Neptune rules oil, for one thing, with this quarter highlighting the world uncertainty regarding oil supplies. This is especially important to <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/sonar21.com\/13-18-days-the-practical-diesel-buffer-does-it-preclude-bombing-iran\/\">the United States, which suffers from a lack of the middle distillates in its oil<\/a><\/span> required for diesel and jet fuel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The oil traditionally used for those middle distillates for the US has come from the Persian Gulf. And that oil is currently unavailable to the US due to its being blocked by Iran, the latter having control over the Strait of Hormuz. From mid-July to mid-August the strategic reserves of said oil in the US will be depleted, at which time fuel prices will shoot up dramatically. That will also mean the US will be unable to wage any large-scale military actions. Air travel will also suddenly become much more difficult.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Neptune can also represent deception. In the media sphere this is also known as \u2018spin\u2019. And there are several notable items of spin to which we are being subjected at the moment:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foreignaffairs.com\/ukraine\/ukraine-war-turns-tide\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\">Ukraine has turned the tide of the war<\/span><\/a> against Russia and has a chance winning<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/euobserver.com\/215804\/putin-is-on-the-back-foot-russia-is-retreating-but-dont-get-your-hopes-up\/\">Putin is on the back foot<\/a><\/span>, Russia\u2019s <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/93d36f56-d950-46ea-a20c-02cdb1a2e672\">economy is in tatters<\/a><\/span>, the Russian army is plotting <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2026\/05\/04\/europe\/putin-russia-security-intelligence-intl\">a coup against Putin<\/a><\/span>, etc., etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/markets\/article\/the-strait-of-hormuz-is-open-again-it-may-never-get-back-to-normal-100000867.html\">Strait of Hormuz is open<\/a><\/span> and <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ttnews.com\/articles\/hormuz-flooding-oil-markets\">oil is flooding the market<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/c0jy7d7wzv4o\">price of oil has dropped<\/a><\/span> to below pre-war levels<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LkmHy0j7gmE\">Iran has been defeated<\/a><\/span>, its navy and air force destroyed, etc., etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-RMZszjZSNE\">American economy is growing<\/a><\/span> and <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cwy031el03po\">resilient<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/articles\/cg5315n1v5go\">Lebanon and Israel have decided upon a de-escalation model<\/a><\/span> with Israel eventually to withdraw from Lebanon<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">None of the above points are true. The truth of the various matters will be outlined in an upcoming monthly letter, but are too much to go into here in this short blog. To give a thumbnail, though, the Russians are advancing strongly on all fronts, and the Russians have warned the Europeans Russia is ready for war if the EU wants to press matters further. The Russian economy is strong, Putin\u2019s popularity is still quite high and talk of a coup is just that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The Strait of Hormuz <em>is<\/em> open \u2013 just not to American and Israeli ships, or to ships of nations that have not made proper arrangements with the Iranians. Iran still maintains military control over the entire strait. Oil <em>is<\/em> flowing out of the Strait \u2013 to China, India and a few SE Asian states, but not at large volumes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">The oil price, like so many prices for other commodities, is based upon speculation instead of realities. The market price may show to be low now, but that price is illusory and very temporary. The prices are based in futures trading, assuming the Strait will remain open. See preceding paragraph. As we will soon find, that pricing can be very volatile.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Iran is stronger than ever. It is the collective West that has suffered its worst strategic defeat since Vietnam.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">As to the American economy, ask the average American householder how well things are going. Almost certainly you will get a different answer than that in the point above.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">And finally as to Lebanon, no one apparently consulted with Hezbollah, or with Iran about de-escalation. Apparently the acting president Aoun was pressured into signing an unconstitutional and reckless agreement that will quickly see its collapse, as well as probably his presidency. Hezbollah will never give up its weapons and the Lebanese army will not likely try to force matters. Netanyahu seeks to foment a civil war. His gloating over the agreement will be short-lived, which brings us to the midpoints in the ingress chart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">There are four midpoints especially worth noting in the ingress figure:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Sun=Mars\/Plu<\/strong>: \u201cA hard-working person, the ability to work till collapse or complete breakdown. Injury, accident, violent measures, an upset or shock caused through the intervention of Higher Power.