War: the latest shove towards World Economy Restructuring

 


The underlying layer of the global pandemic has been reinforced in February 2022 by Russia's decision by President Putin to fully invade Ukraine.
The economic consequences of Covid-19 are now strongly at risk of being significantly amplified by the restructuring of the global economy [Pluto in Capricorn] within the context and consequences of war. 
Though currently the physical activity of war is being played out within Ukraine involving Russian invaders and Ukrainian defenders the involvement of significant global networks and nation states has quickly entered the frame through not only overwhelming support for Ukraine from the international community - this support in itself is tantamount to entering the war from the Kremlin's perspective.
Retaliative payback for especially the economic damage inflicted by primarily Western democracies is a high potential scenario within the long as well as short-term outlook.

Given this context of political conflict [Venus-Mars-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn] the potentials of several patterns unfolding in March and April - with extended relevance due to the end of April Taurus eclipse - can be interpreted as having significant economic financial monetary market consequences.

The combining of Pisces factors with Uranus and an eclipse in Taurus stand out due to the dissolving weakening influence of water -so much Pisces in the energy field -as well as Pisces contagion potential within market trading environments.

In addition the Cardinal energies -all 4 are strongly evoked with Venus [Libra] Mars [Aries] both joining Pluto in Capricorn.
Not only is this the peace-war spectrum but also the structure of the global economy - which so far under Pluto has evaded the necessary restructuring......and there's not many degrees or much time before Pluto is supposed to have done its job.
2022 looks like the strongest contender for this process to begin due to the energies of March-April 2022. 
After the intensity at the beginning of March - the New Moon period - April is when Pluto's most significant activity begins with the square to the Aries Sun April 18 = slowdown begins = intensification approaching the Retrograde station at the end of April solar eclipse in Taurus. 
Pluto at end of April is closest to Earth during its cycle and extra potent until May 11.
The new context for Pluto is the Sun being in Taurus since April 20 and Uranus conjuncting the Sun on May 5.
The mid May lunar eclipse activates Taurus and Scorpio with Saturn and Neptune having strong influences.
These energies in May point to the extension of issues around money provided by the money and power eclipses of April-May.

Chemistry and alchemy both seek to  create something new. Sometimes that requires a catalyst to enact a critical transformation


Feb March April factors worth noting:

Feb Jupiter ♓️-Uranus ♉️ -money dissolving
March Pluto-Venus ssqu Neptunian New Moon - financial wipeout
March Uranus♉️ ssqu Fulll Moon
March Uranus♉️ squ Venus♒️
March Saturn♒️ conj Venus♒️ ssqu Sun
April Saturn conj Mars
April Saturn squ nodes
April Jupiter-Neptune sextile ♉️♏️ nodes
April Venus Jupiter Neptune ♓️conjunction
April ♉️New Moon partial solar eclipse ssq Venus♓️
In total a huge convergence of factors in March & April -with effects beyond then ...
weakening money/finances/markets/commodities

The 2022 convergence of so many planetary factors in Capricorn Aquarius Pisces in the period referenced here holds a lot of significance in terms of the intensification of energy within a limited sector of the 360 circle and bounded by the nodal axis.
The energy overload signified is likely to have turbulent manifestations in multiple expressions.
[ Vedic astrology has a particular concern with this "Kala Sarpa Yoga" ]

In Feb-May 2022
Pluto dominates Capricorn
Saturn dominates Aquarius
Jupiter and Neptune dominate Pisces
Uranus dominates Taurus

Venus and Mars add their influence to the outer planet positions in Capricorn Aquarius and Pisces

The Sun covers Pisces-Aries-Taurus in the most focal period March-April

This accounts for at maximum 5 zodiac signs -such as late March and 4 signs late April

Definitely a period to observe and learn from.

