Larry Ellison, a giant of the tech world, co-founder of Oracle, now doubling his fortune via AI, is expanding in a worrisome fashion along with his son David into buying vast expanses of the US media – from TikTok’s US assets, to Paramount, preparing bid for Warner Brothers Discovery as well as HBO and CNN, a combination that would create one of the biggest media giants in the US. All backed by Trump and his regulatory loyalist Brendan Carr.

“The Ellison duo taking over both CBS and CNN, as well as controlling a major social media network like TikTok, would be dangerous for democracy. And given their closeness to the Trump regime, that seems to be the point,” the media watch group FAIR warned recently.

  An erstwhile supporter of Bill Clinton, Ellison senior has been moving rightwards politically over recent years. Trump praised the elder Ellison earlier this year as “an amazing man and amazing business person”.

  In addition Ellison Snr is one of the largest donors to the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change (TBI); £52 million in 2023 with promise of another £163 million, according to the Guardian. ‘Matched with interviews, they revealed an organisation unusually close to the British government, holding regular meetings with ministers in which they push policy recommendations that serve Oracle’s interests.’

  Oracle appears to be in line for the new digital ID cards and has expressed interest in data from the NHS.

Multiple staff working for TBI during the Ellison cash injection speak of a sea change in culture towards pushing aggressive tech solutions which caused unrest amongst staff from humanitarian and development backgrounds.  “It’s hard to get across just how deeply connected the two [organisations] are,” a former TBI staffer said.

 Ellison Snr in 2017 donated $16.6 million to the Friends of the Israel Defense Forces and his contribution to funding an archaeological excavation project in East Jerusalem has attracted criticism from Palestinians and Israeli peace activists and some archaeologists. A 2019 lawsuit accusing Ellison and others of conspiring to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Israeli-occupied territories, committing war crimes, and funding genocide  was dismissed in early 2024. He appears to be close to Netanyahu.

 Born 17 August 1944, New York, Larry Ellison is a Sun and Moon in Leo with a stellium in Virgo ranging from a Jupiter Venus conjunction to Mercury Mars conjunction at the other end. His Uranus in Gemini is trine Neptune sextile Pluto; and squares Jupiter Venus. It’s a chart that needs a birth time to make sense. But one of the key factors will be his Jupiter in Virgo which is conjunct his Neptune/Pluto midpoint. Neptune Pluto can have supernatural overtones but it is also associated with megalomania = inordinate ambition.

 His Solar Arc Jupiter is square his Sun now; tr Uranus will square his Jupiter in 26/27; and his Solar Arc Uranus is conjunct his Jupiter by 2027; with a lucky tr Uranus square his Sun/Jupiter across this winter – so he’s on a roll. Not everything ahead is plain sailing since his midpoints and a couple of Solar Arcs do indicate some calamities, career setbacks and the like moving into 2026/27 but his pluses almost certainly outweigh his minuses.

 His relationship chart with the USA is an eye-opener with a composite Sun, Jupiter, Venus, Mars square Pluto conjunction, hinting at great enthusiasm which will be tested in coming years with tr Pluto opposing the composite Sun, Jupiter, Venus, Mars. I couldn’t even begin to imagine what that will result in.

  Ellison’s relationship with the UK has a tussle-for-the-upper-hand composite Jupiter square Pluto which can start as a ‘together-we-can-be-successful’ push but often ends in rancour. With a defensive composite Sun square Saturn which will be under pressure in the next few years.

 Ellison Snr’s relationship with Blair will be less than harmonious moving ahead with a high-tension tr Uranus quare the composite Saturn over this winter plus tr Saturn square the composite Uranus Venus. And worse a disappointing tr Saturn Neptune square the composite Sun in 2026/27. So not all happy campers together.

