In an end-of-year interview on Al-Nahar TV, Egyptian astrologer Sayyed Al-Shimi warned that whenever Saturn enters a fire sign, the Jews become stronger. Attributing various events, including the first World Zionist Congress, the Balfour Declaration, and the 1948, 1956, and 1967 wars, to the constellation of the stars, Al-Shimi warned that in December 2014, Saturn would enter Sagittarius again.

Sayyed Al-Shimi: "Saturn will enter the fire sign of Sagittarius. My late father and I have had a long history with Saturn entering fire signs. As Sheikh Daud Al-Antaki wrote, when Saturn enters any of the fire signs, the Jews grow stronger. Don't believe in this merely because I say so. It's been tested.

Interviewer: "What happened in the past in such a case?"
Sayyed Al-Shimi: "We discovered that Saturn entered the fire sign of Sagittarius when the first World Zionist Congress convened.

The 1967 war took place when Saturn was in the fire sign of Aries.
"Between 1963-1967, my late father warned in his annual reports: 'Beware, Saturn will enter the sign of Aries in 1967, and this means that the Jews will grow stronger, just like in 1956 and in 1948.' 'Beware,' he said, 'something is about to happen.' But they refused to believe him.[...]
"After visiting the sign of Aries, Saturn entered the sign of Leo. This was in 1977, when Sadat visited Jerusalem. [...]
"The last time Saturn was in the fire sign of Leo occurred in 2006. I started warning them in 2004: 'Beware, when Saturn enters the sign of Leo, the Jews in Palestine will get stronger.

Sayyed Al-Shimi: "It does enter water signs, but in December 2014, it will enter the fire sign of Sagittarius. Therefore, I hope that until December 2014, the Arab leaders must do whatever they can to resolve the Palestinian problem." [...]
