With Tata abandoning its UK operations, the future
for British steelmaking is bleak. Tata Steel UK has operations in Port Talbot,
Trostre, Shotton, Llanwern and Newport in Wales and Rotherham and Corby in
England. Business Secretary Sajid Javid has said: "There are buyers out
there", but no realistic candidate has put themselves forward. It is
hardly surprising. Tata invested £3bn into its UK operations and is still
losing £1m a day as steel prices continue to fall. http://www.bbc.com/news/business-35933901
Tata Steel
took over the Corus Group in 2007 under a Saturn-Neptune opposition. As the
same planets now square each other, Tata Steel is abandoning its UK operations.
The following extract about the Saturn-Neptune cycle from Nick Fiorenza
explains what has happened:
The
Saturn-Neptune Square
Our
opportunity as we enter and move into the last quarter of this cycle is to
first recognize that the structures we have created in our lives and the limits
those structures impose are the solidification of ideologies we began to
formulate starting in 1989. It impels us to begin to consciously make changes
in our lives based upon realizations we have had about what did and did not
work in practicality throughout the previous manifestation quarter of the
cycle; i.e., from 2007 until now. The summation of these realizations may now
emerge throughout this geocentric square (2015-16) as impulses arising from
within self that tell us, we need to change.
The
transitional period into the last quarter of this cycle (November 2015 through
September 2016) may arouse any grief, sorrow, regrets and disillusionment about
unfulfilled ideals, impelling a need to relinquish any antiquated or illusory
beliefs, as well as any emotional charge we hold that sustains them. It impels
us to shed that which we now come to realize were mere ghosts of illusion, like
discarding a costume and role we were playing in a stage production, now to
reveal, mostly to ourselves, the raw truth and wisdom gained from our
experience. This Saturn-Neptune transition yields sobering realism. http://www.lunarplanner.com/Saturn-Neptune-Square/index.html
