The
Summer Solstice
by Kaye Shinker - June
21, 2007
The solstice
is a very important holiday in the Northern Hemisphere since it
is the longest day of the year.
In the Southern Hemisphere it is the shortest day of the year.
The Sun enters the zodiac sign of
Cancer at 2:06 pm EDT June 21, 2007. The
chart for Washington D.C. is the overlying/background chart for
the Cancer, Leo and Virgo New Moon charts.
Summer Fun - Travel,
Tourism and Entertainment
The Sun with retrograde Mercury appear in the 9th house which
means tourism will be profitable to everyone this summer.
Folks will be inspired to travel and interested in educational
exhibits. They want to play/teach their kids and will be ready
to buy books and videos about the exhibits.
Venus
in the 10th indicates that entertainment venues will earn a bit
more than they expect. Folks are in the mood for concerts, picnics,
thrill rides, and outdoor theater. They will share their experiences
with cameras, videos, and cell phones. Photo shops will be busy.
Saturn cools off profits
for shareholders
Saturn in the 11th indicates a slowing of profits for the shareholders
during this quarter. Weather is a factor especially West of the
Mississippi. Energy conversions are another factor as engineers
begin their search for alternative sources of energy for their
companies.
Crime doesn't pay, but costs the government money
Moon in the 12th indicates that government will concentrate most
of their time and money reducing crime. Most of the criminals
won't have a chance with videos everywhere. The problem will be
where to put them.
Trains Planes and Autos
Trains, trucks, autos, bikes, and barges are in demand. People
are very much concerned about the price of energy, however getting
supplies from here to there is also a priority. With Jupiter and
Pluto in the 3rd, industry will work with ingenious quickness
to move merchandise. architects will design mini distribution
centers for all sorts of merchandise. Energy and pricing pressures
will force new capital expenditures in the transportation of goods.
Commodity brokers go for broke
Neptune in the 5th brings the commodity brokers onto center stage.
Commodity exchanges should profit from increased trading. Entertainment
will try creative new ideas. Children will find creative mischief.
Gambling establishments could find their book keeping records
the subject of government inquiry.
Tools of the trade
Engineers of all stripes will be over employed. Uranus in the
6th suggests that the tools of technology will dominate the market
place. This could also indicate the demand for flextime jobs by
employees. Also traditional office work is very portable and managers
will have to start thinking out of the cubicle.
High energy and a call to fight for what's right
The Aries Mars in the 7th makes a trine to Pluto. Warriors will
succeed.
Cash is always nice
The celestial events that make a difference are: Venus Retrograde
July 27-September 8 and Saturn moving into Virgo on September
3. Therefore leading the way to the Saturn sign change is Venus
Rx. Although traders may make money if they choose high quality
equities, investors making selections for your portfolios between
July 10 and 27 are advised to immediately put in stops at 8% and
then take a vacation. Cash is a good position during Venus rx
since we all have a tendency to buy what I describe as "money
pits"
