Japan: the Post-War constitution chart

 

 

Dear friends,

 

Given the encouragement from to study the 3° 25'

Capricorn rising chart for Japan, which is based on the Post-War

constitution, I offer the following reading.

 

In The Book of World Horoscopes by Nicholas Campion (1996 ed) it is stated

that " Horoscopes for modern Japan are also set for the revival of the

country following the defeat in the second world war in 1945, and its

occupation by the USA. One alternative is set for the coming into effect of

the post-war constitution, apparently at 0.00 hrs on 3 May 1947 in Tokyo.

The constitution promulgated on 3 November 1946, and formally presented to

the Diet (parliament) by the Emperor in the morning and marked by ceremonies

in the afternoon. The chart is set for 3 May 1947, for 12.00 noon and for

Tokyo. "

 

This suggests there may be some uncertainty with regard to the actual time.

 

First let's review some of the things has written about

the sign Capricorn that may have relevance in the context of a mundane

chart:

 

“The sign Capricorn is ruled by Saturn. It is a negative, non-human, earthy

and semi-fruitful sign. Capricornians are social as Venus rules their tenth

house. They are conservative, selfish and selective in approach. They are

secretive, pensive, organised, proud and fastidious. They are vigilant and

tactful. They have compromising nature in order to achieve leadership.

 

The major stress area is the fluctuating status of their own fortune as

Mercury, the planet of fluctuations, rules the ninth house of Capricornians.

They long for leadership, political power, practice of law and business.

Their major pursuits in life include acquisition of assets, partnerships and

social contacts for personal benefits and selfish ends.

 

The significator for the soul, the Sun and significator for morality and

generosity, Jupiter, are functional malefics for Capricornians. The strong

Sun and Jupiter ensure a happy and harmonious married life and Capricornians

prefer enjoying a comfortable life.

 

The mooltrikona sign of Mars is in the fourth house, and the strength of

Mars in its period governs the acquisition of assets, good education,

alertness and passionate married life. One gets happiness from long-lived

mother when Mars is strong.

 

A strong Moon assures good success in foreign policy. As stated earlier, the

major stress area is the ninth house, where mooltrikona sign of weakness

prone Mercury falls. The sign Libra of Venus plays a major role in the life

of Capricornians, as their professional success is dependant on the good

strength of Venus. "

 

Now lets us look at the chart based on the given time. First we see that 2nd

lord Saturn is placed at 9° 34' Cancer in the 7th house of foreign policy.

The Japanes people would be concerned with foreign policy and their place in

the world. The dispositor of Saturn is the 7th lord Moon, which is placed at

17° 40' Virgo H9. This is a lucky placement. Moreover, Moon is under aspect

from exalted 10th lord Venus at 15° 50' Pisces H3. This suggests that

foreign policy is closely connected with foreign trade. Next we consider the

dispositor of the Moon, 9th lord Mercury. It is at 3° 47' Aries H4 and thus

has 75% strength. As Mercury is on the rising degree it is favourably

aspecting the 4th and 10th houses. This ties the indications of the 7th

house and 10th house closer together, but is also indicates good luck with

regard to natural resources, fixed properties and social stability on the

one hand and foreign trade and executive government on the other.

However, given the slight weakness of Mercury in infancy, Saturn only

enjoys 75% strength on account of its strength depending on its final

dispositor, Mercury. Now we consider two additional influences on Saturn,

namely the close aspect of Ketu at 9° 30' Scorpio in the 11th house. This

adds a pronounced separative influence to the status and ties with

neighboring countries. Indeed, Japan is at odds with its closest neighbors

China and Korea (both South and North), due to hard experiences in World War

II and different political systems, notably in China. Moreover, Japan does

not enjoy as active a role in foreign policy as its population size (around

100 million people) and significant economic power could suggest. Rather,

Japan often seems to act as a silent partner to the USA in world affairs.

