THE ASTROLOGY OF THE WAR AGAINST TERRORISM

 

[Although the Magi Society would have preferred to devote our entire website to matters related only to love and money, the tragic events of Sept. 11 have made it necessary to provide additional material.  Right now, every astrologer is being asked by their clients and friends what they think about the War Against Terrorism.  We will use this section of our website to help you to have the information you need to understand the astrology of the new war.  In the process, we will explain how to apply the principles of Magi Astrology to help us understand the astrological backdrop of the war, and predict the most likely outcome of each crucial campaign.]

In order to understand the astrology of the new war, we must first have the necessary birth data and the data must be accurate.  For example, when was Usama Bin Laden born? 

 

Since astrology is based on the analysis of astrological charts based on dates, the first and most fundamental step in astrology is to obtain the correct dates for the charts.  Obviously, if we use the wrong dates, we would be analyzing the wrong charts.

 

 

BIRTH DATA FOR THE TERRORISTS

 

Usama Bin Laden's Correct Birth Date is March 10, 1957

 

When this maniac first applied for a passport in his home country of Saudi Arabia, he gave his birth date as March 10, 1957.  The Saudis are very strict about checking birth certificates before issuing passports; therefore this date must be the correct date of birth for Bin Laden the maniac.  At the time, he was only 21 and was not a terrorist so he had no reason to hide his true birth date.  Once he embarked on leading a life of terrorism, he tried numerous times to change his birth date and never used the March 10 date again.  This is why there have been several other birth dates given for him on various astrology sites.  But there is no question that Bin Laden the maniac was born on March 10, 1957.

 

Bin Laden's two closest lieutenants are Ayman Al-Zawahiri and Muhammad Atef. 

 

Ayman Al-Zawahiri was born on June 19, 1951, and was the leader of the militant terrorist group that assassinated Anwar Sadat.

 

Muhammad Atef's birth data is not available.

 

According to most intelligence sources, Al-Zawahiri is Bin Laden's second in command since he sits to the right of Bin Laden in most of the tapes that Al Quaeda has given to Al-Jazeera, the Arab cable network.

 

Atef is the one that does the detailed planning and organization of the terrorist attacks. 

 

 

BIRTH DATA FOR THE TERRORIST GOVERNMENTS

 

Taliban dictatorship:

 

The correct birth date for the Taliban regime in Afghanistan is September 27, 1996. This is not the birth chart of Afghanistan itself and it is not the chart for the Taliban either. But this is the date to use for the Taliban regime.

 

Here is why: When the Soviets left Afghanistan, it installed a Communist puppet government that was overthrown by a coalition of Islamic armies in April of 1992.  The coalition broke up and the Taliban gained control of Kabul on September 27, 1996 and killed the Afghanistan president. At that time, the Taliban declared itself the government of the whole of Afghanistan and asked the world for recognition. Thus the Taliban declared itself ruler of Afghanistan on Sept. 27. 

 

Only three nations ever recognized the Taliban as the legitimate government of Afghanistan.  Two of them have withdrawn recognition since the September 11 attacks and Pakistan is the only country that still recognizes the Taliban as representing Afghanistan.

 

Iraq:

 

The operative chart for Iraq is that of July 14, 1958 when a military coup resulted in the birth of the present day Iraq.  Saddam Hussein himself assumed the presidency on July 16, 1979.

Pakistan

 

This country was born August 14 of 1947. But in the War Against Terrorism, the most operative chart to analyze for Pakistan is that of June 20, 2000, the day Gen. Pervez Musharraf appointed himself as president. Musharraf had led a military coup that began on October 12, 1999, and resulted in the overthrow of the previous government. The June 20 date represents the Musharraf presidency, and is the government now dealing with the U.S.

 

Pervez Musharraf himself was born on Aug 11, 1943. His ties to the U.S. are in part due to the fact he has a son and brother who live in the U.S.

 

Musharraf has agreed to allow the U.S. to fly over Pakistani air space and to use at least one air base. But with the exception of Afghanistan, there are more Al Quaeda and Taliban supporters in Pakistan than in any other country. Pakistan has not agreed to allow the U.S. to launch massive attacks using ground forces from its soil. Therefore, the U.S. has had to reach agreements for such activities with two other countries, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.

 

Uzbekistan

 

Uzbekistan is a former Soviet republic and was founded on August 31, 1991, when it declared its independence from the USSR.  It borders a small part of northern Afghanistan and is a nation that is 90% Muslim.  But the country has been at odds with the Taliban and Al Quaeda trained terrorists so it is happy for the opportunity to help the U.S. overthrow the Taliban dictatorship.

 

Tajikistan

 

Tajikistan is another former Soviet republic.  It was founded on September 9, 1991.  Like Uzbekistan, Tajikistan shares a border with Afghanistan in the north, and is also 90% Muslim but has had its quarrels with the Taliban and Al Quaeda trained terrorists. 

 

Both Uzbekistan and Tajikistan have agreed to allow the U.S. to use air bases for attacks on the Taliban and Al Quaeda.

 

 

OTHER CRUCIAL DATA

 

Russia

 

Obviously, the Russians are important in this and Russia was founded on December 8, 1991.  But another key operative chart is that of June 17, 2001 because that is the day that President Bush met President Putin.  The chart of June 17 is therefore the chart of the relationship between Bush and Putin.

 

The role that Putin is playing in this U.S. led war cannot be overestimated.  On October 21, Putin flew to Tajikistan and met with its leaders along with leaders of the Northern Alliance.  A few days later, Putin announced Russia would provide significant military aid to the Northern Alliance, including 40 tanks and 80 armored personnel carriers.  We also believe Putin has helped to lead the way for Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld's meeting with the Tajikistan leaders on Nov. 2 that led to the agreement allowing the U.S. to use Tajikistan air bases as launching sites for military action inside Afghanistan.

 

Putin himself was born on October 7, 1952, and first became President of Russia on March 26, 2000, when Yeltsin resigned for health reasons.

 

USA

 

The natal chart of the U.S. is that of July 4, 1776.  But there are two additional crucial operative charts in this war.  George W. Bush's inaugural chart of January 20, 2001 defines his administration.  While the charts of September 13 and 14 are the charts for the days the Senate and House passed their resolutions authorizing the President to essentially go to war against the terrorists.

 

The above dates are the ones to use for the crucial charts concerning the new war.  During the upcoming weeks, we will provide an analysis of the astrology of the War on Terrorism, based on these charts and the principles of Magi Astrology.
