Swiss 'reject immigration curbs'




Voters in Switzerland appear to have decisively rejected a proposal to cut net immigration to no more than 0.2% of the population. Projections from partial results show more than 74% voting no in Sunday's referendum, according to state TV. Supporters of the measure argued that it would have reduced pressure on the country's resources. Opponents said it would have been bad for the economy. Around a quarter of Switzerland's eight million people are foreigners. The measure would have required the government to reduce immigration from about 80,000 to 16,000 people a year.

To understand this news we will look at the chart for the last solar eclipse of Oct. 23. Notice that the eclipse is placed in the 4th house at Bern, Switzerland. Baigent, Campion and Harvey suggest that the fourth house rules nationalism [1]. By association nationalism involves national identity or the sense of belonging to a country i.e. being a citizen. The eclipse is conjunct Miaplacidus, the second most important star of the Argo, after Canopus. Argo  Navis is the Celestial Ship which by association refers to long journeys. Nick Fiorenza [2] states that Miaplacidus is about  “living at or travelling to the right locations at the proper times in our lives”.  This is an obvious reference to immigration.





Progressing the eclipse chart brings Admetus to the MC and Neptune to the descendant.

Admetus receives hard aspects from the Uranus-Pluto square. It also forms a Yod with Apollon and Cupido-Mars. A Yod that is activated, as is the case here,  is very much like arriving at a fork in the road and having to take one or another path.

Admetus-Apollon: There may be  obstacles or restrictions encountered in connection with travel or  people at a distance.

Admetus-Cupido : There  may have been delays in the acceptance of members into a group or “family.

Admetus-Uranus-Pluto: Sudden change in a long term problem.


Neptune forms a Grand Trine with Apollon and Kronos-Hades which are receiving hard aspects from Uranus-Pluto.


Kronos-Uranus: To see changes/ upsets in laws, rules, opinions or regulations.

Kronos-Hades-Neptune: Opinions (Kronos) are swayed by  compassion (Neptune) for the helpless, weak and poor (Hades).

But what is really surprising is how accurate the Sabian symbol for the TNP Cupido [22sa06]  is in our present  context.
