The below article has been sent by Harald Seeberger, Switzerland, in comment to the new year. It is a pleasure to all of us that business astrology and financial astrology is growing to be considered a serious player in business questions and financial questions.
Saturn and Pluto drives DAX, (The German stock index) to the South.
Downwards in February and May, bottoms in November and a slight increase at the year end: In 2002, the stock market astrologers hit the mark. What is the outlook for 2003?
Bad Camberg - Astrologers wont join the bank and insurance experts fat prognosis of a German stock index (DAX) around 5100, Dow Jones close to 11000 and NEMAX 50 about 1500. Their indicators pointed strongly downwards based on an astrological point of view from 2002 (see "Die WELT am SONNTAG 1/02), and they were right. It isn't the first time that financial astrology has precisely predicted decisive market turning points.
In the mean time stock investors, professional market players and banks increasingly make use of the possibilities within financial astrology. Because with astrology it is possible to make infinite predictions. Doing this, business and financial astrology not only makes use of astrology, but also incorporates the usual indicators such as chart techniques, interest development and general market development.
In making predictions for 2003 the following were also investigated: the main indicators, Dax, Dow Jones, Nasdaq, Eurostoxx, Nikkei, SMI and commodities such as gold, silver and Euro to the Dollar. The prognosis: 2003 isn't a great year! That's how the constellations pointing at financial troubles work, particularly in the first half of the year. Saturn/Pluto- and Saturn-Jupiter-connections will strain the markets and the economy. The second half of the year may be more positive, in the sense that economy, work market and possibly also the stock market start pointing upwards. Astrologically the German stock index is the one mainly responsible for the lack of enthusiasm in the first six months because of Saturn/Pluto-constellations. Generally the picture shows sideways and downwards movement, in the worst case one should count on indexes at 2700 or below, and with a bunch of luck it may rise to a max of 3900 during the second half of the year.
The Dow Jones development doesn't raise the spirits. Joining the challenging Jupiter-Saturn-connections are even stronger Pluto/Saturn-aspects in the second half of the year. Result: worst case 7700 points or below, best case you may touch the 10.000-mark. As predicted earlier, the interesting areas for the coming year are currencies and gold. The chart for silver, which presented some rises and highs in 2003, is also interesting. The Euro shows limited constellations in Spring and a further weakening in the second half of the year. It won't come to more than pari with the Dollar.
Looking at singled-out country and politicians charts also gives cause for excitement. There is turbulence in Germany through Uranus to the Sun and Saturn, potential challenging and possible involvement in wars or unrest from February until Summer. The second half of the year is because of the Pluto-Jupiter aspect dominated by large expenses. Towards the end of the year thing might get dynamic. Kanzler Gerhard Schröder has also turbulent times in store. After the kanzler election that I predicted correctly, he is in for trouble and unfriendliness directed at him personally. He gains throughout the year, however, and particularly he is lucky during the Summer.
No peace from over the pond. The USA chart has Uranus touching the Sun/Saturn in Spring and Fall. Turbulence and war-like activities. Particularly February and March look nasty through the Saturn/Neptune and Saturn/Mars. George W. Bush has a specific role to play, here we also find Uranus toughing the Sun and Moon - meaning unrest and dynamics. In May/June he encounters a successful constellation with Uranus/Jupiter, which may lead to success in spite of all the obstacles. Pluto is well placed with Jupiter, so the action may end up successful.
Result: In the second half of the year the world economy and the stock markets may profit. No reason for euphoria, though. Article published on December 29th. 20023) ISBA Board Election - non-Europeans
Candidates for the upcoming election are:
Mary Downing - USA
Bill Meridian - The Arab Emirates
Paula Falcao - Brazil
Mauricio Bernis - Brazil.
As mentioned earlier in previous newsletters we are interested in expanding the board with several members - both from outside of Europe and from outside of the USA.
That is why we are very happy to welcome two members from Brazil, a country from which we now have several members.
Paula and Mauricio will also be among the speakers in London, November 2003. Their specialties are within business astrology, particularly the area of human resources.
We are also pleased that one of the world's most respected financial astrologers, Bill Meridian, will continue his board work.
We furthermore welcome Mary Downing, who through her experience in the largest astrological organizations of the USA can add expertise to ISBA that any organization would be happy to receive.
Every ISBA member has two votes. The election takes place on March 10. and 11. , the date of ISBA's founding. It will run over two days, since our members are in many different time zones. ISBA has its sixth birthday on March 10 and we look forward to it - particularly that transit Pluto leaves many vital planets in our chart, such as the Sun, Venus and Mercury. Please mail your votes to: info@businessastrologers.com
We look forward to hearing from you and will write more about the election in the March newsletter.4) Article Vladimir Gorbatcevich
Our Russian members Vladimir Gorbatcevich has written a very interesting article on astrological methods. The article is titled: Methodology of Astrology, and can be read on our web site www.businessastrologers.com - in the members area. Thank you, Vladimir!5) ISBA book
Our ISBA book - written by 11 ISBA members, is now at last finished in the E-book version. Any interested members can read about the book on our web site in a couple of weeks. It has been a very complicated process, mostly because of transit Pluto, which has worked with publishers as well as in ISBA 's organization. But its dawning!6) Visa
We now have installed the option of paying by VISA. This has long been a wish of our members as it makes it considerably easier to pay your membership fee, for the ISBA book and for all the other services we plan to offer or members - at reduced prices, of course......
7) Growing awareness of ISBA
Last, but certainly not least, we want to let you know that the organization ISBA , slowly but surely, is being used by journalists worldwide as the organization on contacts for information about business astrology and financial astrology when writing articles. In January, we were contacted from Ireland, England and the USA.Best regards,
Karen & Hannah