Outlook 2020 Astrology MARCH APRIL MAY JUNE JULY

The coronavirus Covid-19 global crisis with economic responses really began to take hold in March 2020 as reflected in the March 10 full moon when Uranus exactly conjuncted Venus at 4 Taurus. This position activated 19 mutable - which was the Sun moon and Neptune at that full moon = weakened economy.
Markets dropped and the price of oil slumped soon after.
But an ordinary full moon is not a sustained indicator like an eclipse -unless it has a degree match to a prior or upcoming eclipse position - then that full moon pattern takes on themes of the connected eclipse as well as its own signature. This was not the case in the March event.
Global markets took a hit but have had some degree of recovery [Dow Jones was 26,121 on March 5 then 18,590 on March 23 then up to 23,949 on April 14.
Jupiter Pluto conjuncting in Capricorn  -closures and failures and lockdowns - have severely impacted economies from the last 2 weeks of March providing the second punch.

In April Saturn delivers the third punch with some influence in week one then primarily in the period 17-27 April -  pressing up close to the Capricorn South lunar node but then Mercury Sun and Venus [using  both the most basic & the most subtle of angles in the 24th harmonic]
Coinciding with Saturn's activity with Venus around April 25-26 the nodes reach 0'21 Cancer -which happens to be the June 21 Solar Eclipse in Cancer.
June 21 has Saturn aggravating the lunar energy of that New Moon eclipse and Jupiter and Pluto putting the brakes on Mars in Pisces.
My reading of this is:
Around April 25-26 a turning point globally re controlling covid-19 but economic fallout continues its carnage.
May 2020 reinforces this position:
Neptune and Saturn both weakening for Venus. Even if from late April there is some global economic revival it remains weak.
June 2020:
Indications of virus control at both the June 5 and June 21 eclipses with Mars in Pisces being restrained by Saturn then the Jupiter+ Pluto team
June 5 still signifies limits on movements and travel for an extended period
June 21 shows impacts on housing/housing market & families for an extended period

July 2020 has a further cardinal sign eclipse
This is a very testing month: much global turbulence -atmospheric and socio-economic - at the beginning of July surrounding the eclipse on July 5.
Jupiter and Pluto again very tight together in Capricorn. Venus will resonate with that very quickly: many levers pulled to resuscitate economies. Another extension of the "movements curtailed" theme. Eclipse indicators set another period of unresolved economic crisis till end of 2020. 
Reinforced again:
With Saturn strongly opposing the July 20 New Moon and connecting to the late Gemini-Sagittarius lunar nodes the tough times aren't over for families homes housing market especially. [atmospheric turbulence bringing severe weather is again an added adversity in various locations] Winter in the Southern Hemisphere aggravates issues.

By July there is likely to be an overall feeling of success globally in managing the coronavirus but the socio-economic fallout has long term dramas to play out not only this year - sustained during 2021.

To clarify even further:
  • The success level is not equivalent to eradication
  • The success level will be variable across the globe with style of management being the major determinant
  • strict measures of containment will still feature in many contexts from April till end of 2020
Astrology offers clear distinction between 3 approaches taken: the Capricorn/Saturn the Aquarian/Uranian & the Piscean/Neptunian






Buckle in as best you can to try and ride out 2020. Change will come but this period is a phenomenon with a lot still to unfold in its wake beyond this year

The New Economy, Money and Things

Astrologers are anticipating something significant to unfold regarding money, assets, markets and economies -starting significantly in 2018 and spreading over the period of Uranus in Taurus
 [2018-2026]


Change, new conditions, disruption, upheaval, sudden reversals, new inventions are all within the realm of outcomes associated with the energy of Uranus. When that energy is associated with Taurus the focus shifts to survival and security - aspects of life closely associated with money, economies, assets, property and possessions in general. Taurus is also your food supply -what you eat or consume as fuel and nutrition for your body.

Taurus is very materialistic energy and related to physical sensory properties. Taurus collects, accumulates, holds onto and can be greedy.

