(Updated Feb 2007)
Close Encounters with Iran: End of February and beg. March 2007 is a nightmare period for Iran's Ahmadnijad and the whole 60s age group (including Lebanon Hezbullah's leader Nasrullah). We can expect America to step up its dangerous rhetoric against Iran during this period and possible even some air force activity. However, the air force forecast is due to Mars in Aquarius making adverse aspect with Neptune. This stelium in the sky is being opposed by Saturn indicating suffering of the masses, deep insecurity, major scandals and subversive plans and deception (sounds familiar?!). Events will be planned around end of Jan. 2007 when Dick Cheney and George Bush's charts show underhanded activities and not being able to separate truth from fantasy.
The danger to Iran becomes less after beg. of Mar.2007. However, Ahmadnijad will be very defiant in the first two week of April 2007 as well. The next dangerous dates are end of June and beg. July 2007, but is seems some global event happens which always helps Iran at the last minute!
Ahmadnijad's sense of fairness has been violated and that is the only time Mercury in Libra reacts. His position is "why should Iran not have nuclear power when others do" and he has never changed it. His chart, like Putin of Russia, shows the ability to make positive changes in the lives of the masses and 2007 is one of the best years for both of them for longterm strategies. Both Iran and the Russian leader Putin have Mercury in Libra conjunct Neptune and play every move like a chess game. They are both intellectual (Ahmadnijad has a PhD in civil engineering) while Bush is just action oriented and not into discussions at all. With a democratically controlled senate, Bush is going to be more and more desperate and consequently more dangerous as he tried to push the neuron agenda in expanding the war.
The U.S. has no business being in the Middle East and they have made Iraq much more dangerous place than it was in Saddam's time. As we had mentioned even before the first Gulf War, Iran will become much stronger and have closer ties to the Southern part of Iraq. George Bush has Saturn coming down in his chart and will leave the office in disgrace and in bad health. His policies (or rather the neocon policies) will not be successful and as we have predicted before, the troops will be out by end of 2008.
Glen Beck, whose chart is similar chart to Rush Limbaugh and both have had similar drug problems and outdated, anti-Muslim views, will try his best to put fear mongering in the hearts of Americans and by bringing in Netanyahu to fool the public in believing that the world is about to end if they don't act against Iran!
Neptune in Aquarius for many years: Hypoallergenic white cat created! The color white is Aquarius and Neptune represents small animals and pets! Some fascinating inventions combining the analog and the digital world (Steve Jobs chart) will be coming in the market very soon. Morphing technology to take any actor's movements and synch them with any actor is the next big invention just on the horizon. I made the prediction about digital actors around these few years in my predictions several years ago. Another fantastic invention will be in speech technology. With Jupiter in Sagittarius, we will have some of the best educational games coming out in the market and gadgets ranging from the revolutionary iPhone to film cameras available to any young director, to home videos flooding Google and You tube etc.
The Stock Market: The most volatile dates for the stock market are exactly the ones laid out for Iran above! end of Feb. and Mar. 2007 are also very stressful for Apple's Steve jobs, who is getting some very favorable transits from Jupiter which will bail him out. However, we feel that he know about the stock options as he was getting the Mars-Neptune transit in Oct. 2006, which makes people get into scandalous situations and sets them up for betrayal and disappointments alter on. He has to be very careful of legal matter from mid Feb. and mid Mar.2007 when Apple's stocks could be down also. However, generally, even with Saturn opposing Neptune and feelings of mass insecurity, Jupiter in Sagittarius promises an optimistic market, even though it may not be realistic.
Astro-Insight: It is interesting how famous people born close to each other have show similar timing for fame. Red Kennedy (22 Feb.2932), Liz Taylor (27 Feb.1932) and Johnny Cash (26 Feb.1932) were born very close to each other and all had to deal with intoxication and escapist tendencies. however, Liz Taylor and Johnny Cash were born within a day to each other and had many parallels in their lives. Ted Kennedy has Mercury in Aquarius and is very intellectual and very articulate.
