NEWS

And a reminder what filthy lowlifes the news media really are. Their harassment of Harry's girlfriends was quite unbelievable. Tracking devices on their cars even, paparazzi camping on their doorsteps, and all the tears just for the lead story. Paparazzi seeking to rent rooftop space from Meghan’s Canadian neighbours to set up permanent cameras.

Media scabs the world-over follow the English model and write whatever the Murdoch mob order. They also used to hack into the phones of Harry and other grieving humans.

'Twas 44 years ago in August that I was introduced to the ' English model.' Starting work at NZ's SUNDAY NEWS as an investigative reporter, and deputy-editor Judy McGregor explained how England's bright red THE SUN was to be our guide. (She didn't add ' for gutter journalism ' )

43 years ago I was in the twilight of my Sunday News career and scab McGregor was in a muck lather one Friday morning. She didn't have a page 3 lead for Sunday ! Her hopes were pinned on a grief-stricken Palmerston North mother, whose child had been trashed by a train during a blackberry collecting expedition.

I was assigned the task of phoning the traumatised mother for some ' heartbreaking ' or ' grisly ' quotes. Fuck that, so I kept ringing a wrong number. Eventually McGregor had to find another page 3 lead and 2 months later editor John Giles decided to find another me. After exactly 52 weeks, I still hadn't produced a single page one story ! Instant dismissal, with a month's pay in lieu of notice.

My best had been a page 3 lead, when an ' age-old oriental aphrodisiac ' was introduced to NZ. The story began when musical legend Graham Brazier turned down a Marijuana joint after sampling some home-made Japanese Sake. A suggestion from a pair of groupies, some more joints, a few manufactured quotes and Sunday News was besieged with enquiries after the Sake recipe suddenly became the formula for a powerful aphrodisiac !

Sunday News has always been a second-class rag. But the 1980 editions make the once stodgy NZ Herald of today look like a well-worn tampon. Rather strangely, in the 2004 New Year Honours, scab McGregor was appointed a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit, for services to journalism !

^{There was near unanimous agreement in the media that Harry's mother,}^{Princess Diana}^{, was the victim of a paparazzi chase and drunken chauffeur in that infamous accident of August 1997 in the Paris tunnel. Harry has his doubts, especially after touring the tunnel and learning the police version, that the fatal vehicle was only doing 65 mph.}

A major Doh ! here. The chauffeur had spent much of the evening with 2 highly-trained soldier-bodyguards, before they separated. And a highly-trained soldier was sitting next to a very intoxicated chauffeur in the doomed vehicle and didn't notice anything wrong ?

Di and Dodi's death was the classic tunnel job, the overtaking car that suddenly swerves in front, at the instant the back-up motorbike's pillion blinds the chauffeur with a powerful strobe light. Then the motorbike doubled back and the ill-fated chauffeur suddenly became very intoxicated from a syringe full of alcohol.

It was obviously a hit, because Princess Diana was becoming a major embarrassment to the Royal family. She was hogging the headlines and had to be eliminated. It seemed only a matter of time before Diana got pregnant to the Arabian fellow that HRH Prince Phillip had branded an ' oily bedhopper, ' and princes William and Harry would inherit a Muslim half-sibling !

Harry's book discusses many weird Royal family traditions. How he was often a sacrificial lamb, with his badness leaked to the press by his father's office, when it was necessary to gain some brownie points or sympathy for Charles. Or Charles and Camilla. His grand Papa without the razzi, HRH Prince Phillip would have been the warm favourite to have ordered the hit on Di and her Dodi.

The Royals are nearly as sick as the media scabs. We must also wonder about the late Queen Lizzy's great friendship with another ' oily bedhopper,' Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who has been married 7 times. He was Lizzy's great Royal Ascot and Derby Day mate and the owner of the Godolphin horse racing empire.

The same cunt who was quite infamously branded a kidnapper by that British judge back in December 2021. All about his daughter Princess Shamsa being abducted by the Sheikh's thugs in Cambridge in the year 2000 and whisked back to Dubai. She hasn't been seen in public since.

British detectives were keen to nail the Arabian imposter but were prevented from travelling to the UAE to ask questions because of “significant sensitivities” involving Sheikh Mohammed. In an exclusive interview, retired Detective Chief Inspector David Beck – who led the team investigating the abduction of Princess Shamsa – said Britain had lost its “moral compass” over the unsolved mystery.

' Nooooooo ' ordered Queen Lizzy. ' Nobody's allowed to hassle my mate Moh. Royal Ascot wouldn't be the same without our annual chit chats, plus he's had more Group One winners ( now 399 ) than any other person, alive or dead ! '

Your nation is crumbling. No surprise when so many of your ' experts ' are liars and cowards with mental illness and/or substance abuse issues.

' Since Labour came into Government in 2017, the prison population peaked in 2018 at around 11,000 and it has currently dropped by about 4000. Retail crime is up 39 percent between 2018-2022 and violent crime is up 18-40 percent since Labour came into power, according to the Department of Corrections.'

While Assaults on police have nearly doubled, to an average of three a day and quite amazingly NZ police reported 422 home invasions in March 2023 alone !

We know all about the tumbling house prices and increasing mortgage rates and all the job slashing. Like more than 500 job losses have been confirmed at Auckland Council and its agencies as part of Mayor Wayne Brown’s cost-cutting budget.

' An economics professor warns New Zealand could move from a cost-of-living crisis into an unemployment crisis as economic activity slows. It comes after the Treasury forecasted 150,000 people could lose their jobs in the next year. '

As a mainstream media 'expert ' he ' could ' have mental illness and/or substance abuse issues. And might just say what he's told to say. And ' could move 'or ' could lose ' are possibilities that might happen, but his ' could ' becomes a ' will ' when the higher power is consulted.

The higher power was consulted, nearly 2 years ago, resulting in that forecast to beware the Ides of November 2023 ! This higher power, as we know, is running rampant as usual. 21-1 so far from the 50 Annual Prophecies of November 2022 !

' There shall be one difficult progression for NZ around November 023 and 2 more difficult progressions around January 024. In progression-speak, Christmas 023 is gonna be 3 times more difficult than the very predicted spring of 2021. Finance and foreign relationships are seriously involved. '

One of those ' difficult progressions ' involves a violent Mars-Pluto clash around January 2024. Mars and Pluto clashes are all about unproductivity, positive energy blocks, frustration and anger management issues. There's gonna be a very angry nation around christmas time.

The Black Caps had those 3 consecutive Test wins, fitting perfectly with the appearance in last November's Annual Prophecies !

Many positives for cricket coach from Uranus around April. Thereafter Neptune-Mercury confusion with May, June, Nov difficult from Uranus-Venus attack. '

When the Uranus buzz wears off and gets replaced by Neptune-Mercury confusion ? Pakistan beat the Black Caps 6--3 in the ODI and 20/20 matches in ' May.'

Major off-year for NRL coach with Pluto-Mars and Uranus-Mercury complications. March, April, May, June, Dec crucial months.'

A Griffin was coaching the St George-Illawarra Dragons until last week when they shared the bottom rung. No surprise he was sacked, with further rubbing-it-in for ' crucial May ' when the Griffinless Dragons won last weekend after 6 consecutive losses.

' The Roosters will be without Brandon Smith for up to seven weeks with the hooker set to undergo surgery on Monday for a fractured thumb.

The 26-year-old Kiwi International did not finish Friday night's clash against the Dragons, after injuring his thumb in the second half of the match.'

' Brandon Smith was a high-profile recruit by the Roosters, but the former Storm star now admits the move has been a disaster leaving him at the lowest point of his career. '

NRL star and Scorpio Moon possessor acting very strangely with erratic Uranus zooming over his Mercury and Mars. May, June, Nov, Dec crucial, with Neptune-Venus confusion in April and Sept.'

Remembering that Scorpion Mooners suffer bigger depressions than most. This is when B Smith needs careful monitoring.

The awesomeness of powerful Pluto trines is well known. With a fine example including shooting star horse trainer Ross Taylor, who passed recently at age 57.

Taylor approached me at a race meeting early in 1996, wondering about his next career move. He was junior training partner to Derby guru Roger James and was thinking of going solo. After the very successful 1995 had been forecast on Trackside TV for his good friend fellow trainer Richard Dee, R Taylor wisely asked for assistance.

So many reasons for R Taylor to be his own boss.Of 23.03.1966 arrival, he was a restless and very ambitious ' Aries Firehorse. ' A combination very unsuited to dull routine or being bossed around.

The birthdate meant that R Taylor, like my March 22, was the beneficiary of an awesome Pluto-Sun trine in 1996 !

Most notably, his mate R Dee, of 21.03.1966 arrival, had been receiving the identical aspect in his very progressive 1995. Pluto trines bring advancement and are good for starting new ventures.

A separate Pluto elevation in 1994 had seen me start a weekly column in Truth's sports section and also appearances with Murray Deaker on Newstalk ZB. The 0900 race tipping service kicked off with a boom in March 1995, helped by irregular gigs on Trackside TV.

Ross Taylor kicked off his solo training career in the 1996-97 season. My 0900 clients collected handsomely from one of his early winners, Joy's Boy at $8.40 in November. Early in January 1997 at Avondale I collared Taylor with some instructions:

' Set something for Auckland Cup day, 1999, January 1, your stars are awesome.'

In only his 3^rd season, R Taylor is training one of the nation's best 3 year-olds, NZ Derby fancy So Casual. And R Taylor happens to be looking good for an 0900 punt on Boxing Day. With Australian big race jockey Damien Oliver engaged.

A time of birth for D Oliver would help, so I phoned him on Christmas Day at the Sheraton Hotel in Auckland. ' Olly ' learned about Astrology, the benevolence for Ross Taylor tomorrow and also the malevolence for the favourite in the Derby, Nahayan. Her rider Peter Johnson was under difficult aspects on Dec 26, 1998, ' so you don't have to worry about him.'

Next call was to mother Oliver over in Perth, for Damien's arrival time. Which fitted perfectly for the punt. Early in the home straight of the 1998 NZ Derby, So Casual and D Oliver took the lead, but Nahayan ( Peter Johnson ) swooped and looked the winner.

Then Nahayan saw a friend in the grandstand and suddenly veered left, frustrating Johnson and losing enough momentum for So Casual to win by a neck at $4.20 !

Come that ' January 1, 1999 ' and R Taylor had a maiden named Three Hearts racing at Ellerslie again. And was I pissed off ! Three Hearts led until the last few blades of grass, beaten a neck. Ironically ridden by Peter Johnson, with $2.15 the place dividend. Bloody Taylor's first-ever loss for me !

Soon after, a drama started unfolding. The winner's trainer, Richard Collett, confessed to the stewards that he may have innocently administered a certain substance inside of the legal withholding time. Three Hearts' promotion to first was confirmed a couple of weeks later after a positive drug test had been returned by that winner.

Next time I saw Ross Taylor he acknowledged ' that bloody good New Year's Day prediction. '

No it wasn't. You got your trainer's percentage, but we didn't get the win dividend ! Telecom records showed that 217 people had phoned the 0900 number that day.

Ross the restless Aries Firehorse had a location change then surprisingly retired from training in 2002. He came back briefly in 2005 then moved on and finally departed in Muswellbrook, NSW.

A client in the entertainment business asked me to ' check out Amber Peebles' stars.'

Apparently the Miss World NZ title-winner of 2003 is having a few problems. Totally confirmed after I sussed her birthday planets and giant expletives were produced !

Ms Peebles is subject to very serious and difficult solar progressions. Like the Sun attacking both the progressed and natal Pluto and Saturn positions in the next 2 to 3 years !

That’s a major, 4 Big hits in 2 or 3 years. Not many case histories, perhaps disgraced former rugby league star-entertainer Brent Todd. His Big 4 supervised his bankruptcy, separating from the wife and 2 kids, and being charged over the celebrity drug ring and pokie fraud. And losing all his TV gigs as well.

Like tracing the history of a similarly affected Indian client with ‘ what happened then ? ’ He took redundancy from his IT job and invested in a coffee bar. Then started having an affair with a waitress which broke up his marriage and lightened him by $250k.

Meaning there will be serious comedowns for Ms Peebles, much ado with business losses, career reversals and major problems involving an important male or partner.

