As predicted: Jupiter/Uranus in the News


Already we're seeing some manifestations of the Jupiter/Uranus alignment:

In the last post I mentioned the possibility of strikes and shakeups within the religious or educational and travel fields - British Airways (Jupiter travel) and the Transport & General Workers Union are to meet in a bid to avert next week's two-day strike (Uranus revolt) by cabin crew.

And right on time, English schools must now teach "britishness" The Education Secretary, Alan Johnson says , urging pupils in England to learn about British values.

Churches unite over the adoption row as The Church of England backs the Catholic Church in its bid to be exempt from laws on adoption by gay couples. Uranus (homosexuality and other 'minorities' and rebellion of course). We're sure to see more arguments (since this is a square aspect of tension) between the Church/Education (Jupiter) and those deemed as outcasts or deviant in society (Uranus).

And, just as I mentioned the theme of Innovations, the BBC is running this website to mark the 150th anniversary of The Patent Office, asking people to nominate the best and worst inventions.


In other travel news, the LA Times Reports that Americans are driving less for the first time since 1980 due to higher oil prices - could this be the lead into new technologies (Uranus) that reduce our over-consumption (Jupiter) on natural resources?

Back to education news:
Government and opposition supporters clashed at a Beirut university campus (Jupiter) Thursday (Thursday is actually Jupiter's Day - from the French "jeudi", each day of the week has classically been attributed to the planets that were first discovered - Sunday the Sun Day, Monday the Moon Day and so on) - battering each other with sticks, stones and even furniture in new violence spilling over from Lebanon's political crisis (Uranus).


Just a few snapshots of the world picture - to show how these planetary patterns find their manifestation on the planet. Expect more shocks (Uranus) in the fields of education, religion, belief, legal matters (Jupiter) and some amazing new gadgets and gizmos and new procedures that will astound, amaze and possibly outrage you.

Jupiter as the ruler of Sagittarius and Uranus as the ruler of Aquarius brings these two sign-energies together (fire and air) to whip up a storm of frenzied energy and activity intent o:

improving our social conditions by first poking the things
that repress, trap, confine and limit
our focus, horizon, scope and vision.
