is renowned for his uncanny and accurate forecasts on world
politics and economics. Many a politician, economist and trader
has visited this website and read the monthly predictions,
concerning future global economical trends, including subsequent
stock market directions and possible overtones; his predictions are astoundingly accurate.
LOOKING AT AUGUST 2008
This is how the planets may influence the trends in the month ahead!
With two New Moons on the 1st and 31st of August, together with a Solar and Luna eclipse, this is predicted to be a difficult month and we will certainly be in for a few interesting surprises on the global scene in connection with finances, oil, stock markets, companies re-structuring, weather changes, unusual natural incidents such as tidal flows, floods, seismic activity, fires, electrical breakdowns, political disruption, corruption, upheavals and restrictions, as the world horoscope kicks into overdrive. Global drug busts will be on the increase and they are predicted to also feature in this 2008 Olympics with some interesting or astonishing results that could even embarrass the host nation. A few minor earth tremors could also be felt in China during the Olympic series.
With the 2008 Olympic Games underway on August 8, there appears to be a mixture of good and bad planetary aspects that may influence the games. The transiting planet Saturn in the zodiac sign of Virgo will be returning to its same place on China’s natal horoscope and connects with the natal Moon in the sector of communications, interaction, policy and legal issues. Therefore, we will see much confusion over television and internet reporting, with many angry journalists throwing up their flag of social injustice regarding restrictive internet facilities, global access, human right issues, and freedom of speech. Believe it or not, even my website www.miltonblack.com.au that receives around 38, 000,000 hits will be “fire walled off” in mainland China. That’s right people; no one will be able to access my site in China, unless you go to Hong Kong or Taiwan. I have been told by Chinese officials, my site is off limits as it could influence the communist minds of many, especially young students. One thing I’m thankful for, the Chinese authorities read my site, but unfortunately they “Black-ban” the access so English speaking nationals and students can not read the contents of the site. They also believe my compatibility information concerning star signs is regarded as immoral sexual dating. What next?
On August 8, 2008, transiting Mars the planet of energy, power play and authority, will leave the opposition of Uranus, (planet of disruption and sudden happenings) and make way for the transiting Moon to connect favourably with Venus, Saturn and Jupiter in China’s chart. With this combination of planets, there is no doubt the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympics should proceed with clockwork precision and no major adversity seems to be indicated. Any incidents that may happen (including protests) would be very minor, creating little fuss for authorities. However, if you watch the news columns between the 9th and 18th there will be some comment by journalists and sports reporters regarding frustration and non-cooperation by certain authorities over issues of importance. Overall, the 2008 Olympic Games should proceed extremely well, especially from the 11th onward, when certain altercations will be compromised.
If you are playing the stock market this month, then be prepared for a continuation of volatility and we will see some very interesting bears throughout this month, with the odd rally keeping us interested. With the Moon, Mercury and Venus connecting with Jupiter (speculation) August will see increased gambling, games of chance and horse racing playing a big part on the global scene, due to these present uncertain financial times. People will endeavour to increase their stakes through laying a bet and it could back-fire? For those involved with sports betting, casino stocks or bloodstock, you may scoop a bargain or two.
Pharmaceutical and Biotech, Banks, super funds, investment trusts, insurance, healthcare and services, energy, consumer services, marine, luxury boating and goods, could all take a plunge during this month, especially between the 5th and 8th, 13th, 14th and 22nd. Watch for new players in the home mortgage market from this month onward and especially in 2009 when Pluto forms a long term connection in the business sign of Capricorn until 2024.
During August 5 and 6, Mars (energy) and Uranus (planet of sudden and unexpected) will form an opposition and care should be taken with all forms of share trading or speculation during those days, also between the 14th and 20th when Mars and Pluto( political and sociological upheavals) clash creating a worrying time for investors around the globe. Be extra careful travelling during the first two weeks of this month as accidents and possible natural disasters could be widespread. Also from the 22nd to 31st Mercury (communications) and Venus (luxuries) will clash with Uranus and Pluto and we could see Telco’s, transport, money and bond markets doing a reshuffle. Hospitality services and tourism may also feel the pinch this month as we all brace for a period of economic hard times ahead.
This month will see retail traders twisting their thumbs and the writing will be on the wall that job growth will begin to slow, unemployment is predicted to raise its ugly head in the months ahead. Although times will be getting tough, the planetary aspects for August indicate the reserve bank does not appear to lower interest rates this month. It is predicted that reverse mortgages will be on the increase from this month onward for those over 60 years of age as they endeavour to cope with their short fall of superannuation and credit card debt. If you’re thinking of purchasing real estate, hang in there and wait a few months. Bigger and better bargains will be found as the market declines in value.
The Prime Minister Kevin Rudd is predicted to have a rather strenuous month as Mars transits his own sign of Virgo and connects with his natal planets throughout the next four weeks. During 2009 -2010 you will see Mr. Rudd come under enormous opposition with his planned climate change and carbon policies verses economic issues. His horoscope indicates he and his present government will have great difficulty keeping the country on an even economic balance from now until election time in 2010. The transiting planets Uranus and Pluto will bombard him with tremendous opposition, creating difficulty and frustration. Constituents will be concerned with their future security brought about by the present Federal Governments policies.
Australian politics is about to turn the corner and we can expect sudden and unexpected surprises and major changes ahead for all political parties as Australia commences an important 84 year astrological cycle, when transiting Uranus crosses the natal planets of Mercury and Jupiter for the first time since 1919 -1920. Interesting to note, the Australian Country Party was formed on January 22and 23, 1920. We are predicted to see in the near distant future the formulation of a new one political party compared with the present coalition as we have today. Be prepared for the sudden and unexpected over the next two years, with a new coalition leader soon to take the helm, Mr Rudd and his Labor party’s popularity and policies will start to decline and his popularity will be questionable.
