French PM resigns amid economy row



French PM Manuel Valls has submitted the government's resignation to President Francois Hollande and has been asked to form a new cabinet. The government was badly shaken on Sunday by criticism over its handling of the economy by economy minister Arnaud Montebourg. BBC; August 25. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-28924279






Along with the Capricorn Ingress chart, the chart for the entry of the Sun into Cancer is considered to be extremely important in Mundane Astrology. Shown here is the chart for the Sun’s entry into sidereal Cancer at Paris.  What strikes us immediately is that New Moon of August 25 falls on the meridian axis activating this chart. Here we have Saturn on the Ascendant and Neptune on the IC in an aspect known as a paran.


Planets in paran are important indicators of combined planetary energy. All astrologers will agree that when planets are on angles they are "strong." And when you have two (or more) planets on two angles simultaneously, then, not only are the energies considered very strong, but they are also relating to one another. This can lead to either a synthesis of energy or a frustration of energies, depending on the two planets involved. Here we have Saturn on the Ascendant and Neptune on the IC.  Key phrases for Saturn-Neptune would be:

Saturn-Neptune
Undermining circumstances frustrate the government. 

In his book “Mundane or National Astrology”, H.S. Green interprets, Neptune on the IC thus:

Neptune in the Fourth House 
If afflicted, especially if the mid-heaven is involved, the Government may lose ground in some way and some failure or discredit may attach to prominent persons.

The second important thing to note is  today’s conjunction of Mars-Saturn on the Ascendant – a combination that stands for conflict. This conjunction also creates a high-tension inconjunct aspect to Uranus and Eris  (discord) on the South Lunar Node.






Progressing the Cancer Ingress chart to August 25 brings a powerful Grand Cross to the meridian axis.  Key phrases for elements of the Cross are:

Kronos-Pluto : Government is under substantial pressure

Uranus-Pluto : Collapse of an old order


Finally, when we draw the chart for the New Moon of August 25, we find once again the same Grand Cross straddling the meridian axis with the New Moon making hard aspects to the Uranus leg. This once again confirms that astrology is a hologram. No matter which way you look at things you get the same answers.

H.S. Green gives us the following interpretation of Uranus in the 4th  which the news report appears to confirm

Uranus in the Fourth House 
This generally troubles the Government, putting many difficulties in their way either in Parliament or in the country. The Opposition may be stronger than usual and may score against the Government or unpopularity with the people may tell against them in the country, or contrary events may prove unfortunate for them.
