Brexit March 2019 – the maybe moment of reckoning

In theory Brexit happens at midnight between March 29^th and 30^th 2019 – if it sticks to schedule. Though there may be an extension if negotiations drag on, or even an earlier pull-out if there’s an impassable deadlock and crockery goes flying.

It’s not too interesting a chart though there’s an angry Mars in Taurus on the Descendant trine a Capricorn Moon Pluto (Saturn) in Capricorn, so a sombre, aggravated mood. Located to London it puts a swampy Neptune on the IC. The ‘deprived/hardship’ Saturn Pluto is in the 2^nd house of finances as is Jupiter – so money will be a loaded issue. Uranus, as to be expected with a split, is emphasised being on the point of a difficult T Square of Node in Cancer opposition Moon Pluto (Saturn).

On the UK chart tr Uranus will square the 10^th house Jupiter from the 7^th house, for a moment of great relief at a partnership split. Solar Arc Pluto is within months of being conjunct the UK Ascendant which may in part feel like taking back control. However the Solar Arc Moon also opposes the 11^th house UK Saturn, which suggests a population out of step with the legislature – ie. unpopular politicians. Tr Saturn is exactly opposition the 10^th house (= rulers) Moon so a separation from the past. Tr Uranus and Solar Arc Uranus are also gearing up for a rocky ride through the UK 8^th house of joint and business finances, which isn’t necessarily a disaster, just very roller-coaster with swings up and down. Tr Uranus stays there from 2019  till 2027. Tr Saturn Pluto is wending its way through the UK 4^th which looks like a problematic time for – the common people, the foundations of society, agriculture.

The EU chart looks financially devastated in March 2019 with Solar Arc Pluto almost exactly conjunct their 2^nd house Neptune. Solar Arc MC is conjunct Pluto in the months thereafter which will feel like a dead-halt; and the Solar Arc Node is conjunct the EU Sun – so deep reflection needed about what is a decisive point in their destiny. The EU chart also has tr Uranus just into their 8^th house of business finances for the following 7 years; and tr Saturn Pluto is going through the 4^th. Like the UK, the EU has four planets in Fixed signs, spread-eagled across the chart in a Grand Cross, so the years of tr Uranus in Taurus in hard aspect to those Fixed planets from 2019 onwards will be ones of disruption, upheaval and forced change for the EU. The UK’s really jolting portion of the Uranian ride comes later from 2021 to 2024/5.

The Eclipses in 2019 look fraught. Set for London, the January 2019 Capricorn Solar Eclipse has Uranus exactly on the Descendant squaring onto Pluto opposition Node, with Pluto Saturn conjunct the Capricorn New Moon. And Saturn Pluto continues to weigh heavily being in opposition to the July 2019 Cancer Solar Eclipse. The Lunar Eclipse for January 2019 has the Full Moon squaring onto Uranus; and the July Lunar Eclipse is conjunct Saturn Pluto again. Won’t be too much singing, dancing and firework displays, methinks.
