Monthly Global Predictions for January 2016

Date Posted: December 31, 2015

About Pluto-Uranus square…….

In next five months or so, Uranus and Pluto will be making their fifth and the last square until the next one that will occur about 75-80 years from now.  The Pluto-Uranus square is about the transformation (irreversible change), and since the astrological characteristics of Uranus are very closely linked with that of the United States, this square will certainly leave its mark that will be reflected in the drastic changes (transformation) in political, social and technological fields for the United States of America. 

Global Predictions……

The important challenging planetary configurations for January include Pluto- Rahu/Ketu (Jan 4-10) ninefold squares, Saturn-Rahu (Jan 28-Feb 1) ninefold conjunctions.

The ninefold squares of Pluto with the lunar nodes (January 4-10) may become responsible for a new wave of renewed violence in Iraq, Syria, Israel and Palestinians, as well as outbreak of terrorism around the world during these days are likely.

The manifestation of the Saturn-Rahu (Jan 28-Feb 1) ninefold conjunction may be reflected in difficult period for Russia, China and to some extent Europe from the political turmoil standpoint.  Also, for the Republic Party in the United States (and for republicans as well), it may prove to be prudent to stay on guard during this period.

The important auspicious planetary configurations for January include Pluto-Saturn (Jan 4-13) and Pluto-Jupiter (Jan 24-30) ninefold sextiles.

The Pluto-Saturn (Jan 4-13) ninefold sextile may become responsible for impressive growth in European and Russian economy. This period is also good for progress in technical fields (new innovations and discoveries) and religious reconciliation for Europe and the United States.

The manifestation of the Pluto-Jupiter (Jan 24-30) ninefold sextile may be reflected in the fundamental changes  the way religious, academic and social fields carry out their daily routines (activities). Initial reaction to the change might appear to be a bit confusing and perhaps chaotic, but the majority of us are going to embrace this new wave of change and are very likely to enjoy it.

The countries that are more likely to be affected during this month are:  Europe, Middle East (Syria, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan and Palestine-Israel regions), Russia, China and the USA.

About President Obama….

President Obama’s operating planets (the planets that presently influence him most) continue to be Mercury, Sun and until January 20, 2016, Uranus and Rahu .  After January 20, 2016 Mercury, Sun and Pluto.

During January, the Mercury with its direct motion stays in sidereal Capricorn (in the sixth house of his progressive chart) till January 8, then on January 15, it turns retrograde and enters sidereal Sagittarius  (the fifth house of his progressive chart). It becomes direct on January 26 and remains in Sagittarius till the end of the month.

The favorable sixth house Mercury means, having success in dealing with the both domestic and international issues till January 15.  During the unfavorable fifth house Mercury period, he will be brooding over the matters of important from national security standpoint, and he will continue to have difficulty in reaching a decision during the second half of the month.

The other planet, Sun is presently transiting through the fifth house of his progressive chart till Jan 15. And then for the remaining part of the month, through the sixth house of his progressive chart.  As a result, until Jan 15, he will continue to have difficulty in dealing with his adversaries.  After January 15, due to Sun’s transit through the sixth house of his progressive chart, he is likely to enjoy a positive period of overcoming his adversaries and for pushing forward his political agenda.

Until January 20, Uranus being in the 8th house of his progressive chart and in the 6th house of his ninefold progressive chart despite his apparent success in being victorious over his republican adversaries, he will have difficulty in dealing with his own agenda and making forward progress in carrying out with success.  He may have to settle for much less than he would like.  However, Rahu (being in the second house of his progressive chart and in the 6th house of his ninefold progressive chart),  He might have some success in pursuing people to carryout his agenda.

After January 20, Pluto becomes the operating planet for him, and being placed in favorable 5th and the 3rd house of progressive and the ninefold progressive chart respectively Pluto may bring him a positive and refreshing change enabling him to govern the country with a higher degree of confidence.
