A close look at four Aquarian Age charts

Each country has its own Aquarian Age chart.

Place determines the house positions of the planets and the departments of mundane life they influence when they form major progressed aspects.

These major progressed aspects are universal so each country experiences the same aspect in a way that’s primarily defined by its political, economic and social circumstances, and place on the world stage.

But it’s the progressed aspects formed by the progressed ascendant and progressed Midheaven at a specified time that give a country a special trend that’s not experienced by any other nation.

The ascendant

House 1 in a global chart rules the people and their health and welfare.

Some countries have the Moon there, some have Mars, some have Saturn and some have Pluto and each planet defines a unique set of national characteristics and way of living.

House 1 harmony favors the interests of the people and house 1 discord indicates problems and difficulties that the people have to deal with.

Major events or developments involving or affecting the people of a country occur when the planet or planets in or ruling house 1, or when the birth chart or progressed ascendant, in their nation’s chart, is stimulated into activity by a major progressed aspect.

Major aspects formed by the birth chart or progressed ascendant are singularly distinctive. They give a special trend to the events and conditions affecting the people for the duration of the aspect.

The progressed ascendant’s rate of motion varies considerably so in a specified chart in 2019 it can be in house 4, 5, 6 or 7.

The Midheaven

House 10 in a global chart rules a country’s leader, administration, business activity and standing on the world stage.

Some have Venus there, some have Mars, some have Jupiter and some have Neptune and each planet defines a different type of administration and way of doing business.

House 10 harmony favors sound administration, successful government, thriving business activity and a good international standing.

House 10 discord marks for incompetent governance and administration, inept business activity and a bad international reputation.

Major events involving or affecting a country’s administration, business activity or reputation occur when a planet in or ruling house 10, or the birth chart or progressed Midheaven, in its chart, is stimulated into activity by a major progressed aspect.

Major aspects formed by the birth chart or progressed Midheaven in a nation’s chart are singularly distinctive. They give a special trend to the events and conditions affecting its administration, business and reputation for the duration of the aspect.

The progressed Midheaven moves forward by about one degree per year so in 2019 it’s located in house 2 (the wealth and personal property of the people, finances, financial transactions, banks, the central bank and national treasury) of each country’s Aquarian Age chart.

The date it moved there differs but the influence is the same – government policy and business activity influences and is influenced by financial trends and economic developments.

America’s Aquarian Age chart progressed to December 31, 2019Chart data is: January 19, 1881 at 3.56.42pm EST (77W01; 38N53)

Progressed Mars (strife and disputation) in house 10 (the Trump administration and business) is parallel birth chart and progressed Pluto (disunity, division, coercion, crime, corruption and drastic measures) in house 11 (Congress).

On September 16, 2019 progressed Mars moves to form a parallel aspect with birth chart Uranus (radical activity, disruption, civil unrest, exposure, sudden change, refugees and technology) in house 3 (the press, literary work, transportation, Canada and Mexico).

Progressed ascendant (the people) is in house 5 (entertainment, sport, amusement, movies, speculation, gambling, sexual activity, the birth rate, children, schools and foreign ambassadors).

In 2019 the birth chart and progressed ascendant are not active, but in December 2019 the progressed ascendant in house 5 (Wall Street, speculation, entertainment and children) moves to form a high-discord opposition aspect with progressed Saturn – the planet of safety, economy, poverty, tariffs, contraction, caution, conservatism and farmers – in house 11 (Congress).

Progressed Midheaven (the administration and business) is in house 2 (the people’s money and possessions, financial policy and banks).

In 2019 it’s forming a high-harmony (luck) trine aspect with birth chart Jupiter – the planet of finances, expansion and higher prices – in house 10 (the administration, business and jobs); and a low-discord obstacle (square) aspect with progressed Jupiter in house 11 (Congress).

Jupiter – the planet of plenty – is the cusp ruler of house 6 (work, workers and employees) so work is plentiful and new jobs are being created.

