LONG-TERM:

Global: Video with 2021 predictions on my YouTube channel. 

For ongoing background influences for 2018-2026, see Long Term Astrology Forecast post (no new entries this week). It will be updated as I come up with new long-term predictions. If I do, I’ll mention that the long-term forecast was updated.

DAILY:

In general — a tense week with increased geopolitical tensions and a greater than usual probability of transportation accidents or service disruptions.

MAR 22, 2021 (MON): Medium influence; market may go down (60%). 

Mar 19-23 (esp. 22), 2021 — Increased news about communication/transportation businesses (incl. car manufacturers, airlines, online retailer, and social media), weapons/military, sports (esp. fighting and racing) — we may hear about negotiations, agreements, trade deals, and some long term manufacturing/engineering projects. A communication/transportation company might announce long term plans of improving their business by incorporating high tech solutions, updating the manufacturing process, and using alternative energy sources. For ex., a car manufacturer announces plans to sell more electric cars, build a new plant, use robots to build cars, invest in development of self-driving vehicles, etc. [Such news may trigger concerns about the oil prices and sales (esp. on 3/22-23).] Another example: A airplane manufacturer changes practices, decides to use different moving parts, re-wires some circuits, etc. Lastly, there may be announcements about long-term plans involving weapons or military (e.g., a new long term military operation, weapons sales contract, or changes to weapons manufacturing). More generally, focus on long term strategies and expectation of delayed profits and slow growth (because of the upfront investments and expenses associated with pivoting to new strategies) may bring the market down on 3/22-23.

Mar 21- Apr 1 (esp. Mar 25-27), 2021 — The price of or profits from businesses and products related to the following may increase: weapons, military, sports (esp. fighting, car racing, and any fast dangerous sports), fast cars, car/rocket/plane/etc. engines, explosive materials, etc. These areas may attract investments or be seen as more popular than usual (e.g., an athlete receives a greater than usual reward, the price of some engine goes up, a large weapons sale goes through, etc.).   

Mar 22-26, 2021 — Problematic news for communication and transportation companies (esp. those related to cars, airplanes, flying, or moving fast through the air; and, for companies that rely on internet to do business, such as social media, online retailers, etc.). Also, increased tensions in international negotiations. There may be miscommunication, transportation delays, incorrect assessments, errors in reporting, mis-statements on public platforms, aggressive negotiations, stalled negotiations, a failed acquisition attempt, and even military clashes, etc. Generally, not the best time to finalize agreements as there is an increased chance of confusion, errors, deceit, omission of facts, and so on. If deals are reached at this time, it may be under pressure or duress where one side is forced to accept the deal. In that case, the agreement may not last as one of the parties may eventually rebel. Increased possibility of accidents involving cars and airplanes due to fog, miscommunication, wrong signals, fires, and misfiring. Lastly, there may be increased arguments or some upsetting news related to teachers, students, and young people in general (esp. in the context of students being taught and transported) — for ex., there may be disagreements on how to transport students and/or what to teach them. This situation may involve an online teaching platform or a mobile app. There may even be protests/strikes involving teachers, students, and/or workers from some transportation or communication business (e.g., there is an airplane accident and flight attendants go on strike, or, workers at a car manufacturing plant stage a protest over health concerns). Things may especially heat up on 3/23-24.

USA: Mar 22, 2021 — Focus on leaders and prominent persons and their health, taxes, or finances (e.g., someone’s health or investments are scrutinized). There may be increased emotional public response to the news due to concerns about safety/security/stability (e.g., a prominent person’s house is endangered due to fire).

MAR 23, 2021 (TUE): Medium-Strong influence; market may go down (60%). 

China: Mar 23-28 (esp. 24-25), 2021 — Increased focus on international partnerships, agreements, and negotiations. Communication may slow down and there may be increased tensions with partners. This may have to do with a disconnect between the country’s goal of freely expressing its needs and ways of thinking vs. what may be perceived as external pressure to do things the old way, slower, with many restrictions. Negotiations may escalate and result in confrontations, military clashes, etc. There is also an increased possibility of earthquakes, accidents, building damage, or some other losses (e.g., due to a spike in epidemic or some disaster). The situation or events at this time may attract public attention with population being split on whether they support the response/direction in which things are going or not. 