Finally, with regard to Saturn, we can note that 12th lord Jupiter at 1° 02'

Scorpio in the 11th house, is on the most effective point and thus afflicts

the

7th house MEP, wherein Saturn resides. This adds weakness to Saturn and

adds a further separative energy to the 7th house and notably Saturn. This

helps to explain why Japan has the distinct feature of being the furthermost

" Western " power. Moreover, these complex placements suggest the foreign

policy is hampered by setbacks or limitations. Japan has not been allowed to

have a strong military since WWII.

 

The key strength of Japan is the placement of its 4th lord, Mars, at 22° 49'

Pisces in the 3rd house along with exalted 10th lord Venus. With both 4th

and 10th lords in the 3rd house, Japan favours foreign trade in high tech

goods and derives considerable satisfaction from new inititiatives. This

placement suggests the business sector is quite dynamic. This is attested by

the fact that some of the best known global brand names come from Japan,

including Toyota, Sony, Yamaha and Mitsubishi. Many nice artists, including

singers, musicians and filmmakers, hail from this country.

 

The Sun as 8th lord, is strong at 18° 14' Aries H4 and it is unafflicted.

This suggests the leader of the country has an important role to facilitate

the social harmony. At the same time, as it is 8th lord, there could be some

obstacles to 4th house indications, such as real estate, natural resources

or social harmony. However, as Sun is not on the most effective point on the

house and is not afflicting or afflicted in the chart, the influence is not

great.

 

As 12th lord, Jupiter is placed on the MEP of the 11th house, there could be

losses to the sources of income. This influence could also mean that the

nation has a sense of loss involving its national aspirations (unlike e.g.

the USA which has L1 Moon strong in H11 and has a strong sense of

accomplishment with respect to its aspirations). With Ketu in the 11th

house, the sources of income would could be otherworldly. With Rahu in the

5th house, the children would be worldly and there could be problems in this

area due to aspect of Jupiter. With Jupiter as 12th lord on H11 MEP and

aspecting H5, the phenomen of a cult of young people that tried to gas

ordinary people in the subways, comes to mind. Also, the strange fashion

trends of young Japanese adults comes to mind.

 

Interestingly, the affliction of L2 Saturn by Ketu suggests sudden even

violent events disrupting the wealth and status of the nation. The

affliction of the 11th and 7th, 5th and 3rd house by the 12th lord of losses

subjects the country to losses in income, foreign policy, speculation and

new business enterprises. In short, the chart seems to offer sufficient

potential for explaining disruptions to the economic life.

 

Let´s examine a few notable events with respect to transit and period

influences.

 

First, let's consider the stock bust that happened around the turn of the

year 1989 and 1990 and lasted for over a decade.

 

Background: In May 1989 the Bank of Japan began to raise its discount rate

from 2.5% to counter a perceived threat of inflation. The original rate had

helped propel the Nikkei 225 index from 11,500 as recently as 1984 to about

38,900 by late 1989. On Dec 31, 1989, the Japanese Nikkei Index peaked at

38,915 (when the DJIA was at 2753). The Nikkei index fell below 9,000 by

2002, shedding over 75% of its peak value. The discount interest rate stood

at 6.0% by the end of 1990, which shows that the central bank of Japan was

too late in reducing the rate, when the crisis was unfolding, increasing its

severity, entrenchment and hence duration.

 

Natal potential: L12 Jupiter in infancy afflicting the most effective point

of the 11th house and L2 Saturn is weak and severely afflicted in the 7th

house. Period incluences: the Jupiter major period and Mars sub-period were

operating. With Jupite influence there would be losses associated with

income and speculation. With 4th lord Mars placed in the 3rd house, there

would be contentment from new initiatives.

 

Transit influences: When the market crash began, transit L12 Jupiter was in

the 6th house of financial stability. Meanwhile, L2 Saturn was transiting

the 12th house with 8th lord Sun. Transit Ketu was in the 7th house exactly

aspecting Mars in the 3rd house. The streak of optimsim and faith in an ever

rising income was suddenly broken and the market crashed in the month of

January - with the Nikkei sagging for many years.

 

Second, now let us consider the famous Kobe earthquake of 1995.

