Stress levels will be mounting in January with the Brexit vote now fixed (maybe) for the week starting January 14th. The month starts with Mars moving into Aries on the 1st and a dreary Sun Saturn in Capricorn conjunction on the 3rd, followed smartly by the Capricorn Solar Eclipse on the 6th. Eclipses always bring a sense of heightened anticipation and this one especially so for the UK since it is conjunct the UK Sun and opposition the 10th house Moon – so there will be a sense of crisis and radical change in the air. This Solar Eclipse located to London has Uranus exactly on the Descendant, suggesting a split in a close relationship.
The Sun then grinds towards a conjunction with Pluto on the 11th, which will make the second week pressured and blocked. By the 19th there’s a rebellious, freedom-loving Sun square Uranus; followed by the Leo Lunar Eclipse on the 21st, the same day as a bad-tempered Mars square Saturn. The Lunar Eclipse will conjunct the UK Jupiter in Leo which can be expansive and also over-confident.
On Theresa May’s chart, January 14th starts four weeks of tr Pluto conjunct her Mars/Saturn midpoint = running into deadlock, harmful or destructive energy, usually fairly catastrophic. Her Government chart is pretty deflated that week as well with tr Saturn square the Jupiter.
Oddly enough the UK chart has tr Pluto square the Sun/Jupiter midpoint which is usually upbeat in mood and that runs January 14th till mid-February. So as Theresa May sags battered and bruised the country in general is feeling perkier.
February in general looks every bit as bumpy as January, starting on an aggravated, enraged Mars Pluto square with a disruptive Mars square Uranus midway through.
