40 YEARS OF BEATING CORRUPTION
November 30

On a racing page in the weekly TRUTH newspaper of November 19, 1985 there was an unusual advertisement for a " tipping system: "

CATHY COSTIN STRIKES ON DECEMBER 21

Explaining how for $12, subscribers would get a list of Astrologically-calculated winning and losing dates for prominent jockeys and trainers in the month of December.

After discovering Astrology in London, I returned home in October 1982. The discoveries had also included formulae that produced days of good fortune for people. I'd had a lot of fun as a racing journalist in the 1970s, and been party to all kinds of skullduggery--- trainers wanting horses pulled up, jockeys organising races--- and I even used to place bets for jockey mates on horses they were racing against !

Great when you're in the inner circle, so horse racing was a memory when I left journalism. Race form and all the study meant nothing when a crafty old trainer tells the jockey to " give it a quiet one " so they can get a price next time.

So on returning home, I started gaining birth information of trainers and jockeys in my spare time while working in hospitality. Eventually launching the PLANET KINGDOM tip sheet in December 1985. Instant success with December 7's selected jockey, Debbie Healey winning on the first of 4 mounts-- Final Stick at $27.30. A couple of losing days, then the publicised Cathy Costin struck with Pentameter at $24.10. Bad for the nerves as it was at Ms Costin's 5th of 6 rides on December 21.

I started concentrating on small-time trainers and jumps jockeys who'd only have one or 2 chances per day. Then disaster struck in April when a government department decided that " tip sheets " contravened some archaic law. Suddenly they were outlawed in NZ, so I moved to Australia and marketed the tipping system over there.

THE BART CUMMINGS EPIC

Notably labelling trainer J B Cummings for Tuesday, November 4, 1986---Melbourne Cup day, on which Bart was so famous. Not this year, J B Cummings had only 2 runners in the whole of Australia that day. A failure in the Cup, then Cropley Road winning the next race at Flemington paying $55 !

Then the laws around tip sheets were relaxed in NZ and I was home early in 1987. Tip sheets were now okay as long as they contained a percentage of editorial comment. So the Astrological racing system was relaunched on June 1, when labelled jockey Paul Hillis won the Great Northern Steeplechase at Ellerslie on $12.55 shot Deductable. We were back in business.

THE PUBLICITY STUNT

Helped in no uncertain terms by some controversial " editorial " in the August edition. Re the racing authorities' bad attitude to Cannabis-using jockeys and revelations about widespread use and its benefits. So a fuming racecourse inspector decided to ban me indefinitely from racetracks at Pukekohe on Saturday August 1. Which earned maximum publicity from a Sunday Star-Times page lead the next day, then IZB prime time with Paul Holmes at 8.45 am Monday.

There were follow ups from IZB and the Star-Times and 2 sessions with great stirrer Tim Bickerstaff on Radio Pacific. The publicity stunt brought a lot of new clients and the October edition began with a novice jockey named Lisa Cropp getting a $45 winner from her 3 rides. Still the idiotic racecourse inspector refused to pardon me for racetrack return, until I submitted the names of 60 jockeys I had smoked Cannabis with, so they could be charged !

No ! was the answer and I went home and phoned Tim Bickerstaff. A few hours later I'm on air and Tim wondered about the racecourse inspector " wants you to go supergrass on your jockey mates, just so you can go on racetracks ? " Not that it had stopped me from going.

Eventually the racecourse inspector's bosses stepped in and I was officially pardoned after 8 months. Come 1995 a fresh challenge was needed and an 0900 line system was introduced. Weekly columns in FRIDAY FLASH ( 1990-92 ) and TRUTH ( 1994-97 ) helped the cause, along with irregular appearances on various radio and television channels.

BEING VERY SELECTIVE

Drastic changes to racing programming and dwindling jumps racing days saw the 0900 number retire in 2009. A new challenge was needed, and later that year the great service resumed for select clients, with a return to the original plans and aiming for longshot dividends. Another challenge, with clients placing $20 on the selections as a " management fee." If we don't win, I don't get paid. We're careful,too:

Since 2019: 25 investments, 8 wins. Average win dividend $12.42 on a 32% winning strike rate. We've had 4 losers and a 0204 formline since an October 2023 winner. That paid $8.50 after a 030 formline which followed a $26 winner in July 2023.

