La France born on Pluto in Aquarius with an added splash of Uranus is grandstanding the downside of Fixed, egalitarian, Airy Aquarius. As one commentator pointed out, France has never developed a culture of compromise. An angry ideological push for ever more generous spending pledges, despite stark warnings about the national debt flies in the face of common sense.
Veteran journalist Eric Brunet said after viewing the fractious debate which toppled Prime Minister Barnier, “What we have just seen is jaw-droppingly French. No pragmatism. Just ideology. All the speeches were about values, about extremes. Our whole discourse is disconnected from reality. It is typically, singularly French.” Predictions are that this process will be repeated several times over before daylight sinks in. Which fits the previous post with tr Neptune opposing the France Virgo Sun until early 2026.
What makes France’s chart even more intransigent is the Uranus opposition Pluto in Aquarius square Mars in Scorpio which creates a determination to die at the barricades before surrender. Stirring stuff for movies, less helpful for balancing the economic books.
The EU’s two power horses are now both in trouble with Germany being elbowed into a snap general election in February after its bickering coalition government recently collapsed.
Key points from earlier posts. The EU 31 December 1957 chart has a deadlocked Solar Arc Pluto opposition its 8th house economic Moon and square its Uranus later in 2025. With an upending, disruptive tr Uranus square Pluto in 2026/27. Though the catastrophic perhaps terminal problems come later this decade as tr Pluto squares the EU Moon and opposes the Pluto. This is when the 2004 enlargement countries of Czechia, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Slovenia and Slovakia may consider a breakaway as their entry chart also has a 10 degree Taurus Sun.
The Maastricht Treaty chart, 1 November 1993 12 am, is seriously rattled at the moment till April 2025 with tr Uranus conjunct the Taurus Moon, opposing the Mars Pluto in Scorpio and square Saturn which will see a considerable crisis. But again its moment of greatest jeopardy will be later in this decade.
