More than 100,000 people crowded into London yesterday for one of the UK’s largest ever Right-wing rallies organized by Tommy Robinson; with cheer-leading from Katie Hopkins, Lawrence Fox and Elon Musk (on video). Twenty-six police officers were injured, including four seriously as supporters “kicked and punched” officers. 25 people have been arrested for offences including affray, violent disorder, assaults and criminal damage.
Robinson has been active in far-right politics for many years on an anti-Islam crusade and has served five prison terms between 2005 and 2025. In 2013, he illegally entered the USA using a friend’s passport; in 2018 he violated a court order by publishing a Facebook Live video of defendants entering court; in 2021, he was subjected to a five-year stalking prevention order for harassing the journalist Lizzie Dearden and her partner and was found to have libelled a 15-year-old refugee in Huddersfield and was ordered to pay £100,000 plus legal costs. After breaching an injunction about repeating the libel, he was sentenced to 18 months in prison for contempt of court in October 2024. He has admitted to gambling before declaring bankruptcy; and owed a considerable sum to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), as well as to creditors. (wiki).
Born 27 November 1982 in Luton, he has a rebellious and rabble-rousing Sun, Uranus, Mercury, Venus conjunct in Sagittarius with Neptune also in Sagittarius and an Aries Moon. His Moon is possibly/probably opposition Pluto Saturn in Libra square Mars in Capricorn adding an exponentially aggressive streak to his personality. His ambitious and forceful focal point Mars is doubly emphasised being his only Earth in a ‘hot air’ Fire Air chart.
His Mercury is conjunct the Fixed star Antares which tends to make the individual headstrong, tough, belligerent, pugnacious and destructive to themselves by their own obstinacy. Has a suspicious attitude and can make wrongful accusations.
His Chiron is conjunct Algol which could suggest that a tendency to destroy is his Achilles’ Heel. His unhealable wound is an attraction to darkness and risk. There will be a positive end to it but clearly he hasn’t found it yet. His Cancer North Node suggests the same – that empathy is his spiritual path if he can get onto it.
At the moment he’s revved up with his Progressed Mars square his Jupiter – in a reckless mood keen to utilise the prevailing mood. Mars Jupiter has a tendency to go on crusades and to dress aggression up in idealistic or moral garb. But by 2026/27 his Solar Arc Sun Uranus will conjunct his Mars for an almighty eruption which suggests he could go way over the top – and indeed be at some risk himself. This all runs alongside his tr Uranus opposition his Sun Uranus for his midlife crisis – hinting that either a) a change of direction is needed or b) he’ll double up on his ungovernable stance and end up running out of road.
His alleged connection to Israel would fit astrologically since his Saturn Pluto conjunct sits on the Israel Ascendant; and his Neptune is conjunct the Israel Jupiter opposition Uranus; his Chiron Algol are conjunct the Israel Taurus Sun; and his Cancer North Node is conjunct the Israel Venus.
It is less clear how he connects to the UK – except that his Uranus Sun Mercury fall in the UK 3rd house which rules everyday communications, neighbours, communities etc. And squares the UK Pluto which will give a tendency to cause disruption to the established order. His afflicted focal point Mars also falls in the UK domestic 4th so he will focus his anger on what he sees is wrong with the internal foundations of the UK.
Tommy Robinson is loved by many English people who feel marginalised and their cultural Christianity is being taken away as schools drop Easter and Christmas let alone religious assemblies. Their worling class Christian culture is being removed. You can be harsh about him but he stands up for his principles and he voiced about the racially motivated rape of up to half a million working class white girls which was hushed up for political correctness long before anyone else did . The numbers at the march were close to half a million it was 110000 in the designated areas Tommys Christian faith is growing so perhaps that fits astrologically Marjorie
A quick calculation puts Tommy Robinson’s Sun/Mars midpoint 27;degrees in Sagittarius, which is conjunct Israel’s Jupiter and near is Neptune. I am just reading.a book which describes Argol by the Indians as “Al Ghul” the Demon’s Head, the Chinese “Tsieh she” – piled up corpses. Also the ancient Hebrews called Algol, Lliith- which apparently is the nocturnal vampire, who was seen as Adam’s first wife? Marjorie writes about his crusade. The Labour Party was elected under Algol last July. In some way he may be fired up by one political party appearing, not necessarily so, but appearing to back Islam over Israel by allowing the constant Marches in London? With all those planets in Sagittarius, especially Neptune. As well as is Sun/Jupiter midpoint circa 16 degrees of Sagittarius, which is also its Ruler and possibly opposite his Moon, he does appear to be very driven.
The composite chart between Tommy Robinson and the UK is interesting – Marjorie posted this on 28th May, 2018. What caught my attention was Mars, 15 Pisces – which has just seen the Lunar Eclipse this month. All kinds of emotional, victim/saviour, anger there possibly?
Then the composite Saturn/Jupiter conjunction is 26 and 27 Virgo. The approaching Solar Eclipse connects with that, while Saturn and Jupiter suggest law and legal matters amongst other things.