You are driving along listening to Magic FM and old time greats like Jeff Beck, Amen Corner and R Dean Taylor. And Dragon, NZ contemporaries who remind us of the awesome childhoods experienced by those born in the 1950s.

When there was minimal television, no computers or cellphones and we didn't have fathers who drooled over super losers like Duncan Garner or Martin Devlin. Nor mothers who worshipped things like Charlotte Dawson and Jayjay Feeney.

Could Marc Bolan or Mark Knopfler be next to enhance those wonderful memories ? No. It's the news bulletin and another playground shooting in America ! Then a pair of children allegedly murdered in a sleepy little NZ town, but it's not all bad. There is usually soccer news from England.

Why is the mainstream news so full of misery ? What say the directors of Kirwanking Ltd, the company that promotes ' depression ' ? Thoughts needed from Sir Johnny Wino and medication Mikey.

Once upon a time old ' granny Herald ' was the guardian of the nation's morals. You think of those lifers, who experienced that serious journalism of 40 or 50 years ago, and how pride in their publication could no longer exist. The cowards who've cringed away from Astrological magnificence, and even lied about it !

We must remember that reading is not really recommended by the New World Order. The Golden Generation ( 1938--58 ), with minimal television, was full of readers and thinkers who started asking questions. And protesting about wars and racism while promoting peace and love and Cannabis and refusing to fight in Viet Nam.

Not what Mr Rothschild and co desire. They prefer television and videos, because brains are far more likely to be damaged by flashing lights and loud noise than peaceful reading. And more likely to get drunk to cope with the mayhem of a footy match.

Even better though, to fill them with fear and loathing. Make them aware that violence is around every corner. Fearful people don't argue. They just follow orders:

Each morning I gaze at the Herald's Watch List and wonder what could have been. I had plans to be a racing journalist there forever, but it were 46 years ago last month that I was deemed unfit to be a lifer.

Recently I was discussing Astrology with a doctor and the importance of House 6 of the 12 in the natal chart.

A clean 6th House, the domain of ' health, work and diet, ' means your health issues will be minimal. Conversely, bad planets therein like Pluto, Uranus and Neptune will supervise serious illnesses like Cancer. I've noted that slightly weaker Saturn in the 6th produces a lot of diabetics. Etc

Pretty complicated education for doc, who did concede that he believes in Astrology, because it's in the Bible. From a Google search:

Daniel answered the king and said, “No wise men, enchanters, magicians, or astrologers can show to the king the mystery that the king has asked, but there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and he has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will be in the latter days. Your dream and the visions of your head as you lay in bed are these: '

Don answered the King and said, ' Hey Charlie, hark ye back to the Friday Flash of August 15, 1991 and the prophetic headline: Prince Charles and Lady Diana " Advance warning of bust up " and how your decade long marriage would end late next year ! And if that doth not pleaseth your majesty, check out www.donmurrayastrologer.com for May 13, 2015, and the phenomenal forecast about your son Harry, getting married and becoming a parent 3 and 4 years later !

Old Daniel's ' God in heaven ' couldn't solve those ' mysteries ' could he ? And poor Dan obviously hasn't been privy to Astrologically-calculated certainties in chariot racing ! '

It is quite obvious from the early bible babble that important people would use Astrology, because it worked. But not encourage popular use.

There would be rebels who wouldn't be intimidated by the propaganda around plagues and the Covid creation: ' Fuck off, doc, I've got a clean 6th House ! '

The rulers realised that people could use it to manipulate the system. Like entrepreneurs and racketeers being able to break laws and commit crimes when you're under an awesome Pluto trine and won't get busted !

Important people still keep the great science from the great unwashed. And are too stupid to even use it themselves !

There's a round of annual yearling sales that are a must for serious horse owners and trainers.

They need young blood to replenish their teams. Instead of the in-person purchasing at Karaka, Inglis, Magic Millions and co, there is an internet auction site, Gavelhouse, where horses can also be bought.

Just like pedos perusing the kiddy porn sites, looking for their favourite breed or a bargain. Was this bloke looking for a yearling colt ?

' New Zealand Labour Party politician, Grant Robertson, is facing backlash after social media sleuths discovered he was allegedly following an Instagram account called 'Cute Boys Philippines.'

The account, which has more than 40,000 followers, features photos and videos of what appear to be underage boys from the Philippines in various stages of undress.'

Another polly getting seriously rearranged from Saturn and Uranus attacking his Mercury, Venus and Mars positions. Jan, Feb, May, Sept, Oct, Dec notable.'

Grunter hit form very quickly. His ' getting seriously rearranged ' in ' Jan, Feb ' included resigning from the Labour deputyship when Hipkins took over from Ardern !

The attacks on Venus indicate difficulties in close relationships as well. He's been married to his husband for 14 years, but a closer inspection of Grunter's birthday planets shows he has his Moon in Pisces !

Oh dear. Incredibly talented and creative humans who find it hard departing from childhood habits. They float along in their childishness and the norm is 4 or 5 serious relationships-marriages for a Pisces Mooner. ' Mature ' and ' responsible ' aren't in their dictionary. Parenting is definitely not their long suit.

There's plenty in horse racing, most notably the great controversials like Lester Piggott, Darren Weir and Sheikh Mohammed. Notable NZ contributions include disgraced polly John Banks and entertainers Willy de Wit and Larry Morris. Also the problem-laden ex-All Black Zac Guildford.

The entertainment world has contained many of the talented and polygamous: Michael Jackson, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Prince, Robin Williams, Winona Ryder, Frank Sinatra, Axl Rose, Meatloaf, Lisa Marie Presley and Elvis Presley.

Big changes though, for Grunter in respect of guys in the next 2 years. Uranus anti his Venus and Mars will have him behaving very erratically.

That was my reaction to the Australian seaman who first offered me a joint of Marijuana 50 years ago this evening, a Saturday.

'Twas the lounge of a boarding house in McDonald Crescent, Wellington. 4 others present confirmed their Marijuana use hadn't led to harder drugs and I made my debut. Soon after the ' munchies ' set in, and 7 of us went down to the pancake parlour in Willis St. We gorged ourselves stupid on pancake dishes, mostly the sweet ones, for 3 hours.

Special thanks to Ernie and the late Glen, of the Australian Merchant Navy, for sauntering through NZ customs with heaps of Marijuana in their pockets.

My Sunday News journalism duties in 1979 included being sent to interview leading drug researcher Dr Sally Casswell, about Marijuana's possibilities as an aphrodisiac.

Her stance was that Marijuana ' intensifies what's in the mind.' There are, of course, certain creative minds that will be compatible, other minds that won't be able to handle the changes.

For 18 consecutive years, from 1994, Astrology got incredible publicity from an annual hour with Murray Deaker ONZM on Newstalk ZB every January.

Deaker always reviewed last year's sports predictions, then threw the talkback lines open for listeners to get some personal enlightenment. All were totally blown away by my identification of past events from just their birthdates, which gave them confidence for future predictions. Deaker raved about this, as well the normal 90+% accuracy with predictions on sporting identities. ' No one gets the talkback lines ringing like Don Murray, his New Year predictions have become legendary ' was a quote Deaker provided for my own publicity.

The listeners weren't the only ones ' totally blown away.' I was, too. It was normal to have a hash cookie 20 minutes before the show, or a cone. Once in the studio my water bottle contained H2o that had been modified after boiling with low-class Marijuana and cooled. Being in the zone assists concentration on deep subjects and that's why the great musicians are off their faces before a major gig.

The 1985 World Champion Australian rugby league team had major internal problems on its NZ tour. Many of the players found great relief from the night porter's bong when they spent a couple of weeks staying at the Royal International Hotel in central Auckland.

There was NSW prop Peter Tunks, prancing about the Queen St--Victoria St intersection around 3 a.m in July, stark naked except for a pair of underpants on his head. 8 team members lining up for a ' magic shotgun ' from myself, the night porter.

To a room full of startled, breakfasting Japanese tourists,Queensland prop Greg Dowling appeared to be on the brink of thumping the night porter. All I had done was accuse Dowling of stealing a ginormous pudding from his very stoned roommate earlier that morning. Next minute Dowling's confessed and we're laughing our heads off.

A very drunk and obnoxious NSW back, wearing only a shirt, took a drag of a joint in a hotel room, promptly peeled off his shirt and went to sleep on the floor. Stark naked. There was captain ' King Wally ' Lewis chasing the night porter with a fire extinguisher for ' getting all my boys stoned.'

Back in August 1987, I earned a vague ban from racetracks after a magazine article advocating the benefits of Marijuana. The Sunday Star-Times headlined the drama with PRO MARIJUANA TIPSTER BANNED FROM RACETRACK. Newstalk ZB radio host Paul Holmes lapped it up on Monday morning in prime time and quizzed me on published allegations that 50% of northern jockeys were using Marijuana.

I simply told Holmes that I'd smoked Marijuana with about 60 jockeys, before and after the races, to his shock. ' You mean to say that jockeys actually go out and ride after they've been smoking Marijuana ? '

Yep, and I elaborated. Like travelling up to Hawkesbury races from Sydney the previous December, sharing a couple of joints with the driving jockey who got there and won the first race !

There was plenty of publicity, and a very angry racecourse inspector wanted the names of 60 jockeys, to charge them, before I could be unbanned ! No way, and that earned me a 2nd interview with Tim Bickerstaff on Radio Pacific. Eventually one of NZ racing's superiors woke to the stupidity and the ban was wiped after 8 months.

Countless tales, like puffing the magic flagon with 3 jockeys who would go out and trifecta race one at Ellerslie an hour later.

It was my last night in the dullest job ever. Dishwasher in some poncey restaurant in London for 2 weeks. Back home by bus after lunch, a housemate had knocked off work early and had some primo Colombian so we got very wasted. Back to evening work on the bus and some brightness in the dull job---a strawberry blonde, leggy Polish waitress ! In a bunny girl outfit that was little more than a black bikini !

Gliding past the whirring machine, and I'm sitting there, totally wasted, incapable of creating a sentence. Gliding past again, she stops: ' Don, your eyes, you have a been drinking ? '

Nah, got very stoned this afternoon. ' You got Marijuana ? I love smoke ! ' Yeah. ' Oooh, we go my place after work. Not far. '

My French teacher of 1968 got stung when I happened to visit Mt Albert Grammar in 1985. When he asked me if I had found French useful after schooldays and I gave him a big ' Definitely ! ' So he asked me to give his class, around 70% Polynesian, an example---- Like you've been in Morocco ( 1981 ) less than 2 hours and you're sitting on top of the motel smoking primo hashish with 3 locals ! The Paris-based student could speak some English, but the 2 hash vendors couldn't speak any. So you spend 3 or 4 hours speaking a lot of French, their 2nd language. The pupils are pissing themselves and the smaller-than-me teacher is getting very pissed off and trying to physically assist me from the classroom. While I'm explaining that ' les manges ' from the French word ' to eat, ' ( manger ) is the Moroccan equal to our beloved ' munchies.' !

I had a rare request before a Chinese New Year celebration in January 2020. The request from a Chinese guest, whose father was over for her wedding and she wanted someone to introduce him to smoking Marijuana. I was selected, and the requester introduced me to her father, then disappeared before I realised he and his mate couldn't speak a word of English ! An interpreter was soon found, with instructions to ' tell him take deep breath ( from the pipe ) and hold down as long as possible.'

Many handshakes and grins from the 2 Chinese debutants as the celebrations continued. Next week worldwide shocks at the Covid outbreak in Wuhan ! Sharing a pipe with a pair of Chinese suddenly became very risky. Later I learned that the main debutant was ex-military and a kind of standover man--enforcer--debt collector back in China.

Melbourne trainer Ray McLaren was one of the crafty masters at setting gallopers up for the punt. A stickler for routine, he'd arrive at his Mordialloc stables around 4.50 am, and start mucking out boxes.One Saturday morning there was a big WTF ?

A neighbouring horse breaker named Ryan, wearing only underpants, was gazing at his neatly-folded clothes in one of the McLaren stable's hosing bays !

Yesterday Ryan had spent his normal long Friday from noon in the Mordialloc pub. Then rocked up to continue partying in the McLaren stable flat, officially the preserve of Ray's trackrider Mick, often with 2 or 3 fellow Kiwi boarder/party animals.

