Shuffling the Political and Economic Deck #5

The Downward Pointing Yod

Jupiter is in Gemini in the 10th, sextile Mars and Uranus in Aries in the 8th.

Saturn is in Scorpio in the 4th, quincunx Jupiter and Mars/Uranus.

It forms the apex of the downward pointing Yod.

The downward pointing Yod is about the limitations of change.

The Jupiter-Mars/Uranus sextile would facilitate the development of expensive safety-net programs, for example.

Saturn, operating in the 4th house, at the grassroots, would demand fairness, discipline, careful planning and attention to costs.

The Upward Pointing Yod

Saturn in Scorpio in the 4th sextiles Pluto in Capricorn in the 5th. Both are quincunx Jupiter in Gemini in the 10th.

The upward pointing Yod is about managing economic change.

Saturn and Pluto, operating through the grassroots, demand order, discipline and careful planning. They also suggest the possibility of hardship and extraordinary exertion.

These demands of Saturn and Pluto are frustrated by the realities of wealth creation (Jupiter in Gemini in the 10th), which bring virtually uncontrollable and unavoidable change.

From Tug of War to Dance

March’s aspects will destroy efforts to deal with issues in the same old confrontational manner.

People will try to deploy the same old simplistic bumper sticker arguments in support of divisive, polarizing positions.  

But the double Yod will head off any such efforts by making the complexities and subtleties of an issue perhaps painfully obvious.

The Promise of the Planets

Saturn, the North Node and the Part of Fortune are all in Scorpio in the 4th not far from the Imum Coeli.

The North Node is the point in a chart where the spiritual and material resources of the individual converge most harmoniously to bring about the best possible outcome.

The Part of Fortune is the point at which everything that defines individual identity combine most harmoniously to produce the best result.

In March, this powerful confluence of powerfully supportive influences will vigorously support our efforts to bring order to our hearts, our minds, our lives, and the world around us.