The quality of human involved in racing has dropped alarmingly and it's become so unattractive to normal people. I have even tried to help them, by trashing the long-standing myth about " no certainties in racing, " with Astrological unbeatables in Friday Flash, Truth and Trackside Channel over the last 35 years. My efforts were not appreciated.

Nowadays I can't be bothered with paltry $2 and $3 win dividends, I'm stuck in the golden 1970s emulating the cunning master trainers setting them up for a good dividend. It's a lot of fun, with patience, and I'm looking forward to 2 possibilities on Boxing Day, always one of my favourite days. Boxing Day has a formline for us of 113121 over 20 years, and includes winners that paid $28.50 and $13.00 !

RIPPER RECESSION TIMELINE
November 28

The RPM ( Recession Predicting Machine ) has been very productive in the last 6 years.

January 2, 2020:
2 years of " great destruction " were forecast for Australia, courtesy of Pluto squashing its midheaven point until November 2021. February and June of 2020 were deemed crucial. ( Covid arrived in " February " and stayed until late 2021. Australia announced that it was in recession in " June " ! )

April 6, 2020:
" Very easy to see NZ's lockdown being extended and not a great deal of improvement overall until September. With the same Sun-Neptune progression being repeated around October 2021." ( There was another horrific, 4 months lockdown before NZ was finally free of the virus in December 2021. )


December 22, 2021:
Another recession for NZ was forecast between October 2023 and March 2024 beneath " BEWARE THE IDES OF NOVEMBER 2023 !" ( Lots of liquidations and layoffs had new PM Luxon's claims of inheriting "a recession " when he took over in December 2023 )

June 14 2024:
" NZ'S NEXT RECESSION " explained why there was another " ripper " between February 2025 and November 2026, courtesy of Pluto squashing NZ's Mercury. With serious hits around March 2026, involving similar, " difficult Solar progressions. "

These same " difficult Solar progressions " supervised the serious issues of late 2020 and 2021. When NZ was deemed to be " gullible, weakened, unhealthy, confused and careless with money." The March 2026 factor means there's 4 months of extreme industrial amendment on the horizon.

Of which there has been plenty in recent months. In 2025, New Zealand is experiencing its highest wave of company liquidations in over a decade, with figures on track to surpass the 2024 total of 2,500. By mid-year, 1,270 businesses had already entered liquidation, a 12% increase from the same period in 2024. Experts anticipate the total number of liquidations for 2025 will be 20-30% higher than the previous year's 10-year high and 2700 businesses have closed down in the last 12 months.

" Experts " in such an angry country going backwards ? With morale at an all-time low after the stunning revelations about those 17 " popos/pigs/ducks and geese " being investigated ? With unemployment now at a 30-years high, and there’s gonna be plenty more dramatics in the early months of the 2026 Fire Horse Year.

At least we know that the R P M can be trusted.

THE NATIONAL PLONKER

NZ's " mental health " crisis has long been a source of great amusement. With yet another contribution from the national plonker:

" Scott Robertson's All Blacks are just not good enough and it's really upsetting me, " claimed Sir John Kirwan.

How much ? How does the " really upsetting me " compare with Kirwan's rank failures in 14 years as a head coach, and the Auckland Blues worst-ever ? As we know so well, the bone was well and truly pointed at the 2025 All Blacks in last November's Annual Prophecies, with those stunning prophecies on the 3 Scotts.

Ironically, the national plonker gave Astrology a big tick of approval in my sole appearance on Sports Cafe in August 1997. During discussion with regulars Marc Ellis, Ric Salizzo and Lana Coc-Kroft, Kirwan chimed in with a pearler: " My mother told me that you said this was going to be a bad year for Matthew Ridge ! "

Mother Kirwan must have learned this from Truthsport or Newstalk ZB. It was Ridge's first season with the Auckland Warriors after shifting home from Sydney, and he was in various on and off-field dramas. Was there some Astrological discussion in the Kirwan household ?

