Almost every day we come across to this kind of news, which naturally has difficult outcomes.

With respect to the data from the mass media, in the accidents which took place only during the first nine months of 1997, four thousand people were reported dead and around 86.000 (eighty-six thousand) were injured.

The material loss was estimated to be more than the budgets of the Ministries of Transport - Energy and Tourism for the year 1998.

Investigations, foundations, different kinds of applications, the increase in the amount of penalties ; to say it in short every single method was tried to solve this problem ; all of them were useless.

During the traffic controls, the drunken drivers laughed, sang songs, and made fun of the cameras who were shooting…

Even our President Mr. Demirel because he couldn't bear to see this picture any more, showed his sensitivity on the subject by saying;

"We have taken all kinds of measures, what else do we have to do!…"

Why do we lose twenty times more people in this traffic disorder in comparison with the Gulf War of 1991?… This is a question to which we cannot find any answer…

In one of my articles, I have mentioned Prof. Yasar Nuri Ozturk's ideas on the subject. Prof. Ozturk, in his corner "Friday Conversations" in the daily Newspaper Hurriyet wrote ;

" We have a problem concerning the railways. This problem is covered conciously. Because the huge terrifying giant, monster is in our country, and the railways are the most effective enemy of this monster". Thus, he is directing the problem to the railways.

This is a rational solution. However since every person does not have the possibility to take a train after leaving the door of his home, it doesn't seem as a measure which will decrease the no of traffic accidents.

Futhermore, we have to use the high-way to go to the railway station. Unfortunately, some of the accidents take place on these roads which do not pass through the center of the city, but which are still accepted as intercity roads.

As we learn from the press, in other countries the transportation between the cities is made by airplane, railways and the highways as well. However, we don't hear the news of big accidents and deaths in the traffic. Therefore, should we end up with the conclusion that Azrael (the angel of death) is not functioning in these countries!…

I have been to London, Mekka, Medina, Madrid, Ceddah. I have always paid special attention to the behavior of the drivers. There wasn't a single driver who was dissatisfied with this rights. There wasn't a bus going on the left line on the auto-bahns. There wasn't a single vehicle which didn't move to the right after overtaking another car on the left side. Most probably the situation is not different in the main cities of other countries.

In our case, it is just the opposite. It is very difficult to meet a driver who does not attack others rights.

So, the problem in the first place, depends on the level of the culture and the method of education in this direction.

Since many years the intelligent, educated people are crying out that nobody is reading books in Turkey. In other countries people are filling their bags with books of their own choice, as if they are going shopping. Whereas, among our people there are the ones who spend their life-time without buying and reading a single book, without writing something so that the ink in the pen can get finished. This is the level of culture…

Another important factor for the shockingly high accident rates is the astrological influences.

These astrological influences shape the behaviour of the person, their inner world and physical appearance. However, never and never they give the order "disobey the rules while driving, make accidents and cause deaths".

During the periods when the cosmic influences are extremely hard or lenient; if you are well aware of this fact then you may control yourself. Thus, you may take the neccesary precautions and you may avoid danger in this way.

Actually, we can make use of astrology not only for accidents, but for every area of life.

Even partial information on the subject will bring many advantages.

Even a partial (not the whole) knowledge of the Science of Astrology that I am talking about will bring you to this point.

Astrology is concerned not only with accidents, but with every aspect of life.

As an example, when the planet Mercury is retrograde, our brains cannot function with full capacity they slow down and get mixed up in certain ways. You can easily witness that most of the decisions that you have made during this period were not correct.

If, on your personal astrological chart, the planet Mars is in the sixth house, (i.e. the house for health) then you can expect illness anytime. Therefore you should be careful.

Now, let us take a look at the positions of the planets on the day when many lives were lost in the traffic mentioned at the beginning of this article.

The date is October 20.1997. The positions of the planets were as follows:-

We can see that Uranus is in Aquarius and Pluto is in Sagittarius and their long lasting influences have started to come into the open. The influences of the slow moving planets such as Neptune, Uranus and Pluto don't show up immediately. In time, Uranus causes accidents when it is aspected by certain angles of the other planets. On that day (October 20 th) Mars and Moon were opposing each other with an angle of 180° . This position has increased the hard influences of the other planets and caused the action of the accident to come to the open. In places, where these influences are received strongly it is impossible to avoid accidents.

As a matter of fact on that very some day October 20 th in South-Africa thirty-two people died as a result of a tanker colliding with a bus.

Of course, at this point, the astrological charts of the bus, the driver and the passengers should be taken into consideration.

At the end of December 1997 mars has conjucted Uranus, the Moon opposed them with a 180° angle first, then the Moon has pulled the trigger with a 90° angle from Scorpio.

The Neptune - Mars conjunction took place on December 15 th - 16 th -17 th …

Also ;

On Tuesday, September 16.1997, at 17:00 hours local time, there was the Lunar Eclipse. As it took place in the after-noon it could be watched very easily from Turkey.

I can suggest you to read the book named "Marifetname" written by Ibrahim Hakkı Erzurumi, about the movements of the sun, moon and the results of the eclipses.

You may say "Do I have to learn all of these ?"

However if you don't, it will be difficult for you to notice what is coming out and from where?

At this very moment, the position of Pluto in Sagittarius may bring floods, accidents, and deaths of masses.

So, nowadays, the aspects of the planets are very hard and one must know in general about the movements of the planets and be careful.

You may very well ask if there aren't any astrological influences in other countries. Naturally, these influences are present everywhere. However, some know about this science and create alternatives, and some obey the rules very strictly without leaving any empty space. This dosen't mean that there aren't any accidents, but the rate never reaches the level in our country.

As, I have told before our cultural position is the determining factor in this result.

All of these influences are bringing out the events which people cannot perceive with their five senses, the traffic chaos and the accidents are very good examples.

To be able to take precautions it is necessary to be fully aware and conscious. However, the accidents which end up with death should be taken within the scope of destiny.

Taking the death factor as a basis, religion(system) has classified the accidents as unchangeable and changeable.

"In the unchangeable accident there isn't any modification or alteration".

"In the changeable accident, it is possible that modification can take place." In this case we can

make evaluations and take precautions, if there could be a change …

There are verses which indicate that the unchangeable accident will never change. (see 33/38)

We must never forget that we should be behaving ourselves for the unchangeable accident which comes as a must of the divine will.

For, the Absolute Creating Power does not have any bargains with people on creating who, where, when, how, and, in which race. As well as there isn't any bargain on how and when one's death will take place.

In short we can say "Asrology and destiny are working in cooperation."

What we have to do is to take precautions. However , the precaution is also predestined, and the precaution that you take without knowning the method will be useless.

Just as it is now…..

May Allah be helping and supporting us.