Ryan prided himself on abstaining from Marijuana ' cos I'll end up like you bloody Kiwis.' Very drunk Ryan made the mistake of falling asleep. The ' magic shotgun ' was reloaded yet again and his snoring, opening mouth received a few bullets. He woke an hour later, bade us all farewell and wobbled outside, around 10 pm.

Then Ryan must have undressed, and neatly folded his jeans, loud shirt, cowboy boots and stetson into the hosing bay, then wobbled across the lane to his own flat.

A lower-rung Mr Asia syndicate member named Lance the Rooster had settled into prison farm life in the mid-North Island early in 1977. He'd earned a 2 years lag for selling Marijuana. A gangster associate named Sharpie wanted a co-pilot for a trip to Hautu Prison Farm and I volunteered for the prison visit-experience. In Taupo, Sharpie stopped at a chemist to purchase some condoms, one of which was stuffed with Marijuana in glad wrap.

Visiting area at Hautu had picnic tables far enough from the guard's box. A table full of home-cooked goodies from various lady friends was laid and Sharpie also produced a Rothmans packet full of Marijuana joints to complement the feast. Several hours later the Rooster needed to visit the guest's toilet to shove the Marijuana-filled condom up his arse, in case of a pat down of pockets or rare strip search. Then back to his cell a lot happier than when he woke up.

One summer incorporated frequent trips out of Auckland to free dive for Kina/Sea Egg/Toitoi/Tukumisi, usually with 2 Samoan brothers and a guest. Waiwera was a beach of plenty and about half an hour north.

Samoan-borns with natural diving instinct would collect heaps, and inexperienced Palagi much less, but we had way over the 50 p.p quota.While a Maori girl guest sat on the beach shelling Kina and putting the roe into very hideable snaplock bags. Just in case...

Around 2 hours of free diving brings a great feeling of elation. All those Kina to share and devour.You're ' in the zone.' After the drying and dressing came the most memorable bong. Intensifying the elation of achievement and our brains were very unproductive as I drove back to Auckland.

Serious conversation included ' Good smoke, eh ' and ' Yeah bro ' before the Maori girl produced ' Strawberries ! ' and I pulled over to the roadside stall in blissful silence. Then pleasantly back home to split the plunder in 4 and share with others. Eventually we'd recover from the temporary brain paralysis.

August 10, 1996 had the running of the Foxbridge Plate at Te Rapa racecourse. A time-honoured weight-for-age classic,1400-metres sprint--- in this year won by a 9 year-old rank outsider, Clean Cut, best known as a steeplechaser who had never in his life won at a sprint distance. Then a major surprise a couple of weeks later---the announcement of a positive drug test !

You could imagine an old steeplechaser sprouting wings and getting youthful with some methamphetamine-cobalt-blue magic-snake oil-elephant juice-strychnine-caffeine-Dr Bells ( all common, illegal additives ) in his system, but it was not Clean Cut who returned the positive. His jockey, John Hayes had returned a positive to Marijuana when randomly tested.

You can only wonder how much Clean Cut would have won by if J D Hayes had been on a drug that supposedly didn't impair judgement. But the downside was Hazy getting disqualified for 4 months and unable to go near a racehorse or track.

I have actually found Marijuana to be performance enhancing. There was a time when I could swim about 70% of the 33-metres Panmure swimming pool underwater.But after a recent cone of Marijuana, I could crack the entire 33 metres on one breath !

Some 15 years ago, a pair of wild teenage girls nicknamed ' Silicone ' and ' Morgasm ' deemed it ' sooooooooooo tragic ' that I had never sampled Ecstasy. I'd done a few lines of cocaine, several LSD trips, and Magic Mushrooms in North-western Australia in the 1970s and 80s, but no needles or heroin. I still haven't taken up Silicone and Morgasm's offer of Ecstasy education, or tried the very popular P Pipe.

The legacy from 50 years of Murrayjuana abuse ? I have to take one anti-cholestorol tablet daily, and consequently haven't been able to eat grapefruit for nearly 7 years !

There's nothing wrong with ' cheating ' refs. Or ' blind refs.'

Or the NRL ref that Tongan prop Addin Fonua-Blake called a ' fucking retard ' a few seasons back.

Like the players and coaches, the referees are subject to Astrological influences. You could have refs under the ' Uranus--Mercury attack ' that's causing ' Bad Karma Cameron ' George so much stress at the moment ( story below )

Ironically cheating-blind-retard refs played major parts in 2 of the G.O.A.T prophecies ever!

It took many Kiwi rugby yawnion fans years to get over the great Wayne Barnes ' blinder.' When he missed the blatant French forward pass in October 2007 that helped with the All Blacks' worst-ever Rugby World Cup result.

I still haven't gotten over that game. That forward pass was actually a ' try assist ' to one of the greatest prophecies ever made !

Warning host Murray Deaker ONZM and a nation of listeners that probable next All Blacks coach Graham Henry was a big risk for the next Rugby World Cup year ( 2007 ) because of disastrous late year Pluto-Moon and Uranus-Sun reversals.

In October 2007, G Henry's All Blacks had their worst-ever RWC, getting dumped in a quarter-final by France !

There was another ' bad decision ' in a rugby league test nearly 32 years ago, highlighting yet another phenomenal prophecy !

' I'm not optimistic about the Kiwis winning the next league test against Australia, but I hope like Donald I'm wrong. Next Wednesday's a special for Mal Meninga and a bummer for Jarrod McCracken.

' I'll be relaying this prognosis to coach Bob Bailey so don't be surprised if the wonder centre is subbed early in the game.'

After 26 minutes Jarrod McCracken was sent from the field after making an innocent attempt to stop a brawl !

The ref that night obviously would have been under similar difficult aspects to McCracken, and also Australian back Peter Jackson, who got marched as well.

As long as Pluto, Uranus and co are up there, refs, players and coaches are always gonna be making bad decisions.

I don't have too many problems with the rapidly decomposing NZ racing industry.

It's assisted the wonderful earns for our Champion Racing System, with amazing memories of the golden 1970s when laughing with the old timers on Facebook. And our phenomenal, long-range certainties have provided a formidable ' SHUT THE FUCK UP ' clause to silence any snivelling, scowling sceptics of Astrology.

We know NZ racing is heavily in the shit financially,and are having to accept that the very expensive synthetic tracks have been a major flop. They are praying that the minister of racing approves the sale of a NZ icon, the TAB, to a dodgy foreigner who's gonna provide some brief financial relief. While ensuring that any profits will eventually head back to his own fat pocket !

So many problems, but the CEO of NZTR, ' loose Bruce ' Sharrock has had more pressing issues in his feed bin. He's been a sports agent for 14 years, and was recently involved in negotiating his client Roger Tuivasa-Sheck back to the NZ Warriors. Many dealings with their CEO, ' Bad Karma Cameron ' George, who is also the chairman of the NZTR board.

As a pathetic Pisces Dragon straight out of dreamland, a.k.a ' Kiss of Death Cameron, ' the Aussie job hopper has an horrific record in various short-term jobs in racing. A big risk at the best of times, especially after last November's prophecy !

Much mental chaos for ' Bad Karma Cameron ' from Uranus-Mercury attack around May. With a double dose between Dec, and Feb 024 over career problems. '

NZ racing's $1 million-a-month borrowing to maintain promised stake levels is well-known. As are the horrific decreases in profits but massive increases in operating expenses.

But the latest oddity is the iconic Grand National Steeples meeting at Riccarton, which should be happening in 3 months’ time. The format of the jumping season is usually public in March, but we still don't know if August's gonna have the Grand National Steeplechase that began in 1839 !

Last year the great steeplechase only had 5 starters and fears were held for its future. Obviously there has been dialogue with trainers, because one of them has assured me that the jumps races will happen. Like the Grand National Hurdles and Steeples on Saturday, August 12, and their 2 lead-up races a week before. With a minor hurdles race on both days as well.

Very strange, though, that Loose Bruce and Bad Karma Cammo are keeping it all secret. Of course they have got much bigger issues to stress them. Rugby and League are in full swing keeping agent Sharrock occupied.

And Bad Karma Cammo's Warriors have slipped from 2nd a few weeks ago to be 11th on the ladder ! Awesome timing, to coincide with that ' Uranus-Mercury attack around May ' !

If Messers Sharrock and George did announce the new season's jumping races, they would have to disclose the stake money being offered. There would be decreases all round, and that would be very embarrassing.

That fella universally known as ' Harry ' has already found a place in the 10 G.O.A.T Prophecies.

' I’d love to know what odds the bookmakers are offering on Prince Hazza becoming a husband and father in 2018-2019…. '

A reasonably phenomenal prophecy, considering Harry got married in May 2018 and became a father 12 months later !

His performances this year are promising a very rare double: Beginning of marriage predicted, End of marriage predicted ?

April's big news was ' Harry will go to Charles' coronation, Meghan won't.'

Home and family chaos with Uranus atop his Moon in June, Nov and April. Saturn-Mercury post-marital issues in April, Aug and Jan 024. '

Very confused and weakened from difficult Sun-Neptune progressions, with March and May noteworthy. Difficult personal changes around August.

Consider ' August. ' Harry's got ' post-marital issues ' again and Meghan's got some ' difficult personal changes ' !

There are more sick bastards in the nation than I thought. There's been ample evidence of Astrology's magnificence here but the great science does have provision for sad sceptics. There are formulae for the ' depressed ' and ' mentally ill ' and narrow minds.

Similar principles for the sceptics. Mostly ' university educated ' and usually in software and computer careers, they go through life as the trotting horse wearing blinkers.They don't travel or mix well and have no sporting inclinations. Television slowly and secretly intimidates them to become mouthy minnows or noisy nobodys.

There are many of these one-career ' lifers ' in journalism and much has been written about the apathy of those veteran scowlers to the wonderful science. This narrow-mindedness is natural for any lifer who remains in the rut, with horrific examples in veteran journalists Jane Phare and Donna Chisholm. Both aged 65, lifelong residents of Auckland with journalism their only occupation !

Astrology is a natural for family-orientated humans and those who've experienced massive upheaval like immigration. And notably very popular with people who take risks, travellers and explorers. Many of my clientele have been jockeys and successful sports persons, with 7 national sports champions actually in the register.

Lately very popular with lawyers and successful law-breakers. Total confidentiality is guaranteed for paying clients, unless one publicly brings the great science into disrepute. As did Jayjay Feeney and the late Charlotte Dawson.

Amidst the carnage of NZ rugby in October 2007, I emailed the Canterbury Rugby Union re gaining a birth time for the possible next All Blacks coach, Super Rugby great Robbie Deans. A week later there's a reply from a secretary, with apologies, ' because Robbie has just returned from France, and he would like to speak with you.'

A logical man, aware that Astrology had forecast the All Blacks' still worst-ever, defeat in a RWC quarter-final, 4 years beforehand. Robbie phoned re the influences over his possible move to Australia, while hampered by the Cheviot Hospital having no record of his 1959 time of arrival.

Widely-travelled and very popular rugby league/union prop goalkicker Gavin Hill was the only notable disbeliever in the original 1995-96 Auckland Warriors.

There was plenty of Astrological fun with the new franchise, after the $19 horse racing winner tipped to fullback Phil Blake the day after their debut match. There were consecutive ' certainties ' in the Great Northern Steeplechase and some stunning predictions on their matches and certain opposition players. I was writing a column on Astrological sports influences in the weekly Truth, and had media privileges for Warriors games, to gain birth details from visiting notables and soak up information.

As one post-match press conference in 1996 petered out, Warriors coach John Monie noticed me near the door and asked if I could ' make sure our stars are good for the Gold Coast next week.'

Monie had been fascinated when I approached him at a trial match in late 1994. Mrs Julie Monie volunteered to get John's birth info from the older Mrs Monie and took my phone number. Julie Monie's message a few weeks later highlighted the extremes of Astrology.

One afternoon, after 2-3 hours in one of South Auckland's leading ' cannabis supermarkets, ' part of it explaining the Astrological to a gang member about to get 7 years inside for armed robbery. Then you float home to the answerphone and birth information on the man who is still the only coach to have won the major Grand Finals in both hemispheres.

