Tony Blair’s Peculiar Situation

Saturday, March 01, 2003

 

Just got finished studying Blair’s Vedic chart. It

appears that he may have some serious trouble getting

himself reelected.

 

Balir has Jupiter and Mars in the Taurus Asc, with

Jupiter ruling the 8th and Mars ruling the 12th

houses. In addition, he is running the Dasa of BOTH

planets as we speak! Jupiter/Mars has been in ops

since April of 2002 and will continue until March of

this year, when Jupiter/Rahu takes over. Ordinarily

Jupiter-Mars combinations are very positive, but

Blair’s chart is a very good example of how important

a role planetary rulerships play in a Vedic horoscope.

The 8th and 12th house, both of whom fall into the

class of Houses known as the Trik Houses, almost

always suggest difficulty and stress, unless other

factors come into play elsewhere in the chart. Because

Blair is a politician at the highest level of

government, such a state of affairs – having the 8th

and 12th lords running their dasas – is a very

problematic situation, and this accounts for his

growing unpopularity with his own electorate at the

present time.

 

When it comes to Mundane Astrology work, I usually use

the actual chart of the leader of the nation, whenever

possible. I do this because I have found that this

method tends to give better results than merely

dealing with national charts alone. In fact, my

writings on the USA were based in large part on Bush

Jr’s chart, not that of the USA itself.

 

Going back to Blair, he’s also on the tailend of Sade

Sati, the 7 ½ year transit of Saturn over either the

Asc or the Moon. In this case, it’s his Asc (his

popularity; in a national sense, “the people”) that is

undergoing the Sade Sati. All of this, the Dasa scheme

and the transit scene, does not augur well for Blair,

neither for his support for Bush’s War on Terror and

Iraq specifically, nor for his own reelection bid.

 

It is also interesting to note that Blair’s 11th house

of allies and friends in the International Community

is important as well; note that he has his Asc ruling

Venus in the 11th and exalted. This same exalted Venus

is in exchange with 11th lord Jupiter, which is in the

Asc itself. However, this alliance does not come

without its problems, as Jupiter is also the 8th lord,

suggesting a dimunition of personal popularity and so

on, as we have seen; only a few weeks ago, hundreds of

anti-war protesters, most of them having voted for

Blair in the last elections, marched in the streets of

London’s Trafalgar Square.

 

Blair will have the Dasa of Saturn beginning in August

of 2005; I don’t know when the British PM elections

are next held, but if it is anytime before that date,

Blair will have a hard time being reelected. First

off, he has the Dasa of the 8th lord in general, with

Rahu soon to come into the picture as sub period.

Second, he has the Sade Sati transit in operation.

Third, this Dasa of Jupiter is about to end, and such

times are not good for mounting things such as

reelection campaigns.

 

All in all, I have a hard time seeing Blair being

reelected, especially if this war goes on and it ends

badly.

 

We’ll see.

 

Salaam,

Mu
