Glad you like it. You are right about the chart (I get 13 Sag, but close enough). If anything, this chart is worse for Iran than the one I posted. Note the setting Sun, which can show the end of a king.

Not sure why you say that the last chart is more important? The old Arab astrologers only ever used the degree of the mean conjunction, and did not have sufficient precision to cast a chart for the exact moment of the conjunction. They could only look at the degree of the conjunction, not the Ascendant or anything like that. So choosing which conjunction we want to examine is a bit of a modern luxury But it appears that it is the first conjunction that is typically used.

I like traditional Mundane astrology & your Blog very much.

My software showes the ascendant degree of Great conj in tehran:

14 Sagittarius
Again mars is on Descendant (like 1961 Conj)

also based on time in this site (http://www.astropro.com/features/tables/geo/ju-sa/ju000sa.html):

12 Sagittarius (Exactly on Pluto!)

Another Question:
1981 Conj is a triple Conjs and Last is at 24 July (seems to be more important).
why you elect the first conj (1 jan 1981) as main chart not last?

Thank you

Thank you for your encouragement. I have already worked out the specific years when I believe Iran is most at risk of war, but still need to write the post. And yes, one of those years does “hawktail” with the next presidency.

Thank you for the huge amount of work concerning Iran and its future. I am looking forward to the next installment. Especially since your deliniation of McCain’s probability to be crowned as our president, hawktails with Iran’s future. This is pretty spooky stuff. Please continue.

I disagree about the orb, at least relative to the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction. Lilly uses a 5 degree orb for the major stars. Now, if you are trying to pinpoint the location, as you did NYC, then yes, you want a very small orb, since a small change in the location may put Algol right on the MC.

Best wishes,

I really like your blog. But a 3 degree orb for a fixed star conjunction is a bit wide- even for Algol. The Grand Conjunction of 2000 cast for New York City has the MC at 26 Taurus conjunct Algol- which does reflect the 9/11 attack, and possibly current economic events there.

Keep up the good work,
David