John Monie featured very prominently with Murray Deaker on Newstalk ZB, in April 1996. It was deemed that the struggling,3 consecutive-losses Warriors were ' one of the investments of all time ' to beat Illawarra in Wollongong in 10 days time. When stunned Deaker asked why, there was a simple reason:

Neither J Monie, or myself, were feeling very Chironic when the Auckland Warriors were 6-20 down at halftime. An incredible comeback had them beating Illawarra, 30-20.

Less than 2 months later I was answering Monie's Gold Coast query, with 'All sorted. In fact I'll be over there in person rooting for you guys.'

' Thanks for the offer, ' Monie replied, ' but I'd rather be rooting for myself.'

But the team sceptic Gavin Hill still wouldn't budge, and ring his mother for a time of arrival. He wasn't moved by ' do it for the team ' but it was a different story 12--13 years later when we met on social media: ' Hey mate, let's catch up for a beer, I need a reading.'

WTF ? ------' Yeah, I know, but I changed my mind after the prediction you made on Stacey Jones.' When NZ rugby league's ' little general ' missed most of a season after Uranus--Sun negativity unblessed him with a broken arm.

No alcohol in my house, so Gavin called in for an Ethiopian coffee and a free appraisal. And was very fascinated, with a ' Gee, I'll tell you what happened then ' when many of his life upheavals were identified.

So it's an absolute no brainer when the NZ Skeptics are offering $100K to anyone who can prove they possess a supernatural or paranormal ability. We start with the horse racing certainties, labelled as far as 5 years, 4 months and 3 days in advance !

Or the ' Martin Crowe day ' where the great cricketer got 10 months warning of an impeccable day when he made 193 not out !

Think, think, think, you stupid bastards. How could any non-supernatural produce pearls like that ? If still a sceptic, check the link:

Jones, Little, Barrett, Nadal, Tuivasa-Sheck, Dixon, Mahuta, Markle, Colgan, Griffin, Harry, Riddell, McCullum, Putin, King Charlie, Kohli, Robertson, Robinson, Stead, Devlin, George and Lacy are notable already from the 50. Then note the 10 Greatest of All Time.

If you're still a snivelling, scowling sceptic, go dunk your head in a toilet bowl and leave it there.

The new coach was the key, with his Penrith training coming through, the defence, the ...., Shaun Johnson etc. The NZ Warriors had won 4 out of their first 5 matches and were 2nd on the ladder !

Of course the many-headed monster of the pit overlooked the A factor. From last November !

Much mental chaos for ' Bad Karma Cameron ' from Uranus-Mercury attack around May. With a double dose between Dec, and Feb 024 over career problems.'

NZ Warriors' owner facing many dramatic reversals from Uranus attacking his Sun and Jupiter, and the frustrations of Saturn v his Mars. April, June, July, Aug, Oct, Nov his stressiest months.'

Plenty of reversals from Saturn--Mercury and Uranus--MC complications. April, July, Aug, Dec crucial. Much better off in 2025--26 with Pluto trining his Mercury.'

Note the last sentence. I have already seen much positivity in 2025--26 for M Robinson and new coach Andrew Webster as well. There was a double expletive last week when I checked out their big signing for 2024-25-26, Roger Tuivasa-Scheck. 2026 has RTS's Jupiter getting trined by not only Pluto, but Uranus as well !

Lest we not forget that awesome Pluto trines supervised coach Stacey Jones winning premierships with the Pt Chevalier Pirates ( twice ) and the NZ Warriors juniors. He's an assistant to A Webster now and needs to be kept on for a few more years.

As per the mortals of 1966 birth in the Oriental calendar. Deemed to be the most uncontrollable of Buddha's animals and very unsuited to dull routine for too long. The Fire Horse recurs every 60 years, and traditional Chinese were reluctant to create Fire Horses. Many terminated pregnancies in 1965.

So many of these restless characters in the wonderful horse racing industry. 1966 has donated Melbourne's Tommy Hughes jun and others of the Australasian turf like Shane Dye, Craig Thornton, Paul Hamblin, Gavin Eades, Paul Taylor, Tony Allan, Darryl Bradley, Margaret Falconer and bush jockey Shirley Hunter etc.

There were NZ shooting star trainers like Ross Taylor, Richard Otto and Richard Dee who tired of the tedium and moved on.

Other non-racing notables have included Mike Tyson, disgraced All Black Robin Brooke, legendary heroin adict Aaron Cohen and the late Charlotte Dawson. It's very hard to imagine a politician of 1966 vintage tolerating all the parliamentary piddle for too long.

But NZ's pollies include Korean-born Melissa Lee, who's been a National List MP since 2008. Nearly 15 years !

Fortunately she gave me a very precise birth time during her journalism life over 30 years ago, then chose not to pursue the enlightenment. No surprise, for the shallowness of journalism doesn't inspire serious thought.

Many expletives were uttered when Ms Lee's February 1966 arrival was updated to the present ! She deserved to be in last November's Annual Prophecies, alongside names like Little, Faafoi, Mahuta, Robertson, Woods and Collins, with all their complications. ( Luxon was wiped in late 2021 )

It could be the old mare will bow a tendon, or just lose form and be sent to pasture. The extra for November 2022:

Massive and unbelievable change for veteran polly with Uranus attacking her Sun and Mercury and Pluto suffocating Venus. Feb, May, June, July and Dec very crucial, with major reversals around March 024.'

' Rate cuts by November’ - Kiwibank economists expect recession to see off inflation

Kiwibank economists say they expect to see the Reserve Bank (RBNZ) cutting the Official Cash Rate by November as the economy heads into recession.'

When the majority of officials make promises or predictions they seldom come true. The latest babble has back up, though, in the News section of www.donmurrayastrologer.com on December 22, 2021 !

As the final phase of the nation being ' weakened, unhealthy, gullible, confused and careless with money ' from difficult Sun--Neptune progressions petered out, with Covid restrictions easing dramatically. Resulting in this judgement:

' There shall be one difficult progression for NZ around November 023 and 2 more difficult progressions around January 024 !

In progression speak, Christmas 023 is gonna be 3 times more difficult than the very predicted spring of 2021. Finance and foreign relationships are seriously involved. '

The much-publicised $100K Skeptics challenge has taken NZ ethics to a sickening low. When the chairman of the sick society even appeared on Newstalk ZB recently with the disgusting Du Plessis Allan promoting their poison.

Newstalk ZB was actually where NZ's spiritual renaissance began in 1994. With the first of those amazing, annual hours with Murray Deaker, eventually an ONZM who would absolutely rave about the greatness of the ' Astrologer extraordinaire.'

Like: ' You won't have to go to any games this year, you'll know all the results beforehand, because Don Murray's coming into the studio at 2 pm.' and ' Nobody gets the talkback lines ringing like Don Murray. His New Year predictions have become legendary ' and ' he gets it right, that's why we keep bringing him back every year.'

This went for 18 years, and thousands of newly-gained Astrological clients had their lives changed for the better. You've only gotta check the pearls in the article on April 19 that would bash any filthy sceptic into surrender. I lobbed a few grenades onto the NZ Skeptics website and created some dialogue:

Are you going to consider extending the challenge to the racing tipster who claims he can pick winners based on Astrology

We have a vast amount of people we can challenge and only a limited amount of time and money. So at this stage, we are focusing on prominent people/products.

I could easily label one of my horse trainer certainties for the lucrative autumn of 2024. Just to shut the dirty bastards up. We could have a 100-1 shot, like the ' N McBurney ' special in Sydney of June 1988 or the $27 winner that Te Aroha trainer Gavin Opie bagged us on January 4 last year.

No reason too, though. All the proof is in the public arena, plus too much publicity would severely reduce our win dividend. And those filthy skeptics would find any excuse to wriggle out of the contract.

Now just because the mainscream media says so doesn't mean it's necessarily gonna happen. But the looming recession was first verified on this very website nearly 2 years ago, with warnings to ' Beware the Ides of November 2023 ' and the late year horrifics for NZ's economy !

Rather ironically, I made a first and only-time call to Newstalk ZB veteran Kerre Woodham way back, warning of the November 2023 disruption. And reminding her of the 4 years-warning given on the very same airwaves in November 2003 of one of NZ's biggest-ever disasters-- the 2007 Rugby World Cup !

Front up Kerre. Tell the disgusting Du Plessis Allan and those scabby, scowling sceptics that they don't need any more proof whatsoever !

Remember: You can't help stupid if he don't wanna be helped. Much easier to laugh at the all losers who go through life as trotting horses wearing blinkers. And with serious Jupiter--Sun, Mars--Pluto and Saturn--Moon progressions between October and March 2024, there will be no shortage of ' amusement. '

I was reading about the champion Melbourne jockey Jamie Kah's horrific race fall last month. Then a ' Jamie Kah Astrology ' google search to see if a time of birth had been located for her. I have only a date, and so much more can be ascertained with an arrival time. I was stunned by the result:

'Jamie Kah herself has got some incredible, massive personal reconstructions in 2023-24 ' according to ' Don Murray Astrologer August 30, 2021.'

Then I remembered. I'd been reviewing Kah's 2020-21 season, when she became the first female winner of the Victorian Metropolitan Jockeys’ Premiership with 105 wins.When her engagement to trainer Clayton Douglas finally ended and it went public about Kah and fellow cheater Ben Melham, who'd left his partner as well. On August 30, 2021 it was decreed:

' Jamie Kah herself has got some incredible, massive personal reconstructions in 2023-24. Pluto squashing her Venus position and the confusion of Neptune attacking both her Sun and Jupiter.

Time out and a massive life change are certain, and J Kah would already be 1000-1 on fixed odds to win another premiership in those years.'

The big Kah crash happened on March 11 at Flemington. Heavy concussion had her unable to speak for a fortnight. There's a long, slow rehabilitation period.

It's mirth to the max with the massive recession looming. And a nation of cry babies reliant on cowards and liars with mental illness issues for their wisdom. And so many angries, going through life like the trotting horse wearing blinkers.

But I was in stitches after catching up with a great man of gangsterland the other day and learning about the ram raid craze. It's all being run by the gangs, with some of the orders actually coming from ' Parry,' the maximum security prison 30 mins north of Auckland !

In ram raiding there are 3 levels. The top level are responsible for stealing a vehicle and keeping it hidden for a week or so. Top level does the surveillance work, selects the targets and will follow the stolen vehicle at a distance to the ram raid.

Medium level collect the lower-rung raiders when they ditch the stolen vehicle at a designated place. I wondered about certain gangs and the quick response was ' All of them, bro'. It's like a competition.'

Like hey Cuzz, we hit Michael Hill Jeweller last night ? ' Ha ha ha ha, yeah they love the gold and silver.'

So the lowly-ranked, some as young as 10, get busted and do some ' youth detention .' They are closer to earning a patch, and a family for life. Then the legend told me about one of his broes in the top level, whose fingerprints were found on one of the stolen cars from a ram raid. So he got charged for stealing it. Which he had.

' Oh man, his lawyer was good. He's asking them how long the fingerprints had been there,like was there a date, and before or after the vehicle had been stolen. And he's confusing them all and my bro' walked free ! '

Fortunately they don't do rammies in our awesome Otahuhu. It's the homeland and gets protected.

Our awesome Otahuhu also contains many law-abiding citizens who don't bother with some of NZ's serious problems.

'Twas a sunny Sunday at the Wat Lao Buddharam's July festival last year, but there was much darkness in the nation. I randomly polled 10 Thai or Laos ladies, and not one was aware that last night the All Blacks had been beaten by Ireland on home soil for the first-time ever !

In their blissful ignorance, not a single Buddha babe even knew what the name ' Ian Foster ' meant to the suffering nation either.

I thought I'd dealt with all the cowards and liars in the ' Astrological Hall of Shame ' down on April 10.

I forgot about the sick bastards who cringe under the banner of NZ Skeptics Society:

"Three New Zealanders are up for a $100,000 prize if they can prove the powers they’re profiting from.

A self-described psychic, a long-range weather forecaster and a naturopathic sleep specialist are being challenged to have their abilities independently tested. If their claims are correct, they win the money.

So far, none of the trio have agreed to take part in the offer, says NZ Skeptics Society chairperson Craig Shearer.