I had actually phoned mother Kirwan late in 1994 re John's birth time after getting tipped off about the Warriors planning to lure Kirwan from rugby retirement and sign him. His birthdate planets indicated some kind of comeback in the competitive arena. Mother Kirwan didn't think so, but J K did come back and play for the 1995 Auckland Warriors.

A promoter of evil alcohol as well as being a " mental health advocate," Sir Johnny Wino could claim to be the ultimate in hypocrisy. And like many " experts " with fragile egos, he cowers away from the amazing Astrological truths. So many have told unbelievable lies, a notable being the fellow " mental health advocate " Mike King.

Instead, Sir Johnny Plonk Pedlar could just S**U and deal privately with whatever's " really upsetting me." He's got around 40 brands of the JK-14 plonk he peddles to choose from !

Kirwan is best-known for " opening up " about his " mental issues," which are actually the product of revolutionary Pluto squashing energetic Mars when he was born. Maintaining positive energy is very difficult under this aspects, and possessors experience drastic and extreme personal changes.

Depression and mid-life crises are common, with fellow possessors including controversial NZers Brent Todd, Cameron Slater, Brooke Howard-Smith and departeds Pua Magasiva and Sean Wainui. Horse racing has donated dramatics like Stephen McKee, Michael McNab, Paul Milich and the late Ray Cleaver.

Kirwan's extreme personal changes include being a mental health advocate then a promoter of evil alcohol !

KIWI KIDS ON TOP

Even if NZ squanders zillions on " counsellors, " this should not be funny !

Key Statistics (as of May/October 2025 data/reports)
• Ranking: New Zealand has been reported by UNICEF to have the highest youth su***de rate (ages 15-19) among 41 OECD and EU countries.

" Take me down to the Su***de City

WHEN THE GOLDEN ERA BEGAN

'Twas 33 years ago this month that NZ got its first taste of real radio Astrology.

More than the shallow, Sun sign crap, this was real, using the time, date and place of birth. I had been writing a column in the horse racing weekly Friday Flash since June 1990, and making many accurate predictions. Initially on horse racing, then I veered onto subjects like rugby league, royalty and even the Gulf War. Jarrod McCracken, Prince Charles and Saddam Hussain featured.

This needed to go further, so I wrote a letter to Radio Pacific with my credentials. They decided that I would be in the 10 am-noon spot on Monday, November 23, in the One on One with Tim Bickerstaff. I was promoted as an interesting person, an ex-journalist whose travels had included tending bar in the world's allegedly toughest pub ( Port Hedland, Western Australia ), grooming polo ponies for Prince Andrew's father-in-law in England and discovering Astrology.

Eventually the talkback lines were opened and callers provided their birthdates and got a brief analysis. Like the young lady who was told of a wonderful Neptune-Venus phase this year, and she spoke enthusiastically about her recent engagement !

So many accurates like that, and even Bickerstaff asked about his own future. 1993 would have major Pluto-trine-Jupiter expansion, and he hoped the expansion wasn't going to be " around the waistline ? " No. More a great year for career matters and a good time for business.

At the end, the normally sceptical 49 year-old broadcasting lifer Bickerstaff admitted to being " impressed. " Which inspired me to go home and write to the boss of Radio Pacific. Such an amazing science/system deserved much more publicity, but he didn't think so. Then I sent a letter to about a dozen radio stations/publications.

Mid-1993 Bickerstaff and Radio Pacific's boss clashed. Bickerstaff stormed off, leased airtime elsewhere and began his own show. Late that year I got my first reply from the letters. Newstalk ZB's producer contacted me, with suggestions of an hour with Murray Deaker on New Year's Day, 1994.

This happened, and the annual January hour went for 18 years. A nation wanted it and loved it, with talkback lines jammed with people for the instant Astrological analysis. 15 minutes after the show I'd be home to a dozen messages on the answerphone and the 0900 line received 67 calls one Monday after a Sunday show. But some 15 years ago, the new media regime started cutting Astrological content. My last Newstalk ZB show was in January 2011.