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Ura=Mer\/Sat<\/strong>: \u201cGreat inner tension, excitability, haste, incompatibility. &#8211; A sudden release from tension, quick decisions, a quick departure, a car-.ride, the inclination to go one&#8217;s own way. \u2013 A disease of the nerves.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Ura=Sun\/Plu<\/strong>: \u201cCarrying out fanatic reforms without regard for oneself. &#8211; Sudden adjustment to new circumstances (arrest).\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">And most especially:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Plu=Mar\/Sat<\/strong>: \u201cBrutality, the rage or fury of destruction. &#8211; The intervening of Higher Power, bodily injury or harm (murder, the death of a great many people).\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">We have just seen a manifestation of this latter midpoint with <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/2026_Venezuela_earthquakes\">the 2026 Venezuela Earthquakes<\/a><\/span>, which devastated Caracas, killed almost 1,500 people, injured over 3,000 and left almost 70,000 souls unaccounted for. The quakes happened 3 days after the ingress. The chart for the quakes also featured that midpoint. The event chart itself was a classic study in midpoints as they feature strongly in disasters, natural and man-made.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">There were a few claims on social media that the Venezuela quakes were caused by HAARP or some-such \u2013 geo-engineering in other words, used as a weapon against Venezuela. The truth is rather more mundane. There was lightning which preceded the quakes, which was the result of <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/science\/article\/140106-earthquake-lights-earthquake-prediction-geology-science\">piezoelectric effects caused by the shifting of tectonic plates<\/a><\/span>. If those plates are abundant in quartz crystals and other crystalline structures the pressure of the shifts produces electricity. <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mount_Roraima\">Venezuela is richly blessed with quartz crystals<\/a><\/span>. And there is gold in some of them thar crystals. <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Alessia_ing\/status\/2071227413623648360\">Videos of lasers directed at Caracas<\/a><\/span> preceding the quakes were fake, generated by AI and clickbait. Debunked. The dead giveaway was the nighttime setting of the AI video, whereas the quakes took place in daylight hours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">So, what can we realistically expect from this quarter? To get an idea we look at what was f<span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/2026\/03\/20\/the-aries-ingress-of-the-sun-2026\/\">orecast for the previous quarter<\/a><\/span> and what actually eventuated. To start:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">\u201cThis quarter will be involved primarily in the changing of the economic order, especially for the post-World War II system imposed by the Allied powers at the end of the war. This is being dismantled at this very moment in the Persian Gulf as a result of\u00a0<span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/malvinartley.com\/blog.malvinartley.com\/2026\/03\/04\/operation-epic-fury\/\">Operation Epic Fury<\/a><\/span>, by the Iranians instead of the Americans and Gulf monarchies.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Result<\/strong>: The Gulf states are <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.straitstimes.com\/business\/banking\/singapore-a-major-beneficiary-as-the-wealthy-move-money-out-of-troubled-gulf\">moving their money out of the region to banks in Singapore<\/a><\/span>. This affects the petro-dollar. The <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.atlanticcouncil.org\/blogs\/econographics\/is-the-end-of-the-petrodollar-near\/\">petro-dollar is being bypassed<\/a><\/span> now as a result of the war. The petro-dollar was one of the major pillars of US financial power.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">\u201cThe consequences of this war will be long-term, painful for the Western powers, and probably permanent in terms of the next decades.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Result<\/strong>: The US has been driven out of the Persian Gulf region, essentially. Their bases there have been rendered unusable and are unlikely to be rebuilt. The US military has shown itself to be much weaker than supposed. As a result of the war the US lost its last chance to control a full 2\/3 of the world\u2019s oil reserves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">\u201cIn the next quarter, starting with the Cancer ingress the financial and security situation in the world is likely to be unclear and unstable, upended as a result of the current war. In looking at the astrology from now through the middle of the year it seems rather clear that this war will continue at the very least for some weeks and probably for months. Washington always seeks for a quick victory, whereas what we are looking at now is a slower war of attrition. In such a scenario, the Americans and Israelis will shortly have to reconsider their options.