On March 18, 2025, Google parent Alphabet announced striking a deal to buy cybersecurity startup Wiz for $32 billion in an all-cash transaction, Alphabet’s largest acquisition ever. On this date, Mercury, which signifies deals and announcements, was retrograde as well as under the beams (of the Sun's rays) and moving towards combustion. Venus, too, the planet that signifies money matters, was retrograde, too. In addition, Venus was in detriment and combust (and moving into deeper combustion). Astrologically, a quite inopportune moment to announce an important business deal.

One must note here that Alphabet itself as a holding company was born (incorporated in Delaware) on October 2, 2015, when Mercury was retrograde as well as combust, though moving away from combustion on that occasion. The holding company seems to have done quite well so far, so it is not all doom and gloom if Mercury is retrograde and combust. Alphabet's chart (see below) has a powerful Neptune, in the sign it co-rules, which is also close to the Mars/Jupiter midpoint, giving a very powerful business combination, especially as long as Neptune was comfortable, in Pisces. This Neptune, and the Sun-Venus mutual reception, are powerful elements in its chart.

But now there are a few challenges on the horizon. One, the coming solar eclipse on March 29, 2025, may test it, given that the eclipse will quite tightly oppose the "natal" Sun in Alphabet's chart. The test for Alphabet may come probably in late April 2026, when the eclipse degree will get activated, rather than in March-April 2025. (April 2026 shall, anyway, be a particularly challenging month on many counts for the world, as I have already noted on my Critical Dates page.)

Two, Neptune, at the end of March 2025, will move from Pisces into Aries, a sign where Neptune is not at all comfortable. Neptune plays a significant part in business success, and in Alphabet's chart, it is quite prominent. When transit Neptune moves to Aries, that strength will get reduced significantly (or even "hurt" in a way).

Note that Alphabet's "natal" chart has a loose, and difficult, Saturn-Moon opposition, which is more worrying now given that Neptune and Saturn make a conjunction during 2025-2026 in the early degrees of Aries. (The conjunction would also trine Alphabet's "natal" Saturn.)

Alphabet thus seems destined for a difficult 2025-2026. Are these regulatory challenges? Will President Trump order Alphabet to break itself up? Or are these more financial and business challenges in the rapidly changing world of rapidly ascending AI rivals such as OpenAI? Knowing the houses of the "natal" chart would help here, but as I do not know the time of incorporation of the firm, I cannot rely on houses in the chart, so this is more difficult to answer.

Finally, coming back to the Alphabet-Wiz deal, while nothing in itself can be predicted just based on retrogrades, one must say that this has started on a shaky ground, given that quite a few of the indicators that signify success in a business deal are not where they should be. How the deal will play out in the future, and even if it goes through, will it turn out to be a profitable deal for Alphabet? One must wait and watch. As an astrologer, the feeling is that it may not play out well for Alphabet.

In general, when you start something important, you must pick a good (right) moment to give it all the initial boost you can: success or failure is not guaranteed by doing so, but you give it the best chance you can. This is called electional astrology (you "elect" a time to start something). Marriages, business contracts, buying a home, starting a trip, starting a business, ... anything important. I myself provide electional astrology services, about which you could read here.

Note: Regularly updated lists of some of my successful predictions in the past can be found here. They include Trump win, South Korea martial law events, Israel's recent successes in military affairs, collapse of governments in Canada and Norway, the fall of several other leaders, several elections correctly called, and numerous earthquakes and other natural disasters.

And if you want me to increase the range of the countries and types of predictions I cover, as well as their accuracy (notably regarding dates of events), one of the best ways is to make a generous donation if you can afford it. It would be greatly appreciated as very few astrologers practise mundane astrology.
