Australia in 2057: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for Australia through 2057, 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
- Mithuna (Gemini)
- Lord of the year chart
- Budh (Mercury) in house 10
The solar year began on 14 April 2057, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at Canberra, Gemini was rising.
Mercury rules the rising sign and so sets the tone of the year's chart. It stands in the 10th house, which keeps governance, institutions and the country's standing in the world in focus through the year.
Planets that stand out
Rahu in the 1st house brings new and unusual directions, with some confusion along the way to the country as a whole and the general mood of its people.
Ketu in the 7th house brings a quieter, inward turn and the letting go of old patterns to foreign relations, treaties and trading partners.
Jupiter in the 9th house brings growth, support and wider opportunity to higher learning, beliefs, long-distance travel and trade far afield.
Saturn in the 11th house brings slow, patient work, tighter budgets and some delays to lawmaking, alliances, gains and shared hopes.
The founding chart
- Founded

Shani (Saturn)
Saturn 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.
Saturn here tends to ask for patience, restructuring and careful budgets in these matters.
On 7 April 2057 Saturn moves into Aries: the 1st house from the founding chart's rising sign (the country as a whole and the general mood of its people) and the 1st house from its Moon.
Guru (Jupiter)
Jupiter is in Capricorn: the 10th house from the founding chart's rising sign (governance, institutions and the country's standing in the world) and the 10th house from its Moon.
Jupiter here tends to support growth and sound planning in these matters.
On 14 February 2057 Jupiter moves into Aquarius: the 11th house from the founding chart's rising sign (lawmaking, alliances, gains and shared hopes) and the 11th house from its Moon.
Rahu
Rahu is in Gemini: the 3rd house from the founding chart's rising sign (communication, the media, transport links and dealings with neighbours) and the 3rd house from its Moon.
Rahu here tends to stir new ideas and fresh ambitions, along with some uncertainty.
On 5 December 2057 Rahu moves into Taurus: the 2nd house from the founding chart's rising sign (national wealth, reserves, food supply and the tone of public speech) and the 2nd house from its Moon.
Ketu
Ketu 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.
Ketu here tends to bring a review of old ways and a quieter, inward turn.
On 5 December 2057 Ketu moves into Scorpio: the 8th house from the founding chart's rising sign (shared resources, taxes, insurance and sudden shifts in public finances) and the 8th house from its Moon.