MAR 24, 2021 (WED): Strong influence; market may go down (65%). As mentioned above, a strong possibility of protests, accidents, threats (e.g., among various countries), unrest, attacks, etc. A day to avoid driving/flying or engaging in extreme sports, entering into important agreements, making important purchases, etc. Travelers may experience delays; communication may get distorted and someones’ words may come across as more threatening than intended.

MAR 25, 2021 (TH): Strong influence; market may go down (60%). Continuing strong possibility of protests, accidents, threats, unrest, attacks, etc. If a threat was made [by some group or a country] on 3/24, there may be follow up actions on 3/25.

Mar 25-27, 2021 — Increased chance of an important announcement, event, or accident involving cars, airplanes (esp. those used for military or faster ones), fires, fighting, weapons, dangerous/fast sports, or risky/aggressive maneuvers. This may range from a communication or transportation company appointing a new aggressive leader or implementing a new risky sales strategy, to an accident/fire/explosion involving a fast moving vehicle or a flying object. There is also an increased probability of accidents or attacks involving prominent individuals (esp. athletes), and of heated conflicts over some agreement or a deal — this may involve weapons, car engines, explosives, and sports. 

Mar 25-30, 2021 — Increased news about healthcare, pharma, medicines, treatments as well as weapons, military, sports, fast cars, car/rocket/plane/etc. engines, explosive materials, fires, etc. Projects, businesses, and products related to these domains may go up in value and/or there may be news about increased costs for these businesses due to some rapid developments (e.g., a new drug comes out — it works really fast but is also more expensive than slower alternatives). Treatments/medicines in the news may relate to treating soldiers, athletes, head trauma, and injuries from shooting, burns, cuts, etc.

MAR 26, 2021 (FR): Strong influence; market may go down (55%). Continuing increased possibility of protests, accidents, threats, unrest, attacks, etc. Today, the tensions may be accompanied by increased international negotiations, discussions related to immigration, and/or implementation of some new legal means (e.g., embargo, tariffs, an international agreement, immigration policy, etc.) to resolve the situation. 

Mar 26, 2021 (+- few days) — There may be increased news about gold and silver and a reversal, possibly from 3/25 to 3/26, or at least increased volatility (possibly a drop followed by an up move). 

———————

>>>> Glance ahead (repeated from last week):

Global/USA: April, August, and December of 2021 — Increased focus on gold prices and the value of US dollar. Gold prices may reverse at those times; this may be related to some monetary policy changes in the US. The situation or issues may first arise in April, be reviewed in August, and reach final resolution/peak in December. Update (01.31.21): This prediction will likely apply to Silver as well. The key dates (+- couple of days) when gold and/or silver price may reverse (probably to down after reaching a TOP) will be around Apr 17, Aug 9, and especially Dec 15, 2021. There may also be a related move or news around Mar 26, 2021, but I am less certain about this date.

Global: Jun 1-6, 2021 (esp. 4-5) — Increased probability of major accidents, earthquakes, problems with mines or underground storage, problems with nuclear power or recycling facilities, escalation of military tensions, antigovernment protests, and of other tense or dangerous events. At the same time, there may be increased disagreements about the price of oil or concerns about transportation of oil, gas, chemicals, beverages, pharmaceuticals, etc. (e.g., a delivery is delayed due to some clashes, accident, or windy weather). 

