Radio Show Friday June 20^th: Something BIG is Happening

OUR FULL MOON June 18^th; OUR SOLSTICE June 20^TH

This Wednesday’s Full Moon is the one I’ve been talking about for the past month. This is the one that is related to two other major charts (the Solstice, and the Venus return for the USA chart), all occurring this week on Wed and Friday.

In previous email updates I’ve mentioned that we could see a truckers strike. As you may already know, Spain and France are already in the midst of a truckers’ strike which started last week. The price of a gallon of diesel in Spain and France is $7.71 and $8.62 respectively. The truckers are protesting that the price of diesel has increased over 40% in the past year. We’ll see what happens here. It certainly could spread to the U.S. The Solstice chart for the USA certainly looks like a strike is highly possible in the area of transportation.

Remember that there are other possibilities too, such as a longshoremen strike. That would pretty much close down the ports and that could be almost as bad, since so much of what we purchase comes from other countries.

In either case, (possible truckers’ or longshoremen strike), it’s a good idea to overbuy your essential supplies, like groceries, toilet paper, and other necessities, just in case we really do have fewer supplies available. Remember that grocery stores only have 3 days of supplies on their shelves. Check in with yourself to see if you are getting messages to overbuy or stock up on certain items. At the very least, it will save you money later, as prices continue to go up to cover the higher cost of transportation. Whether or not a major transportation strike happens, you’ll be set for awhile.

The basic nature of this Full Moon is one filled with the possibility of revealing secrets, particularly of corrupt leaders [(Sun conjunct Hades) opposite (Moon conjunct Pluto)], and/or creating power plays concerning transportation or communications. The Wall St Journal also reported recently on the possibility of the Screen Actors Guild going on strike, which would certainly impact television communications. Their contract lasts through June 30^th, but a strike vote would take more time than that.

Lastly, regarding the secrets of leaders, I’ve often thought it was odd that there were never any charges for 9-11 or the anthrax cases. The anthrax cases were even traced to a government facility and that’s where the story ended. We may never know the truth about either of these cases, but if ever there was a time when a smoking gun could appear, this would be the time.

For those of you who did not read my newsletters as long ago as 2001, the chart for September 11^th showed that the real attackers were very, highly regarded business and/or political leaders, past and present. Those leaders showed up as being in the U.S., not in foreign countries or foreign leaders. This was a blatant aspect of the chart, not something obscure (Mars ruling the 7^th house, in Capricorn, conjunct the South Node, and in the 3^rd house). Of course we don’t yet have that smoking gun which could tie those leaders to 9-11, but maybe we will soon.

It’s hard to say how the next few weeks will all play out. Just remember that whatever happens is for the best. Whatever is coming to light now needs to be seen and understood. And remember that the reason we’re seeing these things coming to light now, (besides the Full Moon) is that there is more light on the planet now. So secrets have fewer places to hide. It’s not that there’s more corruption. It’s just that we now SEE the corruption that used to be hidden. Hang in there for the next few weeks. It’ll be an interesting ride.

ECONOMIC UPDATE

The planet Venus, the primary indicator of financial news, has been extremely busy in the past week. She’s been trine Chiron, for some very good financial news. She’s been square Uranus, for unexpected financial news (like Lehman Brothers announcing their $2.8 billon loss for the quarter). She’s also been trine Neptune (great for art, movies, glamour, dancing, spiritual or inspirational events) which makes it easy for your money to just disappear into thin air.

Now Venus is opposite Pluto and not just for a few days. She’s opposite Pluto for the Full Moon, the Venus return in the USA chart, and for the Solstice. This means the impact of this relatively short cycle will be with us until July 4, 2009, (when the USA chart gets its next Venus return).

What does that mean? Venus in challenging aspect to Pluto indicates that major financial problems are coming to light. It’s already starting to show up with the Lehman Brothers quarterly loss for $2.8 billion that was expected to be in the millions. This cycle could also be related to the report that two of the past Bear Stearns managers are being investigated and may be charged soon for investor fraud. Plus a recent Wall St Journal article suggests that many stocks are now appropriately valued, meaning this may be as good as it gets in the stock market for awhile.

Whenever there’s an opposition, we find a situation where the “rubber band has been stretched to its limit”. This is the situation with the financial scene. The Wall St Journal recently reported that analysts expect 150 banks to fail in the next three years. The Feds have already closed four banks this year (the last three year average was one per year), and they have National City Bank on probation. Investors are also in the process of starting to sue banks and other lending institutions to repay their investments for the poor loans that the banks made. This is legal and is being done.

Venus and Pluto also represent debts and this could suggest that the country’s debts are at their maximum stretch. Since this cycle is occurring in the 5^th and 11^th houses, it suggests that we might be seeing the maximum level of debt that can be sold as bonds or other securities in the markets. For the next year, it may become nearly impossible to sell debt. And we are likely to see the stock market take a downturn if we do have a truckers or longshoremen strike. And if major secrets are revealed about leaders, this may also send the stock markets plunging. So if you’re in stocks, now is a good time to pay attention and take defensive actions.

The chart for the USA Chart Venus return shows a lot of deceptive actions coming to light (Mars in the first house, opposite Neptune in the 7^thand both square to Admetos in the 10^th house). It may take us by surprise all the ways that we’ve been duped. There’s no hiding these deceptive actions any more. Watch the news to see how many deception or financial corruption stories are reported.

Again, if you have not checked your bank rating at www.bankrate.com . I recommend you do that. (Under Hot Topics, they have a link for Check Your Bank Ratings which is also right here: http://www.bankrate.com/brm/safesound/ss_home.asp )
