C/2020 F8 SWAN was discovered on March 25, 2020, by the Solar Heliospheric Observer (SOHO) spacecraft. Although it is faint, it still visible by the naked eye from early May. This means it could have astrological significance and if this comet lasts long enough, by the end of May it could be significantly brighter.

The Pleiades are usually related to crying and sadness, and Robson tells us that Alcyone is linked to love, eminence and blindness (from fevers, small pox, and accidents to the face).

This suggests we may have 2 visible comets in the sky around Perseus and Taurus at the end of May. I made a forecast regarding Comet Atlas  at the endof March, please read it if you are interested.

Now when I say “visible to the naked eye” they are only going to light dots in the sky because they are not great comets so please don’t expect to see a bright comet with a tail. However as we can see them then they still have some impact on us.

Usually comets are seen as bad omens, linked to disease, disaster and death of famous people, especially the leader of a country but we can learn more of its impact from its trajectory through the Heavens.

Comet Swan has an interesting route across the sky. It moves from Cetus Pisces cross celestial equator and moves towards Perseus, it can be seen by the naked eye from south hemisphere when comet was in Cetus constellation whale or sea monster, According to Ptolemy this constellation is like Saturn. It is said to cause laziness and idleness, but to confer an emotional and charitable nature, with the ability to command, especially in war. Makes one amiable, prudent, happy by sea and land, and helps to recover lost goods. This constellation is related to whale, marine life, seafare, those fear or feeling deep inside of us.

After Comet Swan cross celestial equator it moved into Pisces it represents water, ocean, fish, duality, link between tow things, feeling and relocation. Both Cetus and Pisces repeat similar themes, water, ocean, marine life and feeling. This suggest certain change in our relation with the ocean and water resource.

After Pisces Comet Swan moved  move into Triangulum. This constellation has not been of interest to astrologers but it has very interesting history, first it was called the Plough in Babylonian star catalogues marking the time to begin spring ploughing in Mesopotamia.  It was also called Sicilia, because the Romans believed Ceres, patron goddess of Sicily, begged Jupiter to place the island in the heavens. This suggests the comet may affect agriculture, agricultural tools and Scilly.

Between 19th – 29th May,  Comet Swan will be in Perseus, this constellation is related to male sexual energy,  the military, attacking and hunting. According to Ptolemy, Perseus is like Jupiter and Saturn, t is said to give an intelligent, strong, bold and adventurous nature, but a tendency to lying. On the other hand it may suggest people who are going on an adventure to save others and earn glory.  It may also suggest we need to use reflection to deal with our problem, like Perseus slaying Medusa by looking into the mirror to avoid her gaze. On 20th of May  Comet SWAN will exactly conjunct Algol, and we all know of this star’s infamy, it is Medusa’s head and Perseus’s trophy. It petrifies those who look directly upon its eyes.  Robson tells us that it causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging and has a violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens. However Dr Brady relates this fixed star with Lilith, Adam’s rebellious wife, an independent female who is not afraid to express her female sexual energy.   I hope this comet’s creative and communication quality can express Algol’s female kundalini energy like Dr. Brady mentions in her book. Its Chinese name as 大陵五 (The Fifth – , star of Great – Mausoleum – 陵)In this case we may see a more devastating  development of this Pandemic and the economic situation.

From 30th of May to Mid June Comet C/2020 F8 SWAN will move into Auriga, this constellation has be seen as a scimitar or a crook, so it related to a tool for catching or management. In Greek mythology, Auriga is related to the ancient King of Athens, Erichthonius, whose father was Hephaestus, the god of craft, blacksmiths, fire and volcanoes. Like his father,  Erichthonius’s legs were out of shape, but his wisdom and crafty hands made the World’s first Chariot, and he taught his people how to use the plough (we see this link again), as both Triangulum and Auriga are related to agriculture and tools or techniques of agriculture, I can surely forecast that some important impact to agriculture may happen soon, as Auriga is also related to the chariot, and people with disabilities, we may notice some important things happening related to the car, car industry and disability rights between now and next year.

While Comet Swan in Auriga, it will conjucnt fixed star Capella on the 2nd June, Robson tells us  it is of the nature of Mars and Mercury; and, to Alvidas, of Mercury and the Moon. It gives honor, wealth, eminence, renown, a public position of trust and eminent friends, and makes its natives careful, timorous, inquisitive, very fond of knowledge and particularly of novelties. In Greek mythology, the star represented the goat Amalthea that suckled Zeus. It may offer protection for people in need, this star also said is a  small she goat befeat Titan, so maybe something small suprisingly help  people to defeat great power.Screenshot 2020-05-16 at 20.19.39

Comet Swan moves between 5 Taurus to 29 Gemini on tropical zodiac between now and mid June, Taurus is related to earth, land, food, agriculture, money resource and financial markets. No need to predict an economic crisis as the global economy is going down at the moment, All I can say is as both comet Atlas and Swan are passing Taurus, I will not expect a stable world economy before Summer 2021.

Comet Swan will align with Uranus on 7 Taurus on 15th May, this suggests a shocking separation, independence or a rebel force taking action. Also we can expect new innovation in technology, or some people or something has been released, this may also mean relief from stigma, or decriminalisation .   

As Comet Swan moves into Gemini after 22 May, if we can still see it with the naked eye, we should expect some shocking news regarding children, primary education, transport or communications.   On 23rd of May, Comet Swan will align with the New Moon on 2 Gemini this degree also aligns with the fixed star Mirfak which repeats the Perseus theme of male sexual energy,  fighting and challenges, as the comet has a strong impact on the New Moon chart and we are one step away from Solstice Eclipse, we can foresee that this June will not be a peaceful month.     

At this moment, we don’t need a comet to tell us this is a troubling time. There is a hope that these troubles will pass soon but the presence of two visible comets in the sky lead me to think that these hopes are not well founded.