Global: Jun 29 – Jul 9, 2021 (esp. Jul 1-6) — Increased probability of major accidents, earthquakes, escalation of military tensions, antigovernment protests, fires, explosions, lightening strikes, and of other tense or dangerous events. The events may occur suddenly, and may be due to accidental overheating of some material (e.g., something used in construction or farming) or sudden onset of turbulent weather (tornado, lightening storm). In particular, there is an increased risk of old worn-out metal parts (e.g., parts of an engine) overheating and breaking under pressure; this may affect air travel or airspace-related projects (e.g., a rocket test is unsuccessful). At the same time, there may be wild market swings and excess volatility, esp. related to banks, financial institutions, currencies, and cryptocurrencies. The swings may lead to aggressive governmental regulations. Some asset may be rising and falling like crazy during a short time; the trading may be halted or be stop-and-go.

Global: Sep 1-3, 2021 — Increased stressful news about oil, gas, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, navy, religion, drugs, poisons, lies, beverages, music, movies, etc. This may result in a large market drop on Sep 3, 2021.

Global: Apr 4, 2022 (+- few days) —  Possible major oil spill, chemical attack, major weather event involving excessive precipitation, a large earthquake (with tsunami or floods), or a large-scale industrial accident. As mentioned in the OIL predictions above, around this time (+- few weeks), expect major floods, large-scale oil leaks, flu epidemic or some other infectious disease outbreak, also, an oil price drop due to oil glut. These events may be related (e.g., bad weather affects oil production/transportation and consequently oil prices, or, oil tanker suffers an accident in bad weather and spills large quantities of oil) or they may be independent. 

Global: Aug 1, 2022 (+- few days) — Possible accident, bad weather event, or an industrial disaster involving an airplane or some flying vehicles/objects, electricity, engine, battery, fire, explosion, and excessive speed (where typically slow speed would be expected – such as accelerating too fast or coming to an abrupt stop instead of slowly rolling to a stop). There may also be sudden, surprising, or shocking news involving banks, cryptocurrencies, and finance in general (with focus on digital/on-line solutions). This may involve a sudden cancellation of a project, a business going bankrupt, a company/bank suddenly closing, a valuable asset suddenly sky rocketing or losing all value, a wild swing in the value of some cryptocurrency, a sudden power surge leading to an explosion/fire/power loss, and so on. Lastly, there may be surprising or shocking news involving farming or construction — e.g., a well-known building under construction catches fire, or, production of some food is halted.

USA: Apr 2021 to Mar 2022, particularly Apr-Sep, 2021 and Feb-Mar, 2022 (and within these dates, esp. late Apr to early May, 2021; Aug 20-23, 2021; and late Feb – early Mar, 2022) — Increased news about oil, gas, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, navy, water (e.g., excessive precipitation, hurricanes, water erosion, or contamination), beverages, religion, and drugs. There may be significant developments in the US oil industry as well as large scale engineering initiatives that involve locations near or under water (e.g., undersea cables). At this time, initiatives in the areas above (e.g., oil and pharma) may not go quite as planned due to some confusion, deceptive practices, bad weather, or unclear status. These confusing or unclear situations may be related to healthcare, accounting/bookkeeping, and governmental services such as mail delivery, police, teachers, etc. — for ex., a pharmaceutical company reports an accounting error, or, an unclear healthcare policy affects a price of some medicine. General themes will probably be (A) dissatisfaction with some entities that are not performing as well due to some confusion, lack of clear communication, uncertain status, deceptive practices, pollution, poisoning, etc.; and (B) concerns about damages due to the excessively wet weather, floods, and hurricanes. 

At the same time, there may be increased concerns (similarly due to confusion, uncertainty, bad weather, or lack of transparency) about banks’ assets, loans/mortgages, real estate, savings, food security, housing security, safety of physical structures/buildings, and safety of vulnerable groups (esp. elderly and women/children). For ex., a severe flood [possibly on the Mississippi river] creates problems with food supply; a hurricane damages many buildings; a lack of clarity about some financial policies leads to concerns about the real estate market; or, concerns about a bank’s assets lead to concerns regarding its stability. 

Lastly, there may be increased news about theft and security breaches in the domains above (e.g., oil/gas, pharma, navy, beverages, and banks) — for ex., a bank or pharmacy chain is hacked but the reported details are vague or it is difficult to trace who did what/when).