The progressed Midheaven-birth chart Jupiter trine aspect reaches peak power in October 2019 and forecasts a booming economy, expansion for business, higher prices and job creation.

The progressed Midheaven-progressed Jupiter square aspect reaches peak power in December 2019 and forecasts extravagant, unwise spending, or actions by Congress to constrain government spending.

On November 8, 2016, with progressed Sun – the planet of politics – in house 12 (self-undoing and isolation) square birth chart Uranus – the planet of radical change – Donald Trump was elected US President. And four years later, on July 7, 2020, progressed Sun moves to form a high-discord square (obstacle) aspect with birth chart Moon – the planet of the common people, home and family – and cusp ruler of house 1 – the American people.

Britain’s Aquarian Age chart progressed to December 31, 2019Chart data is: January 19, 1881 at 8.56.42pm GMT (00W06; 51N36)

On June 23, 2016, with progressed Sun in house 9 (trade, travel and legal issues) square birth chart Uranus – the planet of independence and radical moves – the UK voted to leave the European Union and ever since the country has been tearing itself apart.

In June 2015 progressed Mars in house 8 (taxes, financial deals and the PM’s Cabinet) moved to form a parallel aspect with birth chart Pluto – the planet of division and disunity – and this very difficult, high-discord, aspect has influenced the Brexit divorce negotiations. It reached peak power on December 19, 2018.

On December 30, 2018 progressed Mercury in house 10 (the prime minster and administration) moved to form a sextile (opportunity) aspect with progressed Saturn – the planet of hard-headed practicality and economy – in house 8. This window of opportunity will benefit the UK government as it continues to deal with its Brexit problem.

On September 16, 2019 progressed Mars moves to form a parallel aspect with birth chart Uranus (independence, radical action, disruption, protests, sudden reversals, refugees and technology) in house 12 (secret deals, disappointment, isolation, prisons and hospitals).

Progressed ascendant (the people) is in house 4 (the land, borders, farming, mining, the weather and opposition political party).

It’s inconjunct birth chart Pluto – planet of division – in house 9 (trade and legal matters) – peak power date is July 9, 2019; and sesquisquare (agitation) birth chart Neptune – planet of schemes, complexity, confusion and deception – in house 9 – peak power date is July 28, 2019; so the division and disillusionment is set to continue throughout 2019.

Progressed Midheaven (the government and business activity) in house 2 (the people’s money, banks and finances) is parallel progressed Saturn – planet of contraction, economy and loss – in house 8 (taxes and debt) – peak power date is May 22, 2019; and progressed Venus (Theresa May) in house 8 is parallel progressed Midheaven (publicity and reputational issues) – peak power date is January 1, 2020.

Britain is scheduled to leave the EU on March 29, 2019.

China’s Aquarian Age chart progressed to December 31, 2019Chart data is: January 20, 1881 at 4.56.42am CST (116E25; 39N55)

China is building islands in the South China Sea, a road from Beijing to Portugal and actively stealing the intellectual property and confidential business and technological data of private agencies and other governments.

Progressed Mars (strife and construction) in house 4 (land, territories, homes and buildings) is parallel birth chart and progressed Pluto (cyber warfare, cybercrime, bully-boy tactics, threats, duress and direct action) in house 5 (entertainment, teenagers, speculation and risk).

On September 16, 2019 progressed Mars moves to form a parallel aspect with birth chart Uranus (sudden events, unexpected developments, disruption, radical change and technology) in house 9 (trade, legal matters, court decisions, radio, television and internet).

Progressed ascendant (the people) is in house 7 (the other country, foreign policy, international relations, enemies, disputes and war).

Progressed Mars in house 4 (cities, homes, buildings, farming and mining) is trine (luck) birth chart ascendant. It started December 23, 2018 and reaches peak power on April 29, 2020.

The Midheaven is particularly active in China’s Aquarian Age chart.

