THE WORST
Saturn and Pluto ride side by side in the declinations throughout 2016 and came to one their peaks of exactness on April 28.
These two planets entered effective orb December 1, 2015 and the first peak when these two planets were exactly aligned occurred February 9, 2016. The next peak is November 19, 2016.
This alignment is highlighted May 23 and May 24. It is at its peak between May 20 and May 26.
It is a good idea to avoid initiating anything of importance.
Saturn is the planet of control and dominance, rules and regulations, while Pluto rules the banking industry and the loaning of money, so it isn’t surprising that the U.S. Fed raised the interest rates in December.
New rules that affect the mortgage industry were initiated in July 2015, when Saturn was exactly || Pluto in the heliocentric dimension, although full implementation was delayed until October. These rules meant to protect the consumer make the process of getting a mortgage more complicated and time consuming in the U.S.A.
With Saturn || Pluto expect to see attempts to install rules and regulations in the mortgage, banking industries, stock exchanges and other attempts to gain control of great wealth for political power.
It has been interesting to watch some of the candidates criticize and instill fear (Saturn) of those with great wealth and power (Pluto).