Uranus is the complete opposite -it is energy itself, electromagnetic, electrical, stuff we mostly cannot see -unless its discharged as lightning or an electrical spark. It's digital, it's invisible waves carrying information, it's data.
In people with strong Uranian qualities [often expressed by those born as Aquarians] it is inventive, futuristic, hyper modern, unconventional, rebellious, different, avant garde

Putting these 2 expressions together offers a raft of possible manifestations which comply with those parameters:

Unusual food sources [eg insects] lab-grown meat [experimental foods] changes in food availability

Where Taurus collects Uranus prefers to be free of - so the trend towards minimalising and de-cluttering is a forewarning of the energy that Uranus will bring to Taurus type dispositions.

updates from related news posted at end

Taurus is all about value and the glorification of expensive and designer goods, real estate, cars etc.
Uranus is set to devalue a lot of these objects of worship. This process has been underway in advance due to mass forging and copyright theft allowing global markets to be flooded with fake designer wear & devices.
The dismantling of monopolies [greedy corporates] is also likely under these conditions as more competition arises through fair means or foul.

Changes in the nature of money are clearly in process - in some cases cash being increasingly seen as antiquated. Cash does not suit the banking system due to its lack of traceability. It also cannot be wiped out in a single stroke in the way that digital bank balances can be. It is clear that banks have been enabled to shift most people onto the digital economy and crypto-currencies are a clear development to extend this process. Expect much more virtual developments in the realm of what constitutes money in the decades ahead.

With ongoing concern since the last financial crisis that global threats to economic stability remain threatening many in the field regularly anticipate the straw that will break the camel's back.
In early April 2018 financial analyst Ann Pettifor gave her take on current conditions:
This small set of Pettifor's points highlight debt, banking and value all of which can be expected to undergo considerable changes in the 8 years ahead

The specifics of what will change for individuals are varied but knowing why this is happening can give some pointers as to dealing with what's ahead.

Energy shifts are continually in process and they signify major collective experiences that bring about new understandings of how to find balance and be more attuned to natural flows and cycles.

Humanity's biggest weakness stems from feeling an ownership and control of nature and natural forces. This intense degree of ignorance leads not only to wars and environmental devastation. It leads to species annihilation and the mass deaths, torture and various forms of enslavement of humanity.

Extreme survivalist agendas place all of us and our environment in peril. The only way forward is recognition of our collective needs as humans being balanced with the maintenance of a healthy productive home planet. 

All human agendas relating to dominance and control of people, other species, resources and environments are past their use-by date and the evidence of this will be repeatedly evident during this coming decade.

The evidence is not likely to come gently though. The results of widespread abusive behaviours which have collective consequences are manifesting through contaminated water sources, through stockpiled waste, through devastating weather that rips away lives and lifestyles. These warnings are accumulating but the end result is not likely to be sudden willing conversions to a change of perspective on greed and abuse. It usually takes tough tough lessons in the form of a reversal of fortune, suffering through loss. This too has already been arising frequently due to the numbers affected by violent weather but failure to understand the connection of the natural world's imbalance as a reflection of the general state of humanity means progress is slow, awareness is limited and people continue to perform the same behaviours that got us here. Until they no longer can. Until something very significant changes. Until all their assets are lost. Until the food supply is cut off.

We are living in very uncertain times requiring well thought out strategies in case of significant socio-economic changes.

Extreme outcomes are definitely within the realm of possibility for increasing numbers of people. It becomes a personal choice whether to anticipate and try to mitigate possible impacts. 
Save more. Grow more. Reduce debt. Sell. Adapt to change. Reduce risk. Say no to greed. Treat the earth with kindness.

Astrological Notes with further analysis:
Events do not occur out of the blue. Early indicators often go unnoticed and are often more covert than overt. A lot goes on in the world that is unreported and not in the news. Astrological indicators can usually be found as advance warnings.

