The EU - a dysfunctional family?

The latest Scorpio zine is up just in time - as I write, the Sun is heading quickly into Sagittarius! So the next month will highlight strategy and belief systems in companies as well as everywhere else. Mercury is about to go backwards on November 25th until December the 15th so beware of communication snafus again during thsi period.


This month I have suggested a couple of mid-term scenarios for the EU. After all, futurists are always giving predictions without the aid of astrology - more on that too. So I have taken a leaf out of their book.

We do have choice as to what happens but I  fear the worst when I  look at the EU history.
Links to a few interviews too this month. One from me in the wonderful Scheepvaart Museum. Also Dennis Elwell and last but not least Adjiedj Bakas.

Evolution and Emergence

I always like to read what Bruce Lipton, the author of 'Spontaneous Evolution' is up to. This month his newsletter is in the form of a video which I really liked. It's about 11 minutes long and I think worth taking the time to watch, as it providers a positive message in these troubled times. And an explanation of what astrologers would associate with the current aspects between two planets - Pluto in Capricorn and Uranus in Aries. As I have written of many times, these two planets are in the process of squaring up next year and on 6 other occasions until 2015. We are just at the beginning of a huge transformation.

Bruce is using the Occupy movement as an example. In astrology Uranus would represent the people who are rebelling. They want change - Uranus - they are the igniters - Aries. They don't know what the outcome will be, but they are ready to fight for change. Pluto in Capricorn represents corporate power in this case, and in general anyone who has power and authority. The Police in New York as they move the protestors on today. The people in charge at St Paul's cathedral in London, who have chnaged their tune through the actions of the protestors. Things are changing. Corrupt power will be taken down. As Bruce says - who knows what is emerging? But Uranus in Aries makes sure that change starts.

A story in the newspaper this morning stood out for me too. It spoke of a group of Nuns buying shares in corporations so they can put their suggestions for positive changes on the agendas of large corporations. And the directors are taking notice and meeting them! Change can be done that way too, and from quarters where you might least expect it...
