Uranus enters sidereal Aries (June 24)……..
One of the important planetary events of June 2016 is the transit of the modern planet Uranus from sidereal Pisces to Aries. Uranus will enter sidereal Aries on June 24, and it will stay there till September 4 before it returns to Pisces due to its retrograde motion. It will station in Pisces until April 6, 2017 and then will return to Aries, and will stay in Aries for the next seven years or so.
Although it’s going to be in Aries for a short while (June 24 – Sept 4) before it returns to Aries next year, Uranus being the planet of change will certainly affect the matters related to Aries in a big way. Aries being the fire and cardinal sign, which is very suitable for independent, ambitious, energetic, impulsive and crazy Uranus, the changes in world political landscape is going to be tremendously influenced by Uranus’s transit in Aries. The people who are most affected by this transit are military personnel, business leaders and political leaders. In scientific and technological areas expect a lot of drastic changes and emerging new ideas will find their way into innovations and discoveries. The scientific and technological growth rate will rise at a very rapid pace. A new wave of world political and corporation leaders with their new perspectives on world order will certainly transform our world in next 6-7 years to a new level to which we must adjust to. Since Uranus is the characteristics of Uranus closely tied with that of the United States as a country, I wouldn’t be surprised if the current presumed the democratic and the republican presidential nominees go through a painful process of conducting their campaign and may be faced with surprises at their party’s national convention since both of these conventions are going to take place during June 24 – September 4.
On individual level for those who have Aries ninefold ascendant should get ready for a brand new cycle of change, especially a very pronounced cycle if Uranus is a dominant planet in their birth charts. The changes that might occur would be sudden and would deal with pretty much all aspects of life including marriage, profession, surroundings, common perceptions and beliefs, and the way of living.
About transit of Mars in Scorpio……
The planet Mars entered the sidereal zodiac sign Scorpio on February 20. While in Scorpio, it turned retrograde on April 18. With its retrograde motion it goes back in Libra on June 18. It becomes direct in Libra on June 30 and then with it’s direct motion re-enters Scorpio on July 11. It remains in Scorpio until September 18. Thus, except for June 18- July 11, Mars occupies Scorpio from February 20 through September 18. Saturn, being in Scorpio all through 2016, conjuncts Mars with one degree orb during August 20-28.
Scorpio being a water and fixed sign ruled by Mars, it becomes extremely challenging for Scorpio resident Saturn when Mars is in Scorpio. Because by nature, Mars and Saturn do not complement each other, when Mars dominates (being the ruler of Scorpio) Saturn is naturally going to feel totally out of place in Scorpio. Furthermore, because Scorpio is a water (emotional) sign, Saturn in Scorpio feels suffocated, withdrawn and paralyzed. Due to the presence of Mars, Saturn is very likely to go off track and potentially become self-destructive.
As a result of this challenging combination of Saturn and Mars in Scorpio, February 20 through September 18 will be filled with undesirable activities that will affect not only the Middle-East but the entire world. Some of the manifestations of this conjunction are: terrorism, ongoing barbaric activities, senseless killings, persecutions, pain and suffering, violence, wars and intolerable and tragic situations for those who cannot defend themselves. In the United States, the Republican Party will go through a dramatic and painful experience since Saturn represents conservative principles. Financial markets, especially oil and energy-related markets will exhibit tremendous volatility. Natural calamities, including extreme weather conditions, abnormal weather patterns, earthquakes of significant magnitude, wildfires, hurricanes, snow storms etc., are likely to occur more frequently. Those who are born with the Scorpio as ascendant or with Moon in Scorpio are likely to experience difficult period filled with challenges; but the very same experience will likely to provide them with the opportunity to transform their lives in a positive way (self-discovery).
Global Predictions……
The important challenging planetary configurations for June include Uranus-Mars (June 14-26) quincunx, Pluto-Uranus (June 4-15) ninefold quincunx, Neptune-Saturn (June 4-July 4) square and Rahu-Jupiter (June 18-28) conjunction.
The Uranus-Mars (June 14-26) quincunx may become responsible for natural and man-made calamities, especially in the United States of America. In addition, the Democratic party is likely to go through a very painful period during these twelve days.
The Pluto-Uranus (June 4-15) ninefold quincunx may mean hard times for USA to deal with international crisis. This quincunx could manifest in the form of having the USA involved in international conflict.
The manifestation of the Neptune-Saturn (June 4-July 4) square may be reflected in a social or political turmoil in the USA, Russia or China, and the rising friction among these countries.
While Rahu-Jupiter conjunction (June 18-28) is likely to temporarily favor orthodox and ultra conservative religious authorities, it also is going to sow seed of self destruction for those authorities (Guru Chandal Yog). Some sort of religious upheaval or conflict is likely to surface during this period. Besides its influence on religion, Rahu-Jupiter conjunction may become responsible in slowing down social progress, humanitarian efforts, and charity work. The morality, in general, is likely to take a backseat.
The important auspicious planetary configurations for June include Pluto-Rahu (May 18 – July 20) and Pluto-Jupiter (June 18 – July 1) trines.
The Pluto-Rahu (May 18 – July 20) trine is positive for global economy. This period is also favorable for progress in technical fields (new innovations and discoveries) and religious reconciliation.
The manifestation of Pluto-Jupiter (June 18 – July 1) trine maybe reflected in drastic changes that religious, academic and to some extent social fields are likely to experience. 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.
The countries that are more likely to be affected during this month are: USA, Russia, China, Europe and the Middle East (Syria, Iran, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan and Palestine-Israel regions).
About President Obama….
President Obama’s operating planets (the planets that presently influence him most) continue to be Mercury, Sun and Pluto till July 1.
During June, Mercury stays in sidereal Aries (in the ninth house of his progressive chart) till June 8, then in Taurus (in the tenth house of his progressive chart) till June 27, and then finally in Gemini (the eleventh house of his progressive chart) till the end of the month.
Until June 8, the unfavorable ninth house Mercury means, he will continue to have to deal with delays, obstacles and direct confrontation not only with his adversaries but with some of his own cabinet members. However, after June 8, both the tenth and the eleventh house will be favorable for him for in not only successfully governing the country but in achieving some of the political as well as personal goals with outstanding results.
Sun is presently transiting through the favorable tenth house of his progressive chart till June 14. And then for the remaining part of the month, through the favorable eleventh house of his progressive chart. As a result, the entire June from Sun’s transit standpoint, looks very good. He will likely to succeed in dealing with the both the domestic and international issues. His popularity will be on rise both domestically and internationally. He will be recognized for his efforts and achievements by most people. This is one of the outstanding months of his presidency.
Pluto being placed in favorable 5th house of progressive chart, Pluto continues to provide him with a positive and refreshing change enabling him to govern the country with a higher degree of confidence.
Thus, overall, June look to be a wonderful month for him.
