BRICS, the Dollar & Energy: The Hidden Front in the Middle East : By Alinda Kanaki

Decisions under Mars–Pluto, Geo-Strategic Shifts & Resource Pricing

Publicly, the confrontation in the Middle East is presented as a clash of values, rights or religion.
In reality, the core of the conflict lies in energy pricing, currency settlement, and the ability of states to impose rules without deploying fleets or armies.
This is where the BRICS–Dollar front opens and where the new monetary warfare begins.

The planet is entering a rare period in which decisions are taken before pretexts are formed.
The surface appears calm, but state machines are operating in silent mode.
At this stage, states do not need fleets or speeches, they need backchannels, legal shields, and energy corridors to shift the balance without revealing the move.

The American sphere is not targeting states, it is targeting currency.
The Dollar is not money — it is enforcement.
It is the language through which belligerents communicate their conflict.
This is why the greatest threat is not Russia, nor Iran, but the BRICS — a bloc that is not yet a political union, but already possesses an economic narrative.
And narratives defeat missiles when markets believe them.

Today, war is not thermal, it is monetary.
Every time oil is priced in a non-Dollar denomination, a drop of blood lands on the financial councils of Wall Street.
For this reason, Iran does not concern the West as a theocracy but as a pricing hub.
Iran is the freight chokepoint linking the East to the BRICS and to the energy flows — a link that will not be permitted without a cost.

On the diplomatic level, a new figure appears: the “friendly face”, a transitional asset the West can manage.
He is not a successor; he is an interface.
He does not assume power; he assumes negotiation.
This mechanism has been used repeatedly in both theocratic and military regimes.
Always as an open channel, never as a first choice.
His mission is not to govern, but to make dialogue plausible.

The Russian sphere plays a different game.
It does not care about faces, it cares about buffers — states capable of absorbing friction so that its own balance may survive.
Anyone speaking of “solutions for Iran” while excluding Moscow misses the largest player in the energy warfare.
Russia knows that without Iran, China will accelerate into liquefied gas technology, altering the rules long before the conflict concludes.

China fears nothing more than the disruption of logistics.
China’s true power is not its GDP, but its container fleets.
The East does not seek victory, it seeks flow — ships departing, goods moving, and the yuan appearing as payment currency on invoices.
This is why tension in the Gulf is not a military matter — it is currency warfare.

Low-tier analysts fail to see that the Mars–Pluto conjunction does not signal unrest, it signals sealing.
The decision is taken now, executed later.
In military doctrine this is Decide → Prepare → Execute.
In astrology it occurs when Mars has not yet transmitted the decision to the House of Action.
This is why markets remain still — the brief has not been executed.

At this stage, fixed stars not meant for public discourse begin activating.
Regulus brings royal legitimization, but always demands a price for throne transitions.
Antares, the true warlord star, meets Mars in its desire for strategic enforcement, and Pluto in its desire for absolute dominance.
Alphard of Hydra, the most toxic expression of state passion, does not operate through announcements but through revenge.
And Algol, the most misunderstood star of the decapitation scenario, does not signify catastrophe — it signifies the removal of a figure from the board.

The most dangerous element here is not the attack, but the accidental removal of a figure.
The international community calls it misfortune, markets call it uncertainty, and intelligence services call it necessity.
No one speaks — but everyone understands.

Iran is not a “problem” for the West.
It is a pressure vessel and a monetary transformer.
Theocracies do not reform — they arrive and depart.
And transitions seldom occur without losses in figures.
The international press pretends the game concerns rights.
In reality it concerns pricing.
When pricing changes currency, empires shift.

The Persian sphere at this moment is not negotiating with states, it is negotiating with markets.
Anyone attempting to analyze the conflict through ideology misses the point.
Ideology matters only when accompanied by pipelines.
Ideology without pipelines does not produce war; it produces theater.
War concerns flows.

Backchannels already whisper that the role of the “friendly face” has been assigned.
Not to govern, but to sign the transition.
The transition does not concern the regime.
It concerns the narrative that will permit global acceptance and later currency settlement.
The West does not need a liberal Iran — it needs predictable pricing.

Here emerges the greatest risk of the operation: the accidental loss of a high-level figure.
In ministries this is called decapitation risk.
In intelligence agencies it is called a removal event.
In astrology we call it the activation of Algol in conjunction or conflict with power axes.
And here precision is necessary: Algol does not kill — Algol removes.
The result is the same for political geometry.

The Mars–Pluto conjunction in Aquarius does not resemble a military explosion.
It resembles a locked decision window.
The event does not execute during the conjunction; it executes when Mars exits Pluto’s shadow and Mercury exits its own shadow transit.
Then the world believes that “something suddenly happened”.
In reality, the preparation simply concluded.

In this configuration, Antares does not play the card of brute war, but of power enforcement.
Regulus demands a price for every throne transition.
Zosma inserts the victim narrative required for international tolerance.
And Alcyone of the Pleiades introduces strategic blindness — the illusion that everything proceeds normally while the briefings are already sealed.

  In the East there is a dual reading.

China does not seek conflict closure, it seeks conflict prolongation.
As long as uncertainty persists, the yuan strengthens its position within pricing flows.
Russia does not seek upheaval, it seeks a time buffer to complete its own logistics cycle.
The BRICS do not seek destabilization — they seek pricing reform.
Only the West desires resolution — and this is not a good sign for the planet.

In the astrology of states, one delayed question always appears:
“Who pays the bill?”
In major wars, armies do not pay the bill — currencies do.
In international financial history, war is won by the issuer of the currency, not the victor of the field.
The Dollar survives because the world pays in it.
The BRICS advance because the world is tired of paying in Dollars.

The diplomatic miscalculation that could trigger the next events is not ideological — it is a misalignment between monetary interests and military mechanisms.
If a third world war is to begin, it will not begin through hatred.
It will begin through bad calculations.

And when the announcement arrives, all will pretend they never saw it coming.
But the briefings are already prepared.
And the chessboard does not wait for spectators.
The pieces have already taken position.

Those who understood — understood.