Progressed Venus – the planet of girls, women and women’s issues – in house 5 (entertainment, amusement, sport and teenagers) is parallel progressed Midheaven – peak power date is February 17, 2020; and progressed Midheaven in house 2 is parallel progressed Saturn – the planet of security issues, long-range planning, poverty and disease – in house 4 (land, agriculture, weather events and natural disasters) – peak power date is August 24, 2020.

Progressed Midheaven semisquare birth chart Jupiter – the planet of finances, banks, expansion, extravagance and religion – in house 4 (cities, buildings and homes) starts February 11, 2019 and reaches peak power February 28, 2020.

But the outstanding aspect involving the Midheaven is progressed Midheaven (business and government) square birth chart and progressed Pluto (cybercrime, cyber attacks, identify theft and disinformation).

With Pluto (and house 12) you enter the world of cybercrime and cyber espionage and with 1.4 billion people China has a lot of hackers who are out to steal your personal data and the secrets of businesses and governments.

Pluto is the planet of computers and exploitation and China gives computers away to developing countries like Tonga and Malawi.

Progressed Midheaven square birth chart Pluto started May 23, 2017. It stimulated the Chinese government’s cybercriminal activity and reached peak power in June 2018.

It ends June 25, 2019 but on April 7, 2019 progressed Midheaven square progressed Pluto starts. It reaches peak power on May 2, 2020 and further stimulates the Chinese government’s desire to steal the intellectual property of businesses and governments. It ends in May 2021 and will see China’s standing on the global stage severely tarnished.

Pluto is the planet of crime and on December 1, 2018 Meng Wanzhou, the chief financial officer of Huawei Technologies – a Chinese multinational telecommunications company (house 10 and Pluto) – was arrested in Vancouver, Canada amid reports that she violated US sanctions against Iran.

Pluto is in house 5 (children) and China has a huge number of smart and talented children that it can train in the field of computer technology.

And Pluto in house 5 (the birth rate) also explains the drastic action taken by China in regard to the country’s birth rate and the one-child policy that was introduced in 1979 as part of a birth planning program (house 5) designed to control the size of its population. In January 2016 – with progressed Mars parallel birth chart Pluto – the policy was changed to allow each Chinese couple to have two children.

Russia’s Aquarian Age chart progressed to December 31, 2019Chart data is: January 19, 1881 at 11.56.42pm MSK (37E35; 55N45)

Progressed Mars (strife, aggression and disputes) in house 7 (foreign policy and the international community) is parallel birth chart Pluto (crime and Russia’s propaganda machine for spreading disinformation) in house 8 (death) – end date is July 13, 2022 – and parallel progressed Pluto – peak power date is November 22, 2021.

On September 16, 2019 progressed Mars moves to form a parallel aspect with birth chart Uranus (radical activity, disruption and sudden changes) in house 11 (friends and allies).

Progressed Mars in house 7 (disputes with other countries and enemies) is square birth chart Midheaven (business activity and reputation).

This high-discord aspect started May 19, 2018 and reaches peak power September 23, 2019. It marks for hostile relations with foreign powers (house 7), and events that severely damage Russia’s reputation and relations with the world community. (A number of world powers have imposed economic sanctions on Russia.)

Progressed ascendant (the people) is very active.

Progressed ascendant square progressed Pluto – the planet of crime and corruption – in house 8 (other people’s money) ends July 28, 2019; progressed ascendant sesquisquare birth chart Uranus – the planet of radical activity – in house 11 (the Federal Assembly) ends August 8, 2019; and progressed ascendant semisquare birth chart Venus – the planet of women, women’s issues and the arts – in house 5 (entertainment, amusements and sport) reaches peak power September 23, 2019.

But in 2019 the chief issue for Russia is getting back on top and with progressed ascendant in house 4 (the homeland) conjunction birth chart Sun starting May 27, 2019 a tsunami of nationalist fervor will sweep the country. It reaches peak power January 8, 2020.

Progressed ascendant is also parallel birth chart Sun intensifying the influence of the conjunction aspect. It reaches peak power on the same day – January 8, 2020.
