A corruption scandal involving Heinz-Christian Strache, Vice Chancellor of Austria, has led to a snap election being called for September. He was videoed along with a colleague from his far-right Freedom Party talking to a woman who claimed to be a wealthy Russian national looking to invest in Austria. She offered to buy a 50% stake in an Austrian newspaper and switch its editorial position to support their party. Strache said he wanted to “build a media landscape like [Victor] Orban”, a reference to Hungary’s authoritarian prime minister. In exchange he could award her public construction contracts.
Strache, born 12 June 1969, maybe 5.45am Wien, Austria, has an ego-centric Gemini Sun on the point of a scattered Mutable T Square to a super-confident Pluto Jupiter (Uranus) in Virgo opposition North Node in Pisces. It’s a fairly tumultuous chart; with an argumentative Mercury in Gemini opposition Mars; and a, indulgent and stubborn Moon plus Venus Saturn in Taurus.
If the time is roughly right then tr Neptune is conjunct his midheaven and tr Uranus conjunct his Solar Arc Midheaven around now which makes sense of his exit from power. Plus tr Uranus is moving to conjunct his Saturn Venus next month for a jolt and an emotional shock.
Strache started life as a dental technician, was a disciple of the neo-Nazi Jorg Haider before splitting and taking over the anti-immigrant party, pushing it further right.

Nobody yet knows where he got this data from, but Viennese astrologer Stefan Weber used 19:23 in 2007.

Thank you, Marjorie. Neptune, the dissolver, and also lies, on the MC makes total sense. As does transiting Uranus on solar-arc MC. You wrote about Kurz, Kern, Strache, and Austria around the previous elections – worth reading again:

Geminis and totaliatarism – here’s a connection very few astrologers seem to have spottef, but is fairly reaccuring. I suppose it’s Neptune in Pisces squaring Gemini planets that gives people an impression these types can be trusted.
And Aquarians ditto – Jorg Haider was a triple Aquarius. Air can be very ideological
Yes, but I think the dark side of Aquarian fascination with ideologies is better documented overall. Geminis, on the other hand, are supposed to be more frivolous, often seen as opportunistic charmers. However, we’re seeing more Geminis stepping up and falling down lately for a cause, which would indicate Neptune could be involved.
