REVISED CHART!
I have had to adjust the chart for the Facebook IPO. I thought it was launching at 9:30am but then I was up early and heard it was going to launch at 11am, then there was a delay with something and it launched at
11:31am EDT.
There are some things in this chart that have not changed at
all with last night's posting. The Moon is still in Taurus but
now it is in the 9th house instead of the 10th. As I indicated in the earlier chart the
Moon is in balsamic phase not an ideal phase for a new IPO. Balsamic is when we release and my question
was if banks would be releasing the shares more than others buying. And also more to the point will buyers will
see this share as something you hold for a short time because the goal is to
release? Not a buy and hold ‘em
placement. Also, read comments section, Jonathon had an interesting take on the eclipse.
Sun conjunct Jupiter is responsible for the very nice $38
IPO. I will say this chart is much
more sensible for a business given the Sun & Jupiter are in the 10th. God knows I would want Sun/Jupiter in 10th for a business chart, either the business itself or the IPO chart. And Mercury in Taurus in the 10th
house makes sense for Facebook in that Mercury likes to connect people
together. Mercury rules connections and
that certainly speaks of Facebook.
The one beef about it is that Mercury can tell a lie or two and always
get busted, and Mercury is very fickle.
The word for Mercurial is rooted in this little planet. Fickleness not good for a public hold
company. Pandering will be noted.
Instead of a Cancer Ascendant as in the earlier chart we now
see it has Leo Rising. Strong, loud,
and bold, we like that. However, the
downside is egotistical actions based on insecurity. Mars is the 2nd house so it is fiery
and robust and this is a very HARD working placement for Mars but at the core,
Mars in Virgo is very insecure. FB employees will be working hard to make sure their stock and the company
is good all the time.
In the old chart, Uranus was in the 10th. Now it is in the 9th. Uranus is new technology and the 9th
house is the house of ideas and travel and it is interesting that one of the
factors that experts are saying is critical to Facebook’s future is mobile technology. No, shit with Uranus in the 9th. As we all know Uranus is in a building
square with Pluto and in this chart Pluto is in the 5th house of
creativity.
This is a tough aspect,
probably internally for FB more than what we the public will see. Will the technology be there for FB to be
forward thinking? Sure, they will have
great ideas but will the product be there? Will
they get the technology to match the ideas? If you are a computer tech geek and you are
highly creative get your butt to Menlo Park because FB will need you—big time.
Aquarius is on the 7th house cusp which speaks to
partnerships. Aquarius like his ruling
planet Uranus, is all about new technology and innovation and things that are
unusual. It can also shine bright and
then fade. With Neptune in the 7th,
there will undoubtedly be partnerships formed and strengthen the new technology
at FB however, Neptune is a deceiver.
The partnerships will not be all that they appear. Note to FB executives---VET every company you
consider purchasing-spend the money the time on a proper vet. All is not as it seems... and NEVER drink anyone's kool aid.
Finally, Venus in the 11th house is a chart where
friends LOVE you. In fact they adore
you. That feels right for how FB works,
right? But, Venus is retrograde so will
your friends be there for you when you really need it? And how will money work with those friends
because Venus is a money planet. I’m
not sure how you keep your friends but also make money off of them. There probably is a way to do it but it is
beyond my scope.
One note is that the North Node in Sag in the 4th
house. FB’s home is the world, not the
USA. They must keep their vision on the world market and answer to it. Probably wouldn't hurt if they bought a news agency that is appealing to the world and not just the USA.
I indicated a couple weeks ago that I thought there was
probably going to be some bumps with FB during this cycle. The
solar eclipse in Gemini on Sunday, the lunar eclipse, the Venus occultation,
Jupiter transition out of Taurus into Gemini, Venus turns direct and then a 2nd
Gemini new moon—that is a whole lot of Gemini energy for a company that speaks
to Gemini energy. Lots of changes and
action will happen between now and the end of June and I would say even the end
of July we’ll learn more.
Of course, I hope that they do well because the US needs the
taxes and I’m in California so I need a little of that tax dough as well. As a
parent with a child in a public school….. Make it work, Zuckerberg!
That Moon in Taurus also has, as her last aspect -- important when looking at Electional Astrology -- a conjunction with the Sun which, in this case, is a Solar Eclipse!
ReplyDeleteNot good.
I suspect those who invest might feel "burned" at some point with this investment. Especially in light of quirky, completely unpredictable, gonna-do-his-own-thing Uranus high in the sky on the MC.
Interesting that Cancer is Rising when there are so many questions about "security issues" and "privacy". Perhaps over-controlling Pluto will challenge -- via their Square -- that very public Uranus one too many times?
Jonathan, Great point about the solar eclipse.
ReplyDeleteI am standing by ready to change this post since the IPO didn't lauch at 8:30am EDT. It is being held right now...standing by...
Okay.. I have updated the new chart.
ReplyDeleteSorry, but I believe Jonathan is mistaken.
ReplyDeleteIf you do the calculations, he final aspect the moon makes is actually a conjunction to Jupiter.
I can see where if you're reading an ephemeris it appears as if the Taurus moon will conjoin the Sun at the final stages of Taurus.
But it is not so, which is why it's important to do the calculations.
By the time the moon in this chart reaches the final degrees of Taurus, the Sun has already moved into Gemini.
Of course, if you use Chiron, then the final aspect the moon makes would be a sextile to Chiron in Pisces.
