The first two days of 2024 have not been very peaceful for Japan.
On 1 January At 16:10 local time. An earthquake measuring 7.6 on the Richter scale struck Japan’s Noto Peninsula. By Tuesday (2 January) it had caused a total of 48 deaths, dozens of injuries, power cuts to some 36,000 local households, and disrupted rail and motorway traffic. Tsunamis were observed over a wide area on the Sea of Japan side from Hokkaido to Kyushu, and radioactive water leaked from a nuclear power plant.
Before we looking to more detail of event chart we should understand the background for example Ingress and Eclipse chart.
For both the 2023 Aries ingress and the 2023 Capricorn ingress, Chiron is on the Ascendent. For the lunar eclipse on 29 Oct, Pluto was on IC in Tokyo.
On the 1st Jan the Sun at 10° Capricorn, and it is on the M.C. of Aries ingress chart, also Mars was exactly opposite each other. Mars was the ruler of Ascendent in the Aries ingress chart.
On 2 Jan 17:47 JST, a Japan Airlines plane collided with a Japan Coast Guard aircraft as it landed at Tokyo’s Haneda airport on Tuesday night, forcing hundreds of passengers to evacuate before the jetliner was engulfed in flames.
However, five of the six crew members on board the Coast Guard plane were killed, while the captain is in a serious condition.
Japan Airlines Flight 516 departed New Chitose Airport at 16:27 JST (07:27 UTC). At approximately 17:47 JST (08:47 UTC), the aircraft collided with a Japan Coast Guard DHC-8-315 Dash 8 while landing at Haneda Airport.
When the event occurred Chiron again on Angle on M.C, which is right on ingress charts ASC. Pluto on Desc of event chart.
A few things worth to notice in the transit are
We are under Moon Wobble time until 18 Jan
Mercury stationary on 22 Sagittarius between 31 Dec – 5 Jan
Chiron was stationary at 15 Aries 27′ until 2 Jan
Jupiter was Stationary at 5 Taurus 34′ until 3 Jan and it was change direction on 1Jan.
Mars was out of bound until 24 Jan and it turning from south declination on 4th Jan.
Jupiter Saturn sextile, Mars Neptune Square, Mars Pluto Semi-sextile
Local Space Maps
If we observe Local Space Maps from Tokyo, we will find few indications. For Local space maps of Aries ingress chart, Capricorn ingress chart and Lunar Eclipse chart have Saturn line from Tokyo to Noto Peninsula. The local space map of Lunar Eclipse chart also has Pluto line go south of Tokyo where Haneda airport located.
And for the local space map of full moon of 27 December 2023, Pluto line cross Noto Peninsula.
Morocco earthquake, which caused more than 2000 deaths. It occurred on 8 September 2023 23:11 near the town of Ighil (31N03 8W23) in the region of Marrakech-Safi.
Event Chart
If we study the event chart we will be fascinated by the Uranus on the Ascendent as a planet usually associated with earthquakes and a symbol of tremendous energy released it fits in our view of this type of natural disasters. But if you examine this chart you will find Venus station in Leo conjoint the I.C. also on the angle and rule Ascendant Mercury sesquiquadrate Mercury, never less we have Ascendant on 26 Taurus align with Fixed Star Algol which are usually related with tragic event and never less we have a visible Comet which indicate unpleasant surprise coming to our life.
When we compare transit with Morocco’s country chart, this year we have
Transit South Node pass Morocco’s Neptune,
Transit Uranus opposite country’s Saturn and square country’s Mars Jupiter Pluto. And Early this year Uranus was near M.C most of time.
Transit Pluto opposite Morocco’s Uranus
Transit Neptune quincunx Pluto
Transit Saturn square country’s Mercury and Sun
Super Moon on 31 August
This Super Moon conjunct Saturn in Pisces explains the flooding in Greece Turkey Madrid and Hong Kong, some place event has the landslide issues ( Saturn in Pisces ). in this chart, Saturn is 8th house ruler symbolising crisis and death conjunct with the Moon ( People ), we also have Neptune on the M.C. in Greek mythology Neptune are god of the ocean and his triton can cause earthquakes, Mercury in also a planet related to earthquakes in traditional Mundane Astrology.
Super Full Moon square country’s Sun also the Asc ruler
Solar Eclipse on April 22nd
In this chart you will see that Neptune is again close to the Asc; if we use the capital city of Rabat you will see that Neptune is even closer to the Asc.
If we put solar Eclipse chart on top of country ‘s chart, Mercury conjucnt Uranus on country’s M.C
Lunar Eclipse on May 5th
In this chart we have Mars near M.C, Pluto on I.C square Jupiter on Des, Moon in 1st house opposite Sun and Uranus and Uranus on the 8th house cusps. Venus is 8th ruler square Neptune.
And Lunar Eclipse’s Sun and Moon (concjunt the Uranus ) is right on county’s M.C I.C axis.
Ingress Chart
Usually we check the Aries natal chart first, but in this case there are no significant signs in the Aries natal chart, but if we check the Cancer natal chart we will find that there are. Pluto is again very close to the I.C. quincunx, Sun Moon conjunct Venus 8th ruler, Mars ruler 1st house and square Uranus indicating a sudden change and shocking event.
Cancer ingress chart’s Mars is right on Morocco’s Asc
Astromap
Astromap is a popular skill on social media because you know that if a line crosses the place you live it will have an impact on you. Astromap usually combines two different techniques astro cartography and local space. We apply this on mundane astrology too and usually the outer planet line can suggest some big event related to that place, more over when we draw a chart of capital, the local space line help us identify where the problems related.
