Buddha was born with the Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Scorpio. This similar Full Moon takes place this Friday, April 22, 2016.The basic horoscope of the event is below, per Washington D.C. Note that the Scorpio Moon is almost directly overhead near the Midheaven (circled in green).

Circled in lavender, the stressful T-square of Neptune (in the 2nd house) and Jupiter (in the 8th house) with the Mars / Saturn Conjunction (in the 11th hose) may indicate important stress related to financial areas and activities that may be secretive in nature (since Jupiter is in the 8th house). I don't know if this is stress related to Saudi Arabia (and their recent threat of selling $750 billion in U.S. assets if a 9/11 bill is passed related to 28 pages excluded from the report), and keep in mind that there is also deflation taking place in some key commodities.

The Sun is in conjunction with the star of Stella Mira. According to Vivian Robson, Stella Mira is a combination of Saturn and Jupiter. This represents "a hard choice," but the combination of Jupiter / Saturn can also indicate "the business" and hard choices made in business.

Keep in mind that Mercury goes retrograde April 29, 2016, in the sign of Taurus. The entry of Venus into the sign of Taurus in May of 2016 may also add additional Taurus-type vibrations for May of 2016. Taurus rules Fixed Earth, and this is tied to financial resources, agriculture, artwork (especially related to architecture), and real estate.

This may indicate areas of financial importance in the news for May 2016, and the four-planet T-square in current formation may define stress in these areas.

This may define deflation, but it can also define hard choices being made in business. Note that in the past year that Ford Motor Company has started moving to Brazil, Carrier Air Conditioning is moving from the U.S. to Mexico, and Intel Corporation just announced a lay-off of 12,000 employees (after lobbying for foreign workers).

Something is definitely in the wind, and it may be related to financial integrity and hard choices of business. There is also the possibility that the current situation of U.S. corporate job flight was unfortunately predicted accurately many years ago by H. Ross Perot (i.e. "that sucking sound south of the border").

Things are about to get interesting. There is the possibility that many countries (including China, as predicted by me) may be getting ready to have their financial houses checked out and reshaped for some reason. I suspect it is related to the U.S. presidential election and the fact that the blatant cheating taking place still isn't changing the mood of the U.S. population in anyway. Everyone is p*ssed off, and many aren't buying what is being sold on the airwaves.

Thanks for reading.

Love to all,
