Charts of the main active astrological aspects 2008: .

The main Time Frames 2008: It begins very positive! Attempts to sort out some of the chaos left behind by the year of the Fire-Pig should be done on broad fronts and yield considerable improvements for all. In fact, positive advantages are guaranteed, the strength and spirit of a new cycle can be felt during the entire first half of 2008! However, steadfastness and reliability will be hard to find as everyone is trying to get ahead anyway they can. Middle of August to end of September could almost be called perfect, but the final stages of 2008 bare some tense times with complications in socializing or to revolutionary attitudes trying to solve problems that don’t really exist, however, for professionally and responsibly acting people also the later stages of 2008 will continue to guarantee advancements on all fronts, provided that conservative attitude is applied.

Upfront: Pluto start’s it’s transit years through the astrological sign of Capricorn - while also Jupiter starts it’s much shorter transit through the same astrological sign - while also the 12 year cycle comes to an end and a new cycle will start with the Chinese astrological year of the Earth-Rat. An era of realism and controlling organizations will emerge during the next 15 years!

The events during 2008 in detail::: Predictions for the first half of 2008 Pluto positive to the Moon nodes - already active, lasts until 13. March Good for publicappearances, usually attractive and even well known. Successful in anysort of Involvement with common interests. Involved degree positions: (the major ones only) 0º Capricorn Friendly, humorous, always trying to be reasonable but aware of the fact that there are also things happening without any reason at all. Tendency to work a lot. 1º Capricorn Good sense for people, understand they’re faults and weaknesses very well. Don’t want to hurt anyone though, giving everyone a new chance, over and over again. Jupiter positive to Uranus - 12. Feb. to 8. July Living an outgoing social live, but shying away from steady relations, desire to be on the move, travel around and learn new things. Fortunate Intuition that makes it rather easy to find new ways to make money, or to gain something with speculations or find exiting love affairs. Could become leaders under the protection of someone behind the scene perhaps, and would create a lot of new social or technical revolutions. Saturn positive to Pluto - 18. Feb. to 1. July Brave and tough, simply lasting longer than most others, understanding for structures and numbers, capable of managing and handling whole organizations with relentless concentration and efforts People on a Mission, creating new structures where necessary, leaving a mark on whatever they do or whom ever they get involved with. If the outcome of all these efforts will be that profitable in the end may be another question. Involved degree positions: (the major ones only) 0º Capricorn Friendly, humorous, always trying to be reasonable but aware of the fact that there are also things happening without any reason at all. Tendency to work a lot. 1º Capricorn Good sense for people, understand they’re faults and weaknesses very well. Don’t want to hurt anyone though, giving everyone a new chance, over and over again. Neptune in conjunction with the Moon node - 4. March to 14. August Sometimes rather asocial, undecided, unstable, or even criminal but in general simply reacting to all the influences from the surrounding environment, just like a pieces of paper in the wind. Involved degree positions: (the major ones only) 22º Aquarius Often restless and rather moody, but also pretty ambitious, as a result, often changing plans and activities 23º Aquarius Easily saddened, if unhappy in a situation or relation people tend to immediately break free, in search for happiness, success or new opportunities elsewhere. 24º Aquarius Always something new going on, always in search of something, but still capable to make it the own way, also knowing how to push issues and plans ahead. Predictions for the second half of 2008 Saturn positive to Jupiter - 6. August to 26. Dec. Very reliable, practical and just, therefore good in organizing and business, slowly but steady heading for success. Good image in public too, preferring deeper, long lasting relations, or such that are financially of benefit. Uranus negative to Saturn - 29. Sept. to 16. March 2009 Often wasting energy because of tense feelings on the Inside, stopped somehow, unable to concentrate, because it gets difficult to bring modern ideas and traditional values under the same hat. Risk of accidents with technical apparatus are higher then usual. Painfully worrying situations can occur in partnerships as well as in financial or all other main situations. Involved degree positions: (the major ones only) 19º Pisces Very unstable mood, because guided by intuitions, feelings and very sensitive about everything that is going on. 20º Pisces Always somehow aggressive, even when it is not really clear why or what for. Living or working together might be more than difficult during this time frame because people simply lose it rather quickly, also in violent rages. 21º Pisces Showing feelings very openly to others, becoming very tempting with this attitude. 1 more return of Jupiter positive to Uranus - 14. Oct. to 8. Dec. Living an outgoing social live, but shying away from steady relations, desire to be on the move, travel around and learn new things. Fortunate Intuition that makes it rather easy to find new ways to make money, or to gain something with speculations or find exiting love affairs. Could become leaders under the protection of someone behind the scene perhaps, and would create a lot of new social or technical revolutions.