A. On the astomap of Super Full Moon, Full Moon and Saturn line pass the region of Marrakech-Safi.
B. On the Astromap based on the Lunar Eclipse chart, the Mars line passes the Marrakech-Safi region.
C. On the Astromap of the Cancer ingress chart again we have Pluto right on the Marrakesh-Safi region.
If I am a local astrologer and read these signs from the ingress chart of the eclipse chart I will consider that the area may face some crisis in the near future, this is not about professional pride but we can perhaps help some people to prepare.
Although all the polls suggest that the Popular Party (PP) will win the most seats in this Sunday’s general election, but still need to work with other party to get right to form the government, their only choice is to share power with the far right part Vox, this indeed happened in Valencia local election last month.
Spanish Prime Minister and leader of the Socialist Workers’ Party (PSOE) Pedro Sanchez calling a snap general election after his party and alliance failed in the local elections has been seen as a huge gamble, but will this gamble pay off? All the analyses suggest that a victory for either side is a knife’s edge.
I have no time to delve into the Spanish electoral system and I should remind myself that I am actually more in favour of a left-wing government and really against the Vox party’s view of opposition to the EU, immigration and LGBTQ and women’s rights, and that I should be careful when judging the chart.
Country’s Chart and Transit
Here I’m using the 1975 chart, the return of the monarchy as the chart of modern Spain, it’s Ascendent is at 3 Aquarius and Pluto is around there, during the local elections in May Pluto was still in 0 Aquarius conjunct the Ascendent and opposite Saturn (chart ruler) representing the concern of the rise of the far right at this moment. This concern is also shown in the chart by the transiting nodal axis approaching the country Chiron in Aries and square transit Pluto, Chiron in Aries could represent the dark history of the Francoist dictatorship.
We should not ignore that transit Uranus conjunct the country’s node gives a very clear sign that people wanted to change, even if there is a risk.
On the evidence of this chart, I believe that Right Wine is likely to replace the current socialist government.
Aries Ingress chart on 21 March 2023
In the Aries ingress chart Spain has Scorpio Ascendant, a fixed sign generally suggesting the country will stay the same, Mars at 27 Gemini square Neptune and the Sun (L10), Mars also trines Saturn ( L4). People are not happy with the government ( L10 ) and favour the opposition party ( PP Vox ).
L10 The Sun in Aries in the 5th house has no friendly aspect and support from sextile Pluto, this could be explained by the fact that Sanchez hopes that the resistance of the Spanish people against fascism will help him to win re-election.
However, Saturn’s opposition in Pisces has no great dignity, but in the 4th house, it forms a sextile with Venus ( popularity ) and Mars ( L1 people ), explaining that PP is gaining power this year.
All in all it looks like the PP has more chance to win, but as a fixed sign in the ascendant does not suggest a major change of the year, will right wine plus far right earn enough seats to form the government? I am not 100% sure.
Cancer ingress chart on 21 June 2023
I usually use Cancer ingress chart to adjust the situation for the events happening in the summer, the Moon Venus in Leo conjunct the M.C, are usually suggest a female leader, the female leaders in this election are the leader of Sumar party and Junta, will they become the key factor of this election? Or the Moon Venus simply suggests that women’s politics is the key to winning elections, in which case it will not help the far right party Vox.
Mars also in the 10th house trine Chiron from the 6th house repeating the wounded history of the Francoist dictatorship may change the result of who will form the government.
Opening the Poll chart
The election will start from Sunday 9 am 23 July 2023, I will use Madrid for this election and 1st house will represent the current government party, 7th house will be the opponent the PP, also I will use 2nd house to represent left wing alliances like Sumar and 8th house to represent Vox as they are ally for PP.
Leo Ascendant and the Sun is the ruler of 1st house, although it is in its own sign but opposite Pluto and located in the 12th houses, this suggests Sanchez’s party are extremity weak, it form a sextile from the Moon in 2nd house, people (Moon) and his allies (Moon in 2nd) may want to give him a second chance.
Mercury rules the 2nd house as the alliance for the current government, although it has no essential dignity, but it is right on the Ascendant, it has the dynamism that the Sun needs, this may be the key to changing the whole situation.
Saturn in Pisces has no essential dignity, but in the 7th house it is more dynamic than the Sun, but it is just opposite Mars recently, suggesting a vulnerable situation. This also fits with the current poll that the PP party will become the largest party in parliament.
Jupiter rules the 8th house representing Vox the far right part it is closely conjunct the M.C and sextile Saturn the L7 and it is the dispositor of Saturn. Vox may gain the power to become part of the government if it works with PP and it will have powerful influence as it is the dispositor of L7.
After analysing both sides, we understand that it is not easy to judge who will become the government by L1 and L7, so we need to consider other factors. Here I will add L10 Venus and L4 Mars as in the traditional technique the 4th represents the end of matter.
Venus as L10, the symbol of victory, is stationary in the 1st house, usually it suggests that the current government is more likely to win the election, but this time it is not very clear because very soon Venus will be retrograde. This could suggest another possibility of re-election as no one has a majority, or maybe it will take a long time to know who is going to form the government.
Mars, the symbol of the end of matter, like Venus, in the 1st house gives the current government more chance to win, although Mars is opposite Saturn but this is a separate aspect, it’s next aspect is trine Jupiter the L8, but I’m not very convinced it will give glory to right wing parties as it is in the 1st house.
Conclusion
The transit on the country chart suggests a change of country, and as current poll suggests that PP will win, but Aries ingress suggests a year of stability and not going to change, also from opening poll chart there is chance that Sanchez will stay in power with help of his allies, if we consider L10 the victory and L4 the end of matter are both in 1st house.
I also have to admit that I have bias and more in favour of left wing, so even at this moment the poll suggests that PP will win and form a government with Vox. I still think there is a chance for left win parties or maybe they will have to run another election as Venus is retrograde in 1st house.
