New Zealand – on the brink of a major series of changes

New Zealand is facing a raft of domestic discontent with economic woes top of the list – the rich poor gap, unemployment, housing shortages amongst others as well as environmental issues.

The 17 January 1853 12am chart does have tr Saturn moving through the financial 2nd till 2018 which would indicate shortage of personal spending power. This year tr Uranus squares the Cancer Midheaven which would suggest a significant change in direction for the country.

The really key influences which are major, running from 2015 to 2022, suggest that the groundswell of public opinion or outer events will push the country into a bumpy few years of radical change and jolts.

Tr Uranus which has been conjunct the 6th house Aries Moon recently, is moving on to square the NZ Sun Mars in Capricorn in 2017 at the same time as tr Pluto starts a two year square to the Moon. So some shocks, upheavals, insecurity and an emotionally intense population (Moon), which is keen to sweep away the rubbish of the past.

There may be outright rebellion or a radical shift in 2018 as tr Uranus squares the 6th house Pluto. There will be a small bounce in 2018 from tr Jupiter crossing the Ascendant, to promote a more confident image for the country.

Tr Pluto will oppose the MC and move into the 4th from 2020 bringing a sense of domestic resentment and change, again a pulling away from the past and perhaps a divided population. The sweep of radical change will run on till 2022 when tr Uranus clears the conjunction to Uranus Saturn in Taurus.  The Uranus Return in 2019/20 may bring a movement to return NZ to its roots.

The NZ government were the first to step in after the Brexit vote to offer the help of NZ trade negotiators.

Tr Uranus has moved a complete half cycle since the UK joined the EEC in 1973 which caused considerable upset in New Zealand. In the aftermath NZ went through a similarly unsettled few years with tr Uranus then in Libra square the NZ Sun Mars and opposition Pluto. Though what lies ahead till 2022 will be more testing since tr Pluto is also involved.

This time round with UK reversing out of the EU, it could open up new possibilities for both countries. Though there’ll be confusion through this Oct/Nov – and more of an attempt in 2017/18 to alter diplomatic and other relationships.