 

Background: This earthquake, better known in Japan as the Great Hanshin

Earthquake, measured 7.2 on the Richter magnitude scale. It struck at 5:47

a.m. on Tuesday, January 17, 1995 in the southern part of Hyogo Prefecture

and lasted for approximately 20 seconds. The focus of the earthquake was

located 16 km beneath its epicenter, on the northern end of Awaji Island, 20

km away from the city of Kobe with its population of 1.5 million. This is in

the middle of the fault zone of the Pacific, Eurasian and Philippine

tectonic plates.

 

Natal potential: Sun as 8th lord is placed in the 4th house of real estate.

Ketu afflicts closely the 2nd lord of wealth Saturn, also a general

indicator of structures.

 

Period: Saturn major period and Saturn sub-period were operating.

 

Transit influences: transit Ketu was closely conjunct 8th lord Sun, while

transit Rahu was closely aspecting transit Saturn in the 2nd house. Transit

8th lord Sun was exactly conjunct the most effective point of the 1st house.

Transit Moon in 7th house was under close aspect of natal 12th lord Jupiter.

Meanwhile transit Jupiter in the 11th house was closely conjunct 10th lord

Venus. Last but not least, 4th lord Mars was transiting the 8th house of

obstacles.

 

In view of the above indications of natal potential and the match with two

major events in the modern history of Japan, the study of this chart

certainly begins with promise.

 

In closing, let me comment on the present period and transit influences in

the chart. The Saturn major period and Rahu sub-period are running. Rahu

is strong and unafflicted and unafflicting in the chart. This suggests there

would be worldly progress with regard to 5th house indications. The transits

at the present time are, however not easy. Rahu is stationary conjunct the

most effective point of the 2nd house of wealth and status, while afflicting

the 6th house of financial stability, 8th house of obstacles and 10th house

of foreign trade. Meanwhile Ketu is afflicting the 8th house, 12th house,

2nd house and 4th house. The transit station of the nodes would be

especially difficult as 2nd lord Saturn is now transiting the 8th house of

obstacles. Hence, we would expect to see setbacks to the 2nd house

indications. Indeed, the Nikkei average has in recent weeks fallen very

steeply. As the nodes will remain stationary until late March, the situation

would be expected to remain especially difficult for Japan during this

time. Adding to the strain is transit of 4th lord Mars through Gemini and

6th house under affliction now by Rahu in the 2nd house. Moreover, the

transit of 10th lord Venus through the 12th house, also currently under the

aspect of Ketu in the 8th house, would suggest a setback for foreign trade.

Finally, as Jupiter is in its own 12th house, there would be less problems

in foreign countries at the present time. In recent days, the situation

would also have been aggravated by the transit of 8th lord Sun in Capricorn

into the aspect of natal Rahu in the 5th house.

 

Best wishes,

Dear Vyas,

 

Glad to have your assessment on the financial aspects of the Post-War

Constitution chart. You join and me in concluding

that it is a promising candidate for an authentic chart for Japan.

This means we can invest more time to research it, including by

making predictions against it, with a greater probablity that the

results will be positive. Next stop, the yen exchange rates or Nikkei

stock index?

 

Best wishes,

 

Thor

Dear Thor:

 

Thank you again for your posts regarding the various countries, their

histories as well as the celebrities charts ... very interesting to

study ...

 

I notice that the current stationary transit Ketu is also afflicting

the 9th lord, natal Mercury, during this time ... this would add to

the stress that you already mentioned regarding natal Mercury and its

significations ...

 

Any additional insights from you on this affliction would be much

appreciated ...