'If you can demonstrate your abilities work, then why wouldn’t you want to do that?'"

The last line makes sense. So you just keep on reading below. If necessary, editors like Doug Golightly ( Truth ) and Bob Lovett ( Friday Flash ) could be subpoenaed to testify, if the published word is not acceptable.

This amazing website's provider, Hostgator, would verify the originality of the sensational prophecies.

After beginning serious Astrological study in 1981, I am convinced that our destinies are planned.

Hundreds of phenomenal prophecies have been made and it was no easy task selecting the greatest:

' And the final leg in November. Especially 7, the first Tuesday, Melbourne Cup day to racegoers. Don’t matter whether W P Hillis is at Flemington, Hanging Rock or back home somewhere, he will be buzzing.

Hopefully he lines up, to get us a nice win on November 7, 2017. And set a new world record for long-range racetipping. '

On November 7, 2017, trainer W P Hillis had one runner---Watch This Space, who won the open 1600 metres handicap at Ellerslie and paid $9.80 for the win !

' I'll be surprised if punters don't make a fortune backing runners from Stephen Autridge's stable on February 6, July 23 and November 28 next year. '

Trainer S R Autridge did not have runners on the first two dates but his only starter on November 28,1993, Matsqui, won and returned a $22.65 win dividend !

Warning host Murray Deaker ONZM and a nation of listeners that probable next All Blacks coach Graham Henry was a big risk for the next Rugby World Cup year ( 2007 ) because of disastrous late year Pluto-Moon and Uranus-Sun reversals. ( Truth published same a few weeks later. )

In October 2007, G Henry's All Blacks had their worst-ever RWC, getting dumped in a quarter-final by France !

TRUTH, April 29, 1994: In predicting a return to form for controversial cricketer Martin Crowe:

" In fact if Crowe were a jockey I'd be backing his mounts on Tuesday, February 14,1995.

That's the sort of day that the administration jokers should mark down for a one-day international against the Aussies."

On February 14, 1995, Crowe played in a Shell Trophy match for Wellington and made 193 not out !

TV3 January 1, 2013, when the presenter announced that " Mike Hesson might well be the man after all to lead the Black Caps back to mid-ranking mediocrity."

The Astrologer's verdict: “ Mike Hesson's got a lot of improvement on his predecessor. He's got all these nice Uranus buzzes, April, September and February 014.”

Hesson lasted 6 years. His successes included: New Zealand's first World Cup final appearance in 2015, alongside an unprecedented seven successive undefeated test series (2013-2015) and a record-equalling 13 undefeated tests at home (2012-2016) occurred under his watch. Those " nice Uranus buzzes " for February 2014 included the Black Caps slaughtering India at home in tests and ODI matches.

" I'm not optimistic about the Kiwis winning the next league test against Australia, but I hope like Donald I'm wrong. Next Wednesday's a special for Mal Meninga and a bummer for Jarrod McCracken.

" I'll be relaying this prognosis to coach Bob Bailey so don't be surprised if the wonder centre is subbed early in the game."

After 26 minutes Jarrod McCracken was sent from the field after making an innocent attempt to stop a brawl !

" Maybe the bet of the century tag could be placed on whoever is playing the Brisbane Broncos on May 30 or 31 next year.Those days have coach Wayne Bennett suffering the painful Saturn-Neptune square that harassed Auckland coach Graham Henry when his team got knocked off by Counties."

On May 31, 1997 the lowly Hunter Mariners upset the Broncos 24-6, with a head-to-head bet returning $4.20 on the New Zealand TAB !

www.donmurrayastrologer.com,January 2, 2020, when the Astrology of Australia's bushfire crisis was being analysed, ending with

' There could be a slight easing of Australia's woes after the Saturn-Ascendant attack finished on January 1, but there's another very serious phase for Aussie with Saturn sitting on the midheaven point ( Capricorn 24.23 ) in the week or 2 before January 26.

Even more destructive for Australia, with revolutionary Pluto supervising massive and difficult changes when he sits on that crucial point in the next 2 years.

With February, June, December being very serious months for Australia in 2020, and September and October of 2021....'

Covid-19 arrived in ' February ' and Australia officially went into recession in ' June ' . With record numbers of Covid-19 cases for Australia in ' September and October of 2021 ' before the improvement started.

'At least until after November, 2017. At present Hazza’s got Uranus attacking his Venus until early next year, with Pluto causing the setbacks and love life problems through 2016 and 2017 !

There could not be a worse time to enter holy matrimony than under a Pluto-Venus block, which itself has supervised many relationship disasters and separations. With a total opposite through 2018 and 2019, when Pluto is positively enhancing his Moon.

Said Moon is placed in the 4^th house that governs home and family matters, and ruling the 7^th that supervises marriage and partnerships.

I’d love to know what odds the bookmakers are offering on Prince Hazza becoming a husband and father in 2018-2019 '

A reasonably phenomenal prophesy, considering Harry got married in May 2018 and became a father 12 months later !

But it provided so much laughter. There was its own unplanned pregnancy at age 37. Then the Brazilian nanny got a belly full of arms and legs as well.

Then the January 2022 wedding got cancelled, after the dirty bitch got a phone call from a high-ranking cop about ' sins of the partner.'

' Jacinda Ardern has brushed off rumours surrounding her partner Clarke Gayford and their nanny which emerged earlier this year.

The Prime Minister was asked about the untrue claims while appearing on The Edge radio show with Dom, Meg and Randell on Thursday.

"A couple of months ago there were heinous rumours going around about you and Clarke. Everyone was saying he got the nanny knocked up. Did you hear about that?" Dom Harvey asked.

How did Harvey know that the rumours were ' heinous ' and the claims ' untrue ' ? Rather strangely Harvey never asked for confirmation that Clarkie never got the nanny pregnant. And Ardern never actually said the rumours weren't true, did she ?

Harvey made his own piece of history with an appearance in the November 2020 Annual Prophecies:

Struggling broadcaster in for massive personal reconstruction from Uranus-Sun and Pluto-Jupiter attacks. June to Oct very crucial.'

In July 2021, Harvey's ' massive personal reconstruction ' included suddenly resigning from radio after 20 years ! There has been considerable mystery around the resignation. With a few clues if you google search ' Dom Harvey Reddit '

But at the end of the day, nothing could match this. During the Womens' RWC last October. Ardern was obviously out of its tree on something, with 99%+ of the Facebook comments in total agreement.

Last year we noted the crazy planet in Taurus zooming over key positions, and causing disruption for notables like Andrew Little, Ian Foster, Stacey Jones and Aussie Lloyd Williams etc. Harness racing legend Mark Purdon had Uranus over his Sun during his brief and mysterious retirement.

A 10 year-old named Amanda has been experiencing Uranus over her Midheaven point recently. Late in 2021 her grandmother, who has custody, wisely decided to get Amanda analysed Astrologically and phoned the other day with some amazing feedback.

Noting that Amanda would be subject to ' major career and lifestyle changes ' in April 2023, courtesy of Uranian chaos. On March 31 she started at a new school that's 30 minutes away from the old one.

The sort of kid who ain't gonna need ' counselling ' and fortunately there are some very switched on parents and caregivers. Plenty of great feedback, as per a mother who recently got an update on her 18 year-old daughter's massive changes and new beginnings in 2023.

Then with a ' listen to this ! ' out came the phone and she replayed part of the daughter's original analysis at age 12. And the strong indicators of a career in health or medicine. The new beginnings in 2023 had her shifting to Sydney to study medicine !

Very noteworthy that 10 year-old Amanda's Uranus-midheaven phase is the identical aspect of disruption affecting 76 year-old Donald Trump next year. Yes, he'll be experiencing the zoom between May 2024 and March 2025. Also Uranus attacking Trumpy's Mars between July 024 and May 025.

Trump's been indicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records and those Uranus attacks won't help his bid for freedom. Very notably mid-2025 has him suffering severe Pluto--Venus personal amendments and July's extremely difficult midheaven--Pluto progression. Indicating time in some kind of institution and a whole new bunch of classmates, like Amanda in April 023.

Pastor Brian Tamaki blamed the recent spate of destructive flooding on New Zealanders watching too much porn.

Hilarious, but more likely the Gods of Karma punishing the great unwashed for worshipping false idols.As well as failing to recognise the wonders of Marijuana and Astrology.

The liars and cowards who've ignored the great science are a major reason for so many parts of NZ experiencing so much despair:

Newstalk ZB veteran, with the unbelievable lie on air in November 2016. When claiming he'd received a letter from a listener. who reckoned that hardly any of my predictions with Murray Deaker OMNZ ever came true. Truly sick, when Deaker used to rave about the great predictions for 18 years !

Ironically during the Deaker era I would occasionally ring Leighton Smith on the studio line with pieces of interest and one day some 16--17 years earlier he wondered on air about the future of Sydney racing great Gai Waterhouse, who trained a horse for him.

I had no time of birth for Gai, so big-noter Smith got his PA to ring her office to find Gai's mum's number and then he rang her for the ' 2 a.m ' arrival time while a nation of listeners waited.

Raved and raved about his ' Astrologer extraordinaire ' for 18 years. Only for one hour a year, though, and mainly because it was a fixture on his producer's list. But Deaks got very shitty after ignoring the warnings about Graham Henry for 2007. He went and wrote a book on Henry's mighty All Blacks, but getting upset by France in the quarterfinal wasn't supposed to be the last chapter ! He'd hoped to trump me, for a change, but it didn't happen.

A television big name who was very impressed with her incredible Astrological enlightenment and next day shouted the same for her hairdresser. Then 6 weeks later phoned me from Sydney at 6 a.m ( their time ) one Monday, requesting a read-out of one of her Astrological traits so her friends could listen on the speakerphone. Later Dawson started a public campaign to help others with their ' depression,' but got very nasty at the suggestion she use her own Astrological experience. Unbelievably nasty, in fact.

Made very favourable comments, and quoted his mother about a successful prediction I'd made on sports star Matthew Ridge when we appeared on Sportscafe in August 1997. Instead of thinking ' this guy knows his shit, maybe he might be able to help with my own ' depression, ' Kirwanker has tried in vain to invent his own cures !

Back in December 2013, I wondered if Mikey might consider all the incredible Astrological factors around his well-known ' depression ' and tweeted him a suggestion. Firstly King wanted to know if Astrology had “ made you into a millionaire, bro ? ” Strange question. When he realised it was a serious matter, and was offered assistance, King got extremely vicious: " What a dickhead thing to say Don. You don't know me mate, what makes u think I'm depressed? "

Veteran racing commentator who supervised a major breakthrough in horse racing---2 Astrologically-calculated ' Certainties ' successfully declared at Ellerslie Racecourse in 1995 and 96 ! The steeplechase Certainty 3.5 weeks in advance paid $7.80, but instead of taking this phenomenon to the world, the whitewashed Maori stayed loyal to his head-in-the-sand horsie tragics. Whence the unbelievably disastrous current state of the sunset industry.

Veteran broadcaster who lied viciously in a Sunday News column about Astrologers and fortune tellers--- just a few months after an amazing enlightenment here, when her dysfunctional childhood etc was accurately analysed. She was told ' No ' to ever having children, then wasted a decade trying to get pregnant and got very fat and ' depressed ' from fertility drugs before finally giving up !

This renowned hater of Astrology was forced to interview me on Newstalk ZB after the 2007 Rugby World Cup disaster, forecast 4 years earlier. Holmo was wriggling and squirming trying to keep the interview brief, but I dragged it out. Eventually with him finally admitting to great happiness under awesome Pluto trines in 1991, that supervised his marriage and becoming a father.

Sunday Star-Times sports editor contacted me for advice some 13 years ago with:' Any assistance for those of us born Feb 24 ?? FYI, if you want to enter me in your database ( in case I ever become famous ) It's Feb 24, 1963, 7 am Palmerston North.' But he went negative at the suggestion of a weekly column in his own publication !

Veteran Herald journo ( of around 45 years ) warned of a massive life change which coincided with her losing a breast to cancer. Rather than investigate the possibility of early detection, Phare recoiled savagely with ' You didn't predict the birth of my son ! ' I admitted the error, simply because he was born 7 years before I obtained his mother's date of birth !

