United Arab Emirates in February 2018: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for United Arab Emirates in February 2018, 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.
No founding chart is used for United Arab Emirates on this page, so it reads from the Mesha Sankranti chart cast for Abu Dhabi and from the eclipses.
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
- Dhanu (Sagittarius)
- Lord of the year chart
- Guru (Jupiter) in house 10
The solar year began on 14 April 2017, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at Abu Dhabi, Sagittarius was rising.
Jupiter 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
Saturn in the 1st house brings slow, patient work, tighter budgets and some delays to the country as a whole and the general mood of its people.
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.
The founding chart
No founding chart is read for this country: there is no agreed time for it, or it is older than the charts here can reach.
Planets changing sign
- Surya (Sun) enters Kumbha (Aquarius)
On 13 February 2018 Sun moves into Aquarius, the 3rd house of the year chart (communication, the media, transport links and dealings with neighbours).
The Sun's month puts the official side of these matters in the light.
Eclipses
- Solar eclipse
A solar eclipse falls on 16 February 2018 in Aquarius, the 3rd house of the year chart (communication, the media, transport links and dealings with neighbours).
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.
