Introduction

In this article a preview for the year 2011 is presented. The year 2011 can be indicated as a year of transfer or better as  a year for necessary transformation to tackle the current problems in the our worldwide society. The comments in this article are based on the interpretation of the major geocosmic signatures and the related cycles for 2011.

 Societal challenges

Our world has arrived in a crucial era. Pluto transit in Capricorn indicates the need for deep structural reforms as this transit also indicated about 250 years ago in the era preceding the first Industrial revolution (Adam Smith) and the enlighted despotism of Europe’s monarchies. Pluto in Capricorn will demolish systems that are not in favor of mankind but only for a happy few. Pluto in Capricorn will cooperate narrowly with Uranus entering Aries on March 12^th this year. Uranus in Aries will result in many initiatives for change. Pluto in Capricorn will also cooperate with Neptune entering Pisces between April 4^th and August 6^th and then returning to Aquarius for a couple of months before it starts it 15 years stay in Pisces in 2012. Neptune in Pisces will open eyes for true idealism, however it can also be misused for fraud. However Pluto in Capricorn will always make the real objectives clear.

2011 therefore can be the year of hope and transformation where the world will manage to settle systems serving all mankind, enabling people all over the world to earn a healthy living and disrupting systems used by people gathering more and more wealth at the expense of the poor. Up to now the changes needed in financial systems have not been arranged. They still serve to keep current distribution of power intact.  We still keep going to try to gather enormous amounts of money in simple transactions, without understanding that every dollar earned has to be paid at the same moment. As long as governments and financial institutions support this mechanism there will be no balance in societal developments. 2011 will be the last possibility to make improvements, in 2012 these improvements (especially around June 24 and September 18^th) will be tested on societal tenability. Only those improvements having the objective to contribute to a balanced division of resources and wealth in the world will turn out to have sustainability.

 The climate

The climate in the year 2011 will be experienced as rather warm, especially the period from March to June, however the beginning of this year will be extremely cold, with lots of snow, storms and blizzards endangering the continuous delivery of electricity and other energy. In Western Europe for some time there can be a problem related to this. In the Netherlands they will probably be able to organize another “Elfstedentocht”, a speed skating challenge over more than 200 kilometers through the province of Friesland and passing the 11 cities of this province.

 Societal unrest

In April and May there will be on a rather big scale a chance on societal unrest as e.g. strikes, demonstrations, and other forms of resistance against societal power. On one hand people will try to defend rights that are already obsolete and cannot be preserved on the other hand there will be alert for necessary societal innovations. There will be new disclosures about abuses kept secret.

 Dutch Queen Beatrix

End March or begin April 2011 the Queen of the Netherlands will probably announce that she will withdraw and when this will take place. It will start violent discussions about the constitutional role of the Queen. To keep this discussion in control (there is a real chance for the opposite in September 2011) it would be wise to announce changes in the future role of the Queen at the moment her abdication will be announced.

The solar eclipse at the beginning of 2011

 The solar eclipse of January 4^th 2011 at 9:03 GMT on the 14^th degree of Capricorn gives additional indications for the required change. Bernadette Brady has studied the phenomena of eclipses and published her ideas in her book “Predictive Astrology: the eagle and the lark”. She makes differences between the potential effect of eclipses and categorizes them into Saros series. The eclipse of January 4^th is categorized in Saros series 13 North. It bears energy for transformation of groups and activities for communities. It gives ambition for new initiatives needed to better prepare for the future. Where changes are opposed to, it can be necessary first to remove these obstacles. According to the astrological mandala of Dane Rudhyar the 14^th degree of Capricorn is represented by “An ancient bas-relief, carved in granite, remains a witness to a long forgotten culture”. The important issue here is to distinguish between real traditional values and simple beliefs added by individuals to settle their own power. This a.o. has taken place for centuries in societal mainstreams like capitalism or communism, but also in religions where people are taught in de tail how to believe in the God and how to serve him. It may be obvious the energy of this eclipse can benefit activities in line with the messages from the Saros series and the 14^th degree of Capricorn as a help to achieve societal changes.

Those people whose personal horoscope make aspects to the eclipse will especially be the ones to deal with the challenges of the eclipse. In general this are all people born on January 3^rd or 4^th, April 3^rd or 4^th, July 5^th or 6^th, October 6^th or 7^th. But also other persons could be effected especially those having MC or AC on 14^th degree of a cardinal sign (Capricorn, Aries, Cancer, Libra).

On December 5th there will be a New Moon on 13:29 Sagittarius (14^th degree).

For people in the Netherlands a welcome coincidence as on this evening we also celebrate “Sinterklaas” a folkloristic event where people receive presents from an old bishop on a white horse and assisted by lots of black servants (Zwarte Pieten). And in addition it is marvelous to know that the New Moon also is a sacred moment where we can pass our most intimate wishes to the stars.

Every New Moon always gives the conjunction between the Sun and the Moon, but this time we also have other significant cosmic signatures.

Also Mercury and Pluto make their conjunction on the 5^th degree of Capricorn, Neptune and Chiron make a conjunction on the 27^th degree of Aquarius and Jupiter and Uranus make a conjunction on the last degrees of Pisces.

Another significant event is that Uranus turns direct in the night from 5 to 6 December (GMT). Uranus station guarantees unexpected events. Indeed a nice perspective if you know you are allowed to offer your wishes to the cosmos.

The degree of the New Moon (14^th degree of Sagittarius) gives another nice archetypical picture according to the astrological mandala form Dane Rudhyar (seed man from the beginning of the previous century).

The symbol is: The great pyramid and the sphinx.

It represents the belief in an Original Tradition based on the perfect knowledge of archetypical principles which underlie all manifestations of life on Earth and in the Cosmos.

And the occult knowledge of the almost divine preservers (the Seed Men).

The great Pyramid and the Sphinx are witnesses of this occult knowledge placed according to cosmic principles. The symbol signifies that archetypical knowledge remains the foundation for the mankind’s consciousness and where from lasting and valid formulations can be established when new developments in evolution are on the advent.

The symbol also indicates that occult knowledge and traditions will be the best means to meet the challenges of the current crisis in the world.

Could there be a more beautiful and fitting opportunity to attune our wishes to.

This week NASA published a breakthrough in our vision on the possible environments for  life to exist and also our universe multiplied in number of stars and red dwarfs indicating a far most bigger possibility of the existence of other forms of life somewhere in our cosmic order.

For people interested in cosmology and Original Tradition and being convinced of a coming and never ending flow of coming new insights the cosmos will bring us these are beautiful presents as such. And possibly there will be more and even bigger surprises the coming month.