The meaning of life is to help your fellow man. Warnings of danger and disasters are paramount,and being prepared. Astrology has no equal here, so it's very unfortunate when the good work is spoiled by the cowards and liars above.

Rather ironic,too, that Kirwan, King, Simon, Dawson, Feeney, Holmes and Donaldson had all been subject to very successful, public predictions !

There are many reasons why the mainstream media have come to despise Astrology.

It must be a serious matter, as others have obviously been thoughting as well !

Major off-year for rugby player with Pluto-Mars and Saturn-Sun attacks. April, Aug, Jan 024 notable.'

There's always plenty of amusement in the compost heap known as ' NZ horse racing.'

Like the recent optimism over the NZ TAB's new partner, who's apparently promising zillions for infrastructure and carnivals. But you have to wonder, what is suddenly going to make normal humans want to bet on boring old, personality-deficient NZ horse racing ?

Remember that NZ racing is desperate. They are borrowing $1 million per month to sustain promised stake levels for the last 8 months of the current season. With profits down 9% on last season and operating expenses up an incredible 13% !

The deal with Entain is apparently awaiting ministerial ratification. You gotta wonder if the minister of racing knows about this:

' A new probe by the Australian anti-money laundering watchdog is the latest international investigation to envelop Ladbrokes owner Entain, jeopardising its big push for a lucrative TAB licence in Western Australia.

The Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) said it had begun an “enforcement investigation” into the multinational gambling giant on Monday, which comes with the prospect of a huge $22 million fine and a series of other severe regulatory interventions to pull entities into line.

It raises doubts about Entain’s compliance with anti-money laundering and counterterrorism financing laws, and follows a $29 million fine the London-listed company paid the UK Gambling Commission for similar breaches.

“Entain Australia ... can confirm that it has been notified by [AUSTRAC] that it has conducted a standard assessment of Entain
Australia’s historical Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing (‘AML’ and ‘CTF’) policies and procedures,” Entain said.

“Entain Australia notes AUSTRAC’s decision and is co-operating with the investigation which relates to the historical period from July 2016 to June 2020.”

Lest we not forget that Entain's owner made his fortune from online porn and gambling. It's ' any port in a storm ' for NZ racing considering their horrific financial situation, probably with a few backhanders involved...

Around 30 recently-dumped Mediaworks employees are gazing into the bottom of a glass. Maybe contemplating the P pipe or even razor blades. Their substitute family is no longer after their radio station Today FM suddenly got switched off last week.

Today FM had been carefully planned, with much ' top talent ' selected, and it was gonna take the talkback world by storm, but only lasted for a year. Doomed, of course, after one of the superstars debuted in the November 2021 Annual Prophecies here !

Veteran broadcaster behaving erratically from Uranus-Mars friction. Needs monitoring in May, June, Nov, Dec with serious Saturn restrictions in Feb, March 023.'

The recently resigned ' talk manager ' was Dallas Gurney, a proven, narrow-minded arsehole.

Back in February 2011, Gurney was station manager for Newstalk ZB, and still reluctant to give Astrology more than the annual hour. This was the show that Murray Deaker ONZM raved about for 18 years and introduced thousands to the wonders of the world's oldest science.

15 minutes after departing the station I'd be home to a dozen messages on the answerphone. One Monday after a Sunday show my 0900 number received 67 calls, so it was only natural to suggest some guidance for those devastated by the Christchurch earthquake.

Gurney went mental: ' I've been to Christchurch, I know what it's like down there. The last thing they'd want is someone predicting another earthquake ! '

A total dickhead ! Gurney had obviously never listened to the Astrological magnificence with Deaker. I tried to explain it, how the world's oldest science can solve important decisions using birth charts and give people hope in torturous times.

Gurney did realise, of course, that his ' brand ' needed protecting, for so often Astrology made his know-all superstars like Deaker, Paul Holmes, Pete Montgomery and Leighton Smith etc look like retards.

There had been very little feedback from the January 2011 Deaker show, so with pig ignorant Gurney's apathy it was time to say ' Fuck Newstalk ZB. ' While grateful for them providing me with such a major earn. In 2012 the Gods of Karma gifted me a 5-minutes weekly gig with an Auckland-based Indian radio station that lasted for 7-8 years.

Some very successful New Year predictions had been made on Mediaworks' TV3, even if they would ban ' bad year ' predictions for the All Blacks and Team NZ. Major advertisers started getting the shits about 10 years ago, and the January 1 Astrologer phase ended.

Sad to think of all the good humans who deserved to be assisted through the carnage of the Covid era. And the recent wrath of God's washing machine, with many of those victims obviously subject to the same Uranian and Saturnine disruptions that have been hampering Mark Richardson.

Poor NZ. In great need of Astrological wisdom, as the nation heads towards a serious recession. There'll be many more media scabs getting the boot and the country is still 6 months away from the big problems !

We've revealed some of the ugliest carpet jobs in the rapidly decomposing NZ racing industry.

None more brutal than the pack rape of a 14 year-old girl by a dozen stablehands/jockeys in Matamata in early 1975. With information received from an Astrological client who had been one of the victim's schoolmates.

Same female client recently encountered ' Sister Kathleen ' at a funeral. The catholic teacher from Matamata, who remembered well her comforting the victim, Teresa, and her family. And the names of the O' Sullivan, Moroney and Gillies etc youths who were involved.

Recently I was contacted by an ex-apprentice jockey with plenty of knowledge:

' The storyline about the rape. It happened at Alan Robinson's stable on Beatty St. The main perpetrator was never charged, in fact he took her home rapt in a blanket to cover his arse, his mates copted it.'

Of course the ' main perpetrator ' was never charged, after his father put $15K into a trust fund for red-headed Teresa. The regional ex-cop-racecourse inspector brokered a deal with the Matamata police and the matter was swept under the carpet to protect some noble names.

Except for a secret inquiry, with 3 of the rapist youths being blacklisted from working in stables.' I remember it vividly because those 3 were mates of mine, I was there Don,' stated the ex-apprentice.

Time to speak with the racecourse inspector, who normally has a very good memory. Not this one, he denied all knowledge while aware of the high-profile names, then tried to claim that his Waikato replacement must have been there ( in 1975 ) !

Yet another lie. The Waikato replacement didn't shift down until 1977. He had been head of the Auckland drug squad in April 1976 when I was charged for possessing 3 cannabis joints !

Then a very prominent Matamata jockey of the 1970s skyped me from the Philippines with more information on the pack rape. And that racecourse inspector : ' One day he gave a few of us ( jockeys ) a ride up to Avondale, and started telling us all about his life in the police force in Auckland. When they used to demand free roots at the illegal massage parlours instead of arresting them.'

I also told him about that racecourse inspector and his long-standing affair with a married woman at NZ Racing Conference. Also his getting sprung sneaking out of the hotel room of a high-profile, married woman jockey by former All Blacks first-five Adrian Clarke !

Time to speak with a possible associate of ' Sister Kathleen '-----my teacher at Ruawai Primary School in 1966. He was a devout catholic who was a real horse racing enthusiast and soon learnt that one of the era's champions, Tatua, was being trained by my father's first cousin, Wally J Pratt. I became an automatic ' teacher's pet.'

I've kept in touch with this man over the years and remember his recall of a couple of happy phases when he was teaching in the racing-dominated Matamata region. Yes, at age 92 he has fond memories of Sister Kathleen and also, vague and not fond memories of the 14 year-old Teresa event and some high-profile catholic names....

Racing jurisdictions the world over are infamous for shoving their sexual harassment scandals under the carpet. Melbourne cops are doing some historic investigation:

' Prominent racehorse trainer Gerald Ryan is the subject of a fresh police investigation into allegations he sexually assaulted a string of young jockeys and stablehands more than 25 years ago.

Ryan, who has won training premierships in Brisbane and is now based at Rosehill Gardens in Sydney, has been plagued by serious misconduct accusations for decades, but has never been charged by police or sanctioned by racing authorities.'

More like 35 years ago, when apprentice Jamie Evans woke from a lift home from the races to find 33 year-old jockey Ryan performing oral sex upon him in a Mordialloc car park. Various other apprentice jockeys have been victims when G Ryan became a trainer and their mentor.

Matamata had a ' Dave ' good at carpet jobs like ' Melbourne Dave ' Moodie. A high-profile breeder and former Racing Victoria chairman, David Moodie was heavily involved in the protection of Gerald Ryan for the sake of squeaky cleanliness.

Lest we never forget the quote NZ’s chief racecourse inspector John McKenzie gave me for a Truth article in early 1996. About the need to ' protect our rising stars ' from charges of domestic and industrial violence !

9 years later McKenzie was a guest at a licensed trainer's wedding, and 2 months after that had to charge him with misconduct !

' Prince Harry is facing the possibility of deportation from the US amid renewed scrutiny over his visa application.

Conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation confirmed to News Corp Australia that it had launched a legal dispute with US officials over the State Department’s refusal to release details of Harry’s visa application following his drug use revelations.'

Of course, residential matters featured in the appearance in last November's Annual Prophecies, www.donmurrayastrologer.com !

Home and family chaos with Uranus atop his Moon in June, Nov and April. Saturn-Mercury post-marital issues in April, Aug and Jan 024. '

' Harry and Meghan evicted from Frogmore Cottage by King Charles, Prince Andrew may move in '

Very confused and weakened from difficult Sun-Neptune progressions, with March and May noteworthy. Difficult personal changes around August.'

And what about the head of the very angry ' broil ' fam ? His last November appearance could have been created just minutes after he arrived 74 years beforehand:

Major reversals in family matters from Uranus-Sun and Pluto-Moon attacks. April, July, Oct crucial, with Jan, Aug and Dec of 024 very serious. '

Chas is having a ponder: If Harry gets deported from the USA, they'll probably bloody well come back here to live. But it wouldn't be ' they ' if I can pull some strings and get Meghan deported from England, would it ?

Footnote: ' twas around 6 years ago that Meghan was first analysed Astrologically and instantly dumped in the Difficult Bitch Bin. Courtesy of her possessing the depression classic, energetic Mars imprisoned in secretive House 12. Along with many legendary drama queens, and many horrific relationship bust-ups.

NZ-born possessors of ' Mars in the 12th ' include Nicky Watson, Charlotte Dawson and Jayjay Feeney. Foreigners include Nicole Kidman, Victoria Beckham, Beyonce, Mariah Carey, Yoko Ono, Adele, Pippa Middleton,Paris Jackson, Britney Spears and Kim Kardashian !

Don't fool yourselves. Astrology is amazing---- and the only system that's got anything right in the last 3 chaotic years !

We'd be close to 100% correct with amazing prophecies on cricketers since the epics commenced in Truthsport 29 years ago.

On persons named M Crowe, G Howarth, G Turner, D Nash, S Fleming, M Clarke, M S Dhoni, J Wright, and M Hesson etc. Add the recent pearls on V Kohli, K Williamson and B McCullum and you can only laugh at an ignorant universe.

The Blacks Caps' recent 3 straight wins ' around April ' have promoted their coach, after his performance in last November's Annual Prophecies:

Many positives for cricket coach from Uranus around April. Thereafter Neptune-Mercury confusion with May, June, Nov difficult from Uranus-Venus attack.'

Obviously the rave reviews will not continue. Later in the year I will be reminding the sceptics that the coach cannot be blamed for being indecisive when Uranus and Neptune are wreaking their havoc.

Later in the year I will also be reminding everybody about the late 2023 recession first predicted here around 18 months ago. It's still 6 months away from the peak, even with so many ' heartbreaking ' headlines in the mainscream media already this year !

The housing market has gone quiet, triggering the biggest sales slump in nearly 40 years.

Obviously there shall be many other humans ' being indecisive when Uranus and Neptune are wreaking their havoc.'

It's a shame that so many have to learn about Astrology the hard way. Although so many still do not learn, or even want to learn. It's okay to mock those retards.

Late last year I started considering some notable Rugby League personnel with the 2025 World Cup in mind.

One name jumped out of the files---the great Queenslander Wayne Bennett, who'll be in his 76th year then. Among the great man's trophies are 7 NRL/ARL Grand Final wins and 3 x World Club challenges. He was also involved in one of the all-time great prophecies:

" Maybe the bet of the century tag could be placed on whoever is playing the Brisbane Broncos on May 30 or 31 next year. Those days have coach Wayne Bennett suffering the painful Saturn-Neptune square that harassed Auckland coach Graham Henry when his team got knocked off by Counties."

