the Mars/Rahu epicenter..  Further,.itv.com reports today in Edinburgh swamped for G8 rally, 120,000 have arrived in Edinburgh, 20,000 more than predicted.

     I then checked Bush's Astrocartography to find he has a powerful Rahu birth line 360 miles west of Scotland and a Ketu/Venus latitude crossing line just 18 miles from Edinburgh.  (Venus' signification for vehicles his harmed by Ketu, and Rahu is aircraft.)

 

 

Specific Predictions
     By simply integrating this information, five karmas emerge:   

     (1)  The Edinburgh G8 conference is an epicenter* for the Mars/Rahu energy release.

     (2)  G.W. Bush will be at risk for violence involving aircraft.  

     (3)  Protestors will stir up the delegates against Bush and perhaps drive the delegates into the castle.  

     (4)  Conference delegates will attack Bush verbally, to which he will bristle and be powerless to refuse. 

     (5)  Bush will return to the U.S. isolated from the world community and blocked by opposition at home. 

(*Mars/Rahu would also express itself in other locations  -- such as U.S., Iraq and Saudi Arabia, whose charts are afflicted now.)

 

Vedic Chart Analysis
Below are charts for World Transits, G.W. Bush and Laura Bush, providing additional detail.

 

    This chart shows the placements of the planets in the sky on July 7, described in the In-depth Forecast, #62 At No So Far Horizon.

     On July 7, Mars will have moved into Pisces to be conjunct Rahu, a combination of excessive religious desire and violence.  Opposite Mars/Rahu will be Jupiter/Ketu, the doubled-up religious influence.  These planets all aspect each other, and as Mars' projective energy catalyzes events, a religious-inspired catastrophe could occur at that time.  Restrictive Saturn's position in the fourth house suggests real estate would be harmed.

     Note that this configuration is similar to 9-11, when Mars was conjunct Ketu in Sagittarius, and Jupiter was conjunct Rahu in Gemini.

World Transits For July 7, 2005

 

 

     The negative planetary karmas afflicting Bush were listed above.  

     Refer to the planetary cycles listed under the chart graphic. 

     Bush's nineteen year Saturn cycle is ending, signifying inevitable scandal and downfall.  Current afflictions to Jupiter stimulate its significations for enemies and foreign travels.   The Sun indicates career, prestige and health and is placed in his twelfth house of loss.  

     Overlay the World Transit chart upon Bush's to see transit impacts. 

     Violent Rahu/Mars are transiting his ninth house of long journeys.  They aspect his critical third house of desires, where the Moon and Jupiter are placed.  Dissolving Ketu sits on his Moon (and Jupiter too), harming his image, body and desire fulfillment.  The Sun is in his twelfth house of loss. 

G.W.  Bush

Saturn/Jupiter/Sun Planetary Cycles

July 2 to August 8

 

 

    Again, refer to the planetary cycles listed under the chart graphic.

     Laura's new Venus cycle brings calamity to herself  and to relationship for it's position in the eighth house.  Jupiter, the husband, rules the twelfth house of loss and is combust (burnt) by her fallen Sun.

     Again, overlay the World Transit chart upon Laura's to see transit impacts. 

     Mars/Rahu are transiting the twelfth house of loss.  Mars aspects Jupiter, the husband.  Ketu and Jupiter are in the sixth house of enemies and illness, where they are aspected by Mars.

     Laura's planetary cycles and transits thereby indicate both she and her husband are at risk both physically and to their reputations.  Recalling the September 3, 2004 In-Depth Forecast, #55  The Keel Under George's Boat, G.W. would be lost without her support.

     These Vedic charts reinforce the five predicted karmas listed above.

 

Checking In With The Psychics
     My final research was to query intuitives by e-mail, asking, Are you getting anything on Bush's July 5 -7 trip to Edinburgh Scotland for the G8 economic conference?  Please let me know, one way or the other.  This is really important.  Because nearly all of these folks are not Subscribers, they aren't influenced by my forecasting.  Also, as these insights came in after I had done almost all the Vedic analysis, they are a good check.

     I judged that the subtle awareness necessary for the intuitives to connect would be obscured by the intense Mars/Rahu desire nature.  Almost all replied.  Half didn't see anything.  Below are eight responses.  (Note: the last expresses Mars/Rahu wrath.)  Keep in mind these responses are only about the G8 trip, although one did see fatigue requiring rest.  They also don't respond to any events in the U.S., which Bush will come home to.  I ask readers to draw your own conclusions from this additional material.

 

 

1)  Yes, something negative will happen.  It will be a tough time for Bush.  Some violence.  Nothing specific yet.

2)  I haven’t concentrated on the issue, but as soon as I read your question I did get the image of a plane exploding in the air.

3)  I'm not really sure about global events.  But I see darkness around that time. I see someone trying to attack Bush.  I see a bomb, but those things these days are common around this president and his politics.

4)  So far the only thing that comes to me is..... 7-7-2005...which is 7-7-7... kind of like 9 - 11....

6)  I see Bush in signing a document to please someone, to placate them.  He uses a feather pen.  But it has no substance, is just fluff.  There's no truth energy behind it.  I also see two "bomb" incidents close to his airplane and/or car and involves protestors down the street.  Bush is not harmed.  When he returns to the U.S., he will need to rest to recover from the trip. Bush is like a naive little boy.  (This text was corrected 7/5 to omit the plumed hat and change the explosion to two bomb incidents.)

7)  Past attitude of being kicked.  Ready to fight and retaliate.  Little son with big stick and big ideas -- a vision connected to his beliefs.  Waiting for the last piece, but stuck.  Lost his rhythm.  Doubting the process, doubting his luck.  Faith is wavering.  Trip outcome lucky.  End of something so something new can begin. Pagan ritual -- secret behind-the-scenes support.  Only insiders know, but success.

8)  It is really fantastic what Imagination can come up with... So the question you give to me is one of those I consider as a leading question.  It would really be easy to tune in to your usual negative (sorry) response to President Bush's life, and by doing that my answer would likely be wrong....

However, when I try to look into it I would say that Bush is going with the flow that comes from higher dimensions ( you will probably say "WHAT"  ???)  This guy has some pretty high goals of serving his country (at the same time I have never seen any other government emptying the cash register as fast as these guys.)

When he goes on his journey this time I am seeing a beautiful Angel guiding him,  The Angel is speaking about new life, renewed hope and a second chance.  She is representing Bush's right to receive the Divine Guidance as a leader of this nation.

Bush has a willingness that very few other leaders has been able to show and his religious insights and fanatism makes him reach for the stars and for Divine guidance, in a sense he is very much like a boy trusting God.
I had no idea that Bush was going to Europe,  I am not really interested in his doing, but I pray sincerely for him instead of using my energy to attack him.

   

     It will be interesting to see how the Mars/Rahu conjunction actualizes compared with these predictive efforts -- both my Vedic predictions and the psychics' insights.

     Although the Mars and Rahu begin to separate after July 7, they continue in Pisces together until July 17. July 11 is a sensitive date for Mars then crossing the 25 degrees point in Pisces, where the April 8, 2005 Solar eclipse occurred.  So, there's continuing planetary pressures.

     In closing, keep in mind that Mars/Rahu is the trigger about which Mars and Saturn battle from July 17 to early February, 2006.