Summarized:Typically Rat, action to get ahead, if not here then there or where ever it works. Occasionally outbursts of mindless aggression for very little reason at all, but in general a great year to look ahead to, conservative and modern at the same time.

2007 astrological predictions

Sorry for my long absence on this future cast by astrological means, was a bit to much travelling and preoccupied with other priorities.I also learned that the way i describe future events needs to be reinvented in order to accommodate also non-astrologers.The change is such that i rather focus on the entire year ahead and simplify things as good as i can without leaving to much out.

2007 general active aspects astro chart:

The main Time Frames 2007: Reasonable mixed time until June 16. Lousy times June 18 to Oct. 2. Reasonable mixed time Oct. 2. to Nov. 2. Harsh limited positive time Nov. 2. to Nov. 11. and Nov. 15. to Jan. 6. 2008 with a bit of a shaky beginning but eventually strong emerging high ideals positivity.

The above positive Pluto / Jupiter aspect marks the most significant turn-around time in years.Pluto will from then on start it’s transit years through the astrological sign of Capricorn - while also Jupiter starts it’s much shorter transit through the same astrological sign and also the 12 year cycle comes to an end hence a new cycle will start (Chinese astrological year of the Earth-Rat will begin on Fe. 7. 2008). - This will be the end of dreamers lane and ideologies of everlasting growth and expansions as an era of realism and controlling will emerge during this turn of the years!

The events during 2007 in more detail: :: Uranus in conjunction with the pos. Moon node until May 3. - good time to understand the flow of time and to fearlessly adjust and renew. Also a rather helpful attitude towards others. :: Saturn in opposition to Neptune until July 31. - Distrustful times! Everyone feels somewhat helplessly exposed to whatever is happening to them or around the planet. - This aspect comes in different shades within itself. Until April 10. rather unstable, mostly to passive, occasionally to aggressive acting period. Until the end of March combined with a rather odd philosophical mindset, basically unpractical overall. For all of April and May much better balanced use of energies, generally more coordinated activities. From April 10 to July 11. a rather-irrational mix of restless ambitions and coordinated moves. July 11. to July 31., the final portion of this negative aspect will again bring imbalanced activities between to passive and to aggressive, somewhere between very discrete and totally dreaming (during the mid July time frame) but finally towards the end of July finally getting into the groove of perfection in reality for a short while. :: Jupiter square Moon node :: Jupiter square Uranus :: Jupiter trine Saturn :: Jupiter hexagon Neptune Jupiter plays currently the main role in terms of quality of time. Especially the easing 2 positive aspects to the otherwise each other opposing planets Saturn and Neptune keep things on a less troublesome level. Until March 23. Jupiter is mainly in a worry-free zone, optimistic and outgoing, but mainly only focused on selfish interests. However, until April 16. combined with a terrible sense of timing and miscalculations issues at hand that isolates people from one another. This trouble will restart itself once more on April 29. and the misjudging and bad timing period will go on until Sept. 11.. Adding to this “everyone.in-their-own-illusions” time the Jupiter / Uranus square will go on until June 16. and re-enact itself once more from Sept. 10. to Nov. 2. - It’s an impulsive time during which “halfwit” work is conducted, incomplete thinking is present, and therefore more miscalculations, pretentious promises and losses through unwise investments will happen. Fortunately there is also some positivity during most of this time. Jupiter to Saturn until June 10. will at least still keep up a certain reliability and steadfastness. Maybe a bit slow in progress, but at least a useful portion of added practical sense here. Until May 19. Jupiter positive to the Neptune (and the same once again from Oct. 2. to Nov. 11.) will bring a time frame of maximum tolerance and caring for others well-being combined with a lot of fantasy. A Rather philosophical time for that great spiritual high perhaps.

Overall: It’s dream time! The Pig years (Chinese Astrology / Calendar) aren’t the hard reality type of years. Add emotions rather then cool collected intellect to it and you know that the danger of “unsubstantiated believe in miracles” and hence unwise activities will frequently occur, with only sprinkles of well thought trough decision making windows opening up in between the haze of irrationalities.

Future Trend Analysis September 2006

Global Trends Astro Chart, Analysis and Summary for September 2006

Please click on the astrology chart thumb above for the large size image astrological chart.

