Astrologers not taking into account real world events?

[Petalp]

I often look at many astrologers' columns in magazines and newspapers and visit noted astrologers' websites. What shocks me is that nearly all of them seem to be very positive with regards to current world events in particular property, finance and the job market. They don't mention the credit crunch - rising inflation, negative equity, high food costs, job losses etc.

I keep on seeing "June is a great time to buy or invest in new property" (hardly anyone is buying at the moment) "September sees you spend spend" (most people are watching the old purse) "Ask your boss for a promotion in November" (begging your boss not to sack you is more likely).

Are these astrologers just trying to ensure people keep reading what they have to say? Do you reckon their editors are pushing them into smothering us with good news when for many life has never been so bleak?

Hi Petalp, don't read the astrology columns in a newspaper or magazine as they are crap. Go and see an astrologer, if you are experiencing dark times, they will be able to walk you through it to the otherside. The tone of your post sounds to me like you have the " black dog " hanging around at the moment, as no matter what happens in the world there are always good things that happen, the world is not all bad.

Hi,

A few reflections on adversity and how to cope with it.

It will be interesting to see if the movement of Jupiter out of Capricorn (fall) into Aquarius will improve matters. Jupiter will still be in a domicile of Saturn but will be in its own triplicity ( according to Dorothean triplicity rulers). Further ahead the Ingress of Saturn into Libra (exaltation) and Jupiter into Pisces (domicile ruler) will presumably indicate a significant improvement in the economic climate.

There is no doubt that the astrologicallly astute can take advantage of the inevitable up and down turn of economic markets.

This reminds me of a quote:

Millionaires don't have astrologers, billionaires do.

PetalP, here is something that maybe of interest to you. It is a little bit "whack" but good entertainment in the least. Combines astrology, bible code, numerology and other lovely things.....
