I meant to
put this out a little sooner so that anyone who is able to can be ready for
this. As with all predictions, it is not a done deal. Human error, free will
and timelines all play a part. I started talking about his early on last year
and now this may be coming soon, so I feel the need to warn people in advance,
even if it does not come as soon as foreseen, if at all. In the time between
the last post about this, I’ve been watching the market and gathering more
information.

Merriman is a financial astrologer who has been watching and reporting on
future financial trends for a long time now (http://www.mmacycles.com/).
His insights are given as plain language that anyone can understand, mixed with
astro talk of signs and aspects. He must be doing something right, as financial
analysts and investors have been ordering his reports since he began. In 2012,
he put out an article attempting to predict future trends impacting us now.
Astrology
is fascinating to me because it uses cycles and you can always look back in
history to try to interpret what may be coming up now. It will never be exactly
the same event, but the underlying issue will.
Here is the
overview: We are in the midst of great political, economic and social change
signified by the 90° aspect between slow moving Pluto and Uranus. This lasts a
long time as they meet, then retrograde, and then meet again. The final meeting
for this aspect will be in mid-March of 2015.
Uranus in
Aries prompts individual freedom, even radical and unpredictable action, along
with Pluto in Capricorn, which is going to transform many old institutions if
they can not (or will not) change for the betterment of society and mankind. You
might say that Pluto’s action is to purge ourselves of any poisons that have
subtly come into our body mind and soul, to push us into letting go of ways
that are hurting us. Unfortunately many respond to this by tightening controls
through fear, causing sickness or even their own demise. Pluto will always win.
I’m talking personally here, as well as the global situation.
Merriman
watches Jupiter to pinpoint the actual events of the market’s high and low
points. We are coming up to another low point as Jupiter has entered Leo.
Jupiter runs through about one sign a year. Leo (and Aquarius) will always
correspond with a market low point in a 12 year cycle, each one coming in
around the 6 year mark. This will be another repeat of March 2009, March 2015
being the 6 year mark or midpoint. At the last correction, the market lost
about half its strength. He predicts that a low could hit from now to mid-March
2015, or next around September of 2015, and that the consequences of that will
still be around until 2020. The good thing is that with Uranus, we have the
ability to create something new, even though the event itself comes as a shock.
Merriman
says that the main cause of this downturn is the “debt explosion.” I believe this
is true and psychics agree as well, but there is another factor which I touched
on in a past blog entry about Lynn, who writes the Psychic Focus blog (http://2012vision.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
and scroll down). What she is saying is that, yes there will be a major
correction, it will be bad, but sometime after that there will be a new system
of currency put in to place, one ultimately based on gold. (Here is a reading from
almost a year ago about this http://psychicfocus.blogspot.com/2014/04/quick-question-on-us-financial-problem.html
You can search her blog for more.)
Lynn had seen that the market would
indeed fall after reaching a high. She saw that this would begin around
December 2014 and you would see the market decline in steps. If you were to
look at a graph it would be like two steps down, one step up, repeating itself
until it is at its lowest point. In addition, as a sign that things are headed
down, watch prices of goods and services. When they start to spike for no
reason, that is another indicator. At the time of this post, the Dow and other
markets are coming down a little now from a significant high point. Lynn added that the
markets are “heavily manipulated” at this time.
She goes on
to say that at some point after the downturn, a move will be made to promote
another fiat currency (currently the US dollar) and have it backed by gold to
stabilize things. She says this will be China, who has been preparing for
this for quite a while. The dollar will ultimately fall in value, maybe at
worst in half. That means that your money will not be worth as much as it is
today. Federal Reserve Notes (US money) are not worth that much now anyway, as
the Fed has been using “quantitative easing” (printing money) to prop up the
economy, but this was only forestalling the inevitable.
During the
reset, there may be an interim digital currency that is used as well. We use
that type of thing all the time with credit cards. She goes on to see a sad
situation here in the United
States and in countries over the world that
have weak currency and high debt. This is the Pluto purge and the Uranian surprise,
which is not really a surprise, but has been building and been ignored until it
blows up.
I’m telling
you this so that you can watch for the signs and take action if you can to
reinvest your funds in to something tangible, or at least to know what is
happening so that you are not surprised or so you can start making plans now by
talking to a professional. Silver bullion is a good investment, as Lynn (and
others) have said that silver will be the thing that skyrockets. She says it is
being artificially suppressed in value so that the wealthy “in the know” can
take advantage of this if they want to. I don’t have a time frame on this
change of currency situation, but it will be after the downturn at some point,
maybe a matter of years, I don’t know at this point. Just watch for the signs
in case it does happen on this timeline, in her time frame.
I know that
many have investment funds that will be hit if this downturn happens and you
may not be able to get at them. It’s all right. All but the richest
one-percenters will be in the same boat and we will survive this by helping
each other through it. The government may not be able to help you that much, if
at all. We are going to need to depend on each other.
Just as a
side note, remember that currency is just an exchange of energy. Any group can
get together and create their own currency of exchange, with a value that is
agreed upon by all. There will also be a lot of bartering going on in the
future as the financial mess takes shape.
I know this
sounds scary, but do not fall into fear. Fear lowers your vibration and allows
you to be influenced by outside thought forms. It’s like being hypnotized or
entrained, mainly by the media on commercial TV, but also from being in contact
with others who are afraid. Take action if you can, and if you can not, live
your life with as much joy and positive energy as you can, taking each day as
it comes. This will attract spiritual protection. I also would advise daily
meditation time. When you meditate, you can lift the fear vibration and connect
to you higher self. You become more objective, calm and just know that
everything will work out. ( I have two CDs here with many meditation songs that
can help to get you into the alpha state quickly http://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/CraigHowell
)
Remember
that we are in a great transition in all areas of our lives. Some handle it
better than others, but it is here and we are all taking this roller coaster
ride. We are taking a great evolutionary leap that has been foretold for a long
time. As we rise from our third dimensional mind into a more universal
consciousness, we not only free ourselves from fear, but also free the earth
and all humanity to rise above a level that has been accepted until now, one
that has also been artificially imposed on us for a long while. Now is the
time. Rise up.
Namaste’