Since Friday night there are many message spare on social medias about Coup in Russia that Wagner Group send back their army to Russia from Moscow aster Prigozhin accused Russian military launching a missile strike on a Wagner base camp.
The important time line of Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin armed rebelling
Friday 23 Local time 21:00 PM ( Ukraine and Rostov-on-Don timezone ) Prigozhin release video on Telegram channel accused Russian military launching a missile strike on a Wagner base camp, killing, he claimed, many fighters.
Friday 23 Local time 21:10 PM ( Ukraine and Rostov-on-Don timezone ) Prigozhin release audio recording on Telegram channel accused Russian military acttck their camp and “ we will decide how to respond to this atrocity the next step “ ( Direct voice translation from google )
Friday 23 Local time 21:27 ( Ukraine and Rostov-on-Don timezone ) Prigozhin and commodore of PMC camp release another audio recoding on Telegram channel “ call for match of justice and any resistance will consider it a threat and destroy
Saturday 24 Local time 7:43
Prigozhin said that “It is 7:30 am now, we are entering Rostov,” in Russia, adding that conscripts had been sent to turn Wagner Group fighters back.
Saturday 24 Moscow time 10:00
Vladimir Putin has responded to the Wagner Group and its leader Yevgeny Prigozhin in a speech to the nation. He said the actions of the rebels was a “betrayal” that will be punished.
Battlefield Chart
I am trying here to apply the technique of battlefield chart, but I am not expert of this technique and reading it in traditional astrology way is another challenge for me. So far I think the 21:27 recoding is a key moment, how ever we don’t have exact place, we know he is in eastern part of Ukraine controlled by Wagner group, timezone will be like Moscow and location should be very close to Rostov on Don because his army appear there before 3 am local time, so I decide to use this place or Mariupol ( 3 hours away by car from Rostov on Don ).
Does not matter Restive on Don or Mariupol we all have Capricorn rising and Pluto is 10-9 degrees away from ASC, Uranus near I.C. A huge sign of rebellion and in the Cancer ingress chart of Moscow Uranus in on Dec ( SO as Ukraine ) This told us that change of situation.
From the view of Battlefiled chart, Prigozhin initiated the action so it is first house ruler of Saturn, Saturn is on 2 house cusps, has only “face” as dignity, Saturn’s dispositor is Jupiter in Taurus sextile with Saturn. However, Jupiter has no dignity and can offer very little help. The Sun in the 6th will trine Saturn very soon, giving support to Saturn even though they are ruled by the Moon ( L7 ), this may explain why some of the Russian military will turn against Putin and help Wagner, however the help from the 6th house Sun control by L7 does not look very helpful.
Moon as 7th represent who Prigozhin is attacking – Putin and Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu, they are represented by the Moon in 3 Virgo, Moon is in its triple sign, getting support from it’s tribe. The Moon is sextile the Sun in the 6th house and is now moving away, explaining that the military are not really helping Putin at the moment. Moon’s next aspect will tine Jupiter in the 3rd, Jupiter is also the ruler of the 11th house, respond to Putin’s alliance in the near country (Belarus, Chechnya, China) with their support, Moon is Jupiter’s exhalation ruler, they respond to Moon’s request for help, again Jupiter in the 3rd house is not powerful. M.C is the symbol of victory, M.C ruler Mars is in 7th conjunct with Venus which is L4 representing end of matter, as the L10 represent victory and L4 end of matter both in 7th house, looks like Putin through 7 house has a bit more advantage. But I am not 100% sure about this as I am not familiar with this technique, and time could be wrong.
One thing we need to remember is that Russia invaded Ukraine on 24 Feb 2022 when Venus conjunct Mars and Pluto and now we have Venus approaching Mars again ready for another conjunction however this conjunction will not be exact because Venus retrograde this conjunction will not be exact until 22 Feb 2024 another triple conjunction with Pluto again. This suggests that the development of the Ukrainian invasion is closely linked to the Venus-Mars cycle and this summer’s conjunction may change the situation but will not give a victory to either side until February 2024.
Agreement or Smoke and mirrors
A few hours after I posted this article, on Saturday afternoon, the whole rebellion changed direction completely, with the intervention of Belarusian President Aleksander Lukashenko, Putin and Prigozhin reaching an agreement.
We don’t have time, but one thing is very important, the initial chart has Moon L7 directly opposite L1, if this indicates the agreement, it suggests the deal will be broken.
Also we are not sure what this agreement is but there are many doubts about the whole mutiny rebellion, this reminds me of the Aries ingress chart of Moscow, Neptune is on the I.C. …remember with this Neptune, things are not always what they seem.
Don’t forget Prigozhin is not a politician, he is against Sergei Shoigu but maybe not against Putin, if he can control the military resources he can allow Putin to sit on the throne as a puppet leader, but there are too many things we don’t know.
And the Libra ingress chart there is Venus on M.C. in Moscow ( also for Ukraine ) Venus is 7th and 12th house ruler, what does that mean ? A peaceful time ? A female leader ? A power control by a foreign country ?
Few hours ago the US coast guard says they find debris in the North Atlantic suggest the submersible Titan missing on Sunday suffered a “catastrophic implosion”.
I study this type incident for really long time, as a mundane astrologer the even time “transit” only help us to “study” not much help for “forecasting”, for forecasting we need to check Ingress chart, Lunation and Eclipse
I will suggest we take a look about important charts of that place the journey departure St John and and maybe capital in this case Capital of Canada Ottawa.