ADD ON: Oracle, founded 16 June 1977, has a communicative, multi-tasking Gemini stellium of New Moon, Jupiter, Mercury trine Pluto plus an enthusiastic, ultra-determined and can-be-autocratic Mars Venus in Taurus opposition Uranus square Saturn in Leo.

  There are hints that 2027 will be a crunch year with setbacks from Solar Arc Sun conjunct its Saturn; a collision type feeling from Solar Arc Mars conjunct its Sun; sudden changes from Solar Arc Uranus opposition its Sun and a road-blocked tr Pluto square the Mars in 2027/28.

Selena Gomez, actress, singer, owner of a $2 billion cosmetics company and the most-followed woman on Instagram, married record producer Benny Blanco yesterday in California.

 Born 22 July 1992 7.19 am Grand Prairie, Texas, she has had it tough with split parents, a poor childhood and multiple health problems in her adult life ranging from lupus and a kidney transplant as well as depression, anxiety and a bipolar diagnosis. Last year she revealed her inability to have children naturally due to her health issues and said she wanted to explore either surrogacy or adoption in the future.

  Her final degree Cancer Sun falls in her creative, hidden 12^th house square her 9^th house Aries Moon, hinting at her incompatible parents. She also has a can-be-fearful 4^th house Pluto which will make her controlling in her domestic life. It opposes a super-ambitious 10^th house Mars in Taurus conjunct Algol and squares a 7^th house Saturn in Aquarius, which in turn is opposition Venus Mercury in Leo.  Her Saturn in the 7^th suggests a marriage later in life than some and one which either requires hard work or in which work gets in the way of togetherness.

 Venus Mercury in Leo on her Ascendant will help to give her a charming and showy appearance.

 Her 6^th house of health has a highly-strung Uranus Neptune in Capricorn square her Aries Moon which hints both at family disruptions and emotional sensitivity.

  Not an easy life or temperament but she pulled herself up to shine in her career. Her lucky Jupiter in Virgo in her 2^nd would help when it came to money making schemes.

 Her husband, Benny Blanco, 8 March 1988, Reston, VA, no birth time, has a Pisces Sun and Scorpio Moon which will suit her Cancer Sun though less so her Aries Moon. His Sun falls in her 8^th for a deep connection. His charming, sociable Venus Jupiter sits on her Midheaven which will be an asset to her career. He has the triple conjunction in Capricorn of Uranus, Saturn, Neptune and Mars so is a high-vitality, excitable and scattered personality.  His Moon Pluto in Scorpio fall in her 4^th close to her Pluto which at best means they will understand each other’s emotional conditioning as far as home and family are concerned. Though it may lead to a few domestic tensons.

  Their relationship chart has a sensible, workmanlike composite Sun Mercury trine Saturn, sextile Mars. Saturn gives longevity and Mars adds self-discipline. The composite Pluto opposes the Sun Mercury and trines Mars which looks pressured but in such a high-profile match it may not be surprising. The composite Jupiter opposes Uranus for luck and an adventurous and impulsive streak.

 The wedding chart (time unknown) has a musical though perhaps unrealistic Sun opposition Neptune; which is luckily balanced by a steady Jupiter trine Saturn. Though the yod of Neptune sextile Uranus inconjunct Mars in Scorpio may cause a few teething troubles through 2026 as tr Pluto squares the Mars.

   Her own personal chart hints at a quiet, private year ahead with her Jupiter and Progressed Moon moving through her 12^th. With her Pluto in her 4^th house of domestic and family matters  being unsettled in 2026/27 by Solar Arc Neptune Uranus in square to Pluto.

 She’ll bounce out in good spirits when Jupiter crosses her Ascendant from August 2026 onwards.

Sir Tony Blair wants to run Gaza once the war between Israel and Hamas is over – runs a surreal headline which evidently has the backing of the White House. He has the support of several powerful figures, including Jared Kushner, and Steve Witkoff, the US president’s special envoy. He would head an interim government in Gaza with a UN mandate as the “supreme political and legal authority” for five years, on the proviso that power eventually would be handed over to the Palestinian Authority. He would not support any proposal that displaced the people of Gaza.

