sizes=\"(max-width: 472px) 100vw, 472px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In brief, the pros and cons for this event are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(+) Gemini is rising, and Mercury is in its own sign, therefore <em>swa rashi<\/em> and with <em>digbala<\/em>, which implies some relatively flexible proposals coming from the American side of the table.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(+)\u00c2\u00a0Mercury and the <em>lagna<\/em> are hemmed by benefics (<em>Shubhakartari<\/em> yoga) Venus and the Moon, which implies smooth talk from America, and yet that Moon is so dark that it is technically a malefic, so this may take the form of inducements with vague promises.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) Tuesday is a day for going to war, not negotiating an end to hostilities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) The Moon is in <em>Krittika<\/em>, a <em>nakshatra<\/em> that carries a lot of baggage in the form of heat, tension, phobias, schizophrenia, wounded pride, complex subjective motives, nervous breakdowns, temper tantrums and feuding, none of which are conducive to rational discussion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) The Moon is dark and only two <em>tithis<\/em> away from a New Moon, which is not productive for fostering rapport and cooperative dialogue for long-term agreements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) Both luminaries, Sun and Moon, occupy the 12th house in a fixed sign, which suggests intransigent positions, threatening to end things before they even get started.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) Mercury and the <em>lagna<\/em> are hemmed by malefics (<em>Papakartari<\/em> yoga) Rahu and the Sun, which implies tough talk from America, and maybe too much of that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) The 7th house is occupied by a double-strength Saturn (retrograde and <em>digbala<\/em>) which makes for a tough-minded North Korea not easily swayed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) The 7th lord is a double-strength Jupiter (retrograde and <em>swa nakshatra<\/em>) which suggests North Korea knows it holds a strong hand and is capable of playing the long game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) The 7th lord Jupiter aspects both the <em>lagna<\/em> and <em>lagnesh<\/em> Mercury, while Mercury only aspects the 7th house and its occupant Saturn, so the North Koreans may be better able to negotiate favorable terms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) The <em>Parivartana<\/em> yoga between 2nd lord Moon and 12th lord Venus suggests the USA will offer financial inducements in order to buy the North Korean&#8217;s compliance, yet the influence of malefics on both those houses implies that such offers may be misrepresented (to either the North Koreans or the public) and\/or costly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) Since both the luminaries are in the 12th, the houses they rule suggest that what is said (2nd) and what is signed (3rd) will likely be insufficient and\/or detrimental to the position and the reputation of the USA.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(-) In short, this was a poor choice for scheduling a summit that must bear the burden of establishing a whole new era in Asian geo-politics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In somewhat different language, this same argument is presented