Although it pass the Cancer ingress when the news revealed but the whole OceanGate Titanic Expedition departure on 18 June, at that time the 2023 Aries Ingress still has impact on it, if we look the chart we will find out that on that day Mars is on 27 Gemini and conjunct the M.C of 26 Gemini, both Neptune and the Sun on the Dsc Neptune 25 Pisces and Dsc on 27 Pisces. Interestingly if we compare with Titanic launch chart, it has Mars at 28 Pisces and square Pluto from 26Gemini.
On the April 2023 Solar Eclipse chart of St John’s there is Mars on the Desc at 13 Cancer, and for Ottawa Chiron is right on I.C.
We we look the Astromap with this Solar Eclipse, we will see the Mercury I.C line and Mars Ds line near the location of wreck of Titanic, also the Pluto L.S line pass the same location.
For the 5 may Lunar Eclipse We have Sun conjunct Uranus near Ottawa’s M.C, strangely Venus is again at 27 Gemini square Neptune, no planet on the angle for St. John’s chart
As whole journey began from 16 June, 2 days before next new Moon, I will suggest we have quick look on New Moon on 19 May and we will find out that Saturn conjunct the Des at 9 Pisces
The Ascendant of this Lunar Eclipse chart is at 9 Virgo where the fixed star Alioth align with ecliptic, Elsbeth Ebertin wrote
“In ‘the Tail of the Great Bear’, it is not supposed to have a strong influence on account of its great distance from the ecliptic. However, if Alioth is felt to make an impact, it is Mars like and of a destructive kind.”
We also have Saturn near Asc in the Full Moon Chart
New Moon on the 18 June also has impact as it is the day the Titan Sub dive into Ocean, in the chart we have Chiron on Asc and we know this new Moon has Sun Moon square Neptune.
IN the recent Full Moon chart we For Ottawa Pluto conjunct Asc opposite Venus and Uranus on I.C.
If we look at astomap for the Full Moon we will find that Saturn As line is on the location of wreck of Titanic (41N43 49W56 ) and Saturn L.S line is also very close this location.
New Moon on the 18 June also has impact as it is the day the Titan Sub dive into Ocean, in the chart we have Chiron on Asc, For Ottawa this new moon has Saturn on Asc and we know this new Moon has Sun Moon square Neptune which I think most astrologer agree this is why we are not feel optimistic when the incident revealed .
Incident Event Charts
I try to find the departure time of Titanic Expedition it is very difficult as no exact time form the news, only note the Sub dive time on 18 June, I try to dig out more as my experience of “ Ever Given incident “ tell me that we can always find ship’s port call about their arriving and departure time of port and I found the record of “ Polar Prince “ was chartered by Ocean Gate for this tourist mission. And the record shows that “ Polar Price “ left St. John’s on 16 June 12:10 UTC this is 9:40 for St John’s in the Chart we have Mars on Asc. And Jupiter on the M.C. ( Note in the chart I can not adjust local time to correct timezone ( NDT +2:30 ) so I have to adjust Event time to 8:40 to have correct chart.
If we compare the departure chart of Titanic Expedition 2023 and The launch of Titanic 1911 we will not surprise about their complicated synastry
As we know Transit Neptune is on Titanic ‘s Mars, Transit Saturn on Chiron, Transit Pluto on Uranus. Mercury Moon on the Sun and The Sun of 2023’s departure Chart in on Titanic’s Pluto, The departure time’s Mars and Asc square Titanic’s Saturn.
According most media report, the Titan dive at 12:00 UT 18 June 2023 which is 9:30 for St John and even the location of Titanic Wreck is 370 nautical miles (690 kilometres) south-southeast off the coast of Newfoundland (41N43 49W56 ). but I test it the chart does not change much again we have Mars on Asc and Jupiter on M.C
Looks like Mars play an important role here and we know at this moment Mars square Uranus.And on those couple days Saturn was stationary. When we compare it with the Titanic sink chart we will find the Tr Sun on the Pluto, Tr Moon near Mars, Chiron on North Node, Tr Neptune on the Moon and Tr Saturn on Chiron. Tr Uranus on Saturn, Tr Asc and Tr Mars square Saturn.
Most astrologer know that fixed star Scheat is related to the Titanic as Mars on the launch chart conjunct this Fixed star however, today Scheat’s degree is at 29 Pisces 42’ in this case it is too far from Neptune.
Here I also include Oceangate Inc and CEO Stockton Rush’s chart both Time unknow so I list here
Stockton has Mars opposite Pluto and Chiron, Jupiter Uranus opposition, He has Mercury 25 Pisces on the Titanic launch chart’s Mars ( square by recent new moon ) and his Mars on Titanic Dsc, He has Pluto at 8 Virgo square Titanic’s Sun.
Most media mention that Stockton Rush found Oceangate in 2009 but when I check the register information the company only register on 13th Dec 2011 (13.12.11) also has Mars 16 Virgo opposite Rush’s Mars and Transit Mercury square it too.
Although we don’t have exact time of Titan Submersible’s first dive but we know it is on 12th July 2023 and they announce their success on their way back to St. John’s. in this chart I am so surprise to see that was another Mars Venus conjunction and square Uranus, and very likely the Moon is conjunct with Mars Venus too. Uranus is on Titanic launch chart’s Saturn, The Sun on the Titanic launch Venus, Chiron on Launch chart’s Sedna
Sedna in Gemini
Many of my friends who study Sedna told me that Sedna just moves from Taurus to Gemini on Friday, the day before the Titanic expedition departure, in this chart we have Uranus conjunct M.C. and the Moon, Pluto trine Sedna. Titan Submersible enters Sedna’s realm at this time, for 5 lives, perhaps Sedna is sending her message.
In mythology Sedna suffered from her father and arrogant husband, she died and became goddess of the sea and the underworld, if she is not happy no fisherman will able to catch any fish, So the shaman has to make her happy by combing her hair.
