Answering Readers’ Questions…

The first question comes from Octavia:

Denise, thank you so much for answering my questions. I’m going to be purchasing a 15-20 minute session in the next 2 or 3 weeks, but I was wondering if you could just answer yes or no on this question: Within 25 years will the technology/medical advancements exist that will enable perfect to near-perfect facial skin regeneration?

Thanks so much,

Octavia

The Tarot’s answer:

Yes.

In the next 25 years this technology will exist and be widely available. It won’t just be in the research phase. It looks like it will give many people self esteem, allow them to get out and be more comfortable dating. However, some may find that so many years of holing up and living a hermetic life will be a hard cycle to break even if they appear different on the outside, they might actually be confused about how to deal with the change. For those, psychological therapy will also be needed. Hope that helps.

Ceramic fuel cells CFU company in Australia, will they be a good investment in the future. They have just invented something that cheaper and carbon emission free electricity.
Thanks for the tip re Minara and Oz minerals can you see them going bust as Ive lost so much money already with them and other shares that I’d only sell now if they have the potential to go bust.

I’ll ask the tarot if Minara will go bust first:

Gee. It looked pretty great when you invested, huh? Actually the company looks like it was doing well and its fortune was about to change for the better. I asked if it would go out of business in the next 5 years, the answer. Yes. But you may find it will go up before it burns out. So I’ll ask if it will go out of business in the next year. 

No. It’s not going to go out of business within the next year. I would wait awhile to sell this and when you get back to where you started, maybe a little over, sell it then. It will go under but will have a period where it does better before it implodes.

And now Oz Minerals: Will it go bust in the next 2 years?

It looks like Oz will be acquired by another company. This will stabilize them and make them more financially stable, but they will no longer be Oz Minerals. I’m not sure what that means for your stock in Oz. Hope that helps.

Your comment on the Toronto Stock Exchange TSX would be great for all us Canadians.http://www.tsx.com. Thanks much!

Hi Steve,

I couldn’t find a start date for the TSX after doing a google search and because my astrological database is made by a US company it is not listed. But I do have the chart of Canada itself and can read the market a bit through that. Although it won’t be quite as precise. If you can find the start date of TSX please post it and I’ll run a chart. 

Saturn is going through Canada’s 12th house of loss squaring Venus in the 9th (foreign matters) which rules the 8th of investing. In layman’s terms, your stock market is going to be tangled up in our mess. We are going to cause you guys some serious trouble. I’m not going to go into all the astrology but your stock market is also going to have major losses. But it seems it will be a little while before your domestic issues get addressed in a real, transformative way, not until January 2011. It may also be when there is serious anger, job loss and civil unrest. This maybe when you guys really feel the economic depression or recession depending on how your government plays this.

Being an American I am woefully ignorant of the workings of your government other than the parliamentary system you employ and I think you have elections every 5 years? Sad. I know. Our educational system is US-focused. I did a quick peek on Wikipedia trying to find that out, but I couldn’t tell when your next election will be. It could be that this aspect will mean a complete shift in the power structure, so the conservatives will be out and a liberal government will take its place. That would be perhaps the best potential outcome of the aspect. It could also be a lot darker. But lets cross that bridge when its closer.

I just tried to get more info and it looks like your Prime Minister was elected in 2006 so if there is another election in 5 years it would make sense with what I’m seeing. There will be a change from conservative to liberal. This is also when your domestic issues will really be tackled.

Hi,
I was wondering if you had any insight into the Student Loan Corporations in the midst of this economic crisis and how they could be potentially effected, specifically Sally Mae. Myself, like so many others in my age group (under 30) find ourselves anchored down by huge college debt with no realistic way to pay it off or much hope to be able to aquire property due to this outstanding debt. Is there relief in sight? Either with lower interest rates or in some other manner?

Thanks so much

Sadly this problem goes back to the Reagan administration who changed a bunch of laws regarding student loans, and it wasn’t to the student’s advantage. I know this because I was in college during Reagan’s second term. Clinton tried to rectify this a bit, and actually it wasn’t until he passed some legislation that I was able to repay my student loans back after 10 years of feeling like I was carrying around an anvil on my shoulders.

Anyway back to you. And the sad fact that Republicans don’t like people being educated. Especially college, that should be reserved for their wealthy family members who if they had to really compete probably couldn’t actually get into college. (Of course this isn’t true of all wealthy people, there are great, brilliant people in all economic classes. But certainly if George W. Bush wasn’t a legacy would he have had any chance to go to Harvard or Yale? NO.) 

OK, here goes. Let’s ask: Will there be any legislation in the next four years that will ease the burden of people with student loans who currently have them?

The tarot’s answer:

Yes.

There will be legislation put forward that will pass, helping those saddled with student loan debt. It will have a charitable aspect, and a contribution aspect. And there will be some people violently opposed to helping out the non-wealthy college educated (fancy that). It looks like some sort of community service, or using your education to advance areas the nation will be interested in expanding, teaching and or serving in the military will be options to getting debt erased. It seems there will be some kind of program put in place to try to utilize people’s specialties to enhance the country’s standing in the world, to move the nation forward, and actually it looks like this program will be good for the country, and the individuals involved in it.

One caveat, it won’t be easy. Going into this program will take up time, make some people feel as if they’re stuck for awhile and be very competitive. But it will solve a lot of people’s student loan debt problems.

Best wishes to all and good luck!