 After his departure from Westminster in 2007 post the Iraq debacle from which he has never recovered, he became Middle East envoy for eight years and resigned with little progress made.

 Relocating his chart to Gaza/Israel does little that looks effective with his exuberant Mars Jupiter pushed deeper into his 12^th and nothing much notable on his relocated Midheaven, bar a Mars square – which will be exacerbated by tr Uranus conjunct Mars and square the Midheaven in 2026/27 = explosive, insecure, rattled. He has his Progressed Mars square his Saturn now and into 2026 which indicate setbacks; with emotional and career discouragement in 2027/28 with his 10^th house Moon in its Solar Arc position opposing his Neptune and Saturn.

 His relationship with Trump has a friendly composite Sun, Venus, Mercury conjunction though that squares Saturn  – and all will be jolted and jangled by tr Uranus in hard aspect from now till 2028; with a nerve-stretched tr Saturn Neptune square his Uranus now and into 2026.

 Blair’s relationship with Netanyahu which is explosive and distrusting at best will be sagging badly with tr Neptune Saturn opposition the composite Saturn in 2026. His relationship with Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestine Authority, leader is not much better.

 Cuckoos flying, clockwork orange – in this post-reality world anything is possible but Blair’s ego trip/messiah complex is startling to behold.

James Comey, former FBI director, has been indicted on one count of making false statements and another of obstruction of justice, which is widely believed to be the latest example of Trump targeting critics based on a sense of personal grievance and retribution. He called on Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute not just the former FBI director but also New York Attorney General Letitia James and California Senator Adam Schiff – figures he has accused of conspiring against him. The federal prosecutor who had been investigating Comey and James resigned amid the pressure, and was replaced by a former personal lawyer to Trump.

“This is unprecedented, to have the president basically direct his people to indict a specific individual because he’s angry at that person,” Laurie Levenson, a law professor at Loyola Marymount University, told the BBC.

Comey maintains he is innocent and will prove that in court. Both counts relate to his video appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee in September 2020, being questioned about his handling of the Clinton email case and another investigation on pro-Trump election interference by Russia.

 Comey, born 14 December 1960, no birth time, New York, has his Sagittarius Sun conjunct Trump’s Moon and South Node opposition DT’s Sun which might suggest an overly emotional interaction and one which pulls Trump back into his less evolved self. But the real problem comes from Comey’s Uranus conjunct DT’s Mars in Leo for an explosive interface; and Comey’s Pluto falling in DT’s 1^st house giving him the ability to control or damage Trump’s image.

 Their relationship chart hints – perhaps – at some relief of tension over the winter with tr Uranus opposition the composite Jupiter – in December and mid March for three weeks. Though thereafter it heats up into a no-win standoff with an enraged frustrated tr Pluto opposition the composite Mars from spring 2026 till late 2027.

 Comey’s personal chart with its disciplined, tough-minded, short-tempered, can-be-unlucky Saturn opposition Mars having moved by Solar Arc to clash with his Sun from the election last year and through till 2027. His Solar Arc Neptune will conjunct his Saturn for a time of high uncertainty also late 2026/27.

 Comey will not be relaxing any time soon.

Menzies Campbell, a prominent Liberal Democrat, whose expertise in foreign affairs brought clashes with Tony Blair over Iraq and helped his party secure a surge of seats in the aftermath, has died.

 Born 22 May 1941 at 1.40 am Glasgow, he read law at Glasgow university at the same time as John Smith, the future Labour leader, Donald Dewar, later the first minister in the Scottish government and Derry Irvine, later Lord Chancellor. He was also a top class sprinter, representing GB in the 200 metres and the 100-metre relay team at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. In 1967, he twice ran 100 metres in 10.2 seconds — a record which legend says led to him being termed the “fastest white man on the planet”.

