What Astrologers Are Saying About The UK December Election

What a lousy election. What a lousy choice. Still, there’s always astrology to ding around with while the old structures crumble around our ears during this Pluto-Saturn cheek-to-cheek. A Void of Course Moon in Gemini on the night means, traditionally, it ain’t goin’ nowhere — nothing will come of it. Furthermore, Saturn in Capricorn will […]

Dec 12, 2019 UK Elections: Astrology and Tarot agree!

December 11, 2019: This morning while sitting here in Raleigh, North Carolina (a former British colony), I searched the interwebs for prognostications concerning tomorrow’s UK Elections in Britain (Conservative Party’s Boris Johnson vs Labour Party’s Jeremy Corbyn) and found two excellent resources: one based on Astrology, the other via Tarot.And curiously in both readings, horoscope and cards

  • Venus in Capricorn conjunct Saturn (19°)

What you want will be defined and limited. There will be rules around money, relationships or how you express self- esteem. These rules will make your responsibilities undeniable; for example, the work that you must do in order to manifest what you want. You may feel pressured, and this will define the absolute reality of what you love and how you love.

If you’re comfortable with reality, this conjunction can herald a solid commitment that makes you happy. This is about the security of knowing exactly where you stand with someone else, with your finances and your values. This can also be about taking control of a relationship or yourself-exercising maturity and authority In order to manifest something good.

But if you’ve been avoiding reality or your responsibilities, this can represent a difficult obstacle that denies you what you want and forces you to restrain your spending/indulgence/expressions of affection.

A conjunction is a new beginning. The last time Venus and Saturn met up was on February 18th, 2019. A situation has come full circle since then. Consider if the rules and limits have changed, or if your approach to them has. If you’ve been trying to build financial, relationship or inner security, this is the time to take stock of how far you’ve come.

In some cases, a situation may mature to the point where it has reached its natural conclusion. Therefore, the new beginning will consist of what lies beyond the finish line.

  • Mercury in Sagittarius trine Chiron RX in Aries (1 deg)

This aspect encourages you to talk about what hurts. Mercury in Sag’s optimism and broad perspectives can be used to integrate a wound or vulnerability. The difficulty is not insurmountable when you discuss it in the context of future growth (things will get better) or wisdom (you can learn from this).

Chiron is often associated with teaching; the hard-won wisdom you’ve gleaned from pain lets you help others. Sagittarius is also associated with teaching, so this is the perfect energy for giving or receiving enlightening messages.  

What new perspectives or future possibilities can you apply to a current (repeat) difficulty? Chiron RX in Aries is about returning to the battle that must be fought when you feel weak, or the pioneer who is an outcast/ scapegoat, yet again. What stories can you tell about your battle?
