Keyphrases for asteroids are available at reference [2] and duplicated below.

BACCHUS: Excess; addiction.
EURYDIKE or Eurydices: Dependence on people.
NIOBE: Humbling lessons through excess pride.
TORO: Machismo; bullying; intimidation.

Combining these phrases we have:

Bacchus-Eurydike-Niobe-Toro:  There has been an addictive dependence on others. Sorrow is experienced as pride is hurt because  weak and dependent people are bullied or face abusive behaviour.

Readers would agree that the above delineation of the asteroids describes the current condition of Greece.





Shown here is Tsipras’ precessed solar return chart. Notice that the TNP Admetus occupies the MC and makes hard aspects to the Uranus-Pluto square. Martha-Wescott interprets Admetus-Uranus-Pluto as follows:

Attempts to contain issues connected with debt finally erupt explosively; after a period of resisting change, it comes in with a bang and may be the result of ultimatums, ruthless treatment, or unhealthy or covert dependencies.




  


Progressing the solar return chart brings, quite appropriately,  the  fortunate Sun-Jupiter conjunction to the descendant on Jan.27, the date of his swearing in as Prime minister. In this chart the Sun is square the stars Caph and Alphirk. Summarized  below is Nick Fiorenza’s account of these stars [3]. Could the situation of the Greek people have been better described?

Caph, the benevolent hand of the Queen and Alphirk of King Cepheus. Also adding to theme are Alpha Fornax of the fiery furnace; Tyl of Draco. Tyl is the Human Cry--not that of grief, but of anguish, of the pain of the human plight.  It is the scream of our human struggle. Tyl's cry is for fulfillment at a very fundamental human level. Tyl is the cry of desire for one's physical needs to be met, for one's truth to be heard, and for one's dreams to be realized. Tyl is the burning cry in the initiatory fires of life. South of the ecliptic lies Fornax the Furnace that provides the transmutational fire while in the whale (Cetus) of human experience creating the alchemical process of turning mortal to god.

Although there are stars in Cassiopeia and Cepheus that embody the human aspects of arrogance and denial (as presented in the story of the Royal Family), there are also stars in these constellations that are of a refined quality. These are Caph, the palm of Queen Cassiopeia's hand, and Alphirk, the truly wise essence of the King. Both these stars bring empathetic support, a door is easily opened in the physical, but only manifesting after a long and arduous journey through the initiatory fires of life.  They lift us from the struggles of life, or alter conditions in a way that otherwise would be impossible through our own power alone. Alphirk is sometimes indicative of a male in an authoritative position offering aid.
