Australia in 2055: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for Australia through 2055, read the way mundane astrology reads a nation: from the chart cast when the Sun enters Mesha each year, from the country's founding chart and from the year's eclipses. 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
- Makara (Capricorn)
- Lord of the year chart
- Shani (Saturn) in house 3
The solar year began on 15 April 2055, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at Canberra, Capricorn was rising.
Saturn rules the rising sign and so sets the tone of the year's chart. It stands in the 3rd house, which keeps communication, the media, transport links and dealings with neighbours in focus through the year.
Planets that stand out
Ketu in the 1st house brings a quieter, inward turn and the letting go of old patterns to the country as a whole and the general mood of its people.
Sun in the 4th house brings attention from the authorities and a push for order to land, housing, farming, the season's weather and the mood at home.
Mercury in the 4th house brings busy talks, paperwork and brisk trade to land, housing, farming, the season's weather and the mood at home.
Rahu in the 7th house brings new and unusual directions, with some confusion along the way to foreign relations, treaties and trading partners.
Jupiter in the 12th house brings growth, support and wider opportunity to public spending, foreign investment, ports and work done out of sight.