The change-bringer Uranus has been impacting all the cardinal signs since 2011. Though positioned in Aries the full cardinal quartet [Aries Libra Cancer Capricorn] is automatically activated with the implications for changes in financial, economic, business, political and government spheres and the impact on homes/families -all due to struggling with the state of imbalance - and dealing with how we treat each other, how we relate to fellow humans.
These conditions then lead into the issues related the the fixed signs which are survivalist - Taurus through possession, Scorpio through power, Leo through attention, Aquarius through the group. All of these domains of survival are under pressure to express in new ways - with Taurus in the spotlight.

news updates of relevance to this post

May 9
New Zealand is struggling -since 2017 - with a very clear Taurean issue - the cow species. Since the discovery of the bacterial disease Micoplasma bovis

Due to the prevailing energy of Uranus in Taurus major change in NZ's reliance on cattle as an industry -both beef and dairy -  is to be expected. Large scale culling is already underway. 
Uranus is the energy of earthquakes, sudden shifts of landscape and this occurrence in the agricultural sector is seismic for New Zealand

update May 2 2018 
first quarter results

March 29
Heading towards the handover for Uranus from Aries to Taurus, the advance indicators start with:
Venus conjunct Uranus at 27 Aries on March 29 2018 - on a day when Saturn in Capricorn was square the Sun in Aries - very much indicating the need to curtail self-interest in favour of mature recognition of societal responsibility.

April 17 2018
Uranus conjunct the Sun at 27-28 Aries
Moon at 21-22 Taurus  conjuncts Venus 22 Taurus
Both opposite Jupiter 21 Scorpio and all linked to Pluto 21 Capricorn. Significant changes impacting material/financial/banking/economic issues. Could be kept covert/undisclosed for as long as possible due to Mars linking to Neptune and the secrecy of Pluto/Scorpio

April 26-27 2018
The Sun in Taurus links to Mars Jupiter Pluto
Neptune opposite the Moon
Uranus linked to Venus
Saturn square Mercury.
Serious communications kept secret regarding financial matters
update April 27 US



May 7 2018
Neptune and Venus tie up at the same time as Pluto and Mercury
More intense communications about shady financial dealings or financial matters kept secret

[These indicators could indicate certain companies or economies in dire straits but trying to keep the lid on it]

Week starting May 14 2018
Mercury in Taurus links to Neptune - the shady or secretive financial dealings or discussions continue but this is the start of the key week when Uranus officially shifts out of Aries into Taurus. 
Indicators suggest this is when the cat gets out of the bag.
Saturn in Capricorn connects to the lunar nodes - in the signs linked to Sun and Uranus -both in Taurus  -Saturn is the voice of governments, banks, politicians, governments, industry leaders as well as wise old people and those with a moral conscience.
With May 15 being New Moon, new beginning Sun and Moon in Taurus when Uranus sets its plans in place for all things Taurus and Mars in Aquarius sets a challenge with its square to Uranus and Jupiter is close to trining Neptune this complex mix of change, accountability, sudden developments, something out of left field, possibly lots of confusion -we're hanging on to see what manifests out of this astrological weather pattern.
The north Node is in Leo and so connects to Sun then in Taurus = money/asset dramas. The range of possibilities could easily involve sharemarket meltdowns,  company crashes, economic failures, seismic shifts in monetary stability.

If you have any hunches about what is unfolding in May now could be the right time to mitigate and seek some protection. 
Shifts of energy like this involving Uranus are globally relevant.

April 2017 - Extreme Forces in Many Contexts

Extreme forces predicted for April 2017 are manifesting with great frequency.
Updates confirm multiple extreme force events
Extreme Weather
Extreme forces that began to combine from as early as late February 2017 and began to manifest in March 2017 are sustained through April 2017 in diverse global locations.



One manifestion of the intense energy combinations is extreme weather with water proving to be a major destructive element.

Although environmental devastation from these forces is a well-documented outcome [events consistently coinciding with planetary indicators] - the outcomes are not limited to one level  or one context of expression.

Relating

  • The intense forces prevailing in April 2017 have direct human-human consequences, impacting dynamics between people and their relationships.
  • The pressures require significant upgrades in the style and quality of people's conduct towards each other  - or estrangement/separation/endings are the likely events facing them in April. In some situations a need for reality checking is required in order to rebalance a relationship
  • Loss of relationship due to external events will also occur for many.

