For fun and to take your mind off the Brexit drama, how about looking at the charts of the three leading Spitzenkandidaten (candidates for EU Commission President)?
EPP – Manfred Weber – born 14 July 1972, in Landshut, Bavaria, Germany
S&D – Franz Timmermans – born 6 May 1961 in Maastricht, Netherlands
ALDE – Guy Verhofstadt – born 11 April 1953 in Dendermonde, Belgium
(Dates and place information from Wikipedia)
While they are the leading candidates for the post of EC President, it is possible for the European Council to propose an alternative person, though the European Parliament must approve the nomination.
As the new European Parliament will come into being on 2nd July, I would imagine that the jockeying for the EU Commission President post will start soon thereafter, though it may take the rest of the summer and possibly autumn to work out. So, it would be great if you can look at their charts over the summer and autumn.
Also Michel Barnier – born 9 January 1951 in La Tronche, France, who may be a dark horse candidate.
Juncker might try to stay on if Brexit is delayed. Will leave until a definite date turns up. Definitely not Barnier who has tr Neptune conjunct his MC from this May onwards till late 2020 – so floundering.
Hello Marjorie, Please would you mind looking at Keir Starmer? (Labour Party). Both intellectually and actively, he seem a powerful force. With thanks.
Marjorie wrote in passing on Keir Starmer in her post on the Labour Party on 24th September 2018.
“He has tr Uranus conjunct his Solar Arc Jupiter from April 2019 for a few weeks; plus a confidently successful tr Pluto trine his Jupiter/Node also from April 2019, on and off till late 2020; and picking up another couple of Jupiters in 2020.”
Dear Marjorie,
Thanks for all your work on the principal players of Brexit, but would it be possible to turn the spotlight onto the long suffering, gobsmacked people of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland? How are they likely to react in the forthcoming (presumably) elections and referenda, as well as when the endless play in the Westminster theatre concludes in some sort of ending, if indeed, it ever does. And now the blame game has begun, how about the effect on the EU and its problems, let alone the ‘relationship’ to follow?
Many thanks,
Zita
The answer is I’ve utterly no idea. The individual country charts are pretty ancient apart from Ireland and anyway don’t throw up much info, having had a look. Nor does the UK joining chart of 1973.
The Labour Party says TMay hasn’t budged an inch (there’s a surprise) while Hammond says there are no red lines. All a monumental FU – and the astrology is being less than helpful.
Hello Marjorie
Do you have any thoughts on the Julián Assange story? There are strong indications he is about to be chucked out of the embassy. What are his long term prospects, f you have time to look? Thanks Alex
Theresa May is apparently asking for an extension of Article 50 to 30 June 2019. That is going to be very close to that 2 July 2019 Eclipse opposite the UK 1801 Sun. Some astrologers mention eclipses as time when things are being hidden from public view. One wonders what will be going on then. I have also seen suggestions that whatever is done under that eclipse is going to be exposed in 2020 with some unpleasant consequences for all involved.
Never heard about Eclipses hiding stuff. What can happen is they get ignored and the necessary changes they are demanding aren’t made. This precipitates a crisis in the months following which forces through changes which it would have been more beneficial to volunteer for in the first place.
It’s just endless – kicking the can down the road.
I think the bit I read was along the lines of
“Eclipses in Cancer bring political changes, incite men to violate treaties and take up arms, and cause deceit and cunning among men in high office. Navigation and sea travel is dangerous; rivers dry, and there is an increase of sicknesses affecting the stomach. (Scotland, Holland, Africa, Venice, Amsterdam and York.)”
To be honest I am as bemused as everyone else about what is going on. The voting swings in the Newport West By Election suggest all the main political parties are now going to be cautious about callung an early General Election.
I second bemused.
US energy /climate change policy:
“if you have a windmill anywhere near your house, congratulations, your house just went down 75% in value,” he said. “And they say the noise causes cancer. You tell me that one, OK?”
I predict that all across the Dakotas we’ll see cancer-laced generations of people…and cattle. Wind-driven generators as far as the eye can see. All those poor cattle…there must be something odd in those cheeseburgers he is eating. His entire base also eats what he eats.
Marjorie,
I was wondering if you had any astrological insights regarding the human rights abuses currently taking place in Brunei? I recently read in the news that Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, as well as the govt. of Brunei intend to start enforcing the death penalty for adultery and homosexuality. I also read that many celebrities such as: George Clooney, Nancy Sinatra, Billie Jean King, Ellen DeGeneres, and Elton John as well as various human rights activists plan to “boycott” all of the international hotels owned by Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah in protest to his harsh laws against women and Brunei’s LGBTQ+ community.
Astrologically speaking, how does the status of women and LGBTQ+ people in Brunei look in the near future? Do things appear to be getting worse for them…or will the international outcries, boycotts, and resistance force Brunei to reevaluate it’s harsh laws?
Any information, insights, or thoughts you could share would be greatly appreciated. As always, thank you for all that you do.

Good evening there Marjorie!
I see that Doris Day is 97 today, born 3/4/1922 at 16.30p.m., in Cincinatti, OH.
Not sure if you covered here before, so thought I’d ask!
Good evening Marjorie,
I refer to next week’s Election in Israel and realise you have covered Netanyahu extensively and also Benny Gantz.
I see that former Prime Minister Ehud Barak, who is Israel’s most decorated soldier is leading the Labor Party
and was wondering what his outlook looks like? Was born 12 February 1942 at 3.00 a.m., in Mishmar HaSharon in
old Mandatory Palestine now Israel.
Thank you if you look into!
Had a quick look. Nothing much showing up on his chart – there are a staggering number of parties.
Israel has an almost pure proportional representation electoral system, with a minimum threshold of just 3.25% (since 2014). Any party or alliance of parties getting at least 3.25% is guarenteed seats in the Knesset (3.25% is about 4 seats in the 120 seat Knesset). However, because the threshold is so low, the formation and ongoing stability of the government is quite volatile.
The closer one is to pure proportional representation, the closer a legislature-based government system is likely to fail.
It would not have the same effect in an executive elected independently of the legislature, such as in the US or France.
Hi Marjorie,
Any thoughts on the Sultan of Brunei born 15 July 1946 given current events/news?
Born in Istana Darussallam, Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei.
Thank you if you look into!
I would like to know more about this too.
Hi Marjorie, It was the 21st March, your edit about Fire Monkey.
Hello Marjorie,
You were right. Teresa May fire monkey. She’s pulled up a new unexpected trick and is on her mission. And surprised us all.
With thanks for your time.
“I was there many, many years ago,” the president said of the European Union, which was not founded until 1993. “Meaning, my parents were born in the European Union. I love these countries; Germany, Scotland, they are still in there, right?”
It was also Apple’s birthday on 1 April, it seems. 43-years-old.
Oh, look: it’s Nigel Farage’s birthday today. So his solar return, too.
Algerian president steps down amid protests, army pressure.
I was news surfing and watched the events on French news.

That sounds like his luck may be on the up.
