Saturn and Uranus Go Planetary Dancing

The cyclical dance of these two planets does indeed seem to have rather an effect on the economic affairs of our society. Whenever there have been recessions, bursting bubbles and other types of mayhem on the stock markets this planetary pair are not too far away. I admit to a cursory look into the stock market crashes but since the depression in the 30’s, the oil shocks of the 70’s, Black Monday of 1987 on into the present financial turmoil. There they are hanging about like a couple characters waiting to gate crash the money train. I get the impression the universe is trying to send us a message concerning where we find security (Saturn) and a need to find other, maybe revolutionary ways of achieving it (Uranus). So far we seem to be failing pretty miserably. Perhaps the arrival of Pluto into the mix will lead to some collective responsibility and an understanding of how to go about achieving sustainable economic growth both personally and collectively. One thing’s for sure nobody has a clue as to what the financial markets are going to look like when the present malarkey ends never mind forecasting when it might end.

As to whether this resembles the depression of the 30’s or some other past recession does it actually matter. We have to deal with the here and now. It does not much matter if you are in the soup kitchen line wearing Armani or Primark, it’s the same line.

I have decided to have my own Saturn/ Uranus opposition dance at home. On one side, in a drawer, is my credit card, which is going to stay in that drawer come hell or high water (Saturnian responsibility). On the other side is my Uranian self promising to have a good look at my Venus which is the planet responsible for much of the impulse buying I indulge in. My Venus sure does like buying clothes and that is going to have to stop. I am going to have to come up with ways of indulging my fashion sense without visiting my favourite stores as often.......... more to come

Oh yes we live in interesting times.
