United States in April 2016: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for United States in April 2016, 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 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
- Mithuna (Gemini)
- Lord of the year chart
- Budh (Mercury) in house 11
The solar year began on 13 April 2016, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at Washington DC, Gemini was rising.
Mercury rules the rising sign and so sets the tone of the year's chart. It stands in the 11th house, which keeps lawmaking, alliances, gains and shared hopes in focus through the year.
Planets that stand out
Moon in the 1st house brings shifting public mood and a focus on everyday needs to the country as a whole and the general mood of its people.
Jupiter in the 3rd house brings growth, support and wider opportunity to communication, the media, transport links and dealings with neighbours.
Saturn in the 6th house brings slow, patient work, tighter budgets and some delays to the workforce, public services, public debt and day to day administration.
Venus in the 10th house brings comfort, the arts and easier agreements to governance, institutions and the country's standing in the world.
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.