February’s approaching Solar Eclipse in Aquarius will be conjunct the 29 Aquarius Chiron. Not sure how to interpret this, but it could be interesting, and have a ‘mass’ population theme? There’s also the Saturnian side of Aquarius to wonder about too. Authoritarian moves and emotional themes might be expected from both rabble-rousers and the government?
The outer planets of the composite will all be energised by transits too. Pluto is 0 Capricorn, Uranus 3 Scorpio, Neptune 7 Sagittarius.
There is a very sensible piece by Trevor Phillips in the Times today.
“Dismiss Unite the Kingdom march at your peril
Calling this movement the product of extremist rabble-rousers will no longer do. Mainstream politicians must wake up
The overwhelming majority of the crowds waving flags and carrying crosses weren’t there for a fight. But they do have a cause. The angry protests outside asylum hotels are now metastasising into a simpler, broader message: stop immigration, defend free speech, revive Christianity. It is a compelling trinity for a country that feels angry and unmoored.
The very blandness of the march slogan — Unite the Kingdom — allows people to place their own emphasis on the emerging movement. Some stress the appeal to freedom, others to culture. But many in Britain are so furious with the failures of conventional politics that they are ready to embrace extremism, as long as it can claim to be untainted by orthodoxy.”
Thanks Marjorie – I’ve yet to read Trevor Philips’ piece but agree it sounds very sensible. There’s been much free-floating anger around for years now, perhaps exacerbated by the pandemic lockdowns, fear, and sense of loss and grief amongst many people.
Not sure, astrologically, what best describes the way both politicians and organisations choose to ignore or dismiss people. “We know best” is clearly not working anymore. Certainly the House of Commons chart with its Aquarius and Taurus stubborn stelliums might struggle with flexibility! Plus, the building itself – which I’ve visited – is such a crumbling gothic, mouse-infested fantasy, it seems to seep into the minds of every politician inside it. Mostly, they seem woefully out of touch. The HoC chart does have the Aquarian Sun opposing Neptune, perhaps that goes some way towards describing the situation?
It seems to be much the same in the US certainly where the Democrats are concerned since they seem unable to connect to people’s genuine concerns.
Except Mamdani has.
Of course the billionaires and Establishment Democrats would rather call him a socialist or communist than actually proposing alternative solutions to the cost of living issues
They did a fantastic job connecting with the base of the Dem party-Black women. KH earned 92% of the BW vote. That is extraordinary. And I believe 88% of Jewish people voted for KH, as well. So, the Dem message def resonated with these groups. And Dems won college educated voters by a wide margin.
These protestors claim to be Christians? What teachings of Christ are they actively promoting? Certainly not welcome the stranger and not to help the marginalized and oppressed as Jesus strongly advocated. Strange.
But wasn’t this what Brexit was supposed to solve, but it has made everything worse yet people keep scapegoating marginalized groups instead of the billionaires who control politicians like puppets.
Just like Republicans in America the more they take from certain Americans the more they get ducked into the culture wars nonsense but those same people have no problem with Elon Musk stealing all of our government data for reasons unknown.
People need to hold themselves accountable for the choices that they have and own the results.
The Afterlife of BREXIT. Yikes!
His Sun/ Uranus in Sag is conjunct the UK’s Chiron (which is in a square to Pluto in Pisces) – perhaps highlighting sensitivities around international movement, immigration, and the impact of different cultures on the UK.
Perhaps also highlighting that part of the UK’s ‘wound’ is about racism in a significant chunk of the population. Think about the horrors and the impacts of colonialism, and the double standards and hypocrisy.
Chiron in Sagittarius in the second house (square Pluto) is interesting – the UK was the largest empire, engaged in extensive economic exploitation overseas.
Tommy Robinson’s Sun Uranus in Sagittarius also squares UK’s Pluto in Pisces.
I think there is a huge difference between the UK’s Parliament/Leaders and the British European people. As many in the UK were treated badly as well. Think of the penal ships to Australia. Prisoners were placed and transported in horrendous conditions, in fact the first ship used to export them, was a Slave Ship, to Africa, with none of the prisoners surviving. The industrial Revolution is also seen to be on the back of the Empire too. Almost ignoring the conditions of the British workers and their living standards by some owners – not all! Perhaps this is where many feel aggrieved in this country? As not all benefited by the Empire. Yet are seen to be, when it comes to appeasement for the “ children of the Empire moving to a Britain. There is feeling of being scapegoated and many think they have been made to look the racist? Pay for the Empire with their homeland? Maybe Pluto entering Aquarius has open up “several groups” wanting to highlight their feelings now. His Chiron may be tapping into a wound the British people feel? Feeling left behind as everyone else appears to be put first?
LisaV – you might find the mixedmuseum.org.uk website of interest. The racism you refer to is very complicated, and varies considerably from one era to the next – say Tudor times to the late 19th century. It has strong connections with perceptions of class too. Since England is Capricorn in 1066 and 1801, a cautious and conservative ruling class isn’t surprising, although there are many nuances and possibilities present in other charts. Worth considering that 1066 Pisces Moon square Uranus (unconventional population?), and the 1801 Cancer Moon trine Neptune (boundaryless) and Venus in Aquarius.
