Australia in March 2043: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for Australia in March 2043, read from the chart cast when the Sun entered Mesha, from the country's founding chart and from any eclipse in the month. They describe tendencies in public life, not fixed events.
Mundane readings here stay with themes and timing windows. They say nothing about any public figure and do not try to name particular events.
The year chart (Mesha Sankranti)
- Cast for
- Lagna
- Kanya (Virgo)
- Lord of the year chart
- Budh (Mercury) in house 8
The solar year began on 14 April 2042, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at Canberra, Virgo was rising.
Mercury rules the rising sign and so sets the tone of the year's chart. It stands in the 8th house, which keeps shared resources, taxes, insurance and sudden shifts in public finances in focus through the year.
Planets that stand out
Saturn in the 2nd house brings slow, patient work, tighter budgets and some delays to national wealth, reserves, food supply and the tone of public speech.
Jupiter in the 3rd house brings growth, support and wider opportunity to communication, the media, transport links and dealings with neighbours.
The founding chart
- Founded
- 1901-01-01
- Lagna
- Mesha (Aries)
- Moon sign
- Mesha (Aries)
The founding chart of Australia, 1 January 1901, has Aries rising and the Moon in Aries.
Shani (Saturn)
Saturn is in Libra: the 7th house from the founding chart's rising sign (foreign relations, treaties and trading partners) and the 7th house from its Moon.
Saturn here tends to ask for patience, restructuring and careful budgets in these matters.
Guru (Jupiter)
Jupiter is in Sagittarius: the 9th house from the founding chart's rising sign (higher learning, beliefs, long-distance travel and trade far afield) and the 9th house from its Moon.
Jupiter here tends to support growth and sound planning in these matters.
Rahu
Rahu is in Pisces: the 12th house from the founding chart's rising sign (public spending, foreign investment, ports and work done out of sight) and the 12th house from its Moon.
Rahu here tends to stir new ideas and fresh ambitions, along with some uncertainty.
Ketu
Ketu is in Virgo: the 6th house from the founding chart's rising sign (the workforce, public services, public debt and day to day administration) and the 6th house from its Moon.
Ketu here tends to bring a review of old ways and a quieter, inward turn.
None of the slow planets changes sign in this period, so the themes above hold steady.
Planets changing sign
- Surya (Sun) enters Meena (Pisces)
On 15 March 2043 Sun moves into Pisces, the 12th house of the founding chart (public spending, foreign investment, ports and work done out of sight).
The Sun's month puts the official side of these matters in the light.
- Mangal (Mars) enters Meena (Pisces)
On 21 March 2043 Mars moves into Pisces, the 12th house of the founding chart (public spending, foreign investment, ports and work done out of sight).
Mars here tends to speed things up and raise the temperature of public debate.
Eclipses
- Lunar eclipse
A lunar eclipse falls on 26 March 2043 in Virgo, the 6th house of the founding chart (the workforce, public services, public debt and day to day administration).
The weeks around an eclipse are read as a time to review and finish rather than to launch new public ventures in the matters it touches.