  He was well regarded in politics as an elder statesmen but proved less capable as party leader. He served as MP for North-East Fife in Scotland for 28 years from 1987. His wife of 53 years, Elspeth died in 2023.

 He had a communicative 4^th house Gemini Sun conjunct Jupiter Uranus in Taurus trine Neptune in Virgo in the 8^th – lucky but not obviously an ambitious high flyer. His sociable Venus in Gemini in his entertaining and sporting 5^th house ruled his 9^th house of international affairs.

  His Mars in Pisces was inconjunct Pluto sextile his Libra North Node – which would help with his competitive athletic career but proved less able to handle the cut and thrust of political leadership.

  When he was was elected head of the LibDems his Solar Arc Neptune was opposition his Uranus, moving on to oppose his Uranus/Jupiter midpoint, which would be undermining; with a pressured SA Sun square his Pluto on one leg of his Martian yod. When he resigned 22 months later tr Saturn was opposition his focal point Mars.

 It was an unfortunate blip in an otherwise exemplary career.

France is in disarray with its final degree Virgo Sun in crisis as it reels from the shade cast by this week’s Solar Eclipse with yet another cross to bear as former president Nicolas Sarkozy is sentenced to five years in jail – the first ever for a former French president. He has been found guilty of criminal conspiracy in a case related to millions of euros of illicit funds from the late Libyan leader Gaddafi. The ruling means he will spend time in jail even if he launches an appeal.

  Since losing his re-election bid in 2012, Sarkozy has been targeted by several criminal investigations including overspending on his 2012 re-election campaign; and trying to bribe a judge.

  Born 28 January 1955 10 pm Paris, he has an entertaining 5^th house Aquarius Sun; a pro-active and argumentative Mars Moon in Aries in his 7^th; a lucky though can be opportunistic Jupiter Uranus conjunct in his career 10^th; and a beyond-obstinate and self-willed Pluto opposition Mercury square Saturn. His evasive Neptune square Uranus Jupiter, trine Mercury, falls in his 2^nd house of finances.

 At the moment the Solar Eclipse is conjunct his Descendant and tr Neptune Saturn are moving just above it unsettling his relationships (and social standing). His Solar Arc Neptune is square his Mars at the moment for a sense of sinking failure and dashed hopes. With heavy pressures in 2027 from SA Pluto square his Sun.

 His wife Carla Bruni, 23 December 1967 6.10pm Turin, Italy, a singer and former fashion model, is also under judicial supervision after being charged with putting pressure on a witness.

 She has a 6^th house Capricorn Sun square a 10^th house Saturn in Aries opposition a 4^th house Uranus in final degree Virgo – which last is being elbowed by this week’s Solar Eclipse.  Her Progressed Mars is square her Sun, her Solar Arc Midheaven is opposition her Neptune; the Solar Eclipse is conjunct her IC for a domestic upheaval; and she is heading for her Second Saturn Return in early 2026. A calamity and catastrophe requiring a serious revisioning of her life ahead.  

Dark murmurings about plummeting respect and support for the Monarchy with continuing contamination from the Epstein scandal are reinforced by King Charles’ refusal to banish Andrew from public view. Piling on the damage will be the new Norman Baker book on royal finances:  Royal Mint, National Debt: More Things the Royals Don’t Want You to Know published next month.

 With a country sagging under welfare debt and rising taxation, the obfuscations around the Monarchy’s money matters won’t wash for much longer. No inheritance tax is paid. The duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster do not pay corporation tax or capital gains tax. According to Norman Baker Prince William’s Duchy of Cornwall is no better than a ‘medieval slush fund’, which gives him an income of £24m a year.

 There are three astrological ways of viewing the UK monarchy – the first is the UK 1801 chart itself with its 10^th house Cancer Moon, generally regarded as a pointer to the Royal Family.

