Libra New Moon - September 29, 2008
by Kaye Shinker
New Moon forecasts show
general trends for the month, here is the overview of the month ahead
The
New Moon is September 29, 2008 4:13 am EDT at 6 degrees 33 minutes.
Mercury will be retrograde until October 15. That means keep your
cash dry and research carefully any of your investment ideas.
Jupiter
is applying to a trine with Saturn. Everyone is looking for an easy
way out of each financial crisis whether it is personal of global.
Jupiter wants to liquidate all assets. Saturn wants to make a profit
from the sale. Until these two make the square in 2009, they will
have to agree to disagree.
In
the meantime, Saturn is making its first of five oppositions to Uranus.
Opposition means conclusion, and the conclusion of the Saturn/Uranus
myth is castration. Read

The
whole story of both Saturn and Uranus will give you some clues as
to how the next two years will play as this opposition continues to
move back and forth. One interpretation would be Saturn is trying
to force Uranus to stop making giants. Giants are clumsy and unwieldy
and slow to respond. They are too big for their britches.
Uranus
is given credit for the computer industry. Saturn is often defined
as restrictions.
Saturn appears in the first house
This means that the public is cranky, miserly, and very thrifty during
the month ahead. The public will create efficient ways to accomplish
every task. Instinctively people spend very little during Mercury
Retrograde. Instead of buying new things they tend to repair the toys
that are broken. Simply the tendency is to stop shopping and put off
decisions.
Also they expect the accountants and legislators to fix the financial
crisis. Unfortunately, Mercury retrograde is a universal problem and
any legislation passed will be full of loop holes. In addition Saturn
opposed Uranus in the 7th suggests that the solution will have plenty
of unintended consequences.
The New Moon is in the Second
The stress is on personal income and keeping as much as possible in
your personal savings accounts Personal income will increase because
folks will find new and additional sources for earning cash. The New
Moon encourages folks to look around for new ideas and in Libra to
maintain a balance of old ideas and new. Note any new inventions and
how they would be useful in your particular environment.
On the macro level it appears that profits from energy are financing
the changes we are seeing in the markets. The profiteers may have
pinched the sleeping giant.
Retrograde Mercury is also in the Second
Confusion tends to keep the shopper at home. This won't stop forks
from researching price and quality and convenience of things they
think they need and the internet will have a huge influence on sales.
By the way this can be difficult for sales tax revenues. Be careful
with your change jars, they have a tendency to break during Mercury
rx and/or get over filled.
Venus and Mars in the Third
On a personal level this is a great month to have fun in your neighborhood.
Practice your entrepreneurial spirit and get acquainted with your
neighbors and be sure to find lots of ways to enjoy Halloween. This
is a great month for garage sales or recycling any unused items. You
will have the energy to do the work and the understanding of the value
of your surplus items.
Pluto is on the End of the Matter Line
Pluto is in the fourth house close to the fifth house cusp and this
means "The End" If we give credit to Pluto for the sub-prime
housing mess and the fourth house represents homes then this could
very well be the indication that the mess is over. Very optimistic?
It is far too complicated for a quick solution? Right, but it
could happen, or some new financial crisis could take its place.
Jupiter is in the Fifth
The planet of expansion is giving the risk takers new territory to
explore. Neither short or long traders have left the market. They
are looking at those stocks not on the restricted list and assessing
the possibilities. The result will be an opportunity for cash rich
companies to take themselves private.
Creative new works of art, theater and music are everywhere and the
opportunity for investments in this market category are phenomenal.
Be sure visit your local arts and crafts fairs. Talented folks start
there.
Neptune
in the Sixth
Employment figures are probably wrong. Health reports are probably
wrong. Uniformed workers are on vacation. That's it. If you get a
new job this month expect the job description to change immediately
after your first pay check.
Uranus
in the Seventh
The seventh is the house of open enemies or folks that plainly say
they hate you, Uranus turns things inside out upside down and backwards.
Expect that sovereign funds and pension funds will have to hire lawyers
and accountant to disentangle themselves from the current financial
crisis.
