King Maker’s Choice

Monday, May 10th, 2010 | Current Planetary trends, Mundane astrology, astrologer's diary

The British Elections took place May 6, 2010 with the Sun in Taurus and the Moon in Aquarius. The keywords might have been stability through change. The polls closed at 22:00; some apparently closed doors 15 minutes prior, and left voters standing in line without the opportunity to vote. The ascending degree in London was 3°Sagittarius, which is the position for the Moon in the chart of David Cameron—his star is rising. The ruler, Jupiter was at 24° Pisces 56′; this might be the indicator of the King Maker. It connected with the Saturn in the charts of the two flexible, mutable, contenders: Clegg and Cameron (birthdata at the end of this post). For Gordon Brown the beneficial energy of Jupiter connected with his natal Venus—might be good, but not necessarily. Jupiter is also know exasperate a situation. Venus represents social skills and Gordon Brown’s recent blunder with a voter became something he couldn’t live down. When people desire stability, Saturn would be more to the point than Venus. At the time the polls close retrograde Saturn hugged the Midheaven in Virgo (from the 9th house) and the ruler of the MC, Mercury, was in the fifth and also retrograde—no immediate result for who is to be prime minister.

Nick Clegg’s Sun is within three degrees of David Cameron’s Midheaven/Mars pairing. There are no such strong connections from the King Maker’s chart to that of Gordon Brown. It looks like Clegg is more likely to partner up with Cameron. However, Mercury of opinions and Venus of values clash in the charts of Cameron and Clegg…this might take longer than the weekend hoped by the people with vested interest in the financial markets. The Euro is falling thanks to the financial woes in Greece… the British Pound is at a low…and the almighty dollar is not fairing all that well either.

Nick Clegg, January 7, 1967 in Chalfont St Giles, UK, @ 5:56 (AM)-his assistant states that he thinks he was born around 6 AM; on the web times range from 5:51 to 6:30 AM.
Gordon Brown, February 20, 1951 in Giffnock, Scotland @8:40 AM, source biography
David Cameron, October 6, 1966 in London, UK-www.astro.com sites 6AM from memory-5:51 AM was a popular choice on various websites based out of UK.
