Chart for Queensland(Australia)

[Guest guest]

Queensland has just celebrated its Sesquicentenary(150yrs) and being a

resident here I decided to check out a possible chart.

I have given the details below.

 

I noted the headlines in the paper yesterday---

“Premier Anna Bligh faces a fiery clash with unions today over her

privatisation plans”.

At the time of the meeting Tr Mo was opposing natal Mo and tr Su was

conjunct natal 6L Mo. This event seems to fit with transits.

 

There are hundreds of major events to be checked.

This will be a useful research chart to see the effects of cyclones and

floods.

Queensland has had many damaging cyclones and major floods.

Natal chart for the State of Queensland(Australia)

 

 

 

In considering a natal chart for the state of Queensland(Australia) two

dates are important.

 

1.6th June 1859. Queen Victoria signed the Letters Patent at

Buckingham palace London creating a new colony. Queensland day is

celebrated on the 6th June each year.

 

2. The day(and time) the new governor proclaimed the new colony ie 10th

December 1859 in Brisbane. This is known as Proclamation day.

 

 

The Letters Patent of 1859 and the Order-in-Council are Queensland's

primary founding documents.

 

A dispatch from the Secretary of State in London on 11 October 1859,

stated that 'no separation is to take place until the Letters Patent

have been published in New South Wales and Queensland'. The Letters

Patent appeared in the New South Wales Government Gazette on 29 November

1859 and in the first issue of the Queensland Government Gazette on 10

December 1859, the day the new Governor, Sir George Ferguson Bowen,

arrived in Brisbane and proclaimed the new colony.

 

 

The following is from the Order in council----

 

ORDER IN COUNCIL empowering the Governor of Queensland to make laws,

and to provide for the Administration of Justice in the said Colony.

At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 6th day of June, 1859.

 

 

XXIV This Order shall take effect, except as therein otherwise provided, so

soon as Her Majesty’s Letters-Patent, erecting Queensland into a

separate Colony,shall be received and published in the said Colonies.

 

 

It seems that the 10th December 1859 is the appropriate date for a birth

chart for Queensland.

 

 

I have taken a time of 11.20 LMT on 10th December 1859, Brisbane as a

starting point to test some important events. This gives 18+deg Aquarius

as ascendant.

 

 

Main features of the Aquarius ascendant chart.

 

 

1. The birth of Queensland happened near a full Moon

 

2. The Sun occupies a prominent position in the chart in10H. Queensland

is known as the “Sunshine State”.

 

3. Exalted Moon is in 4H. In the planetary cabinet Moon represents the

Queen and Queen Victoria gave the final say on the formation of the

colony as well giving approval to the name “Queensland” in preference to

“Cooksland”.

 

4. The Moon has a malefic aspect on the Sun(Government). On one occasion

the Queen’s representative sacked the Prime Minister.

 

5. Ascendant lord Saturn aspects 3rd lord Mars closely. This shows that

there is favourable support for initiatives, arts, writing and sporting

endeavours.

 

6. Venus in 11H gives income through leisure and tourist industry.

 

7. Exalted Jupiter in 6H shows income through service and hospitality

industries.

 

8. Ra influences 12H,4H,6H,and 8H and Ke influences 6H,10H,12H and 2H

via MEPs

 

9. The Queensland coast is particularly vulnerable to damaging cyclones

and the state is susceptible to severe flooding. This is mainly due to

the natal aspect of Ra on the 4H MEP and 6th lord Moon.
