United States in 2068: themes from the sky
These are broad themes for United States through 2068, 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
- Kanya (Virgo)
- Lord of the year chart
- Budh (Mercury) in house 8
The solar year began on 13 April 2068, when the Sun entered Mesha. In the chart cast for that moment at Washington DC, Virgo was rising.
Mercury rules the rising sign and so sets the tone of the year's chart. It stands in the 8th house, which keeps shared resources, taxes, insurance and sudden shifts in public finances in focus through the year.
Planets that stand out
Jupiter in the 5th house brings growth, support and wider opportunity to education, the young, the arts, entertainment and the share markets.
Saturn in the 12th house brings slow, patient work, tighter budgets and some delays to public spending, foreign investment, ports and work done out of sight.
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 Makara (Capricorn)
On 15 January 2068 Jupiter moves into Capricorn, the 5th house of the year chart (education, the young, the arts, entertainment and the share markets).
Jupiter here tends to support growth and sound planning in these matters.
- Shani (Saturn) enters Kanya (Virgo)
On 29 August 2068 Saturn moves into Virgo, the 1st house of the year chart (the country as a whole and the general mood of its people).
Saturn here tends to ask for patience, restructuring and careful budgets in these matters.
- Ketu enters Mesha (Aries)
On 10 October 2068 Ketu moves into Aries, the 8th house of the year chart (shared resources, taxes, insurance and sudden shifts in public finances).
Ketu here tends to bring a review of old ways and a quieter, inward turn.
- Rahu enters Tula (Libra)
On 10 October 2068 Rahu moves into Libra, the 2nd house of the year chart (national wealth, reserves, food supply and the tone of public speech).
Rahu here tends to stir new ideas and fresh ambitions, along with some uncertainty.
Eclipses
- Lunar eclipse
A lunar eclipse falls on 17 May 2068 in Scorpio, the 3rd house of the year chart (communication, the media, transport links and dealings with neighbours).
- Solar eclipse
A solar eclipse falls on 30 May 2068 in Taurus, the 9th house of the year chart (higher learning, beliefs, long-distance travel and trade far afield).
- Lunar eclipse
A lunar eclipse falls on 9 November 2068 in Aries, the 8th house of the year chart (shared resources, taxes, insurance and sudden shifts in public finances).
- Solar eclipse
A solar eclipse falls on 24 November 2068 in Scorpio, 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.