Perhaps this event will change our view of the ocean in everyday’s life, let us study our goddess of the ocean and her awesome power and understand what we have done and how we are going to repair our relationship with the ocean.
A few days ago, SEC in the U.S. sued Binance and founder Changpeng Zhao
( CZ) for operating unregistered exchanges, broker-dealers and clearing agencies, this action cause free fall in Ctyptomarket, few days after SEC sue another crypto giant Coinbase.
Basically, recent legal challenges between SEC and Binance and Coinbase are not focus on one company but whole cryptocurrencies, and this is not only place calling the regulation of crypto-assets, on 2 June European Parliament has finally approved the regulation on markets in crypto-assets (MiCA), alongside the proposed regulation on information accompanying transfers of funds and certain crypto-assets. The aim of the draft regulations is to create a single regulatory framework for crypto-asset markets in the EU, making the EU one of the first major jurisdictions to have formal legislation regulating crypto-assets.
In a recent interview with SEC Chairman Gary Gensler, he told us that this is more than a “regulation”, he said “we don’t need more digital currency, we already have digital currency and it’s called the US dollar, it’s called the euro and the yen; they’re digital now. ” (I will probably start by discussing the difference between cryptocurrencies and digital currencies, but I am not an expert. )
Like most astrologers, in the beginning I want to find out CZ’s birth chart and when was Binance funded, but I soon realised that if this is the general attitude of the SEC chairman towards crypto, no need to check Binana or Coinbase’s chart, because it is about whole cryptocurrencies and it will be related to the beginning of crypto, the bitcoin white paper and the first genesis block.
14 years after Nakamoto created the first genesis block and published the bitcoin white paper, we will notice that 14 years is a half Saturn return, this explain why the pressure on crypto assets is “suddenly” rise, for a human 14 years is teenage at this age we believe that we can do anything, if our parents did not control us we probably already conquer the Mars and move there.
Event We are not sure where Nakamoto created his first Genesis block but we know it was 3 Jan 2009 at 18:15 GMT (according to record from GitHub) He was placed in the headlines of the Financial Times that day in an attempt to give credence to his links to the UK, and speculation by many that he may indeed have been in the UK at the time, but these are speculations and cannot be verified. Many charts have been created from Tokyo, New York, DC to Sydney and many astrologers claim their chart (location) works but I still want to be careful about it, I mostly use the London base chart and mostly ignore the angles but sometimes it does speak to you like this time at this moment Chiron is at 19 Aries right on the Genesis block London base chart’s M.C and what does M.C mean in astrology ? Authority! The wound caused by authority and the day SEC sue Finance Mars was near ASC.
However, I will not rely on unverified London base chart and if this is huge challenge for the whole crypto market it should have other aspects going on in the chat. Bitcoin start to fall on Monday 5th June 2023 10:00 AM ( EDT) it lost 1000 USD and come under $26000. Suppose this is the time the market learned the news of the SEC announcement. If we use New York as location it has Asc on 12 Leo and Mars on 9 Leo conjoint Asc, Jupiter on M.C with Moon’s North Node, Venus just entered Leo and together with Jupiter and Pluto form a fixed T-square. Mercury conjunct Uranus.
If we look at the biwheel of these 2 charts, part of Tr Mars and Tr Chiron we already mentioned, we will also notice that Bitcoin has Jupiter at 29 Capricorn and Mercury at 2 Aquarius, conjunct by transiting Pluto and square by the New Moon degree of the Solar Eclipse in April 2023 at 29 Aries.
The 29 degree is usually described as the Anaratic degree, the word Anaratic is from Greek and can be translated as ‘destroyer’. Jupiter is also in it’s detriment sign here, there is a sense of urge for Jupiter to move away from this last degree of the detriment sign, like people wanting to run away from embarrassment. Also Jupiter’s free quality does not like structured Capricorn environment, some said “It is also hoped that it will become a currency that flows freely around the world and is not subject to government regulation and control”, does this chart fit the description of bitcoin?
As we know that Pluto is moving towards 29 Capricorn for last couple of years, Bitcoin price was fall from historical high $67566 in early November 2021 when Pluto at 24 Capricorn start to conjunct Natal Jupiter, In November 2022, when major cryptocurrency exchange company FTX went bankrupt, bitcoin came to recent low of $15787, that was when Tr Saturn conjoined Natal Chiron and semi sextile Natal Uranus, Neptune conjoined Uranus Tr Jupiter sextile Natal Jupiter at 29 Pisces. It was very close to Lunar Eclipse with in few hours, Sun Mercury conjunct at 16 Scorpio, Sun Mercury opposite Moon Uranus, T square Transit Saturn at 18 Aquarius and Bitcoin Chiron is locate at same degree. Since then Bitcoin rarely go above $30000.
Most crypto experts believe that block chain and cryptocurrencies are the future of our economy, the bitcoin has Jupiter at 29 Capricorn, Saturn at 21 Virgo trine the 2000 Jupiter-Saturn conjunction at 21 Taurus and Uransu was at 21 Aqurius that year. Followed by the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction at 0 Aquarius and Tr Pluto conjunct it now. Look at the big picture, it looks like the whole event is part of a big mutation between the earth element and the air element.
Since 1944 (Bretton Woods Agreement), US dollar dominance has been rooted in the country’s gold reserves, strong US economic and military power, and strong US economic and military power depends on US dollar hegemony. The US global network of military bases, Wall Street bailouts, nuclear missiles and tax cuts for the rich can be financed through the privilege of the dollar. Maintaining the super-privilege of the US dollar has become the primary goal of the United States, and any provocative behaviour against this privilege will be the target of a US strike.
