Palestinian/Israeli Stand Off: Situation to Worsen this Fall 2001

(August 20-22 2001) The charts that I have concentrated on are -- Israel’s natal chart; The Palestinian Autonomy chart; The Libra 2001 ingress located for Tel Aviv and Jerusalem; and Ariel Sharon’s chart as well as Yassir Arafat’s.

The more I study these charts for Fall 2001, the more I consider these two states linked at the hip like Siamese twins. Both want the same things. I wish I was writing to say that the violence was going to stop and that peace would once more be restored to the middle east. Unfortunately, this is NOT the case. Foreign allies play a key role in controlling talks this Fall as both sides hold back, neither side trusting. As allies, the Knesset, and Palestinian authorities attempt to reconcile politically this Fall, the terrorism and violence appear to escalate.

Specifically, Ariel Sharon is fighting mad this Fall. Basically, "YOU AIN’T SEEN NOTHING YET." I will be waiting to see the Bull come out of the bull pen so to speak. We will see much closing in on the Full Moon September 2, but more is in store. To say that this guy is protective of his territory is an understatement. Watch out, October 1-2 is key as well as the following week. Closing in on November 2 as key date, and then into November, Sharon’s desire to control his territory intensifies. He is overly ambitious at this time and likely to run into some moral conflicts with other authorities. A time frame in which he will be obsessed with power, and even, fanatical-like. If anything, he wants to expand his territory. He has every intention of using military force. Covert force, or terrorism is a piece to his style, too. This will be increasingly evident mid-October through the first half of November. Again, he leads through military force, he is covert and secretive! Thank the Lord that one of his weaknesses is his loyalty to friends, allies, the Knesset.

Negotiation does not come natural to Sharon. He needs to bring his ideas for peace to the table. A very difficult task for him. Allies and the Knesset will want him to focus on negotiation with the Palestinians. An increasingly difficult task for him ESPECIALLY between September 27-October 11. September 8 and then again on the 18th -- negotiations over who owns what may give a good outward appearance, but both parties are withholding, pulling back, not clear. All in all, both parties are severely effected by what this situation has done financially to this region. Sharon needs to watch out for his political life on or around December 4, 2001. Negotiations the last three weeks of December cover some very difficult issues. Israelis and Palestinians face some very difficult challenges in terms of their religious differences. The tendency toward moral and religious extremes reigns for leaders December 24-25, 2001. There will be changes in leadership responsibilities. January 16, 2002 is likely to be noteworthy of the difficulties that exist for leaders.

Yassir Arafat may be dealing with some depression as he looks at the reality of the situation -- his people are wounded. Both parties continue to lower their standards for fighting. Both are using forms of terrorism. Ariel Sharon has this signature in his chart, and we are well aware of Arafat’s association with terrorist groups.

The Fall 2001 chart strongly indicates that Palestinian and Israelis need to be very careful over their schools, children and places of entertainment. As the Palestinian National Authority has warned on 8.19.01 of the danger in targeting their children with bullets from occupation soldiers. This is an astrological warning -- children (playgrounds, schools, etc.), places of entertainment and fun (nightclubs, discos, movie theaters, etc.) are very likely to be involved in the violence in the Fall. This will be immediately apparent heading into the Fall 2001, October 1-2, October 28, December 4. The eclipses December 14 and December 30 bring wounds and violence foreground. [CNN, November 2001 thru January 2002 -- numerous accounts of escalating violence despite Israel and Palestinian negotiation attempts. CNN, January 5th, 2002 -- Palestinian boat loaded with artillery is confiscated by Israeli armed forces.]

Negotiation attempts over who owns what and financial problems between these two entities occur close to September 8, then again around September 18. Any negotiations made between October 1-22 are not likely to stick, both sides are withholding. Obviously, building trust is a BIG issue here, and yet some trust must occur before any real negotiation can happen. STRONG POSSIBILITIES FOR LAYING A FOUNDATION FOR NEGOTIATIONS EXISTS AS MERCURY GOES DIRECT ON OCTOBER 23-27.

In conclusion, I would be concerned over violence culminating Sept 1-2 and the again closing in on the Full Moon October 1-2. Then, I would be VERY concerned between October 28 day time, with a time frame between October 27 and November 5, 2001. Another violent time frame will be close to November 26 with a window from November 24-December 4, 2001. The violence is so strong. It dominates. The eclipse phase between December 14 and December 30 with key dates of December 24-25 is likely to give Israel and Palestine authorities some religious, moral and ethical extremes. Guys, this is history in the making.
