Does that mean you could envisage using outer planets to make specific predictions based on their move into residency as opposed to First contact?? Its sort of relevant for Uranus and Jupiter in the near future too.

IN fact on January 4th 2011 when those two bodies meet Venus will be square to Neptune and the lunation is aspected by Saturn. Looks like the beginning of January the Euro may take a total pasting!!

Fascinating! The Euro started near the Jupiter/Saturn conjunction in Venus ruled Taurus (on 1/1/1999 as an accounting currency and on 1/1/2002 as coins and banknotes).

The first signs of collapse started to appear near the Jupiter-Saturn opposition.

It appears that many of its members are not very happy with it (I think that it's the Euro that has put too much pressure on the economies of the South, (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Spain, Greece) and Germany never really wanted it and is now trying to bring it down.

I think that the period March-April 2011, when the Jupiter-Saturn opposition is completed, will be particularly critical.

I was also thinking on the same lines than you alchemist. Forgetting for a moment of neptune and co it is interesting to see the effects of the great conj. on mundane phenomena.

In those 10 years we saw a strong correlation between the GC and the movement of stock markets (anyone can see the effect of the partile trine on 2008-2009). It also seem to have had an important effect on American policy and the whole Bush Era.

Well, I don?t know if Germany wants to bring it down (officially G. is one of the big defenders of the euro, but the germans call it the "teuro"). What is impressive is when you find economist of different schools of thought agreeing that the euro (in hindsight) was a terrible idea. One should never mess with the forex market.

Jupiter & Venus both stationary on November 18. 2010
Both benefics are stationary in their own sign with Venus in Libra and Jupiter in Pisces.

So it could be something exciting but the constelletion still fills me with awe. Flip or flop? Should I be holding my breath? Jupiter and Venus - so closely related by virute and powers and their companionship in the sign of Pisces. According to certain traditions Jupiter represents the supreme God and Venus is the Angel of Mankind. Could we be looking for some sort of religious happening, or could there be an event that poises the stock markets (both fortunes slow). Could these 4 1/2 hours be an opprtune moment for meditation, or could there be the announcement of some sort of Royal engagement?

Wow Andrew! You are really on a roll with this one! News was announced yesterday from the Vatican that the Pope Benedict has supported the loosening of the Roman Catholic Church attitude to the use of condoms for exceptional health reasons such as the spread of HIV. The comments were made in a new book, which the Vatican newspaper ran excerpts of in its Saturday edition.

Both Jupiter and Venus were stationary at the time. The symbolism is pretty obvious with Jupiter=religion/faith and Venus =relationships/sex with Jupiter in the spiritual sign of Pisces and Venus in the sign associated with relationship.

It looks obvious now in hindsight but prognosticating is never easy. Well done Andrew.

The Euro was introduced as Neptune entered Aquarius. Maybe the economic union will go to Pisces once Neptune leaves the sign

You know Pisces is about connections, its that whole string from one fish to the other, so neptune into pisces, remembering he's a sea god after all, could very well be about getting the EU, to actually, you know Unite!

Just a thought. Granny