 The second is the House of Windsor chart, 17 July 1917, the name change from ‘Saxe-Coburg and Gotha’ due to anti-German sentiment during the First World War.

The third is the start of the Hanoverian monarchy with Geroge ! crowned 1 August 1714. For some odd reason it appears to have ceased when Victoria’s son, Edward VII succeeded in 1901 as head of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. But the original chart will hold good.

 What is intriguing is that 2031 is highlighted on all three charts as a moment of change under pressure. The UK chart has the Solar Arc Pluto square the 10^th house Moon then as well as tr Pluto in Aquarius square the 8^th house UK Mars.

 The House of Windsor has the Solar Arc Pluto square its Cancerian Sun in 2031 as well.

 The Hanoverian monarchy looks seriously stressed from 2029 right through to the mid 2030s with the Solar Arc Saturn conjunct the Mars in final decan Cancer in 2029, with the SA Saturn/Pluto exerting extreme pressure around 2031 moving on to a dead halt SA Pluto conjunct Mars in 2035; plus tr Pluto opposition the Leo Sun in 2035/36.

 The House of Windsor and Hanover charts point to disruption and upheavals before then. Windsor has tr Pluto opposition the Saturn Neptune in early Leo and tr Neptune Saturn square the Pluto (Moon) over coming years; with the SA Neptune Saturn square the Uranus in 2028/29. Hanover has an insecure, rattled SA Uranus conjunct Mars now. The UK’s Solar Arc Moon will catch the tr Uranus square before the end of this decade.

 Prince William who evidently has plans for a slimmed down, modernised monarchy, is looking undermined till early 2028 with tr Neptune (Saturn) square his New Moon in Cancer. With tr Neptune opposition his Mars in 2029/30 and then opposition his Saturn in 2031 – which will be an extended phase of high uncertainty.

 There was a theory that since Prince William was born on a Solar Eclipse whose Saros series ends in 2036 that he would be the last monarch. I’m not sure whether that holds good. Previous Eclipses in this series which fell in 2000 and 2018 coincided with his gap year before university; and Prince Louis being born. So not exactly startling.

  By 2036 tr Uranus in mid Cancer is approaching a conjunction the the UK 10^th house Moon and a square to Prince William’s Saturn in Libra.  William’s 2037 Solar Return looks fairly grim with Pluto Midheaven opposition Saturn in his 4^th – but that could be external pressures from the war-or-hardship-associated Saturn Pluto.  Though tr Pluto moving through his 2^nd house of money opposition Saturn in his 8^th does suggest a downturn in his finances.  

I would be more than sorry to see the monarchy go though they are their own worst enemy especially where their wealth is concerned. William is less money-minded than Charles, his grandmother Queen Elizabeth or indeed his great grandmother, the famously profligate ‘Queen Mother.’ So he presumably would be willing to scale back and downsize. 

Norman Baker, 26 July 1957, has his disruptive Sun Uranus in Leo conjunction sitting on King Charles’ Ascendant and his controlling/influential Pluto sitting in Charles’ 2^nd house of finances so he will have the urge and ability to cause considerable upset both to Charles’ image and his finances.

 Baker’s Sun, Uranus, Mars, Mercury, Pluto all sit in William’s 8^th with Baker’s Neptune on his Midheaven – so as above though in a different way.  His relationship chart with Williams is not wonderful but is less hostile and damaging than with Charles.

Claudia Cardinale who has died aged 87, had looks, smouldering Italian intensity  and a  quirky intelligence which made her prized by European directors for Rocco and His Brothers,  Girl with a Suitcase, Visconti’s The Leopard and Federico Fellini’s 8½. She was then persuaded over to Hollywood for The Pink Panther opposite David Niven; and went onto make many other hits including the Sergio Leone Western Once Upon a Time in the West and Werner Herzog’s Fitzcarraldo.

