Over the years so many people have told me "China this ... China that", and I am cynical. I really do not think that Chinese Astrology even gets close to proper Astrology. It is basically childish. I call Chinese Astrology "Big Mac" Astrology. One needs to have acurrate measurements and understanding. Forget animals etc etc.
Anyway I was looking at CNN and realised that the Chinese dictators have used the one year countdown to create a massive gathering. Where did they get all that energy from (free oil from Seyyeds). Anyway I thought I would look at the planets' positions on 08:08:2008.
You do not need to be amazingly gifted to see the rather bad day that day is. So much for number 8. Load of bullocks. Moon is in Scorpio, the worst position. Mercury in Leo, the worst position, Venus is in Virgo, the worst position. Sun conjunct South Node, not easy. Jupiter in Capricorn, the worst position. Mars opposite Uranus, stressfull.
It is a nightmare. The funny part is that the Olympics organization have been running ahead of time. The dictators in China have pushed the construction so efficiently that it is way way ahead of schedule.
It can only go wrong. The Spirit will not be with the dictators. Expect a massive flop.