And we are seeing the downside of this domination, some believe that cryptocurrencies, especially bitcoin, can take the place of the US dollar as the world currency, it is possible as it is one of the many possibilities of Uranus in Taurus and Pluto moving into Aquarius.
Don’t forget that the US has just had its Pluto return, and Pluto is at 27 Capricorn in the 2nd house if we use the Sibly chart, it clearly describes the downfall of the US dollar and the current struggle to maintain the US dollar’s dominance as before. The unregulated cryptocurrency will only accelerate this. Bitcoin’s Jupiter on US Pluto can suggest that it has advantage on the weakness of the USD.
However, at this point it has to pass the challenge of digital security and government regulation, Pluto in Aquarius definitely tells us that there is something we don’t know, and this is just the beginning, also when Pluto returns to Capricorn may reveal the dark secrets between governments and large financial institutions. From the chart, we know that Pluto will be moving in and out of 29 Capricorn and ruthlessly crushing Bitcoin’s Jupiter several times before December 2024.
During this time there are a few planetary moments to keep in mind. For example, when Saturn retrograde near 0 Pisces in October 2023 at the same time as transiting Mars square Tr Pluto and Bitcoin’s Jupiter (US’ Pluto), or in December 2023 when both Sun and Mars square Bitcoin’s Saturn opposition to Uranus, at the same time as Tr Pluto on Bitcoin’s Jupiter and Tr Saturn on Bitcoin’s Venus, or perhaps in February 2024 when Tr Mars Pluto conjunct Bitcoin’s Jupiter and Tr Sun is around Bitcoin’s Chiron and Mayne also watch out when Saturn moves near 19 Pisces (April 2024 – April 2025). Could transit Pluto destroy cryptocurrency’s advantages, will it be reborn and get more power after this transit and challenge US dollar dominance?
Here I also include the astro data I found about Changpeng Zhao and Binance, all the data without exact time so I don’t want to use it but it is interesting to look how they related together
Comets always surprise astronomers and astrologers, because they are highly unpredictable. Many of us were not expecting any bright comet to appear in the sky this year, but now we suddenly have one to look at, and it should be easy to observe. You don’t need get up early or sleep late, you can see it after sunset and mostly high up in the sky (for the northern hemisphere). All you need is a good pair of binoculars if you want to see its tail.
Between January to February 2023 the Comet ZTF may become the highlight of the year (and important for astrology forecasting) C/2022 E3 (ZTF) was discovered by the Zwicky Transient Facility on 2 March 2022.
The forecasting says the comet C/2022 E3 ZTF will reach its perihelion on January 12, 2023, at a distance of 1.11 AU, on that day the Sun will be 21º ♑︎ but Comet ZTF will be on 10º ♏︎︎.
According to many resources, we should be able to see comet ZTF with the naked eye between mid January to mid February. The comet’s closest approach to Earth will be on February 1, 2023 and by this time it might reach 6th magnitude and above, and so it will become significant in astrological forecasting (prediction) because it is visible.
update on 18th Jan 2023 : I saw Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF with my eyes without Telescope on the early morning of 15th Jan in Taiwan when comet was between Bootes and Draco ( 7 Scorpio ), I was at the 2000 meters high altitude mountain area with low light pollution. Here is the photo I took on that night.
Around the New Year 2023 Comet ZTF will be at Corona Borealis, the constellation representing Ariadne’s crown given by her husband Dionysus as a wedding gift, it aligned at 16 º ♏︎︎ , at this moment we still can not see it without a telescope or a pair of binocular, in this case I will not consider it’s influence.
You don’t need to get up early to see it.
From around 15th January to 1 February, we may able to see this comet as it brightens at this time. It will be in the north part of the sky moving between the constellations Boötes, Draco, Ursa Minor and Camelopardalis. It will be circumpolar in for high northern latitudes, for places like London you can easily to see it hanging high up in the north east sky after Sunset and reach culminate between 7-10 PM. You can use a stargazing app like star walk 2 to find out more details.
The following forecasting based on the comet’s condition around mid January to mid February, and please notice that in Astrology comet’s influences can usually last for whole year and I will keep it updated if the comet’s condition changes during this time.
Constellations and Fixed Stars
Around 15th Jan Comet ZTF comet will locate at Boötes and align at 7º ♏︎︎. Constellation Bootes represents a farmer holding a plough or the hunter chasing bears with hounds. It is a a leader of transition time with innovation, as the comet becomes visible in this area we can expect discovery of innovative technologies and a strong leader to help people through a difficult transition.
By 22nd January, the comet will move into constellation Draco and stay there until 25th January. Draco, as the dragon protects treasure in the sky, it suggests some event related to protecting important things in our life, protecting treasures or someone, protecting culture, idea or species, there could be important defence action in the news.
Between 26-28 January comet ZTF moves into Ursa Minor. We know here is the north pole of the sky and the centre court of the forbidden city in Chinese astrology. It reminds us we may start to see the world in a different way. We may have new “guide book” to follow or someone giving us a new direction to follow. It will shake our World view. As it passes Ursa Minor “little bear“ (26-28 January) together with next constellation Camelopardalis (29 Jan – 4 Feb) we may expect some shocking news related to the Animal Kingdom and wild life. Do not forget that this is the time when the comet could get very bright and is the best time to view it.
After 4 February comet ZTF moves into Auriga, and it will get very close to Capella on 5th February. In greek mythology Auriga represents the King of Athens, Erichthonius, he is the son of Hephaestus, and was the inventor of chariot. Another story related to this consultation and Capella is the goat goddess Amalthaea (Zeus’s foster mother) who holds and protects a little goat. Some stories also relate Capella with the Goddess Diana. This alignment may suggest important events related to the Car Industry, or techniques to help people move freely, free of movement, protection.