There were many marriages between people from different ethnic backgrounds and white ‘British’ or Irish people. Black celebrities of note included the famous young virtuoso violinist George Bridgetower (African/Polish) who inspired Beethoven to write a piece for him. At the end of the 19th century there’s Emma Clarke, first British black woman in the first professional women’s football team. There were countless others.
“As our earlier panels show, however, people of colour in Britain were not confined to the working classes and neither were their relationships. From the Tudor era onwards, evidence of individual residents of colour can be found across a wide range of towns, villages and even hamlets across Britain, with many of these residents entering into interracial relationships. Some of these were also mixed race Irish families. In 1860, for example, the Nottinghamshire Guardian reported that two men had been arrested for being drunk and riotous in the Duke of Wellington Inn in Sneinton, having quarrelled with a ‘black man and his Irish wife’ who had objected to one of the pair’s ‘vocal powers’.” mixedmuseum.org.uk
Not all the Irish diaspora Candy….
Surely Tommy Robinson “connects” to the UK with his Moon squaring the UK’s Moon and his Mars in opposition to it, an emotional connection.
The UK, especially the North West of England, is full of people with Irish surnames. The whole of Ireland was part of the UK until just over 100 years ago, and a big chunk of it still is.
That Moon of TR’s, square the UK’s (1801) Moon and opposition Mars (aggravated, angry) makes more sense if you think of the UK 1801 chart as ‘the state’ rather than ‘the people’. If you look at the 973 AD England chart (11th May 973jul, Bath) which you could say represents ‘the English people’; TR’s Moon in Aries is conjunct England’s Venus and trine her Moon in Leo, which is much more sympathetic. His Jupiter in Scorpio is opposition England’s Sun/Mars/Mercury in Taurus.
That seems to show how he connects with the UK and the people better I think.
Thanks for this Marjorie.
What horrific events in London yesterday – it is truly shocking that far right activists and fascists have been allowed to march on Whitehall, supported by the police (where were the arrests for inciting racial hatred?) Even more shocking that spoiled little boy Musk was allowed to call for the overthrowing of the UK Government, and given a platform to do so. It’s a sign of the extraordinary times we live in, that this has just been reported on as a ‘normal’ event.
I notice that the upcoming solar eclipse at the end of Virgo is conjunction the UK’s Uranus in 12th house. Gullible folk across the UK seem to be sleepwalking all of us into fascism, with all the money of the international far right community behind Reform Ltd. It is all, inevitably, based on lies and social media manipulation.
I would dearly love to think that Robinson (real name Yaxley-Lennon) is going to get too big for his boots in the next couple of years. Or, is that Uranus Mars influence a sign that fascism will be even stronger? Ugh.
It’s not surprising that Tommy Robinson has no connection to the UK chart.
His mother is Irish, and he identifies as Irish as he went to the trouble of getting an Irish passport and travels around on that.
And lo, he has connections to the Irish Republic chart (18th April 1949 midnight). Tommy’s midheaven at 8 Sag 21 is conjunct the Irish ascendant at 5 Sag 50. His Saturn-Pluto conj at 28/29 Libra is opposite the Irish Sun at 27 Aries 35 and the Irish Venus at 27 Aries 51.
Many of the Southport rioters who got convicted had Irish surnames, and the whole movement for burning down asylum hotels started in Ireland in 2023.
The press loves these demos as they provide eye-catching visuals. But London is an old Imperial capital that hosts demos that have nothing to do with Britain.
The Palestinian rallies are full of migrants and foreign students under the impression that Imperial Britain can intervene in Gaza.
The “People’s Vote” demos were full of EU citizens under the impression they could overturn the ref with a bit of flag-waving. The British rolled their eyes and voted to Get Brexit Done.
The BLM demos were full of migrants under the impression that Imperial Britain controlled policing in Minnesota. They kept chanting silly things like “Hands up, don’t shoot” and when long-suffering unarmed British bobbies ignored them, they got violent (32 arrests).
I suppose they protest in London because they get the attention they crave here.
A good chunk of Ireland is part of the UK remember.
The movement to burn down hotels started in the Irish Republic. Here is a timeline:
rte.ie/news/primetime/2024/0207/1431003-mapped-the-fires-linked-to-accommodation-for-migrants/
Starts in Nov 2018. In 2023 there were 13 fires. In the first six months of 2024 there were another 13 fires. And they were happening all over the Republic, Dublin, Cork, Gallway etc
The Irish diaspora in England follows Irish news closely and does a copycat – it’s not surprising that Southport is in Merseyside and hosts large amounts of Irish diaspora. Most of the convicted rioters had Irish surnames. Lucy Connelly, convicted for tweeting hate has an Irish surname. Would not be surprised if she was radicalised in Irish Facebook groups.
And then there is Conor McGregor, Tommy Robinson’s political twin who is currently running to become Irish President…
What you’re really saying is “a good chunk of the UK is part of the UK”. Northern Ireland and Ireland are two completely separate entities.
I never got the impression it was his Irishness (half) that was an issue. More that he had been brought up in the Midlands where there is an extensive Muslim community.