On May 31, 1997 the lowly, only-season Super League franchise Hunter Mariners upset the Broncos 24-6, with a head-to-head bet returning $4.20 on the New Zealand TAB !

More recently he appeared in the November 2019 Annual Prophecies here, when his ' awesome Uranus-Sun and Saturn-Moon trines ' supervised a State of Origin series triumph. Fast forward to 2025 when Mr W Bennett shall be under very positive Pluto--Mars and Uranus--Mercury trines !

But hang on a second. Mr Bennett's also got Pluto trining his Mars between April next year and December 2025. And he's coaching the first-season Redcliffe Dolphins, currently 3-3 and equal table toppers in the NRL premiership.

I have much respect for Mr Bennett, having once congratulated him on ' making one of the greatest philosophies in history.' Which was ?

' You're only a failure when you start blaming other people. ' The great man almost gave a rare grin.

As a keen supporter of Mate Ma'a Tonga, whose coach Kristian Woolf is assisting Mr Bennett, I'm a Dolphins fan. Especially with Tongans Niu, Katoa, Lee and Kaufusi usually in the run-on side. But sentiment and Astrological magnificence have to be separated.

There's a frustrating Neptune-Mars phase for Mr Bennett, fortunately at the right time in a footy season. Some health issues in November and December this year, when there aren't any games. Still not an omen for Grand Final 2023 success.

But very overruled by a powerful Mercury positive around November 2025. With the final leg of that powerful Pluto around December 2025, as well, there will be some major high in the preceding months---like an early October NRL Grand Final win ?

For all his greatness, W Bennett hasn't been a head coach winner of the Rugby League World Cup. But he was assistant for the NZ Kiwis under head coach Steve Kearney when they took the world title in 2008.

A perfect scenario for us Tongan fans would be K Woolf hiring W Bennett as his assistant for Mate Ma'a Tonga at the 2025 RLWC,with a Grand Final in November !

If he didn't have his own business, he was the member of a strong trade union. He could easily own a home and support a wife and 3 or 4 children.

Back in January 2008 we previewed the revolution that would drastically change the male role and

' will be helping to put many old traditions to death when Pluto commences his stay in conservative Capricorn in March ( 2008 ).
Old traditions like newspapers, real estate and car sales will be changing drastically courtesy of the internet generation. It's easy to see a further weakening of governments because Pluto's destruction here will root out a lot more corruption and inefficiency.
But the scary piece relates to the massively changing role of the father figure, as the family unit slowly disappears and marriage becomes just another episode in life's great soap opera for many.
Naturally there will be a massive increase in the numbers of rudderless young men lacking direction, with no-one to guide and teach them in time-honoured Kiwi male tradition how to drink beer properly and the correct way to watch a rugby game.
Woman have shown they can do just about anything except beat the Melbourne Storm on a league field. They can be chief executives and prime ministers, and binge drink and manufacture P with the best of them.
A time of even more power to the woman ? Most households headed by a solo mother . '

Now the ' bread winner ' is more of a slave. Much less chance of owning a business and a home, when a shift worker on a short-term contract and often working weekends without penal rates.

Parenting has been replaced by ' pair renting ' whereby couples lease children from the government and do what they are told. Dad has far less influence on the kids and is little more than an ATM now. Many males have become very dependent on sports teams and need emotional support from mentally-ill broadcasters.

While violent crimes involving teenage males have skyrocketed, with so many youthful murderers in a once proud nation.

Women have invaded the male space, too, with their rugby and league matches becoming dangerously popular. Transgender athletes have also arrived…

Great men like Snowden, Assange and Dotcom etc have exposed unbelievable corruption in governments, with a favourite being Hillary Clinton's knowledge of the devastating 2011 Christchurch earthquake 5 hours beforehand !

Massive changes in ' real estate ' highlights the ' own home ' problems, and traditional ' newspapers ' are either propaganda machines or on death row.

Pluto checks out Aquarius between March and June then returns to say all his farewells in Capricorn. Before finally leaving in November 2024, then moving into Aquarius to start producing a generation of mindless, seriously controlled zombies until 2044.

It's easier to understand the weird world when you know what's really happening.

A police report containing “high-level intelligence” on ram raids reveals 79 youth offenders are thought to be “of concern”, as they’re being raised in an environment of “habitual and normalised offending”.

Police found there were 5955 proceedings against 3541 youths aged between 14-17 between February 1, 2022 and July 31, 2022. The highest number of proceedings per person was 17.

A group of six hammer-wielding youths - some as young as just 10 years old - busted into a liquor store during school hours and allegedly raided the shop in a frightening incident that has shocked the East Auckland community.

There's nothing like Astrological magnificence for lifting depressed humans out of the doldrums.

Consider the champion Indian cricketer, who featured in the November 2021 Annual Prophecies:

Unbelievable difficulties for the gun cricketer from Neptune-Moon and Pluto-Mercury attacks. Feb, March, April, June, Sept and Dec crucial months.'

V Kohli has experienced ' unbelievable difficulties ' before, on a very unsuccessful tour to NZ. During my time on the Auckland-based, Indian radio station Humm Fm, cricket was a very popular subject. With co-presenter Ms Pooja Kumar questioning a 2014 prediction. The reply was:

' Pooja, there's as much chance of India winning the series as there is of you playing in the Warriors' front row on Saturday night.' The Black Caps beat India 4--0.

Neptune-Moon stress of last 2 years ends in Feb. Thereafter awesome April and May from Uranus-Jupiter and Pluto-Mars positives.'

After ' Feb ' there was March 12, when V Kohli hit a wonderful century. His 28th, ending a 1206-day drought since his last test hundred !

Massive upheavals for gun cricketer from Uranus-Sun, Uranus-Mars and Pluto-Jupiter attacks. Feb, May, June, Nov, Dec crucial, also Feb, March 023.'

His injury and form horrors of last year are well known. 6 months ago many wondered if K Williamson would ever rediscover his best, but the terribles were always gonna end in ' Feb or March 023 ' courtesy of an unknown birth time.

Obviously K Williamson is a morning baby, with the turmoil finishing in ' Feb. ' Starting Feb 24, 3 test matches for him have brought 2 centuries and a double century !

We're always laughing about the deserved rock-bottoms the rapidly decomposing racing industry keeps finding.

NZTR have been dipping into the reserves to the tune of $1 million for each of the current season's last 8 months----just to keep stake monies at their promised levels. And then what ?

Their only saviour is the Mr Whippy van. Not the musical ice cream vendor, but the judicial system van, which suspends and fines jockeys for on-track offences. So named because of his affinity with the whip, a major earner for him.

Example: Mr Whippy hummed his way into the Premier meeting at Te Rapa last Saturday and left with a heavy cash register. Most of the penalties were for excessive use of the whip. For which T Mitchell received 5 and 6 riding-day suspensions in separate incidents and J Bayliss 11 days.

Mr Whippy is not a fan of suspensions. He'll be losing Mitchell and Bayliss' custom for a few weeks, but was happier that they got fined as well. Mitchell's ' spend ' was $250 and $300 in separate cases. Bayliss the same, $500 and another $2000 fine.

Also J Doyle, L Satherley and J Riddell each copped $500 fines for whip offences.M McNab got fined $2000 for careless riding. and 9 riding days suspension.

Same day down at Trentham, but that Mr Whippy wasn't chippy and skippy--not a single fine ! Loses another customer, too, with 2 separate suspensions of 6 and 8 riding days for N Parmar for excessive whip use. And another 10 days for careless riding !

Hark back to March 9, a dull Thursday meeting at Riccarton. One rider was suspended for excessive whip use, and another 6 got fined a total of $2150, including Tayla Mitchell again, $500 !

The abysmal riding standards of today are easily contrasted with the golden era of NZ racing. When you are laughing on Facebook with boyhood jockey-heroes, who you'd meet as a journo in the 1970s. And plenty of contemporaries, with unanimous agreement about the horrific decline, and how we were the lucky bastards

When the northern jockeys' room always contained 2 or 3 jockeys who'd won a Melbourne Cup and a separate pair who'd won the W S Cox Plate. These days ?

NZ racing is renowned for ' protecting our rising stars ' and the big owners and breeders insist on fines instead of suspensions. Especially with the few competent jockeys in mind for their ' Premier ' meetings.

Mr Whippy himself was in total agreement with the fat cats: ' Yeah, they're not patronising my business when they're suspended.'

Fear not. The NZTR chairman is ' Bad Karma Cameron ' George. Their profits may be down 9% and operating expenses up by 13% for the season, but the Pisces Dragon will have a master dream.

A.k.a ' Kiss of death Cameron, ' this bloke loves giving interviews and imagining his own importance. Confidently assured an interviewer some 6--7 years ago that ' we ( NZ Warriors ) are very close to a premiership.' In the interim, the highly dysfunctional NRL team CEOd by him has managed to scrape into the final 8 only once !

The Pisces Dragon is defined as ' the ultimate dreamer ' of the 144 East+West Astrology combinations. The new business plan shall be:

' The big owners and breeders are right. Stop suspending the jockeys and fine them instead. With a target of $250K a week from Mr Whippy to cancel out the $1million we're borrowing every month ! '

Does it ever. It makes people very angry, primarily because no argument can be entered into.

The sick, modern media system encourages anger and argument. It is part of the ' divide and rule ' principle. The many-headed monster of the pit has just learned to pick holes and get angry.

Here the predictions are either right or wrong. Usually right, around 95% but that won't stop the snivelling, scowling sceptics from desperately seeking a ' wrong. '

As we remember one of history's greatest prophecies in the pre-Murray era. On this very day 2067 years ago, Roman emperor Julius Caesar was stabbed to death in the senate by his friends Brutus and Cassius.

A week earlier, a Soothsayer had warned Caesar to ' Beware the Ides ( 15th ) of March ! ' 44 years later over in Bethlehem, 3 wise men/Astrologers correctly forecast the arrival of that rare specimen, who inspired the best-seller known as The Holy Bible.

' A study of Roman history shows that the ancient Romans had a very complicated relationship with astrology. While on one hand, the Roman emperors discouraged astrology, on the other hand they shrewdly used it as a political tool. In a political climate with ruthless leaders, even astrology was an excellent weapon. In fact, one cannot separate Roman history from astrological allegories and backstories. '

Rather notably the father of modern medicine, Hippocrates of Greece, was advocating the use of Astrology some 400 years before that event in Bethlehem ! Emperor Augustus used Astrology to accurately forecast his month of death.

Rulers everywhere have discouraged this amazing science over the centuries. Fortunately there are rebels and readers who've asked questions and these people have been able to keep the amazing science alive.

Snivelling, scowling sceptics avoid confrontations these days. They'd be speechless when I rattle off a few of the pearls:

The horse racing certainty 5 years, 4 months and 3 days in advance ? 4 years warning of one of NZ's biggest disasters ( 2007 RWC ) ? the amazing prediction on Australia for the Covid era ? the Martin Crowe epic down on February 15 ? or the stunner of February 24 on Konrad Hurrell ?

New Zealand's predicted major problems of late 2023 are a mere formality now. With plenty more horror headlines, and the handful in control will continue to create a world of cry babies and angry people.

Being a laughter baby is much healthier, and more fun. And what's funnier than a very troubled world totally ignoring the time-honoured system with so much amazing history ?

In the awesome Astrological World, hardly a day goes by with another reminder of its magnificence.

Like the feedback from a client, about the voice-mailed, character analysis of a son I've never seen:

' Rafael Nadal will drop out of the Top-10 rankings for the first time in almost 18 years. The 22 Grand Slam title winner will miss the upcoming American ATP Masters 1000 tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami due to which he will lose some crucial points.

During the Australian Open, Nadal sustained a muscle injury during a second-round match against American player MacKenzie McDonald. According to initial reports, Nadal was expected to return after 6-8 weeks. However, he will now miss the Indian Wells and Miami tournaments, where he made the final last year, and lose the points he earned from his performance. This will result in his drop from the Top-10 rankings. '

Major injury and health issues for the tennis champ with Pluto-Node, Pluto-Moon and Neptune-Mercury attacks. Feb, April, May, July, Sept, Dec crucial.Also Jan, Feb, Aug and Nov 024.'