 In her personal life she lived for 42 years with her partner,  Pasquale Squitieri, and had two children. Outspoken on women’s rights causes over the years, she was a UNESCO goodwill ambassador for the Defence of Women’s Rights.

 Born 15 April 1938 at 8.30am Tunis, with Sicilian parents, she originally intended to become a teacher.

 She had a controlled, creative and private 12^th house Aries Sun square a 4^th house Pluto; with her Pluto sextile Mars Algol in Taurus in her 1^st and inconjunct Jupiter giving her extra-determination and a hint of ferocity. An earthy, distinctive Uranus Venus conjunction in Taurus sat on her Ascendant with her Scorpio Moon in opposition; and her filmic Neptune in her  performing 5^th house.

 Relocating her chart to Hollywood put her Neptune conjunct the Midheaven. With her Sun in the entertaining 5^th house.

Another golden oldie gone.

Javier Milei, the Argentinian president, former eccentric TV pundit, is in trouble with his chainsaw economics faltering, his sister embroiled in a corruption scandal and his political rivals circling with a recent landslide defeat in local elections with midterms approaching in late October.

  On the global right, he is an icon, a rock star president. Elon Musk called him a “beacon of hope”. President Trump hailed him as a “hero”. Kemi Badenoch sees him as the “template” for all conservative leaders. He has closed nine of 18 ministries, laid off 48,000 public sector workers and the state news agency has been shut.

He has brought inflation down but according to economists that is a “mirage” as a result of keeping the peso’s value artificially strong, hurting economic growth, sucking in imports and preventing Argentina from building the stock of dollars it needs to repay a mountain of foreign debt. He is refusing to ditch libertarian reforms since evidently his core belief is that compromise is failure.

  Scott Bessent, the US treasury secretary, said that the US “stands ready to do what is needed within its mandate to support Argentina” as Milei seeks an emergency credit line of up to $30 billion from the US.

 Milei’s Term started 10 December 2023  at 11.56 am Buenos Aires, with an ambitious and outspoken 10^th house Mars in Sagittarius conjunct the Sun which is in an unfortunate square to delusional Neptune in Pisces. There is a superficially amiable Jupiter in Taurus opposition Venus square a control-freak Pluto. With Uranus opposition the Scorpio Moon, hinting at an electorate not in tune with extremist ideas. The Jupiter also trines Mercury for confidence  but sextiles onto an impractical 12^th house Saturn in Pisces.

 The Moon has moved by Solar Arc to oppose the Uranus exactly this year.

  His personal chart, 22 October 1970 11.59 pm Buenos Aires, has a 4^th house family-oriented Libra Sun and a flamboyant though not realistic Leo Moon in his 2^nd house of finances. Where he gets his do-or-die determination with failure not-an-option approach is his intense Pluto in Virgo in his 3^rd conjunct Mars in early Libra. Plus he has a super-confident Jupiter as well as Venus Neptune  all in Scorpio in his entertaining 5^th house.

  The Virgo Solar Eclipse is conjunct his Pluto this year as his power-base crumbles. With tr Saturn Neptune opposition his Pluto and Mars for major setbacks now, across the winter into 2026; followed by a catastrophic 2027 as his SA Pluto is conjunct his Venus and his SA Mars in conjunct his Neptune.

 The Bank of Argentina, 28 May 1935 looks disrupted and unnerved ahead with tr Pluto continuing to square the Uranus through 2026; tr Uranus in a jolting conjunction to the Sun after mid 2026 into 2027; and an outright panic about failure in 2027/28 as tr Neptune opposes the Mars.

  Trump/Milei economics do not appear to be paying off.

Previous post: November 20 2023

Javier Milei, the right-wing libertarian oddball, Trump and Bolsonaro admirer, has won a clear victory in the Argentina elections which some political analysts say is a reflection of the electorate’s desperation for change rather than support of his far-right ideology. He has promised to cut back the Argentinian state to its bare minimum and introduce radical economic reforms. Elon Musk said on hearing of the victory “prosperity is ahead for Argentina,” which just goes to show how warped his judgement is.

