BLAIR: A dubious birthday gift. 6 May 2006 Predicition before the event
 1 May 2006
Published The Saturday Star on 6 May 2006Correct Prediction before the event
Tony Blair has his birthday today and as he turns 53, he is in deep trouble with his Opposition party. Even his own party members are demanding that he resign. Political analysts may say that they saw this coming in the political trends, but those of us who study different symbols are forcibly reminded of the symbolism of an unusual news story.
The journey of that whale, rising from the sea to swim up the Thames to the heart of London and the heart of British politics, was for me a potent omen.
The survival struggle of the whale was a warning of secret scandals and a looming survival struggle. That was my remark on 20 January 2006.

Mbeki and the ANC- metamorphosis or stalemate? Prediction of ANC crisis

Thabo Mbeki and the ANC have a strong bond All Pluto transits are associated with endings, with elimination, however the powerful union of Mbeki the leader and the ideal of the ANC will be difficult to destroy.

The ANC and Pluto – 2007 to 2009: Time for Transformation Prediction before the event
6 December 2007
The ANC Crisis: As transit Pluto opposes the ANC Pluto, there’s a fight for power and survival: the ANC leadership crisis is about restructuring and returning to the core meaning of why the ANC was created in 1912. The 2007/2008 opposition challenges the ANC to return to core issues, and to cleanse and purify its power base from the criminal element as it steers the ANC into the future. Because of Pluto’s eccentric orbit and slow motion, its transits take about a year to highlight the issues of the specific planet it interacts with: in this case transit Pluto oppose the ANC birth Pluto from 2006 to 2009.

Zuma's Inaugural speech: This is a moment of renewal.
9 May 2009 South African Astrologer Albertus LightStrider examines and interprets the moment at which the Fourth President of the Rainbow Nation born 1994 (as well as the Republic of South Africa born 1961) said: " This is a moment of renewal". Zuma has been a controversial figure for the last eight years. This caused a rift within the ANC and lead to the creation of a breakaway party that opposed Zuma in the recent election. It has been Zuma's dark time. On the day of his inauguration there was a very different pattern reflected in both his speech and the astrological moment at which it was given.
