Singapore in August 2005: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for Singapore in August 2005, 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
- Makara (Capricorn)
- Lord of the year chart
- Shani (Saturn) in house 6
The solar year began on 14 April 2005, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at Singapore, Capricorn was rising.
Saturn rules the rising sign and so sets the tone of the year's chart. It stands in the 6th house, which keeps the workforce, public services, public debt and day to day administration in focus through the year.
Planets that stand out
Mars in the 1st house brings drive, quick decisions and some heat in debate 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.
Venus in the 4th house brings comfort, the arts and easier agreements to land, housing, farming, the season's weather and the mood at home.
Jupiter in the 9th house brings growth, support and wider opportunity to higher learning, beliefs, long-distance travel and trade far afield.
