15 March 2008: Spring Seminar - Facing the Financial Winter
Exeter Astrology Group is pleased to welcome Maggie Hyde and Jack Kenny to the city. Maggie and Jack will be speaking on Saturday 15 March 2008 about the fundamental shifts occurring in the world financial markets. Although the weather might be warming, the entry of Pluto into Capricorn, the sign of the northern winter solstice, may send a chill through global economic systems, impacting on the local stock and housing markets.Credit, interest rates, inflation, pensions, property, the stock market … what was once safe is no longer so and changes in the financial climate suggest that Western economies are moving into a financial winter.In this unique seminar we combine astrology and economic theory in order to arrive at positive strategies, especially in relation to the housing and stock markets. Maggie will outline astrological approaches, ranging from planetary cycles, especially those of Jupiter and Saturn, to planetary ingresses, including Pluto into Capricorn. She will consider the horoscopes of companies, financial institutions and key market players.