You can feel very alienated from the land of K.I.W.I in laid-back, multicultural, own-rules Otahuhu. But NZ is obviously struggling, with those recent spikes in su***de, liquidations, layoffs, poverty, homelessness and massive debt. And the methamphetamine boom.

Collectively the stupid cuntry didn't learn anything from the era of awesome Astrology. But I prefer to see the positives from that amazing chapter in the comic book of life. Thousands of smart people did have their lives enhanced with Astrological enlightenment, and 18 hours of the free, prime-time advertising with NZ's most influential sportscaster would have cost me a fortune..

McSKIMMING'S ASTROLOGY

The disgraced cop would have a very interesting planetary make-up. Would he have a dark Scorpio Moon and/or some serious Pluto psychological blocks to supervise his obvious obsession with child p**n ?

Unfortunately I am unable to locate any birth information on the deviate. Any assistance would be appreciated.

THAT 20% PAY RISE

On November 20, 1985, there was a big stop work meeting in the Auckland Town Hall by the Hotel Workers’ Union.

We had rejected the employers’ offer of a 13% pay rise then voted to march up Queen St and storm Auckland’s leading hotel, the Sheraton ( later Langhams ) opposite Grafton Bridge, and have a sit-down in the foyer. Hundreds there, soon down to 40 courtesy of cramped conditions and official warnings, with the cops being called.

They figured that arresting our leader Matt McCarten might break it up. No chance, with veteran vice-president Ron Brown telling me that “ I’m too old for this s**t, you’re in charge.” TV2 was there too, and after several warnings I was given the ultimatum by the chief cop. I turned to the 38 others, including some Maori, Polynesians, and a guitar:

" Brothers and sisters, what are we gonna do ? " They started singing Peter, Paul and Mary’s “ We shall not be moved " and soon after the chief cop had " no option but to arrest you. " With raised arms, I turned myself in. Led away by two cops to a special room for processing offered by the Sheraton management. Then two more cops to es**rt each of us to the paddy wagons, with hundreds of our comrades outside, cheering.

Back to the station for more processing, and back to the union office next morning, for briefing about a gimmick requested by TV2. 10 of the staunchest, arms roped together like convicts, for a shot walking into the courthouse to plead not guilty to the trespassing charges. Then back on the bus, decked out in SCAB BUSTER slogans, sanctioned by HWU secretary and future MP Rick Barker, and off to harass various establishments in Auckland using non-union, " scab " labour.

Like picketing the very popular De Bretts Hotel in downtown. As part of the master plan, I selected a female Polynesian accomplice and told union organiser and future MP Mark Gosche that I was “ going inside to clean the place out.”

An orange juice each, then we started furtively pricking the small plastic sachets, known as " Stink Bombs " that oozed an horrific sulphuric smell. " I don't like this table ! " complained Ms Lucy, so we moved to another and did some more pricking. Then I demanded we sit near the window, and more stink bombs were detonated before our departure.

Outside again to rejoin the picketers, with a steady stream of suits, ties and briefcases following soon after. " Fu***ng like a s**thouse in there ! " complained a pair of scurrying acquaintances in property development, Merv Freeth and Alan Webster.The weapons of nasal destruction ( used by sewerside bombers ) were working.

TV2 coverage inspired most of the Hotel Workers’ Unions in the land to go out for 48 hours and next week the employers’ association came crawling back for more talks. We accepted the 20% pay rise they offered us. And eventually the police decided to drop all the trespassing charges.

This was a golden era in NZ, but the writing was on the wall. Another wonderful chapter in life's great comic book was completed, I went travelling and concentrated on the Astrological horse racing business. While hearing of a new destructive mob of women in the HWU -- the Black Widow movement ---there basically to undermine the higher profile males. Labour's 6 years in power ended in 1990 and next year National deregulated trade unions.

I decided then that the country was fu**ed, especially for the poor unprotected peasants. Then Labour became L***a. Nowadays you don't look at L***a leader Chrissy Napkins and see a staunch wharfie, freezing worker, engineer, boilermaker or truck driver urging his comrades to " Out brother out ! " and take on the establishment again.