 

Thanks again and Best Wishes,

 

Mew

stated that " Horoscopes for modern Japan are also set for the revival

of the country following the defeat in the second world war in 1945,

into effect of the post-war constitution, apparently at 0.00 hrs on 3

May 1947 in Tokyo. The constitution promulgated on 3 November 1946,

and formally presented to the Diet (parliament) by the Emperor in the

morning and marked by ceremonies in the afternoon. The chart is set

for 3 May 1947, for 12.00 noon and for Tokyo. "

written about the sign Capricorn that may have relevance in the

context of a mundane chart:

>

> " The sign Capricorn is ruled by Saturn. It is a negative, non-

human, earthy and semi-fruitful sign. Capricornians are social as

Venus rules their tenth house. They are conservative, selfish and

selective in approach. They are secretive, pensive, organised, proud

and fastidious. They are vigilant and tactful. They have

compromising nature in order to achieve leadership.

>

> The major stress area is the fluctuating status of their own

fortune as Mercury, the planet of fluctuations, rules the ninth house

of Capricornians. They long for leadership, political power, practice

of law and business. Their major pursuits in life include acquisition

of assets, partnerships and social contacts for personal benefits and

selfish ends.

>

> The significator for the soul, the Sun and significator for

morality and generosity, Jupiter, are functional malefics for

Capricornians. The strong Sun and Jupiter ensure a happy and

harmonious married life and Capricornians prefer enjoying a

comfortable life.

>

> The mooltrikona sign of Mars is in the fourth house, and the

strength of Mars in its period governs the acquisition of assets,

good education, alertness and passionate married life. One gets

happiness from long-lived mother when Mars is strong.

>

> A strong Moon assures good success in foreign policy. As stated

earlier, the major stress area is the ninth house, where mooltrikona

sign of weakness prone Mercury falls. The sign Libra of Venus plays a

major role in the life of Capricornians, as their professional

success is dependant on the good strength of Venus. "

>

> Now lets us look at the chart based on the given time. First we see

that 2nd lord Saturn is placed at 9° 34' Cancer in the 7th house of

foreign policy. The Japanes people would be concerned with foreign

policy and their place in the world. The dispositor of Saturn is the

7th lord Moon, which is placed at 17° 40' Virgo H9. This is a lucky

placement. Moreover, Moon is under aspect from exalted 10th lord

Venus at 15° 50' Pisces H3. This suggests that foreign policy is

closely connected with foreign trade. Next we consider the dispositor

of the Moon, 9th lord Mercury. It is at 3° 47' Aries H4 and thus has

75% strength. As Mercury is on the rising degree it is favourably

aspecting the 4th and 10th houses. This ties the indications of the

7th house and 10th house closer together, but is also indicates good

luck with regard to natural resources, fixed properties and social

stability on the one hand and foreign trade and executive government

on the other.

> However, given the slight weakness of Mercury in infancy, Saturn

only enjoys 75% strength on account of its strength depending on its

final dispositor, Mercury. Now we consider two additional influences

on Saturn, namely the close aspect of Ketu at 9° 30' Scorpio in the

11th house. This adds a pronounced separative influence to the status

and ties with neighboring countries. Indeed, Japan is at odds with

its closest neighbors China and Korea (both South and North), due to

hard experiences in World War II and different political systems,

notably in China. Moreover, Japan does not enjoy as active a role in

foreign policy as its population size (around 100 million people) and

significant economic power could suggest. Rather, Japan often seems

to act as a silent partner to the USA in world affairs. Finally, with

regard to Saturn, we can note that 12th lord Jupiter at 1° 02'

Scorpio in the 11th house, is on the most effective point and thus

afflicts the

> 7th house MEP, wherein Saturn resides. This adds weakness to

Saturn and adds a further separative energy to the 7th house and

notably Saturn. This helps to explain why Japan has the distinct

feature of being the furthermost " Western " power. Moreover, these

complex placements suggest the foreign policy is hampered by setbacks

or limitations. Japan has not been allowed to have a strong military

since WWII.

>

> The key strength of Japan is the placement of its 4th lord, Mars,

at 22° 49' Pisces in the 3rd house along with exalted 10th lord

Venus. With both 4th and 10th lords in the 3rd house, Japan favours

foreign trade in high tech goods and derives considerable

satisfaction from new inititiatives. This placement suggests the

business sector is quite dynamic. This is attested by the fact that

some of the best known global brand names come from Japan, including

Toyota, Sony, Yamaha and Mitsubishi. Many nice artists, including

singers, musicians and filmmakers, hail from this country.

