Guest guest Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Dear friends,The situation in Zimbabwe is quite dire and the ruler seems to be a genuine despot. The 8° Capricorn rising chart for the founding of the present regime is highly afflicted natally and the regime of Mugabe has been riddled with problems and challenges. Ra/Ve period is running. L12 Jupiter of losses in H11 is now stationary transit afflicting L2 Saturn of status in H7, so it is perhaps not a surprise that neighbors and the international community are critical of the regime. Moreover, L8 Sun is transiting over H3 MEP when the international pressure erupts.Best wishes,ThorAfrica sees Zimbabwe 'meltdown Last Updated: Friday, 23 March 2007, 17:53 GMT S Africa sees Zimbabwe 'meltdown' Mr Mugabe says he is not frightened by anyone South Africa's deputy foreign minister has made the country's strongest comments on neighbouring Zimbabwe, saying it was on the brink of meltdown.

"This dictator must be brought down right now," said Pius Ncube, Archbishop of Bulawayo. "Brought down by people power, not by a violent manner but let people fill the streets and demand that he comes down." But during a rally of Zanu-PF supporters in Harare, the 83-year-old Mr Mugabe remained defiant. "Nothing frightens me, not even little fellows like Bush and Blair. I have seen it all, I don't fear any suffering or a struggle of any kind," Mr Mugabe, who has led Zimbabwe for 27 years, told cheering crowds.
