.: Questions about politics

[Guest guest]

Dear ,

 

I have some questions about politics.

 

In a mundane chart, do you think we it is possible to distinguish between a democratic and a dictatorial form of government? If so, what would be the key guideline. Typically, the democratic form of government is considered benign and the dictatorial form of government adverse.

 

In the latter instance, as the following list shows, there have been some notable dictators in the world in modern times, although most of them have died, some still remain in power. Moreover, recently there have been indications that rulers of a few countries are in the early stages of assuming dictatorial powers, e.g. Hugo Chavez of Venezuela and Valdimir Putin of Russia.

 

This raises the question of what it is that explains such a development. To explain this form of rulership should one look to

- the natal chart of the dictator, such as the yoga for power through placement of the Sun

- the natal chart of the country, including dasas

- transits of slow moving planets through signs

or all of the above.

 

If it were considered due to the Sun being a powerfully placed planet in the natal chart, would it be more likely to be a functional malefic planet?

 

Best wishes,

 

Thor