>

> The Sun as 8th lord, is strong at 18° 14' Aries H4 and it is

unafflicted. This suggests the leader of the country has an important

role to facilitate the social harmony. At the same time, as it is 8th

lord, there could be some obstacles to 4th house indications, such as

real estate, natural resources or social harmony. However, as Sun is

not on the most effective point on the house and is not afflicting or

afflicted in the chart, the influence is not great.

>

> As 12th lord, Jupiter is placed on the MEP of the 11th house, there

could be losses to the sources of income. This influence could also

mean that the nation has a sense of loss involving its national

aspirations (unlike e.g. the USA which has L1 Moon strong in H11 and

has a strong sense of accomplishment with respect to its

aspirations). With Ketu in the 11th house, the sources of income

would could be otherworldly. With Rahu in the 5th house, the children

would be worldly and there could be problems in this area due to

aspect of Jupiter. With Jupiter as 12th lord on H11 MEP and aspecting

H5, the phenomen of a cult of young people that tried to gas ordinary

people in the subways, comes to mind. Also, the strange fashion

trends of young Japanese adults comes to mind.

>

> Interestingly, the affliction of L2 Saturn by Ketu suggests sudden

even violent events disrupting the wealth and status of the nation.

The affliction of the 11th and 7th, 5th and 3rd house by the 12th

lord of losses subjects the country to losses in income, foreign

policy, speculation and new business enterprises. In short, the chart

seems to offer sufficient potential for explaining disruptions to the

economic life.

> Let´s examine a few notable events with respect to transit and

period influences.

>

> First, let's consider the stock bust that happened around the turn

of the year 1989 and 1990 and lasted for over a decade.

> Background: In May 1989 the Bank of Japan began to raise its

discount rate from 2.5% to counter a perceived threat of inflation.

The original rate had helped propel the Nikkei 225 index from 11,500

the Japanese Nikkei Index peaked at 38,915 (when the DJIA was at

2753). The Nikkei index fell below 9,000 by 2002, shedding over 75%

of its peak value. The discount interest rate stood at 6.0% by the

end of 1990, which shows that the central bank of Japan was too late

in reducing the rate, when the crisis was unfolding, increasing its

severity, entrenchment and hence duration.

Nikkei sagging for many years.

influences in the chart. The Saturn major period and Rahu sub-period

are running. Rahu is strong and unafflicted and unafflicting in the

chart. This suggests there would be worldly progress with regard to

5th house indications. The transits at the present time are, however

not easy. Rahu is stationary conjunct the most effective point of the

2nd house of wealth and status, while afflicting the 6th house of

financial stability, 8th house of obstacles and 10th house of foreign

trade. Meanwhile Ketu is afflicting the 8th house, 12th house, 2nd

house and 4th house. The transit station of the nodes would be

especially difficult as 2nd lord Saturn is now transiting the 8th

house of obstacles. Hence, we would expect to see setbacks to the 2nd

house indications. Indeed, the Nikkei average has in recent weeks

fallen very steeply. As the nodes will remain stationary until late

March, the situation

this time. Adding to the strain is transit of 4th lord Mars through

Gemini and 6th house under affliction now by Rahu in the 2nd house.

Moreover, the transit of 10th lord Venus through the 12th house, also

currently under the aspect of Ketu in the 8th house, would suggest a

setback for foreign trade. Finally, as Jupiter is in its own 12th

house, there would be less problems in foreign countries at the

present time. In recent days, the situation would also have been

aggravated by the transit of 8th lord Sun in Capricorn into the

aspect of natal Rahu in the 5th house.

Dear Mew,

 

I am not in a position to reply on list for a few days. Perhaps you or some other list members would like to take an educated guess.

