United States in 2015: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for United States through 2015, 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.
No founding chart is used for United States on this page, so it reads from the Mesha Sankranti chart cast for Washington DC 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
- Kumbha (Aquarius)
- Lord of the year chart
- Shani (Saturn) in house 10
The solar year began on 14 April 2015, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at Washington DC, Aquarius was rising.
Saturn 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
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 6th house brings growth, support and wider opportunity to the workforce, public services, public debt and day to day administration.
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
- Guru (Jupiter) enters Simha (Leo)
On 13 July 2015 Jupiter moves into Leo, the 7th house of the year chart (foreign relations, treaties and trading partners).
Jupiter here tends to support growth and sound planning in these matters.
Eclipses
- Solar eclipse
A solar eclipse falls on 20 March 2015 in Pisces, the 2nd house of the year chart (national wealth, reserves, food supply and the tone of public speech).
- Lunar eclipse
A lunar eclipse falls on 4 April 2015 in Virgo, the 8th house of the year chart (shared resources, taxes, insurance and sudden shifts in public finances).
- Solar eclipse
A solar eclipse falls on 13 September 2015 in Leo, the 7th house of the year chart (foreign relations, treaties and trading partners).
- Lunar eclipse
A lunar eclipse falls on 27 September 2015 in Pisces, the 2nd house of the year chart (national wealth, reserves, food supply and the tone of public speech).
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.