Money
Money problems and losses, events affecting assets - events in April will impact the financial and material circumstances of many people globally.
For some people this may be due to a loss of their home from extreme weather or major damage with no insurance.
This is not a great month to do well financially, take financial risks or to start a business - and this is likely to be demonstrated in global market declines.

Extreme Forces - human generated
Extreme energies always have the capacity to manifest through human behaviour and activity. The potential for destructive outcomes as a result of human intention remains higher than normal during April.

 and Leah Whitehouse's monthly report for a different emphasis in interpreting the hand that is dealt to us in April 2017. [Astrologers have their own reading style & mine would be in the least conventional and more global category]

confirmational updates from relevant global news:
diverse locations for effects of extreme weather already in effect include US reported April 3 and most fatally Colombia [mudslides after deluges] since March 31
April 3 Metro bombing in St Petersburg Russia multiple fatalities and injuries
April 4 Sarin gas suspected in mass exposure with dozens of fatalities and injuries inflicted in Syrian location Khan Shiekhun
April 5 extreme weather involving water and wind in New Zealand
April 6 extreme weather involving water, wind and associated landslips/mudslides continues to affect New Zealand -lower north and upper south islands
Several related news reports from US across the nation and one from India showing same intensity of weather

April 6 -extreme force in the form of a missile attack involving 59 cruise missiles launched on command of President Trump against Syrian military -in response to the April 4 Sarin gas attack in Syria by the Syrian regime
April 7 -extreme force by use of a speeding lorry deliberately crashed into a department store -deaths and injuries as people mowed down in Stockholm Sweden
April 9 multiple deaths in 2 blasts in Egypt on Palm Sunday
April 9 seismic stress is another example of extreme force -New Zealand is experiencing a fresh run of seismic unrest including in the vulnerable cook Strait region near the capitol, Wellington
April 10 - as anticipated, flow-on effects involving money/assets have already arisen from environmental damage. Markets & currencies are also in the firing line to trend downwards in April.  Awaiting global trend as April 10 gradually opens but NZ currency has dropped to a 4 week low
April 13 stocks fell across Asia, Us dollar and Treasury bond yields slumped to lowest for 2017
April 13 US discharged a GBU-43/B Massive Ordinance Air Blast Bomb in Afghanistan against ISIS
April 15 tensions between US and North Korea reach a dangerous level

Background on Extreme Weather
rewinding to a post from Oct 2013..with 2017 updates -including more reference to significant planetary factors 





 


The GC -galactic centre -the rotational centre of the Milky Way galaxy - at 27 Sagittarius is an energy point of unimaginable potency
Significant events on earth expressing the power of natural forces can be seen to cluster in the time frame of a GC activation.
This includes major movements or quantities of fire, earth, air and water and can include floods, landslides, earthquakes, volcanic activity, tornadoes, typhoons, hurricanes, torrential rain, tsunami, wildfires, explosive events - as well as including events of this type perpetuated by human activity [ Hiroshima-Nagasaki 1944].
scroll to end for updates to 2017
Typhoon Haiyan has slammed Philippines -an example of GC generated extreme forces
 update Nov 8 2013

Observations [above] made October 21 2013 re the roles of Saturn in October [12 Scorpio] & the November Scorpio eclipse [11 Scorpio] in activating by semisquare the Galactic Centre position of 27 SAG
above are the most potent activators of Galactic Centre energies, stepped down into the environment of Earth, with 27 SAG as the actual position of the galactic centre and all points at 90 and 180 degrees of that being significant, as well as all positions midway = 12 degrees in all 4 fixed energy signs [Scorpio, Taurus, Leo, Aquarius] Any one occupied position has an equal capacity to trigger any or all others
The GC gets activated annually by the Sun around December 19
In 2013 only Mercury  [Jan 17] and Venus [November 2] make the same exact conjunction to 27 SAG. But these alone do not give rise to major activations.
My energy analysis method always includes the GC activations by the remaining signs of the mutable quartet - PISCES VIRGO GEMINI as well as the semi & sesqui squares = 12 degree position of any of the fixed signs SCORPIO TAURUS  LEO AQUARIUS.