 

Best wishes,

 

Thor

One alternative is set for the coming into effect of the post-war constitution, apparently at 0.00 hrs on 3 May 1947 in Tokyo. The constitution promulgated on 3 November 1946, and formally presented to the Diet (parliament) by the Emperor in the morning and marked by ceremonies in the afternoon. The chart is set for 3 May

1947, for 12.00 noon and for Tokyo." > > This suggests there may be some uncertainty with regard to the actual time. > > First let's review some of the things has written about the sign Capricorn that may have relevance in the context of a mundane chart:> > "The sign Capricorn is ruled by Saturn. It is a negative, non-human, earthy and semi-fruitful sign. Capricornians are social as Venus rules their tenth house. They are conservative, selfish and selective in approach. They are secretive, pensive, organised, proud and fastidious. They are vigilant and tactful. They have compromising nature in order to achieve leadership. > > The major stress area is the fluctuating status of their own fortune as Mercury, the planet of fluctuations, rules the ninth house of Capricornians. They long for leadership, political power,

practice of law and business. Their major pursuits in life include acquisition of assets, partnerships and social contacts for personal benefits and selfish ends. > > The significator for the soul, the Sun and significator for morality and generosity, Jupiter, are functional malefics for Capricornians. The strong Sun and Jupiter ensure a happy and harmonious married life and Capricornians prefer enjoying a comfortable life. > > The mooltrikona sign of Mars is in the fourth house, and the strength of Mars in its period governs the acquisition of assets, good education, alertness and passionate married life. One gets happiness from long-lived mother when Mars is strong. > > A strong Moon assures good success in foreign policy. As stated earlier, the major stress area is the ninth house, where mooltrikona sign of weakness prone Mercury

falls. The sign Libra of Venus plays a major role in the life of Capricornians, as their professional success is dependant on the good strength of Venus."> > Now lets us look at the chart based on the given time. First we see that 2nd lord Saturn is placed at 9° 34' Cancer in the 7th house of foreign policy. The Japanes people would be concerned with foreign policy and their place in the world. The dispositor of Saturn is the 7th lord Moon, which is placed at 17° 40' Virgo H9. This is a lucky placement. Moreover, Moon is under aspect from exalted 10th lord Venus at 15° 50' Pisces H3. This suggests that foreign policy is closely connected with foreign trade. Next we consider the dispositor of the Moon, 9th lord Mercury. It is at 3° 47' Aries H4 and thus has 75% strength. As Mercury is on the rising degree it is favourably aspecting the 4th and 10th houses. This ties the indications

of the 7th house and 10th house closer together, but is also indicates good luck with regard to natural resources, fixed properties and social stability on the one hand and foreign trade and executive government on the other.> However, given the slight weakness of Mercury in infancy, Saturn only enjoys 75% strength on account of its strength depending on its final dispositor, Mercury. Now we consider two additional influences on Saturn, namely the close aspect of Ketu at 9° 30' Scorpio in the 11th house. This adds a pronounced separative influence to the status and ties with neighboring countries. Indeed, Japan is at odds with its closest neighbors China and Korea (both South and North), due to hard experiences in World War II and different political systems, notably in China. Moreover, Japan does not enjoy as active a role in foreign policy as its population size (around 100 million

people) and significant economic power could suggest. Rather, Japan often seems to act as a silent partner to the USA in world affairs. Finally, with regard to Saturn, we can note that 12th lord Jupiter at 1° 02' Scorpio in the 11th house, is on the most effective point and thus afflicts the> 7th house MEP, wherein Saturn resides. This adds weakness to Saturn and adds a further separative energy to the 7th house and notably Saturn. This helps to explain why Japan has the distinct feature of being the furthermost "Western" power. Moreover, these complex placements suggest the foreign policy is hampered by setbacks or limitations. Japan has not been allowed to have a strong military since WWII.> > The key strength of Japan is the placement of its 4th lord, Mars, at 22° 49' Pisces in the 3rd house along with exalted 10th lord Venus. With both 4th and 10th lords in the