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Result<\/strong>: Now that the MoU has been signed its demise has also been seen on the horizon. This was Trump\u2019s last best hope to find a peaceful solution to the conflict. The Israelis and the Zionist oligarchs in the US want the war to continue. They just want to wait until the midterms are finished. But the Iranian negotiators have been warned that any real rapprochement with the Americans is off-limits. The Americans are seen as being devious and untrustworthy, so negotiations at some point will be killed altogether. Marco Rubio is also seeking to sow division in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">As to timing, mid-July will be quite telling. Transiting Jupiter will contact the Plu=Mar\/Sat midpoint in the ingress figure:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Jup\/Plu=Mar\/Sat: The complete concentration of energy upon a particular objective to the entire exclusion of other interests, the ability to render quick work (satisfactorily). &#8211; <strong>The ability to destroy or eliminate something thoroughly<\/strong>. &#8211; The stage of improvement during an illness, <strong>a fortunate separation<\/strong>, <strong>a quick dissolution<\/strong> (of the body)\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Jupiter\/Pluto combinations have the following attributes, positive and negative:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Jup\/Plu: \u201c+ The leading of or the participation in uprisings, the attainment of leadership.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">&#8211; Loss of social standing and of one&#8217;s wealth, con\ufb02icts with the authorities and the executors of governmental power (arrest). The misfortune to lose everything.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Given the preceding we <em>are<\/em> likely to see uprisings, violent suppression of the same, military actions leading to massive losses. The American strategic petroleum reserves will be at critical levels by that point, with rising prices for just about everything (inflation), financial instability, and so on. It all sounds like a lovely time \u2013 not. But Cancer is about security. And forewarned is forearmed, as the saying goes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Jupiter\/Pluto combinations point to the plutocracy, and it will be in the period just mentioned that they will be forced to make a move in order to shore up their control over society. Many of them are also facing monumental financial losses, shades of the suicides that were characteristic of the 1929 financial crash, beginning the Great Depression. What has just been described is what will probably signal a major black swan event. Do not expect a savior to step forward. We, as humanity, must work to save ourselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">We are entering into a period of what I would call \u2018positive disillusionment\u2019 \u2013 in other words, the disillusionment with the status quo that leads to greater awareness and thereby enhanced creative potential. Because the other side of the Sun-Neptune square mentioned above is the possibility of increased intuitive awareness, if rightly handled. This quarter will serve to break us out of our illusions. And that is always a blessing in disguise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Guard your finances, keep your fuel tanks full, turn off the lying television and cancel your subscriptions to legacy newspapers. They will not serve us for what is coming, unless you want to entertain yourself with the attempts to spin what we are witnessing as some sort of great victory and 5D chess moves. Or\u2026learn how to read between the lines and behind the headlines. It\u2019s a good exercise. Just remember \u2013 the oligarchs and vested interests control and own all of our legacy media in the West, including Western social media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Most especially, take care of your loved ones and your community. They are always the best line of defense in any time of stress. Rainbows, frolicking dolphins, alien encounters and unicorns can happen, but it is probably best not to pin one\u2019s hopes on them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px;\">Featured pic from <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/421368108863395796\/\">Pinterest<\/a> <\/span>(original by <span style=\"color: #993300;\"><a style=\"color: #993300;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kagayastudio.com\/english\/\">Kagaya<\/a><\/span>)<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Sun went into Cancer on the 21st of June, which is the solstice, and which started the summer quarter in the northern hemisphere.