If the forecasting data is right, 10 – 15 February are the last few days we can see comet ZTF, when it move into constellation Taurus. This suggests we should be more careful with, cattle, animal husbandry, agriculture, foods, material, substances, and financial market in 2023, as Comet ZTF last been seen here. It will very close to Aldebaran, also name Facula ” little Torch” , a fixed star with a Mars nature, but by that time it may not visible to the naked eye. If it does then it will become important and significant in astrology as Aldebaran represents the eye of the bull as it stares at the challenger Orion. It reminds us to keep an eye on the enemy or dangerous things and related to integrity, honesty .
Zodiac and Planets
On the day of 12 January when comet ZTF reach its perihelion at 10º ♏︎ ︎, it will align with the Moon’s South Node suggesting decreasing and reduction, maybe production, financial market index or population (this will be very unfortunate). It may suggest that we find a new solution from those techniques that we are already familiar with, or we find a new usage for unwanted objects (Scorpio). Between 18th-24th January, the comet stays in Libra suggesting important events may have impact on legal issues, lawsuits , co-operation, peace making and negotiations. Between 25-26 January, comet ZTF stays in Virgo reminding us to take care of agriculture and services. Comet ZTF in Leo between 27-29 January will have an impact on World Leaders, Royal Families, wild animals, hot weather and heat. Between 29 January and 2 February comet ZTF moves into Cancer, suggesting impacts related to water, ocean, family, land, house and women. Watch out for things related to Leo and Cancer because the comet becomes very bright when it passes these two signs.
Finally the comet will move into Gemini between 2 February to March, disappearing around 10º ♊︎ in mid-February. It may bring us surprise news related to communication, and cars (especially as it also passes the constellation Auriga, the chariot) . Please pay attention on the early morning of 11th February if comet is still visible by the naked eye, as it gets very close to Mars, you may want to watch it, but when it comes to astrological interpretation it suggests we may experience more violence, conflict, war, heat, fire and explosions in 2023, consider the important astrology ingresses in Astrology, Saturn move into Pisces and Pluto move into Aquarius and also those conflicts already happened at this moment between Ukraine – Russia, China – Taiwan, North and South Korea, Israel – Palestine, we can expects escalation of conflicts.
The Ephemeris of Comet C/2022 E3 ZTF ( Generate from NASA JPL Horizons web, arrange by Rod Chang )
According to the Financial Times, Credit Suisse has raised concerns about the bank’s credit and financial health after a sharp rise in interest rate spreads on credit default swaps (CDS Spreads) on last Friday. Investors are worry about could Credit Swiss become next Lehman and lead the finical market to crisis again ?
Yes, it is very likely, as we are going to have several set of aspects indicate critical time on economic. First indication is that economy move downward when North Moon node comes to Taurus, and than Jupiter Saturn semi square set up first challenge to lay a ground for future , Saturn Uranus square still hanging there, and soon will have Mars stationary , retrograde and out of bound, Saturn Station, Moon wobble in end of Oct .
But Why Credit Swiss ? Could it’s company chart give us some idea ?
According the Credit Swiss own website, it was funded on 5 July 1856 by Alfred Escher in Zurich.
As we don’t have exact time, so I use Noon chart.
It has Uranus sextile Neptune, Jupiter Square Saturn, Jupiter semi square Uranus, Neptune semi square Pluto, Pluto square Chiron, its Mercury at 26 Gemini align with Fixed star Betelgeuse and square Neptune. And this year we have Neptune sextile Pluto, Jupiter semi square Saturn in the transit. Previous Lunar Eclipse on 25 Taurus is very close to Uranus in the company chart.
Credit Swiss just has their Neptune return and at same time facing Uranus return too, it suggest a huge transformation, as both planet also form a sextile and this set of aspect going to repeat again after 166 year.
TR Uranus square Moon at 20 Leo
TR Pluto Quincunx Mercury suggest adjustment and quincunx is a critical aspect for financial astrology, very easy to bring crisis. Also never ignore Chiron is 4 degrees Aquarius and will threat by Tr Pluto when it move into Aquarius.
TR Saturn Uranus square from a Fixed T square with Moon in credit Swiss chart
TR Mercury Neptune Mars Mutable T square on N.Mercury
TR Mars retrograde and stationary from 25 Gemini, right on N. Mercury, this suggest situation will get more seriously by the time aoround 21 October when Mars nearly stationary, also that will be Mars O.B + near eclipse season Eclipse on 2 Scorpio will opposite Credit Swiss’ Pluto and Square Chiron.
TR Chiron opposite Mars and Tr Chiron is getting close to Moon Node
Let us also check Solar Arc direction, in this method I use 2 degrees orb.
SA Pluto is on N.South Moon node suggest destructive event going to happen and SA Pluto also square Chiron, Chiron is wound, it is like a hammer on the weakest point
SA Neptune sextile Saturn and SA Saturn Square Neptune, these sets aspect bust the bubbles and very unfortunately Credit Swiss has both set aspect between the SA chart and company chart. SA Neptune also quincunx Chiron and SA Moon conjoint Chiron … this tell us the crisis is very likely going to hit Credit Swiss soon.
5th Republic comes to Uranus waning cycle Tr Uranus square Nt Uranus, Suggest French people are expecting a change. Also Saturn triune Node suggest they need a strong authority figure to protect them.
5th Republic chart’s
Solar ArcChiron on Asc, suggest people are woundedUranus on Dec, Huge change is coming.Neptune on M.C a weak leader or a leader give you a dream like ( MAGA type ) or a lair ?
Put all togetherThey want to change and make different …Will Marie Le Pen offer a change ? YesBut does this change is what exactly they want ? I am not sure.