3rd house, Japan favours foreign trade in high tech goods and derives considerable satisfaction from new inititiatives. This placement suggests the business sector is quite dynamic. This is attested by the fact that some of the best known global brand names come from Japan, including Toyota, Sony, Yamaha and Mitsubishi. Many nice artists, including singers, musicians and filmmakers, hail from this country. > > The Sun as 8th lord, is strong at 18° 14' Aries H4 and it is unafflicted. This suggests the leader of the country has an important role to facilitate the social harmony. At the same time, as it is 8th lord, there could be some obstacles to 4th house indications, such as real estate, natural resources or social harmony. However, as Sun is not on the most effective point on the house and is not afflicting or afflicted in the chart, the influence is not great.> > As 12th

lord, Jupiter is placed on the MEP of the 11th house, there could be losses to the sources of income. This influence could also mean that the nation has a sense of loss involving its national aspirations (unlike e.g. the USA which has L1 Moon strong in H11 and has a strong sense of accomplishment with respect to its aspirations). With Ketu in the 11th house, the sources of income would could be otherworldly. With Rahu in the 5th house, the children would be worldly and there could be problems in this area due to aspect of Jupiter. With Jupiter as 12th lord on H11 MEP and aspecting H5, the phenomen of a cult of young people that tried to gas ordinary people in the subways, comes to mind. Also, the strange fashion trends of young Japanese adults comes to mind. > > Interestingly, the affliction of L2 Saturn by Ketu suggests sudden even violent events disrupting the wealth and status of the

nation. The affliction of the 11th and 7th, 5th and 3rd house by the 12th lord of losses subjects the country to losses in income, foreign policy, speculation and new business enterprises. In short, the chart seems to offer sufficient potential for explaining disruptions to the economic life. > > Let´s examine a few notable events with respect to transit and period influences.> > First, let's consider the stock bust that happened around the turn of the year 1989 and 1990 and lasted for over a decade. > > Background: In May 1989 the Bank of Japan began to raise its discount rate from 2.5% to counter a perceived threat of inflation. The original rate had helped propel the Nikkei 225 index from 11,500 as recently as 1984 to about 38,900 by late 1989. On Dec 31, 1989, the Japanese Nikkei Index peaked at 38,915 (when the DJIA was at 2753). The Nikkei index fell

below 9,000 by 2002, shedding over 75% of its peak value. The discount interest rate stood at 6.0% by the end of 1990, which shows that the central bank of Japan was too late in reducing the rate, when the crisis was unfolding, increasing its severity, entrenchment and hence duration. > > Natal potential: L12 Jupiter in infancy afflicting the most effective point of the 11th house and L2 Saturn is weak and severely afflicted in the 7th house. Period incluences: the Jupiter major period and Mars sub-period were operating. With Jupite influence there would be losses associated with income and speculation. With 4th lord Mars placed in the 3rd house, there would be contentment from new initiatives. > > Transit influences: When the market crash began, transit L12 Jupiter was in the 6th house of financial stability. Meanwhile, L2 Saturn was transiting the 12th house with 8th

lord Sun. Transit Ketu was in the 7th house exactly aspecting Mars in the 3rd house. The streak of optimsim and faith in an ever rising income was suddenly broken and the market crashed in the month of January - with the Nikkei sagging for many years.> > Second, now let us consider the famous Kobe earthquake of 1995.> > Background: This earthquake, better known in Japan as the Great Hanshin Earthquake, measured 7.2 on the Richter magnitude scale. It struck at 5:47 a.m. on Tuesday, January 17, 1995 in the southern part of Hyogo Prefecture and lasted for approximately 20 seconds. The focus of the earthquake was located 16 km beneath its epicenter, on the northern end of Awaji Island, 20 km away from the city of Kobe with its population of 1.5 million. This is in the middle of the fault zone of the Pacific, Eurasian and Philippine tectonic plates.> >