USA: 2022-2023 — Difficult and may be even turbulent times. Coincides with Neptune’s (confusion, deception, water, oil, chemicals, etc.) transit through the 4th house of real-estate, land, farming, banks, assets, etc. as well as Pluto return (a major overhaul of all old systems and power structures, a rebirth; may be accompanied by scandals and power struggles at the top). Fluctuation in real-estate prices, problems with the banks and financial institutions (banks under water?), floods destroying land and agriculture, oil spills, chemical poisoning of soil, confusion about the borders (of the country and individual entities, such as states), confusion about the leadership, overhaul of the financial system, power plays among corporate and governmental entities [to gain control over resources / profits], overhaul of the power structures, reform or dismantling of power structures or powerful organizations (such as police, nuclear power plants, and banks), massive tax reforms, and even constitutional changes. This may be a chaotic time, but the events may result in certain outdated power structures and dysfunctional systems being purged/reformed. 

Global: Neptune conjunct Saturn in 2025 through early 2026 may coincide with another major viral epidemic. Neptune/Saturn conjunction was in effect during the deadly Spanish flu pandemic of 1918, which killed an estimated 20-50 million people. With Neptune entering Aries at the same time (Aries rules things like military, war, sports, surgery, fire, etc.), the outbreak may be associated with inflammation, fever, dehydration, etc. and/or may be related to bioweapon development, fires spreading pollution, lack of [clean] water due to drought, etc.  

USA: Apr 21 – May 30, 2025 (esp. May 5-12, 2025) and Jan-Feb 2026 — Greater than usual moves in gold and/or silver prices, notable events related to US monetary policy and/or currency value changes.

ALL WEEK: 

Global: Saturn square Uranus on/off (2021-2022) — Ideological clashes, geopolitical tensions, slow-simmering battle between entities favoring more radical/revolutionary/no limit approach and entities favoring status quo/slow/controlled approach. Scientific advancements in aerospace, IT, high tech, telecoms, etc. but with delays, restrictions, and losses (e.g., a space project suffers a loss, which leads to tighter regulations and innovations to correct the flaw). Also, bad weather involving excessive winds and major disasters, in particular landslides, airplane (or space-technology related) accidents, industrial disasters (a la Deepwater Horizon oil spill), explosions of flammables (e.g., improperly stored fireworks), and ships sinking. The situations will likely unfold very rapidly with little time to spare for rescue/repairs; there will be no time to waste. The times when this transit will be felt the strongest are: Jan 9-22, 2021; Feb 13 – Mar 5, 2021; June 03-25, 2021; Jun 29-July 9, 2021; Dec 15-31, 2021; Sep 14-Oct 30, 2022. In late June through July 2021, Saturn Uranus square will be exacerbated by a stressful Mars transit and the three planets will form what’s know as a T-square. This may be a particularly difficult stressful time not favorable for risky activities (e.g., high speed race) — things may quickly get out-of-control or overheat more easily than normally. Jan 2021 (esp. the 24th) looks super tense as well — Mars will join Uranus and Jupiter will join Saturn, so Jupiter/Saturn will square Mars/Uranus conjunction — this is like pouring oil on the fire. Similar transits (also involving Taurus and Aquarius) occurred at the time of the worst fireworks disaster in all of history, the accident occurred in 2000 in Dutch city of Enschede.

