This is a good period for discussing mergers and acquisitions. If you find the markets rallying around this period, you should step in to load off stocks that have recently experienced a free-fall during the market. Resist the temptation to indulge in aggressive speculation with heavy investments; you certainly cannot afford to risk your hard-earned money due to wishful speculation. You can achieve major breakthroughs in business matters like getting clearance for pending projects, or acquiring business with good potential for the future on distress sales(you may also acquire real-estate properties at reduced prices on distress disposal of assets if you have the resources to do so), if you are alert towards such opportunities. If your accounts are in order there is nothing to fear; but if you have been playing around with ethics and code of fair practice, you may have to face the music during this period.

Patience and perseverance will win the day for you business activities during this period. Discussing current business strategies with older or more experienced persons will prove beneficial to you. In some cases, it might be beneficial to revert back to strategies that you have abandoned for quite some time now, as they may prove workable again under the current changed circumstances. This can be a very good period for activities that require cooperation from different persons – like forming new associations, joint-ventures, synergistic activities to create a win-win atmosphere in business, etc.
Uranus turns direct on November 27, 2008 in the 25th degree of Aquarius.
This degree is symbolized as “A dark face wearing an expression of fierce anger, and across the forehead – a red band of blood.”
This is a highly inauspicious degree indicating strife, increased tendencies towards cultural exclusivism and chauvinism. Separatist elements, terrorist forces, and disruptive elements of the society may be on the prowl during this period. There could unnecessary controversies involving supremacy of races or languages, internal strife among different communities of the same faith/ nationality, and also major accidents. Political, religious, and community leaders should exercise restraint in their public speeches and avoid providing fodder for communal wrath. Those in uniformed services and Intelligence services around the globe should be more aggressive and alert in data collection/ information gathering regarding terrorists/ separatist activities so that any attempt to disrupt public peace and security may be nipped at the right time thus saving valuable lives.
A child born during this period may show abnormal levels of aggression; parents have a great responsibility to groom these children carefully – instilling in them the qualities of tolerance, forbearance, tendency to forgive the fault of others, etc. right from childhood. Avoid extreme punishments to such children as they may take any physical hurt inflicted on them as legitimate excuses for being violent themselves in later lives. Handle these children with firm patience and abundant love, and see to it that they are along the right track; much care is needed especially during their teen years so that their aggressive instincts are channelized along constructive channels – else they may lose their way and find themselves in the ranks of disruptive agencies!