As already pointed out within the Future Trend Analysis August 2006 the negative aspect between Saturn and Neptune continuos also through the entire month of September, so does the negative aspect between Jupiter and Saturn - plus fortunately also the positive aspect between Jupiter and Uranus. New into play however come 3 aspects, positive is a stabilizing Saturn to Pluto aspect, whilst the square from Jupiter to Neptune will bring more illusions and the square from Pluto to the Moon node will not make for any great joy or advances in contacts at all.

Septembers world time chart shows 6 significant long term aspects. 1: Neptune - Saturn Opposition (Critical, envious, secret acting against others, makes many people feel hopelessly vulnerable to what others or nature decides to do to them, can lead to financial problems too, and a tendency to become rather distrustful towards others or fortune in general) - total duration until 9. October. 2: Uranus - Jupiter Trine (outgoing times for socializing, but not to get to intimate with specifics. Time to get around, travel, learn something new, maybe even to speculate a bit) - total duration until 23. September. 3: Saturn - Jupiter Square (Negating the above positive aspect completely, misfortune through false calculations or speculations or bad timing. Very average overall quality of time that has a rather boring touch to it, yet there always seems to be something that keeps things tense, disturbing events will happen) - total duration until 29. November. 4: Jupiter - Neptune Square (Time of illusions and low sense for responsibilities, searching for enlightenment but creating rather just chaos in turn, maybe friendly but without healthy instincts on whom they turn to, may pretend great plans, but basically just filling up the belly, or indulge in other excessive behavior) - total duration until 19. October. 5: Saturn - Pluto Trine (Brave and though ahead, with good understanding for structures and numbers, relentless concentration and efforts, capable of managing and handling whole organizations, on a mission to create new structures where necessary, if outcome will be that profitable in the end may be another question) - total duration: starting 10. September until 14 February 2007 so far. 6: Pluto - Moon node Square (To strong desire to be special, therefore difficulties with others, acting against common Interest could lead into a tragedy) - total duration until 30. November

The degree positions involved for these 6 planets building active aspects during all of September are: Pluto: 24° Sagittarius (wish to leave the past behind, may that be friends, childhood memories or some past love affair. Tendency to become workaholics, or alcoholics, to forget). Neptune: 18° Aquarius until middle of month, (dogmatic attitude, maybe able to stand up for a certain Ideals, but they do not understand well enough the freedom of thought that is given to everyone) then 17° Aquarius (clairvoyant understanding for others actions and motives, can see behind the outer appearance of things and give therefore also some good advice, but might be somewhat envy). Uranus: 13° Pisces until 11. of month, (working hard, preferably behind the scene, don’t mind to do all the jobs that seem to be unpopular amongst others) then 12° Pisces (strong feelings, esprit and energy, like to get carried away into other peoples emotions, into deep experiences, very flexible mindset). Saturn: 18º Leo until 5. of month, (good when it comes to using physical energy wisely, sporty, brave, would make good coaches) then 19º Leo until 13. of month, (more philosophical than practical, but keep thoughts mostly inside themselves) then 20º Leo until 21. of month, (friendly attitude, but concerned about such things as the meaning of live etc. then 21º Leo (love for the nature, that very strong, preferring to just do what is necessary to have what’s needed, not worried about the future). Jupiter: 14º Scorpio until 8. of month, (not to much into great activities, like to enjoy themselves and the brighter side of live, generous but a bit proud and superficial) then 15º Scorpio until 14. of month, (merciful, but aware that it is necessary to solve own problems first, so they don’t help unless asked for, spontaneous) then 16º Scorpio until 20. of month, (strange, unexpected desires or passionate emotions can erupt violently and usually unpredictably) then 17º Scorpio until 25. of month, (lazy, but very sensual in a secret, hidden fashion, only open to best friends, prefer to explore other peoples secrets) then 18º Scorpio (gentle, deep Insight into situations, or peoples behavior, always knowing what’s right or what’s wrong). Moon node: 26º Pisces until 13. of month, (won’t let anger rule the world, there is a new day after every night, enjoying live without being ashamed of this carefree attitude) then 25º Pisces (lots of (horny) fantasies, but if these don’t materialize terrible aggressions can flare up.

There are a good number of additional astrology aspects happening during this as well as any other month, but since these usually just last for a few days at the time they are of much less significant impact then the long lasting astrology aspects, short term astrology aspects can only intensify the long term trends to some extend and focusing on those as well would just make the entire report to long and confusing overall.
