Our Economic Redemption

by Drew Lawrence

October 13, 2009

We are about to turn the corner on the economic earthquake that has jolted us all into a greater sense of reality. It is now time to pass beyond the crumbled pavement beneath our feet and begin to step once again upon terra firma. There are three significant dates to bear in mind, according to Vedic astrological calculation.

From October 12th, 2009, Jupiter goes into forward motion, having been in a state of retrograde or backward motion for the past four months. Jupiter represents finances, cash flow, money, economy, banking, the stock exchange, etc. Money should begin to loosen up from this date. Interest rates may fall and the banks may be somewhat more eager to lend us our money which was given to them to bail them out in the first place. Loans and mortgages may become more readily available. And the value of some currencies may rise. Business will slowly increase.

The second date is November 2, 2009. This is when Rahu moves out of Capricorn and Ketu moves out of Cancer. You may remember that Jupiter’s conjunction with Rahu in Capricorn brought on this calamity to begin with. You can review my original accurate predictions of the devastating effects of Jupiter’s entry into Capricorn in conjunction with Rahu if you visit these two links:



The conjunction of Jupiter and Rahu is a yoga (planetary combination) for bankruptcy. And there has been plenty of that going around among banks, businesses and even sovereign states. Although Rahu’s departure from Jupiter’s neighborhood signals a move in the right direction, financially speaking, we must remember that the Yearly Astrological Charts for each country run from March to March. And most countries will still have to play out the planetary influences present from March 2009 through March 2010. For example, if the current governments in Britain and Ireland hold an election before March of 2010, they will surely be defeated.

But nonetheless, Rahu moving away from Jupiter will begin to improve the economy, increase cash flow and maybe even begin, at least, to lower unemployment. Rahu’s conjunction with Jupiter is like a banker, Jupiter, being held at gunpoint by a robber, Rahu, who manages to get away with most of the money! Rahu will exit the bank on November 2nd.

The third favorable date is December 19, 2009. That is the day that Jupiter moves out of Capricorn, his sign of debilitation or greatest weakness and into Aquarius. This is the third of the three dates and we should be fully out of the woods, economically speaking, with Jupiter’s move into Aquarius. From this date, there is nothing holding back the economy for the foreseeable future except the need to continue to repair all of the damage already done. And that may take quite some time for a full recovery as we all know. But the financial devastation that was 2009, officially comes to an end on December 19th.

If you are looking for a job, a mortgage, a loan or want to start a business, these things will be more possible and more likely from this date forward. Strong and lasting signs of recovery will begin to show themselves. If you find yourself in a desperate situation as so many presently do, then December 19 is your target date — the final date of the three favorable dates from which we may begin to achieve our economic redemption.