You see a minimum-wage earning wine waiter, hoping that his next pour will earn a tip.

BYERLEY PARK DONALDED

The rapidly rotting racing industry has copped another kidney punch.

The subscriber-only NBR reported this morning that Daniel Nakhle failed in a High Court injunction to stop his mother putting the thoroughbred racing facility Byerley Park into liquidation.

On 250 acres near Karaka, Byerley Park was established by Nakhle and his father Elias, and has an equine academy and between 200 and 300 racehorses in training. So Donna Logan ( 60 ), Cooksley-Wallace ( 30 ) Barbara Kennedy, Steven Cole, Walker-Tata, Kylie Hoskin and Jenna Mahoney, all with around 20 horses, might be moving.

GREAT SCOTT X 3

Zillions of phrases, clauses and expletives have been wasted on the All Blacks.

Especially over the 2025 defeats from Argentina, England and the record-breaking humiliation by South Africa. Real funny how it was all sorted with just a few sentences in last November's Annual Prophecies !

Robertson, Scott:
Significant reversals for rugby coach from Uranus v Sun, with May, Dec and March 026 crucial. Mental chaos from Uranus v Mercury between July 025 and March 027, and Pluto v Venus between March 027 and December 028.

Hansen, Scott:
Major off-year for rugby coach with Pluto attacking his Sun and Mercury between Jan and Dec. April-June crucial, with Saturn setbacks Sept, Oct.

Barrett, Scott:
Gap year recommended for rugby player with negative Uranus-Sun and Pluto-Jupiter squares operating. Jan, May, Aug, Nov crucial.

Pointing the bone at the All Blacks began about 31.5 years ago with a stunner. Coach Laurie Mains' year of Pluto v Sun had just 2 wins from 6 matches, with the losses including a double at home to France ! Then, in Truthsport of November 25, 1994:

" I've made it clear that difficult Pluto aspects for Mains will make 1995 just as unproductive, so the chances of the All Blacks coming home with the World Cup are similar to those of finding a cream Napoleon in a Bosnian P.O.W camp."

It was bloody close. Baker boy got to the camp gates, but was gunned down by a sniper. The All Blacks were red-hot favourites for the Grand Final after the great displays of Jonah Lomu's head stomping. A South African dropped goal in the final minutes sealed their 15-12 win, and a sensational prediction.
Later it emerged that many of the All Blacks had been affected by food poisoning.

ALL BLACKS VACANCY
There is an upcoming vacancy in the AB's coaching staff. The successful candidate will have to prove their intelligence by correctly answering the following question: Name a prominent rugby coach being affected by a serious Pluto attack during the next RWC year ?

15/11/2025

WHO CAN YOU TRUST ?

Why would Simon Dallow suddenly stop reading the 6 p.m news after nearly 20 years ?

Why would 2025 be so unproductive for celebrated footy coaches Des Hasler, Kristian Woolf and Warren Gatland ? Why so many reversals for Dame Lydia Ko, Jahrome Hughes and Portia Woodman ?

All predicted in the November 2024 Annual Prophecies, as yet another year of amazing Astrology is petering out, with the normal 90%-plus success rate. Rugby union personnel Scott Robertson, Scott Barrett, Scott Hansen and Patrick Tuipolotu featured, along with horse racing's Mark Walker, Andrew Forsman, Luke Nolen and Warren Kennedy. Also Dame Lisa Carrington and Scott McLaughlin, with pearls on Donald Trump, Tory Whanau, Millie Holmes, Duncan Garner and John Tamihere.

Add the long-range predictions of May-June disaster for Israel and Netanyahu. But my favourite was the declaration in February of Grand Final success for the NZ Warriors' Reserves, and the awesome forecasts on coach David Tangata-Toa and players Kalani Going and Geronimo Doyle. 2 Grand Finals actually, the NSW Cup and State Championship.

https://www.donmurrayastrologer.com/predictions.html

Poor New Zealand. So accustomed to mediocrity in the police, media, education and mental health, they just cannot handle a system that actually gets it right most of the time. Not a country to be taken seriously.

The next Annual Prophecies shall be published on November 26.