When the 27 MUTABLE or 12 FIXED sign positions feature in a New, Full Moon or Eclipse the likelihood of extreme forces arising to a significant extent in diverse earth locations is worth considering
Milky Way Galactic Centre
It so happens from late 2013 into 2014 there is a run on these relevant factors with strong activations of the GC energy delivered by:


September full moon 27 PISCES
October lunar eclipse SATURN at 12 SCORPIO
November solar eclipse at 11 SCORPIO being midpoint of MERC-NODES-SAT
December full moon at 25 GEMINI
January new moon 11 AQUARIUS
March full moon 26 VIRGO

Exact positions at 27 or 12 are strongest but + or - 2 degrees is well within range of effect - giving a range 25-29 Mutable and 10-14 Fixed to consider.

Full and New Moons begin to be effective days before exactitude and until the following new or full state.
Eclipses belong to a six-monthly cycle so the effects can spread ahead that far - as well as being pre-triggered -one of the qualities of space-time that defies the limited linear logic of manufactured earth-time.

The period September 2013 - May 2014
is likely to be notable for many more extreme weather events and major environmental events which reveal the potency of the forces of nature.

The role of the paired transformers Pluto & Uranus locked at a 90 degree angle is undeniable in accentuating or aggravating the situation.
These two energies are very representative of Galactic Centre forces so their current activation provides a double-whammy effect whenever our solar system is zapped by a blast from the GC 

A torus of super-heated dust surrounding the galactic centre black Hole -artist's conception

Updates
Prior historical example:
CYCLONE Yasi formed January 26 2011.
Dissipated Feb 3 2011
GC activation came via URANUS  in conjunction with JUPITER  =  both at 27 Pisces on January 4 2011. The process was set in motion weeks before the cyclone formed.
[ 27 Pisces is at exact 90 degrees to the GC & therefore a very strong trigger - made stronger by the combined mega force of Jupiter blended with Uranus the force of change.]

The etymology of the word typhoon is of interest in terms of the most likely link back to Greek mythology
TYPHOEUS aka TYPHON  was a monstrous immortal storm-giant...so huge his head was said to brush the stars..
He appeared man-shaped down to the thighs, with two coiled vipers in place of legs. Attached to his hands in place of fingers were a hundred serpent heads, fifty per hand. He was winged, with dirty matted hair and beard, pointed ears, and eyes flashing fire. According to some he had two hundred hands each with fifty serpents for fingers and a hundred heads, one in human form with the rest being heads of bulls, boars, serpents, lions and leopards. As a volcano-daimon, Typhoeus hurled red-hot rocks at the sky and storms of fire boiled from his mouth.

December 2013
Around Dec 8
Heavy snowfall across Northern Hemisphere & in unusual places -Egypt, Hawaii, Middle East -all due to a jet stream snaking much further southwards in a meridional pattern rather than zonal
The Full Moon at 25 SAG-GEM was within range of the GC & thus geoeffective in the time frame of a lunar month into January
 The Sun reached the Galactic Centre point late on Dec 18 UT at 27 SAG and Mercury too on Dec 22 - allowing for a conjoined activation of the GC forces in the period around Dec 20-22 
The important seasonal markers at zero Cardinal [Capricorn-Cancer, Aries-Libra] are also likely to be caught up in the timing of GC activations since 27 SAG is just 3 degrees from 0 Capricorn and the whole spectrum is activated at all other seasonal markers in March, June, September as well as in December
December 2013 is particularly worth observing for the added complexity of the Sun-Pluto-Mercury-Mars-Uranus synergistic activation from even as early as Dec 29 then strengthening in days to New Years Eve, January 1 & 2 2014
Natural forces [i.e. expressed as weather] & biological behaviour -human & other species vulnerable [with variation dependent on individual susceptibility] to disturbed, volatile & stress effects which will be evident in a range of news reports
From Weather Action :