Undoubtedly there would be many shareholders in NZ's recently created ' Lakes District ' in the Hawkes Bay region suffering similar Pluto and Neptune destruction !

Poor bastards. Such a shame they don't want to be warned, just as ' Rafa ' was.

The 1950s and 60s were amazing times to be a child in NZ. We had very little television, pubs closing at 6 pm and none of this shit:

' Police found there were 5955 proceedings against 3541 youths aged between 14-17 between February 1 2022 and July 31, 2022. The highest number of proceedings per person was 17.'

We had ' little Johnny ' jokes about an idiot who was a dumber, earlier version of Bart Simpson. And the ' little Johnny ' jokes are coming back !

Q: Name the first ' mental health advocate ' in the world to create and promote his own brand of alcohol ?

For the last 10 years he's been Sir John Kirwan-- ' For services to mental health.' Here, just Sir Johnny Wino, or along with ' medication Mikey, ' a co-director of Kirwanking Ltd, a company that promotes ' depression.' Sometimes Little Johnny can also be the National Cry Baby.

Some 5--6 years ago, after several years of rank failures as the Auckland Blues' rugby coach, Little Johnny changed the game plan. His great love of Italy saw him importing his own brand of vino to sell in New Zealand. You can pay $49 for a bottle of Amaro.

Obviously Little Johnny is very passionate about wine. But did he get hangovers confused with the ' depression, ' about which he used to ramble and rave ? Was it the dry retches, Big Ben chiming in his head, or the bird's nest in the mouth that inspired him ?

Next month shall see the 47th anniversary of an arresting officer's great words: ' Nothing to worry about, pal, if they invented alcohol tomorrow that would be illegal as well ( as Cannabis.) ' Even funnier when so many famous ' depression ' sufferers have been renowned for their heavy drinking.

Every day I laugh at those sick NZ Herald headlines. Unless Sir John Kirwan is protesting passionately about the video clips that encourage people to WATCH the crashing and bashing, he is a coward. A nation's morale keeps finding new rock bottoms and the great pretender keeps promoting alcohol, the major sponsor of domestic violence ?

But Little Johnny has a disciple. Scroll to January 25 and the video clip of yet another high-profile ' depression ' sufferer, also making her own wine.

Meaning there could be Little Jayjay and Little Johnny jokes as well !

Back on December 3, 2021 the newly-minted National leader Christopher Luxon was wiped as the future PM.

An exercise that took approximately 20 seconds. From the year dot, ' Lux flakes ' was deemed to suffer the horrific Pluto-Mars attack between March 023 and December 024 !

That's the last thing you'd want when you are.... actually, it's a big negative for everything. Consider some of the predicted Pluto--Mars victims of 2022--- retiring Jockey Leith Innes, humiliated State of Origin coach Brad Fittler and NRL wonder boy Reece Walsh.

Walshy got sprung cheating on the missus, who suddenly rearranged her plans to come to NZ for 2023. So the whizz-kid fullback had to resign from the NZ Warriors to stay in Brisbane near his baby daughter !

Entertainer--heavy meth user Willy de Wit was under Pluto--Mars destruction during his serious stroke in 2016. With NZ harness racing great Mark Purdon also suffering Pluto v Mars during his mysterious, brief retirement in 2020.

Not to forget the ' very frustrating phase ' indicated for the late Charlotte Dawson ' around age 15 ? ' After a giggle there was an answer:

' You know it was around that time I was seriously thinking of ways to kill my stepfather ! '

Actually Luxon could get some advice from his colleague and predecessor Todd Muller, who wisely resigned from being National's leader after only 8 months ! Following his being warned of a destructive Pluto--Mars attack on his near horizon.

So many possibilities for ' Lux flakes ' Lest we not forget that he also owns a Capricorn Moon. Very ambitious, dutiful and responsible, but also renowned for wearing a brave face and hiding dark secrets. Other notable Capricorn Moon possessors include horse racing's mysterious David Ellis, Finland's leader Sanna Marin, champion jockey James McDonald and the baggage-laden Jacinda Ardern.

It might be necessary, though, to strap Luxon to a polygraph and ask about the $500K that USA's Barack Obama received for making a speech when Luxon was CEO of Air NZ.

And with Luxon being a ' christian, ' ask why he doesn't endorse the wonderful Marijuana plant that his creator invented.

Not that it really matters who is in charge, with NZ facing 3 times as many difficult progression aspects this year as it did in 2021.

I'll still be analysing prime minister Hipkins soon to see what he'll be contributing to our amusement parlour in 2023.

Once upon a time Auckland rugby league and union weren't saturated with Polynesian players.

Current Otahuhu league players are stunned when I explain that 60 years ago there wasn't a single Samoan or Tongan in the club's premier team. It was the ' polyunsaturated ' era.

With rugby league season beginning, I was checking some upcoming matches and discovered the misnomer of all time---' Auckland White.'

A rep team for the under-18 girls. And not a single palagi in the run-on side !

Surnames like Masoe, Leauga, Fesolai, Tavita, Keepa, Paea, Sorensen-Mcgee, Kaufusi, Taito, Tau, Suani, Matapo and Finau.

Laughter is a wonderful medicine and NZ's current state of hopelessness is classic.

As well as the incredible methamphetamine problem, especially in the very dysfunctional racing industries. In the last 12 months a total of 14 licenced persons have been disqualified for testing positive to meth in the thoroughbred, harness and greyhound industries !

Most happen when a winning animal returns the positive to meth in post-race testing. The trainer of the offending beast is then visited and invariably follows suit after donating a urine sample.

So many use meth because it departs the system much faster than the preferred, illegal Marijuana. Many jockeys like meth because it keeps their weight down as well. And China man doesn't have a problem with exporting the meth ingredients to NZ either:

' Silly Kiwi spend all his money on meth. Much easier for me to buy house in wonderful country.' The New World Order leaders don't mind either. Having the great unwashed living in fear of the meth epidemic and the associated gang violence helps keep them under control....

And there is no money in peaceful humans bonding over a bong of home-made Marijuana. Eating, communicating, copulating, planning or playing music.

Smoke Marijuana and you could end up like musical legends The Beatles, Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Neil Young, Jimi Hendrix, Donovan Leitch, Elvis Presley, Elton John, Janis Joplin, Bob Marley, Lou Reed, Lewis Armstrong, Willie Nelson or Tommy Chong or great creators Stephen King, Charles Beaudelaire, Lewis Carrol, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Charles Dickens, Athur Conan Doyle, Tim Leary, Robert Louis Stevenson and Jules Verne or entrepreneurs Steve Jobs and Sir Richard Branson or inventors Thomas Edison and Sigmund Freud or world class sportsmen Usain Bolt and Michael Phelps and thousands of other success stories......

It's like the 52% who voted NO to Marijuana in the 2020 NZ referendum were voting YES to methamphetamine !

There is no proof that Marijuana is detrimental to the health. On the contrary there is so much evidence that the plant God made assists mental expansion and creates genius like the many above.

Poor dumb K.I.W.I---Keen Interest Without Intelligence. He/she is gonna need lots of genius to cope with the incredible recession unfolding. Planetary influences indicate late-2023 as NZ's toughest in nearly 80 years........

The English cricket team had NZ's Black Caps on the ropes, and heading for a 2-0 test series win. In spite of the coach's appearance last November:

Major off-year for cricketer with Pluto attacking his Node and Mercury. Feb, March, June, July, Dec notable.'

In a couple of hours on the last day of ' Feb ' it all turned bad for the coach. Prompting headlines like

Black Caps secure ‘unfathomable’ win by one run over England and Black Caps’ greatest test victory. And suddenly B McCullum is coach of the team that's produced one of the 4 biggest chokes in test cricket history !

And it's reasonable to assume there are many land and silt owners in various parts of bedraggled NZ suffering similar Pluto complications to McCullum. Who could have been warned like he was !

It's been14 years since I owned a television. Last year I made great use of Auckland's wonderful, free library service and borrowed 80 books. And I totally agree with this great human, who departed 7 years ago last January:

“ People are so fucking dumb. Nobody reads anymore, nobody goes out and looks and explores the society and culture they were brought up in. People have attention spans of five seconds and as much depth as a glass of water.” --David Bowie

Last week I broke a long-standing record and read a book without stopping. Eclipsing the record of May 1989, after ambling into a second-hand bookshop in Onehunga on laundromat day and a title jumped off the shelf:

166 pages. I took the laundry home and started reading. Including a coffee and snack, it was non-stop and several hours later the washing got some attention.

An hilarious, easy read, of course, with Hayden being one of the Kiwi racing game rogues of Mornington in 1978. With one great tale omitted---10 a.m one sunny Tuesday morning in February and Hayden rocks up while we're sharing a bong at one his relly's houses. ' Haitch ' pleads and pleads with ' siss ' to borrow the Mini Moke, with ' half an hour max, I just gotta drop my dole form at Frankston '

' Siss ' weakened, and there was no sign of Hayden until he phoned from Adelaide ( 794 kms away ) 3 days later....

Last week I went to the opposite end of the behaviour scale and read WHERE I LIVE without stopping. An easy read,too, only 36 pages with 11 authors----12 year-olds named Tafuna, Taito, Schwenke, Lavaka etc from St Mary MacKillop catholic School, Mangere !

Small, simple stories about My Home, My Street and My Community. A book I got from the library after an interesting chat with a very enterprising, 15 year-old Samoan author in the Otahuhu spa. She was an aspiring politician, an Auckland rugby league rep hooker and updated me on the great game's progress in the area I have christened the Chocolate Triangle.

She told me of contemporaries who'd been poached away to join the Canterbury Bulldogs' system. And was aware of NRL great Jason Taumalolo being poached away from Mangere when he was 14. But not aware of the North Queensland Cowboys' talent scout's desperate move to sign Jason, and the 8 pizzas it took to gain Mr Taumalolo's approval ! With Jason's brother being part of the Townsville package, because family is very important.

Then I told her about the greatest inspiration to Polynesian people, whom I accosted at the Mt Albert Grammar century celebrations last September. Plenty of amazing memories, especially with a certain prefect in 1967.

I told him of the cool hat I'd created in 3B art class and was flaunting unlawfully in the quadrangle when the bastard confiscated it. Come the school concert in the Auckland Town Hall 4--5 months later, the prefects' contribution and this same bastard prefect happens to be wearing my hat !

I told of my forgiveness when this prefect became an All Blacks legend, and role model for Polynesians. Sir Bryan Williams stroked his large chin and remembered ' a very cool hat, actually '

Williams' international rugby career lasted from 1970 to 1978 in which he played 113 matches (including 38 international Tests) and scored 66 tries in all matches as an All Black (ten tries in Tests).

' Beegee ' Williams was an inspiration in the 1970s during the ugly racism and prime minister Robert Muldoon's nasty dawn raids. Contemporaries from MAGS were amongst the founders of the Polynesian Panthers who fought to retain their wonderful cultures.

Palagi's perception of the Polynesians really started changing in the 1990s, thanks to great sports persons like Michael Jones, Peter Fatialofa, Jonah Lomu, David Tua and his cousin ' Inga the winger ' Tuigamala etc. Humble persons, most christian and all very focused on the family. The floodgates opened when rugby union turned professional in 1995. Later on, household names like

Valerie Adams, Beatrice Faumuina, Lesley Vainikolo, Joseph Parker, Mark Hunt, Sonny Bill Williams, Ruben Wiki, Roger Tuivasa-Scheck and Jason Taumalolo etc. With the majority of these great persons originating from the Chocolate Triangle which encompasses Otahuhu, Mangere and Otara.

The New World Order isn't big on family, whence the heavy promotion of television to steer youngsters away from parental influences. There has been an amazing recent emergence of Tongan and Samoan rugby league players, shunning Aussie or NZ selection for their heritage and realising the dream to buy a house for mum and dad.

The cultureless palagi rulers would prefer to have mum and dad living separately and eventually in a rest home. And everybody worshipping mentally-ill, palagi broadcasters with drug and/or alcohol addictions, horrific marriages and messed up children !
