The pandemic begins – January 2020

 In 2015 Maurice Fernandez wrote an extraordinary article on the astrology of 2020 that accurately predicted the world changing effects of the pandemic on all of our lives, 5 years in advance of Covid-19: The Saturn Pluto conjunction and the transits for the year 2020

In that article he said the following about the Saturn Pluto conjunction of 2020:

“On January 12, 2020, Saturn conjoins Pluto at 22° Capricorn for a single, and dramatic, pass. With the Sun, Ceres, and Mercury within a degree, and the respective South Nodes of Saturn and Pluto close to this degree, we can expect this cycle to have an exceptionally powerful effect, from the year leading up to the conjunction and approximately two years following it. As previously mentioned, this cycle is bound to stimulate significant geopolitical dynamics that will affect the distribution of power in many structures on a global scale. Angular aspects between Saturn and Pluto are also known to reflect pandemics and natural disasters, including seismic and volcanic activity.”

On this historic day, 12th January Saturn and Pluto are conjunct in Capricorn joined by their South Nodes, the Sun and Mercury, the genetic sequence of the new novel coronavirus which was to change the world was first revealed to the world, as reported by the WHO: “China shared the genetic sequence of the novel coronavirus on 12 January, which will be of great importance for other countries to use in developing specific diagnostic kits.” It also stated: “The (Chinese) government reports that there is no clear evidence that the virus passes easily from person to person. Currently, no case with infection of this novel coronavirus has been reported elsewhere other than Wuhan.”

Until 12th January the novel coronavirus (2019-nCov) was only observed in China and was not seen as a threat outside of China. At the great conjunction however, on 12th January 2020, the FIRST case of Covid-19 was diagnosed outside of China, on a patient who had travelled to Thailand, as reported by the WHO on 13th January. The pandemic begins.
