APRIL TO JUNE 2008

There could be great fluctuation in the revenue and on the money market, in stocks and shares, coupled with an increase of receipts in the Treasury. The weakening of the US dollar tends to give a steadying tone to the money market and the impression of an apparent improvement in the financial conditions of the country.
Programs are implemented to benefit the public health, and to improve the condition of the working classes so as to temper the unrest among them and avert strikes and closure of production. Even as efforts are also undertaken to benefit the AFP, causing heavy expenditures in military affairs, there may be no holding back in late March or early April the overt expression of unrest and the staging of mutiny in the armed forces. The EDSA “march of unity” by the generals in late February does not seem to truly reflect the sentiments of the rest of the AFP.
There could be diplomatic problems with either the United States or China or both. The Administration needs to be on guard against plots, and schemes undertaken involving foreign elements. In the society at large, there will be scandals, separations, crime and immorality in married life, and many unpleasant and disgusting episodes in the law courts.
There will be quite a number of changes in the Cabinet. As well, there will be many sudden deaths, by accident, explosion, electricity, heat, suicide, and in many strange and unaccountable ways. The deaths will be among prominent artistic and musical people.
In May, with the perigee occurring near the New Moon, the terrestrial stresses caused by the gravitational forces acting between the Earth and the Moon could trigger earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.
The police will be busy not only in coping with the increase of crime and violence and maintaining order in the number of public rallies and demonstrations, but also in handling matters related to disasters.
The period may also witness fires in factories and public institutions, as well as prison riots.

I need to deal here with the fortunes of GMA. As president of the country, it is of interest what is in store for GMA this year since our Fates as a people are tied in with her. She is our Karma.
In astrology, one method of forecasting the year is to “return” her Sun on the degree it occupied at birth. I will paraphrase the language of Raphael in delineating the SR horoscope as if she is an ordinary individual. However, the influences of the factors indicated by her chart have their ramifications on her policies and actions that affect her governance and official relations even at the international level.
Although she stresses staying on as president, there will be changes in her career, whether in terms of new possibilities and opportunities. The change in social position will be accompanied by a change in associations through dissolution of a partnership or even by trial. Difficulties and conflicts are due to carelessness, or to schemes of too great a scope, and plans which are too vast. Trouble and complications are indicated, bringing unexpected strife and quarrels caused by enemies, rivals in business, intrigues, and conspiracies. Dangers of enmities are difficult to assuage.
Danger of bad news or carelessness in speech or writing will cause discord in her circle. (Her recent attempts to rationalize her participation in the signing of the NBN deal seem to worsen the issue.)
The period is generally unfavorable for journeys, as well as for beginning business enterprises or projects relying on good publicity. A desire for long travels seems to be the way to escape an existence that is not very satisfactory. A serious medical problem will be revealed forcing her to seek treatment abroad. But difficulties attend the trips, and care is required in making them.
Family matters or those involving the home dominate the year; these are mostly concerns about personal or family secrets. The influence of her family, particularly relating to her sons, is unfavorably accentuated by the positions of the planets. During the period some friends cannot be counted on; there is deception from relationships. Hopes and plans will not be realized. There is increased fatalism, and a philosophic attitude in suffering. There will be infractions, often involuntary, against laws, hence involvements with the police or disputes with the tax people.
