FIFA scandal: Why the US is involved




(CNN)In recent years, FIFA has made news not just for enforcing rules on the soccer field, but also for allegedly breaking them off it. The body that governs soccer, the most popular sport in the world, is a multibillion-dollar behemoth. Great power, yes. Great responsibility? Not so much, critics say. FIFA has been regularly accused of bribery and kickbacks, allegations that reached a fever pitch after it awarded Russia and Qatar the World Cup in 2018 and 2022, respectively.

A chart for the First Quarter Moon of May 25 at Washington DC is shown here. The Sun-Mars-Saturn-Neptune combination straddling the meridian is indicating a conflict (Mars-Saturn)  with hidden dimensions (Neptune). The Sun [4ge] is part of the Chinese Tíen Tsan, The Celestial Slanderer indicating that some scandals are coming to light and reputations are being tarnished.

Venus is opposite Pluto.  Venus Pluto is  about finance and big money and the power games involving them. It can also be interpreted as corrupt (Pluto) financial (Venus) shenanigans. Pluto is in the 5th house that is linked to games and sports. As a symbol in astrology, Pluto’s function is to reveal what has been buried, ignored, overlooked, or discarded without having been cleaned up, then to bring to the surface and destroy whatever contents of that type are outmoded, used up, and no longer vital. In Capricorn—where Pluto is now—that means removing corruption  at the levels of institutions, for example FIFA in this case.

 The following extract from a previous post for the stars on the Ascendant sums up the dynamics:

The Ascendant conjoins Chort and Zosma of Leo, Suhail Velorum of Argo Navis, and it lies under the auspices of Mizar of the Great Bear. This area of the zodiac is about our motive, that which is behind and driving our creative expressions. Zosma, Chort and Denebola are a triangle of stars that form the hind of the Lion. Denbola is the tail. This area of late Leo is of foul breezes and smoke screens. It is also of those behind the scenes, of political-religious figureheads manipulating the affairs of the world for personal motive while offering salvation from the human struggle.  It is also of global-level grand spectacle, often time of a diversionary nature created by world powers with hidden agenda.


In our present context, the “foul breeze” is the corruption scandal being raised by the US and while there is probably some truth about corruption in FIFA, the American attempt is diversionary in nature as it hides its own secret agenda.
