The Hybrid Eclipse: Insights into the UK's Future and National Identity
Get ready for an extraordinary celestial event, as a rare hybrid solar eclipse graces our skies. While not fully visible in the UK, its effects will still be felt. On the morning of the 20th of April, this intriguing eclipse will rise, marking a significant shift in our nation's identity. In this article, we'll explore how this celestial phenomenon may impact various aspects of our lives, from politics to economy and international relations. So, let's delve into the intriguing world of astrology and discover what lies ahead.
National Identity and Government:
Aries, the first house in the horoscope of the eclipse, represents the people and national identity. As the eclipse occurs in this sign, it suggests a transformation in our collective identity. Ruled by Mars, which resides in the fourth house symbolizing homeland and country, this celestial event indicates a potential shift in how we perceive ourselves as a nation. It may evoke a desire to reclaim past glories and power, possibly triggered by perceived threats. This shift in national identity will likely intertwine with significant events such as Brexit, the ongoing War in Ukraine, and tensions in China/Taiwan.
When it comes to government matters, the Midheaven (MC) in the tenth house of Capricorn signifies potential implications for the government rather than the monarchy. Saturn, the ruler of Capricorn, resides in the twelfth house of Pisces, which suggests a ineffective and secretive government concerned with enemies. Saturn's overcoming square aspect to Venus, which rules finances and relations, indicates that government actions may harm both the economy and international relations. Furthermore, Saturn's influence on the eleventh house of alliances and governmental finances paints a negative picture for the UK, indicating increased isolation and poor financial management.
Economy and Trade:
Mars, the most angular planet, holds significance for economic matters. In this night chart, it exerts less malefic influence and forms a harmonious sextile aspect with Mercury in Taurus, residing in the second house of finances. This sextile indicates increased economic activity, particularly in commerce, trade, and material possessions. However, Mars being in its Fall suggests some challenges in harnessing these opportunities fully. The mutual reception between Mars and the Moon further supports Mars' influence, potentially leading to a rise in borrowing and tax cuts as a measure to stimulate the economy. Meanwhile, rising interest rates and the cost of living crisis may deepen.
Venus and Infrastructure:
Venus, positioned in Gemini and the third house of infrastructure and communications, bodes well for improvements in these areas. As the benefic planet of the sect in favor, Venus signifies positive developments. However, its square aspect to Saturn, the malefic contrary to sect, imposes limitations and restrictions. Consequently, the UK's finances and partnerships may face squandering and reduction.
Naval Tensions and Refugees:
Saturn's placement in Pisces and the twelfth house suggests potential calamities related to water. These could involve naval tensions, difficulties faced by foreigners crossing waters, or conflicts with foreign enemies at sea. This points to a continuation of naval tensions and an ongoing refugee crisis.
International Affairs and Isolation:
Jupiter, situated in the first house of the Eclipse and in mutual reception with Mars and the Moon, indicates the UK's active role in international affairs. Although out of the public eye, Jupiter signifies bureaucrats, lawmakers, and the government working on martial matters, such as war. This could manifest as peace efforts or the UK taking a more significant role in brokering peace. Jupiter's rule over the ninth house of international relations and ideology, as well as the twelfth house of isolation and hidden enemies, suggests that the UK will attempt to engage internationally while facing increasing isolation.
