OUR BANKING
SYSTEM
Hopefully
you've noticed the news that Citigroup is in the process of breaking
up in order to survive. Citigroup will have roughly a $10 billion
operating loss for the last quarter of 2008, and that's after taking
in $45 billion of US taxpayer money to help stop the bleeding. So
it's in the process of selling a majority share of its Smith Barney
investment division to Morgan Stanley. But what you may not have noticed (buried in
the Wall Street Journal about this on January 12th) is
this:
(quoted
from the WSJ)
"Behind
Citigroup's looming fourth-quarter loss are many of the same forces
that are clobbering banks nationwide... The deteriorating US economy
is translating into soaring defaults on tens of billions of dollars
of consumer and business loans, especially those tied to real
estate. For the first time since 1990, the entire US banking
industry is on track to book a quarterly net loss."
Basically
they are telling us that all the big
banks are in this predicament and the situation is worsening.
Astrologically, as bad as things were last year, the
banking industry had a fair amount of support (especially
considering that it got the entire country into this mess). Last
year both Jupiter and Saturn were in earth signs, supporting
(trine) the banking industry's sign (Taurus). So even though
it was a tough year, there was support to keep things
going. Now that Jupiter has moved out of Capricorn
and into Aquarius, banks have lost one of their major supports.
However, Saturn is still in Virgo and trine their industry sign
through most of October this year. So there is some support left
until then. But you will soon see that the industry begins having
further problems.
I'm
bringing this situation to your attention because we're headed into
some tough cycles for the USA chart involving the money and/or the
country's banking system (the USA Venus). The earliest that
cycle will be exact is in mid-February, depending on the time
when the country was actually started (lots of controversy about
this among astrologers). But in March we also get Venus retrograde,
so no matter when the country started, everyone will be rethinking
money then and the implications of all these challenges. And since
we're in rethinking mode now with Mercury retrograde, you may want
to reconsider banking with smaller community banks if you're now
banking with one of the large banks. Bank of America and JP Morgan
Chase cannot be far behind Citigroup in losses.
Are these
enormous banks too big to fail? Or could they be too big to save?
This may be the year we find out.
