US Threatens Trade War Against China

President Donald Trump unveiled the measures yesterday, following a seven-month investigation by the administration, targeting China, under Section 301 of the 1974 US Trade Act. The administration has drawn up a list of more than 1,000 products that could be targeted. The details will be released within the next few days, after which businesses will have 30 days in which to respond before a final decision is made. The treasury has been ordered to draw up recommendations within 60 days to lay out specific restrictions on investments by Chinese companies, state-owned enterprises and sovereign wealth funds in the US.  Mar.23 https://www.globalresearch.ca/us-threatens-trade-war-against-china/5633210

The Sun entered Aries on March 21 and  quickly moves into a square with Mars-Saturn  in Capricorn.   Squares symbolize friction, so that that this interaction  generates anger and resentment. Mars and Saturn do not always get along, because Mars is hot and Saturn is cold (in a psychological sense). Both Saturn and Mars correlate with stress. In its pure form, Mars introduces conflict in our lives. This might sound “bad” at first, but conflict and stress are natural. Stress arises when we assert (Mars) our will in the world but meet challenges that prevent us  (Saturn) from freely accomplishing what we want. Conflict and irritation arises naturally as we approach working out our differences.

A chart for the exact Sun-Mars aspect at Washington, DC has it straddling the horizon forming a T-square along with the First Quarter Moon and Saturn.  Now if we relocate the chart to Beijing,  the same T-square  aligns with the meridian. In other words the conflict generated by the square is active in both the capitals.

But why should this mean a trade war? The star conjoining the Moon ( close to its First Quarter) is eta (η) Gemini, Propus in the foot of the western twin Castor.  About sidereal Gemini and the Twins, Nick Fiorenza writes:

Sidereal Gemini is of high intensity intellectual communication, information, commerce, goods and services, and of their exchange.

So the anger and frustration is about trade and commerce. Remember that the Twins are often at loggerheads. While they are depicted hugging each other, notice the bow and arrow in Castor's left hand and the club in Pollux's right hand.