  Failed economic policies have left Argentina, one of the world’s most perpetually unstable economies, in one of its worst crises yet. Annual inflation is above 140 percent — the third highest rate in the world. More than two in five Argentines live in poverty and the value of the currency has plummeted downwards.

  There is nothing in any of the charts to suggest the redeemer has arrived, quite the opposite – details from earlier post 17 August below.  He will be sworn in as president on December 10 which has a lacklustre, impractical Sun square  Neptune, never a good sign for an administration. With a superficially showy Jupiter opposition Venus and a reforming Uranus trine Pluto.

  His own chart, 22 October 1970 12.59pm Buenos Aires (birth certificate) will flounder with tr Neptune opposition his Pluto Mars conjunction in 2024/2025 and even before then tr Pluto square his Sun for the next 14 months and tr Uranus squaring his hope-for-a-better-society Saturn opposition Venus Neptune this year right through till 2025.

  The Argentina 25 May 1810 chart and the Bank of Argentina chart 28 May 1935 are both highly Mutable chart with Gemini Suns and a raft of other Sagittarius, Pisces and Virgo planets – all of which will be deflated by tr Saturn in Pisces through into 2025.

 Oddly enough Milei’s relationship chart with Argentina is relatively upbeat in essence with a composite Sun Jupiter trine Pluto so he obviously brings enthusiasm and hope to the table. Though 2026 will bring a more hostile mood when tr Pluto opposes the composite Mars.

Post August 17 2023

In desperate financial straits – again – Argentina threw up an ultra-conservative oddball in the dress rehearsal for the late October general election. Javier Milei, who won over 30 per cent of the vote, is ‘a rightwing libertarian who campaigns like a rock star, lives alone with five mastiffs named after famous liberal economists and claims not to have brushed his hair since he was 13 (he is 52).’

  Whoever wins they will inherit a catastrophic economic situation with central bank almost out of reserves and heavy restrictions on foreign exchange. Inflation is running at around 115% and nearly 40 per cent of the population live below the poverty line. A severe drought has exacerbated problems, which the government has used as an excuse for missing all of IMF’s targets for its lifeline programme. Another default looms.

  Milei, born 22 October 1970 in Buenos Aires, has a late Libra Sun with a ferociously determined Pluto conjunct Mars; and a head-in-the-clouds, moody, insecure and ambivalent Venus Neptune in Scorpio opposition Saturn in Taurus.  His Sun sits on his Neptune/Pluto midpoint which is associated with the supernatural or fantastical beliefs.

  His Jupiter in Scorpio caught the recent Lunar Eclipse which would give him a lift. The general election falls on his birthday with tr Jupiter opposition his Jupiter. A win is not inevitable and he looks to be in a degree of turmoil immediately following and in 2024 – though that would be true even if he did win.

  The Argentina 25 May 1810 country chart with its Gemini Sun Mars opposition Neptune Saturn in Sagittarius square Pisces Moon Pluto – will be dragged down to earth by tr Saturn in Pisces through 2023/24. The recent Lunar Eclipse rattled the Uranus in Scorpio hinting that a change of course was badly needed.

 It is not quite as dire as the 2001 default which happened on the Saturn in Sagittarius opposition Pluto square Mars; and the Solar Arc Pluto squaring the financial Venus in the run up. But it will require considerable sacrifices.

  The Bank of Argentina, 28 May 1935, another Gemini Sun square Saturn opposition Neptune, will face a surfeit of Saturn reality checks as well in 2023/24; and a pressured Solar Arc Pluto square the financial Venus. Again not quite as catastrophic as the 2001 default  when the Solar Arc Mars squared Neptune and rattled up the T Square with Sun and Saturn; and the tr Saturn opposition tr Pluto added its later of woe.
