I know I have talked about financial crisis before and I think I might do a better and more extensive review on the financial crisis later.
But I am also interested to know your opinions from an astrological point of view, when would you think an "era" of people uniting financially would be possible? Like forming credit unions and such things happening.
If we look to the outer planets in astrology we see that the slow movers are changing signs soon.
Sidereally speaking Jupiter is about to move into Libra, Uranus into Aries and Saturn into Sagittarius.
When looking at sidereal astrology and seeing Jupiter in Virgo now, it should actually be the detriment of Jupiter - but yet we do not see a financial crisis yet and neither with tropical look. Virgo might actually not be the detriment of Jupiter at all, since maybe, just maybe, Pisces is not a Jupiter sign, but rather a Neptune sign. Looking at Jupiter when we did have financial crisis starting in October 2008 when the banks house of cards collapsed, we had Jupiter in it's own sign Sagi by sidereal measures. BUT interestingly at that time if we look at tropical we had Jupiter coming to the opposite degree of it's exaltation, so to it's degree of fall in Capricorn (sign of Saturn that is the planet of austerity). Bankers actually knew things were turning down at the beginning of the year 2008 when Jupiter had just moved into Capricorn (tropically).
In later half of 1929 Jupiter was moving through Gemini tropically, it's true sign of detriment - while Saturn was on the opposite side moving through Sagi. Neptune just moved into it's sign of detriment, Virgo. From that picture the dignities of the planets actually seem to fit better into the tropical framework - I don't know why, but it seems that way.
Although with the financial crisis I do believe there are more factors than only Jupiter to look at, Pluto is also big money and power. Neptune is about deception that is needed for the upkeep of the financial system as we know it.
Some economists are warning of a new crisis coming up. If we just take a look at the tropical framework (since that fits with the two big financial crisis) on those planets we see that Saturn is indeed in Sagi now, like it was 1929, Jupiter is in Libra so it should be ok and Neptune is in it's own sign Pisces so it should be at the top of deception
IF I were to look only at this tropical framework for debility and fall of planets and predict when we will see the beginning of next crisis it will be in the end of 2019 when Jupiter enters Capricorn and the big hit being in 2020 when Jupiter hits it's degree of fall in tropical Capricorn. We do also see downturns in the economy it seems when Jupiter conjoins Saturn like in July 1981. To test the fall of Jupiter in terms of planetary dignities we would also have to ask the question "do we see economic recessions happen every time Jupiter hits it's degree of fall"? I would also be interested to know positions of Pluto, Neptune and Saturn when we see recessions.
