There
are parts of Silicon Valley where commercial real estate is still hanging on,
and there are parts where it has let go. In Santa Clara, it has let go. Overall
availability of office space in Santa Clara was nearly 19% in the first
quarter, according to Savills Studley, up from 14% a year ago. Only two other
areas in Silicon Valley – Milpitas and North San Jose – show greater
availability at respectively 23% and a harrowing 30%. July 2 http://wolfstreet.com/2017/07/02/silicon-valley-commercial-real-estate-bubble/
The following extract from Tony Howard [1] explains the
Saturn-Neptune dynamics:
The Saturn-Neptune
cycle is fairly common - we experience a major aspect between the two planets
(Conjunction, Square or Opposition) every 9 years. But that frequency doesn’t
diminish its important role. Metaphorically, interactions between Saturn and
Neptune can express on the high end as “sobering up.”
Saturn brings the
energies of discipline and judgment to balance Neptune’s imaginary and escapist
leanings. The square suggests the dance isn’t a comfortable one. We may find
ourselves in tense moments in which our escapism is brought to our awareness in
the harsh light of day. If so, our challenge is to accept this new insight, and
take responsibility for the actions that brought us to this place, and start
taking steps to change our behavior.
Essentially when Saturn acts on Neptune unrealistic ideas
and expectations get a reality check so that quite a few bubbles burst. A chart
for the last Saturn-Neptune square drawn for Santa Clara has Saturn on the IC (4th cusp) square Neptune on
the descendant (7th cusp).
In Mundane or National Astrology, H.S. Green writing about
Saturn in the 4th states:
Buliding, farming and mining do not prosper. House and land
property do not sell well.
If we now progress the chart (by the PSSR method) to July 2,
the date of the news, we find that the Saturn-Neptune square comes back to its
own place thereby triggering the original meaning.
