In the run-up to Moldova's snap legislative elections, I thought it would be opportune to make an astrological analysis of the political situation in your country. I became interested in this subject due to the similarities between the political events in the Republic of Moldova and the Kyrgyz Republic. It happened that in 2009 I was visiting Moldova and then I returned to Kyrgyzstan in 2010, and so I became witness to the events that occurred in both countries. Here are the key events that I took into consideration: on the one hand, the day of 5 April 2009, when Moldova held legislative elections; April 7, when the protest rallies in Chisinau degenerated into vandalism; the repeat poll in July, which led to a change of government and the installation of an interim president; and, on the other hand, 7 April 2010, with protest rallies which degenerated into violence and led to a change in government in Bishkek, where an interim president was also installed. Then again: both Moldova and Kyrgyzstan came to confront a parliamentary crisis, and Kyrgyzstan held a constitutional referendum on 27 June 2010 to became a parliamentary republic (only time will show how viable this change is); on September 5 Moldova also made an attempt to hold a referendum which failed to bring about a constitutional amendment. In the Kyrgyz elections in October 10, the number of participating parties was 29, which made the ballot paper unprecedentedly long: 70cm. In the upcoming Moldovan elections, there are 20 parties and about 10 independent candidates running for Parliament, making the ballot even longer: 80 centimeters. Kyrgyzstan is now going through a protracted post-election period with difficulties in electing a prime minister, as Moldova is about to hold a new round of elections, as a result of difficulties with electing the president. I decided to confront the astro-charts of both countries to understand what generates these processes and anticipate when they will end. Moldova obtained its independence on 27 August 1991 and Kyrgyzstan on 31 August 1991. The difference is not big: only four days. The transitory aspects which are responsible for these processes in the political life are quite the same and are related in particular to Uranus transits to Mars as well as Neptune transits to Jupiter and a transiting Pluto-Sun trine. Given that Moldova proclaimed its independence a few days earlier, the crisis erupted one year earlier. What should we expect from the forthcoming elections in Moldova and how will things develop in Kyrgyzstan? Considering that the given planetary situation occurred earlier in Moldova, the outcome should therefore reveal itself earlier, as well. But if we compare the date of the first round of parliamentary elections in Moldova – 5 April 2009 – with the date of the snap elections – November 28 – we will observe the same oppositions of Uranus to Mars and of Neptune to Jupiter, in addition to a very important aspect – transiting Pluto-Sun trine on Moldova's astro-map. I can anticipate that the elections will not be very easy and the post-election period can be quite difficult, too. There will be a new wave of emphatic statements, of discontented attitudes toward the outcome of the elections, of attempts to challenge them. The results will shock many, but the aforementioned aspects will be in place for a third time, in addition to a transiting Pluto-Sun trine, which didn't exist in the previous elections. In other words, even if protest rallies occur, things will evolve slowly and in late 2010 or early 2011, a president will be eventually elected in Moldova and there will be transformations that will pull the country out of the political deadlock. In my opinion, this is not going to be a categorical victory for the Communists; there will not be a total return to the past, but the ruling Alliance will not be able to retain its power, either. This is already a past stage, an intermediary one. New people will come to power. In my opinion, the most likely person to become president is Marian Lupu or someone else from his party, but only in alliance with someone who has been in power, most likely with the Communists. As for Kyrgyzstan, aspects similar to Moldova's appeared one year later, so we can guess that the elections that took place in Kyrgyzstan will not solve the problems they were expected to. This is only an intermediary stage between the past and future events. In March-April 2011, I believe there will be a new round of discussions which will lead to transformations in the spring of 2011, and these transformations may help us overcome the political deadlock. There is a possibility that repeat parliamentary elections will take place in 2011. We can expect the process of transformations to end completely in Kyrgyzstan no earlier than in late 2011 or in the first quarter of 2012, followed by a dynamic progress forward.

He is a contributor to major Kyrgyz outlets, like the Evening Bishkek daily (www.vb.kg, http://www.vb.kg/goroskop/), the newspaper “Vitrina”, the national broadcaster National TV Channel 1, and Channel 5. A feature report about Andrei Ryazantsev aired by the cable channel Stan TV is available at http://www.stan.tv/news/16640/. {[Info-Prim Neo Note:] The author sent us this article on November 20 to the e-mail address of the Agency's director, with the following accompanying message: “Dear Valeriu Vasilica, I would like to bring to your kind attention this astrological forecast that I made with a view to the upcoming legislative elections in Moldova. I am a citizen of Kyrgyzstan and I am not a member of any political party or movement. Generally I contribute to our national outlets, but like I said, in 2009 I visited Moldova, exactly when the first round of parliamentary elections took place. My visit was related to a training course on category management (my first license is in economics) that I conducted for a Chisinau-based home appliances retail company. I returned to Bishkek in August 2009, and on 7 April 2010 we had very similar events to what happened in Chisinau, except that they were more violent in our country. I became interested in this similitude and I started to research. Some of my (astrological) findings were published in the national press, including the Evening Bishkek newspaper (…) Our outlets are more interested in my forecasts related to Kyrgyzstan and to a smaller extent in the forecasts about Moldova. So I decided to present my findings to the Moldovan mass media. I will be very glad if you find this article of any interest. Respectfully yours, Andrei Ryazantsev 189 Moskovskaya Street”. This letter suggested us the idea to confront the 'external' opinion about the political developments around the November 28 elections with the 'internal' one. And so appeared the interview with Tatiana Paladi, the chair of the Cosmology Center “Polus Geticus”, which we publish alongside. - [Valeriu Vasilica, Info-Prim Neo]}.
