United Kingdom in February 2002: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for United Kingdom in February 2002, 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 Kingdom on this page, so it reads from the Mesha Sankranti chart cast for London 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
- Kanya (Virgo)
- Lord of the year chart
- Budh (Mercury) in house 7
The solar year began on 13 April 2001, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at London, Virgo was rising.
Mercury rules the rising sign and so sets the tone of the year's chart. It stands in the 7th house, which keeps foreign relations, treaties and trading partners in focus through the year.
Planets that stand out
Moon in the 4th house brings shifting public mood and a focus on everyday needs to land, housing, farming, the season's weather and the mood at home.
Mars in the 4th house brings drive, quick decisions and some heat in debate to land, housing, farming, the season's weather and the mood at home.
Ketu in the 4th house brings a quieter, inward turn and the letting go of old patterns to land, housing, farming, the season's weather and the mood at home.
Venus in the 7th house brings comfort, the arts and easier agreements 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 9th house brings slow, patient work, tighter budgets and some delays to higher learning, beliefs, long-distance travel and trade far afield.
Rahu in the 10th house brings new and unusual directions, with some confusion along the way to governance, institutions and the country's standing in the world.