Candidate chart with 5th Republic
Macron
Macron has 28 Capricorn on Asc, the Transit Pluto stationary there, not a great sign, in one way is suggest Macron will be very un popular and in another way this suggest whole country step into crisis, if he become a leader.Transit Uranus on his Natal Moon , another change … but if he is already president what will change for him ?Solar Arc Uranus at 29 Sagittarius conjunct Macron’s Sun another indication of Huge change in his life, and Pluto on M.c since 2019 Solar Arc Saturn conjunct Pluto, face his fear and scandal will comes out.
Macron and 5th Republic
Moon aspect ( how people feel about Macron )Pluto widely square Moon in 5th Rep : People can feel he is hiding something , people does not like him .
Uranus trine Moon : Offer an opportunity to change welcome by middle class
Tr Chiron on Dec, and N.N …challenge from outside or play a victim role of country
Venus Jupiter Neptune opposite her Pluto: Try to soften her weakness point, trying to make up
Tr Uranus square the Sun , Huge change of life , cut off from man or father ( The Moon on election day trigger this. Will be a victory or life changing for her)
Solar Arc Venus just pass Asc , Very popular sign.
Solar Arc Mars on Pluto Solar , to fight and to protect her deepest fear
Solar Arc Chiron Square Venus : Wounded woman wounded daughter
Le Pen’s solar return chart has Uranus on M.C suggest a huge change in her life.
LePen and 5th Republic
Her Saturn on 5th rep’s Node and ASC. Also square 5th rep Moon : In one way offer protection in another make people dislike her.
Her Pluto square 5th Saturn : describe far right and xenophobia image
Her Venus trine Saturn : Her Value are welcome by some people who need protection
Her Sun conjcutn 5th rep Uranus : She maybe play a hero when people feel need to change.
Both Macron and LePen share similar image when come pare with 5th Republic chart, there is no one better than another , they both bring threat but can give hope for change something.
Opening of Polls on 24 Apr 2022 8am Paris Contest chart
Asc 2 Gemini Des 2 Sagittarius Mc 2 Aquarius Ruler of 1st Mercury represent Macron Mercury on 23 Taurus 30 No essential dignity In the 12th house weak influence Squaring Saturn from 10 and Saturn is L10 L9 Sextile Jupiter from 11th Jupiter L7 L8 ( sextile Neptune and Trine Pluto ) Mercury conjunct NN not most important but still helpful As Mercury has no essential dignity We may check it’s disposer Venus Venus in Exaltation in 11th and sextile Mercury it will help Macron get support’s help even they dislike him.
Will Le Pen successful challenge and win ?
LePen’s opportunity L7 Jupiter in 26 Pisces in the Rulership L7 Jupiter in 11th good luck house of good spirit Venus conjoint Jupiter and ruled by Jupiter really going to help from working class. Jupiter ’s first aspect is sextile Pluto than sextile Mercury Pluto in 9th News medial Mercury media … forger medial social medial help Le Pen Mercury represent Macron … L7 represent Le Pen has good dignity and locate in good house meet Venus , this must be her best shot to win.
Macron’s opportunity L1 represent Macron has no dignity and in 12th, where can not have influence only rely on dispositior ’s help ( Supporters, Sponsors ). L6 Venus support both candidate, although they like Le Pen more. ( Ruler by Jupiter L7 ) however it contact L1 Mercury ( Macron ) first. This suggest for some reason they change their mind and give power to Macron before they can reach LePen . Moon’s next aspect square Uranus and square Mercury after. Also L10 represent wining of this election it contact Mercury but can not see Jupiter Saturn play a crucial role here, it is ruler of M.C and 10 House, the house represent authority and victory. It aligns with Deneb Algedi the tails of Goat Capricorn, today’s position at 23 AQ 51 ( Saturn at 23 AQ 52 ) According Dr. Brady is a law maker and leader’s star According Robson It is said to cause beneficence and destructiveness, sorrow and happiness, and life and death. [Robson, p.159.] Saturn in AQ has dignity and in 10th house have influence, and only 1 minutes away from this fixed stars. It is term ruler for Mercury ( L1 represent Macron ) and aspect it. Bonatti say if a significator here will be the most Strong Secret Helper. In this chart Saturn sextile Mercury will offer great help to Macron.
The contest chart tell us Le Pen has big change and gain popularity however the secret helper give unpopular Macron a favour, like a king maker or a group of king makers help him to win the election.
We are expecting to see Comet Leonard (C/2021 A1) with unaided eyes between now to 23 Jan 2022 . Some other data suggest we can see it from 2nd Dec – 6th Jan 2022, but so far we still can not see it without telescope.
It passed Canis Venatici, Coma Berenices, Bootes constellation. Now it is going form Serpens, to Ophiuchus, Sagittarius and disappear at constellation Microspocium. According NASA’s data we have it will reach maximum magnitude 4 between 10-22 Dec, and maybe reach its maximum magnitude on 13th Dec, hopefully we can see it without telescope.
However what I am curious is that 0n the 16th Dec it will conjunct fixed Stars Aldalbah. The name comes from comes from the Arabic بلدة bálda “the town “.My observation of this Stars is usually related to political conflict or important political decision , important time of civilisation or “ city “ , also related to the mass violence events or disruption and panic in peoples live .
If you want to know more about this Stars check what shit happened in 2016 because Pluto was conjunct Aldalbah whole year .. ( Yes, because this star is 1º 26 Declination so Planet can really ” conjunct ” or ” Eclipse ” it. ) Comet Leonard C/2021 A1 will reach its perihelion on 3 Jan 2022 at 15 Aquarius. All this information is forecasting and if you know comet, you know they are unpredictable, yes they broken my heart so many times lol. I will keep updating
