France's ex-First Lady is back with a vengeance




Paris  -- France's ex-First Lady, Valérie Trierweiler, is back with a vengeance. A few hours after her memoirs of her relationship with President François Hollande, called "Merci pour ce moment" (Thanks for the moment) hit the bookstands in France, a new poll showed that the President's approval ratings were in free fall, reaching the historical low of 13%.  CNN; Sept 5 http://cnn.it/Yjo6tw





This news is best understood if we look at the chart for the last lunar eclipse of April 15 drawn for Paris. Notice that the eclipse Moon is in the 5th house. The fifth house in mundane astrology is linked to promiscuity, immorality, and scandals so by association with mistresses.

In his commentary on the Full Moon eclipse of April 15, Nick Fiorenza wrote:

The April 15 Total Lunar Eclipse occurs just into sidereal Libra conjoining Ceres and Vesta opposite the Sun-Juno-Eris conjunction. Notice also the Vesta-Ceres-Moon conjunction nesting between Mars and the North Lunar Node, creating one entire energetic directly in opposition to the entire stellium of planets including the Sun-Juno-Eris conjunction and the Mercury-Uranus conjunction. Thus our Lunar Eclipse becomes another significant dynamic of the Grand Square.

For our purpose here, it will be sufficient to delineate the following elements

JUNO: Partners; marriage/relationship; maintenance of one's rights or position with other; question of rights and fairness/compromise; enforcement of fairness; potential for score-keeping, jealousy, fears of abandonment & infidelity; tallying ($$$ & fairness).

VESTA: emotional distancing.

KRONOS: Government leaders; those in high positions

CUPIDO: Marriage; family group

Juno-Uranus
There may be  upsets with partners  (because one of them is behaving in ways that doesn't  agree with what the other thought they knew.)

Cupido/Hades
Underhanded actions or rather malicious  things (Hades)  in families (and in other units of people  (Cupido) who are supposed to be  partners---and this includes marriage or live in relationships)   Part of the idea here is that there's some "dirt" (Hades) that  is affecting harmony. (This combination acquires significance since it is on the horizon axis)

Juno/Vesta
People who have been  in close relationship,  treat each other coldly or impersonally. Expect something along the lines of:  it's not about you, it's about making things fair, getting  even, restoring some kind of equality (and control.)


When we combine all this  with the TNP Kronos we are referring to a situation involving a government leader like the President in this case.





If we now progress the eclipse chart to September 5, the date of the news, we find that the Grand Cross has reached the horizon axis triggering the stellium. Martha-Wescott’s delineation of Uranus-Pluto is relevant here:

Uranus-Pluto
Unexpected reactions based on resentments; a separation can bring vindictive reactions or an attempt to regain control.


Finally, we take a cursory look at the President’s chart [1]  (born 12 August 1954; 00:10 CET, Rouen, France; Rodden Rating AA) we find that he is currently going through a Saturn [18sc] transit in Scorpio square his radix Sun [18le] in Leo. In his Essays on the Foundations of Astrology, C.E.O. Carter described this square as follows:

Leo-Scorpio
It  may nourish bitterness, soured by the memory of ancient wrongs; it may be vindictive.


The President's solar return chart progressed to September 5 brings a Grand Cross containing Uranus-Pluto-Kronos-Hades to the angles confirming our analysis.