OIL: Nov 2020 – Feb 2021 (esp. end of Jan 2021) may see an accident possibly resulting in water pollution and/or some other significant developments related to oil, gas, chemicals, etc. At the same time (end of Jan 2021), there may be some surprising unexpected developments related to earnings, finance, currencies, and banks; this may involve airlines, telecoms, and IT companies — sudden bankruptcies? companies breaking into multiple entities? Massive power/service outages? A spike of problems in the areas above and increased market volatility are likely around Jan 18-29, 2021. Then, in Apr 2021 (esp. 8-11), there may be renewed tensions and fighting over oil or about oil prices. These tensions may be accompanied by a large market drop on Apr 8 and/or 9, 2021. Yet another time of increased oil news (as well as news about gas, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals) will be on Sep 1-3, 2021. The news will probably involve tensions, attacks, arguments, etc. — this may result in a large market drop on Sep 3, 2021. Update (02.15.21): More generally, the following dates may see important news related to oil, gas, chemicals, infectious diseases/pandemic, transportation over water (incl. oil tankers), transportation of liquids (incl. oil and gas), etc. (for example — flu outbreak affects travel, which in turn affects oil prices; hurricane or floods impact oil and gas production, refining, or delivery; oil spill pollutes a body of water and the responsible party’s stock goes down; oil prices rise on bullish news; etc.). This is a look at a glance and subject to adjustments as I do additional research. Updates will be highlighted and dated.

2021

• Mar 1-13, 2021 —  Oil value may increase or reach top, and then possibly reverse to down.
• Apr 8-11, 2021 —  Concerning news related to oil, but also infectious diseases, epidemics, pharma, excessively wet weather, problems involving navy, etc. Possible decline in oil prices in the few days prior. A reversal to up is possible after the 11th (which looks tense), but probably no huge jump as there don’t seem to be any particularly supportive transits.
• Jun 21, 2021 — Oil price may go up around the 21st or in the preceding days.
• Aug 8-10, 2021 — Increased oil-related news and a possible reversal to down or a brief drop in oil prices at this time. This may possibly be related to travel/shipping and changes in the laws (e.g., regulation of travel or shipment procedures). 
• Aug 31 – Sep 3, 2021 — Possibly a drop in oil prices, increased concerns or troubling news in Neptunian areas, incl. spike in infectious diseases, oil spills, pollution, wet weather, floods, etc. 
• Sep 28-30, 2021 — Oil may go up in the days approaching the 28th, then peak and drop (or generally reverse) around the 30th. At that time, there may also be increased concerns about infectious diseases/epidemic, and an announcement of some governmental regulations of travel and communication.
• Oct 25-28, 2021 — Possible drop in oil prices (possibly due to the increase in inventory/availability or an evaluation that the process are too high)
• Nov 27-30, 2021 — Increased news about oil, as well as  infectious diseases/epidemic, wet weather, and travel/shipping. Possible news about travel restrictions (being implemented or lifted), which may affect oil price. There will probably not be a reversal at this time, but more likely a continuation of the existing trend that’s in place… possibly a down trend due to large inventories or high availability.

2022

Apr 4-12, 2022 (+- few weeks) — Possible major floods, large-scale oil leaks, flu epidemic or some other infectious disease outbreak, also, an oil price drop due to oil glut. Oil price may go up in the weeks prior to April 2022, peak around early-to- mid April and go down, possibly on concerns about a surplus of excess oil. There may also be concerns about an excessive number of vessels used for floating oil storage along with increased news about bad weather — taken together, this will increase the probability of an oil spill and other problems, esp. in late Mar to May, 2022. 

2025

Likely, a major reversal point for the oil prices (a new multi-year trend will likely begin).

Generally, increased focus on Neptunian matters (incl. oil price, oil spills, water pollution, clean water shortage, maritime accidents, pandemics, biowarfare, etc.) the entire year with periods of heightened risk for accidents and disasters. For ex., around Feb 1, 2025 could be one such disaster and it may result in a major oil price reversal. Apr 25, 2025 looks bad too… danger of an accident or disaster. Jul 21, 2025 may see some public event or announcement related to oil etc. and this event/news may elicit anger (e.g., the magnitude of pollution is covered up, the responsible party’s fine is deemed too low, some important details are obscured in a report, etc.). Aug 12, 2025 also looks tense. There may be multiple accidents/disasters/epidemic waves throughout the year; alternatively, one large disaster strikes early in 2025 (and/or a pandemic begins) and the rest of the year is spent on cleanup, restoration, repairs, and healing.