Natal potential: Sun as 8th lord is placed in the 4th house of real estate. Ketu afflicts closely the 2nd lord of wealth Saturn, also a general indicator of structures.> > Period: Saturn major period and Saturn sub-period were operating.> > Transit influences: transit Ketu was closely conjunct 8th lord Sun, while transit Rahu was closely aspecting transit Saturn in the 2nd house. Transit 8th lord Sun was exactly conjunct the most effective point of the 1st house. Transit Moon in 7th house was under close aspect of natal 12th lord Jupiter. Meanwhile transit Jupiter in the 11th house was closely conjunct 10th lord Venus. Last but not least, 4th lord Mars was transiting the 8th house of obstacles.> > In view of the above indications of natal potential and the match with two major events in the modern history of Japan, the study of this chart certainly begins with

promise.> > In closing, let me comment on the present period and transit influences in the chart. The Saturn major period and Rahu sub-period are running. Rahu is strong and unafflicted and unafflicting in the chart. This suggests there would be worldly progress with regard to 5th house indications. The transits at the present time are, however not easy. Rahu is stationary conjunct the most effective point of the 2nd house of wealth and status, while afflicting the 6th house of financial stability, 8th house of obstacles and 10th house of foreign trade. Meanwhile Ketu is afflicting the 8th house, 12th house, 2nd house and 4th house. The transit station of the nodes would be especially difficult as 2nd lord Saturn is now transiting the 8th house of obstacles. Hence, we would expect to see setbacks to the 2nd house indications. Indeed, the Nikkei average has in recent weeks

fallen very steeply. As the nodes will remain stationary until late March, the situation> would be expected to remain especially difficult for Japan during this time. Adding to the strain is transit of 4th lord Mars through Gemini and 6th house under affliction now by Rahu in the 2nd house. Moreover, the transit of 10th lord Venus through the 12th house, also currently under the aspect of Ketu in the 8th house, would suggest a setback for foreign trade. Finally, as Jupiter is in its own 12th house, there would be less problems in foreign countries at the present time. In recent days, the situation would also have been aggravated by the transit of 8th lord Sun in Capricorn into the aspect of natal Rahu in the 5th house.> > Best wishes,> > Thor> > Japan Post-war Constitution> May 3, 1947 12:00 AM -09:00 > Tokyo Longitude: 139E45 Latitude:

Dear Thor and list members:

 

Not a problem, Thor, thanks again for all the time and knowledge you

give to this website ... any corrections or further comments to the

following analysis will be very much appreciated, especially since

I've never put forth an analysis on a SAMVA chart for a country! ...

 

With the subperiod being Rahu, my understanding is that this can also

activate more the influence of Ketu ...

 

Ketu when afflicting in a SAMVA chart can bring natural calamities,

violent (actions or events) ...

 

Mercury represents the 9th house significations of the judicial

system, morality, religion, diplomats, foreign missions, progress and

development along with its general significations of stategists,

advisors to head of state and intellectuals ... Mercury is also the

planet of communications ...

 

Transit Ketu is aspecting on natal Mercury from the 8th house of

beliefs of the masses, obstructions, accidents, etc. ... natal

Mercury resides in the 4th house whose natal ruler Mars is strong in

this chart, but currently its transit is very weak in the 6th house

with an influence of transit Rahu on itself and its MT sign ...

 

Throughout this stationary Ra/Ke period of time, I think at times

there could be increased vulnerability for the Mercury significations

I have mentioned and it may involve unrest and/or some type of

violence regarding the masses. Ketu brings spiritual growth through

miseries and given that this involves a planet that rules the 9th

house, perhaps that will be the positive outcome for the Mercury

affliction.

 

Best Wishes,

 

Mew

Dear Mew,

 

Very good post. Indeed, you mention the aspect of transit Ketu in the

8th house to natal 9th lord Mercury in the 4th house MEP. This aspect

is likely to bring sudden obstacles to the indications of Mercury,

disturbing the collective harmony as also transit 4th lord Mars is

now badly placed in 6th house of conflict under the afflicting aspect

of transit Rahu in the 2nd house. It is the influences of malefics on

houses like 4th, 2nd and 6th, or their lords, which can bring about

events that upset the people. Well done.

 

Best wishes,

 

Thor
