UK Conservative Party – in self-destructive mode

The Conservative Party continues to tear itself apart like a nest of hyenas over Brexit with no end in sight to the blood-letting and vicious in-fighting. The 12 November 1867 Conservative Party chart, which I’ve never found that informative, does have some indications of strain as tr Pluto moves in sextile and trine to the Sun Saturn in Scorpio opposition Pluto over an extended period into the early 2020s.

The 10 May 1912 Conservative chart in contrast does seem more to the point – with tr Pluto opposing the Mars Neptune in Cancer at the moment. That suggests considerable confusion as well as deep bitterness and hostility. And it will continue on through 2019/2020 as tr Pluto squares the Mercury. With the Solar Arc Mars Neptune which seems a key sensitive point square the Uranus from 2018 till 2021, which will bring high anxiety, fanaticism, and in 2021 a mood of great insecurity. Tr Pluto is also trine the Sun Saturn in Taurus 2017 to 2022 which will bring weight to bear for change though only through extreme difficulty.

Looking back at past successes and failures the 1912 chart does seem to work better. With a tr Pluto trine Solar Arc Jupiter over Maggie Thatcher’s 1979 win. Devastation writ large in 1945 for the shock loss with the Solar Arc Mars Neptune square the Saturn; and tr Saturn opposition Jupiter. In 1997 for Tony Blair’s Labour win there was tr Saturn opposition the Solar Arc Mars Neptune and square Mercury; with oddly enough tr Pluto square the Solar Arc Jupiter of which there is similar in 2020/21 with Solar Arc Jupiter square Pluto – it can be successful but over-confidence can have the opposite effect.

There are some influences showing on the 1867 chart for the above, but 1912 is better.