Dec 21
Piers Corbyn from Weather Action says the North Atlantic jet stream reached a record 275 mph on Dec 22 2013 -consistent with the long range prediction of wild jet stream events in the shift to a Mini Ice Age circulation pattern.
Corbyn's methodology is centred around solar activity which impacts Earth. 
His analysis also targets the end of Dec 2013 & into January 2014:
"Newly erupting active sunspot regions are coming round to be Earth-facing (below) when we predicted and will drive dangerous weather conditions around end Dec and start Jan in USA, Brit+Ire, Europe and the whole world."
"This 'Mini-Ice-Age increase in wild and extreme events will continue for the next 20 years" 
Dec 22 UT In my locale the weather has undergone a sudden change from an unusually warm start of summer to cooler temps due to squally gusts of wind

2017 updates
MARCH
With the Galactic Center 27 SAG being activated by exact alignment from transiting Saturn at 27 Sagittarius, beginning effectiveness from start of March 2017 intense outcomes anticipated soon began to be evident. 
One planet alone is usually not significant enough to bring the worst extremes. [severe quakes, colossal tsunamis]
In March 2017 Saturn at 27 degrees links with any other activating factors at 27 and 12 degrees. 
The Sun and Neptune match these positions during March: Neptune [water indicator] for most of the month and the Sun at/in range of 12 degrees from March 2-4. 
From March 6 [UT] Mars at 27 Aries energises Saturn at 27 Sagittarius - extending over several days
The probabilities for heavy rain with flooding and destructive conditions creating losses and obstructions will also be very high in this time frame.
Just as March began [3rd] an indicator of extremes was in place -the exact opposition of Jupiter and Uranus. This opposition has an effective time frame of just over 2 weeks [until at least March 19] in which to keep generating more systems. This energy combination generates unbalanced energies and would have contributed significantly to extreme atmospheric conditions and the creation of disturbed, destructive weather systems. 
The Sun reaching 21-23 degees in the March 11-March 13 period synergises with this potent energy.
Then importantly 17-20th March when firstly the Sun is at 27 degrees, soon joined by the Moon on the 20th of March.

Regions of New Zealand's North Island beginning 7 March experienced extreme flooding followed by forceful winds -with conditions enduring several days after a brief lull between systems.
Other global locations showed related effects in this time period -as reported March 9 - India, Pakistan, Atlanta US...
Memphis and UK heavy rain news



NZ reports from: Coromandel region  Waiheke Island
Clevedon  summary of damage
NZ Metservice forecast 9 March 




March 2017 Fatalities recorded in Madagascar cyclone

March 12 2017
further extreme rainfall on Sunday has deluged nearly 200 properties across Auckland City

mid-March saw  blizzard conditions in north-east US regions

March 14 saw the start of extreme rain, flooding and mudslides in PeruThis follows an intense period of extreme weather since early in 2017

By 28 March 2017 Queensland Australia was subject to Cyclone Debbie. The initial effects were followed by extreme widespread flooding affecting an even larger landscape than initially affected -even by April 2 more flooding was anticipated

Saturn on GC
With Saturn's transiting position in Sagittarius remaining within the 27-28 degree range throughout April and still within the 26-27 degree range for most of May 2017 it is anticipated that activation of Galactic Centre [GC] energies is creating exactly the turbulent forces that generate extreme weather. The higher potential for this looks to be increased in April 2017 with Neptune [the water indicator] also highly activated [Uranus+Sun transits through Aries]
The 3rd factor [and there is always more than one] is thatimbalance underlies the generation of these extreme forces. Energy related to extreme unbalanced forces was generated at the end of March [Pluto+Jupiter] and the triggers spawned at that time were given the force to unfold in days ahead...ready to merge increasingly from April 4 with Saturn barely moving from its transiting position, intensifying through the first week of April to lead into the developing Saturn-Venus energy at 28 Sagittarius and the Sun-Jupiter-Pluto energies combining from April 7.
Extreme forces remain locked in for a lengthy period, with many different manifestations - weather or environmentally related as well as human induced - with a likely time frame from April 7-19 2017
So this is a big package of extreme and destructive forces which will be manifested in many global locations
