Jupiter, on the other hand, is so far away it's gravity has almost no effect whatsoever on the Earth. Can you name one thing on Earth affected by the gravity of Jupiter?
So how is Jupiter's gravity going to do anything on earth during an alignment?
Jupiter is too far away for its gravity to affect us, sorry. How is the sun and Jupiter aligning going to cause any sort of gravitational effect that is out of the norm on Earth?
Once the 28th comes and passes, and nothing happens, what will you say? Will you say "I'm wrong?" Will you stop thinking that you have the ability to predict future events?
The ego is strong with this one.....

Alignments happen all the time.
To date, it seems that planetary alignments have no effect.
Sorry, but history trumps Astrology.
Also, if you do the maths with gravitational orbits & forces (the stuff that Newton invented), you'll see that there are no significant forces produced.edit on 29/6/2011 by chr0naut because: (no reason given)

Dear James 1982,
...Not only Jupiter of course, but also Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are part of the equation. Now we also have a "rouge planet" roughly estimated to be the size of Uranus or Neptune, with the gravity there of, plunging into our inner Solar System. ELENIN has already caused three major earthquakes in Chile and New Zealand and Japan. What the author of the thread is suggesting is very valid.
You're a bit out of order if you're thinking that the outer four gas giant in our Solar System do not have any gravitational affects on the inner Solar System. The effect of Jupiter on the orbit of the Earth is called the MILANKOVICH CYCLE. It is the roughly 100,000 cycle of Ice Ages in that Jupiter is lifting the Earth into a higher orbit around the Sun. Thus producing the Ice Ages. Not only Jupiter of course, but also Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are part of the equation.

In the mean time I suspect that there will be plenty of idiotic pretending that ELENIN is a hoax.
One astronomer via the YouTube stated that although ELENIN will most probably not hit the Earth never the less we can expect solar flares and earthquakes and tidal waves too. What the astronomer said is that the Earths orbit will shift so that our year will stop being 365 days returning to 350 days like as it used to be. There is also the possibility of what is called "crustal displacement" like as is believed to have occurred around 15,000 BC as well as on very many other times through out geological history.

JPL doesn't deal in Astrology - did you bother to pull the link?
Astronomy is what we are talking about here, astrology deals with zodiac signs.
