7 thoughts on “Questions & Facts for context

  1. Any thoughts on the boycotting of US goods and its astrological markers? I always wondered about organised consumer action being a feature of Uranus in Taurus and now, Pluto in Aquarius. Venus retrograde in Aries seems to be a trigger for this consumer warfare.

    (For the context bit) Personally, I don’t know if I am going into an all out deliberate boycott, and if anyone I know is doing so, they’re doing it quietly. I would be more inclined to rethink my support of the tech companies that have acquiesced to MAGA nonsense that things that could affect innocent working people. But having said that, out of curiosity I did buy a certain supermarket’s own brand of cola instead of the 2 American giants, and was surprised at how good it was for 25p a litre. I actually preferred it. I tried to buy some more, but for over a week the shelf has been bare – with the over stacked American branded shelves above it. Yesterday I went into a well known German retailer and saw the same thing.

    • Very interesting Tara. Venus Rx is a good point – I’d say it favours getting antique bargains or undervalued items, which seems to fit with your bargain cola!

      The tech side of current world affairs is fascinating and difficult to understand. Gabriel Gatehouse did a documentary recently on BitCoin, it’s origins, and mysterious ‘inventor’ or inventors. The programme covered some remarkably strange techie philosophies including a widespread rejection of democracy, and the use of cyber currencies to disrupt more or less everything. Using 3 January 2009 as the BitCoin launch date, I can see tr Saturn opposing itself now, having just passed Uranus, 19 Pisces. A Capricorn heavy chart, possibly changing now Pluto has moved on. The acquiescense to MAGA may possibly have another agenda running alongside. Neptune will square the BC Pluto soon, along with Saturn – perhaps a clearer picture may emerge then?

      • Thanks for the recommendation Jane, that’ll be my next watch (unless it’s a podcast?).

        It is interesting seeing the physical stock affected (Venus, Taurus). All those products coming off Canadian shelves does present a potent visual image though I suppose. I don’t know if people are avoiding Amazon etc in the same way. The deeply embedded tech systems (software, servers and of course bitcoin) would be more Aquarius and Scorpio do you think?

    • Just turn off anything and everything that collects data on anything tech-esp discontinue anything AI related sold by Apple and MSFT. Data is the new gold.
