Transits of the outer planets in relation to the capital and government of New Zealand
Saturn conjunct Wellington between May 2022 and March 2023
The transit of Saturn over 27°Aquarius conjunct the astrogeographical resonance degree of Wellington between May 2022 and March 2023 can be expected as a period of stabilization of the country´s government, political institutions and independence.
But Saturn is more than mere stabilization of institutions: his transits indicate the need for reforms – with uprisings not excluded as the example of Saturn`s transit over Ukrainian capital Kiev during the Euromaidan Riots of 2013 shows.
The last Saturn conjunction occurred between December 2017 and October 2018 when Saturn moved over the 1°Capricorn resonance degree of New Zealand`s capital and government. The new government under Jacinda Ardern was elected and sworn in on October 26 2018 with Saturn moving direct at 24°Sagittarius. prime Minister Jacinda Ardern born 26 July 1980 is related to this “first degrees Capricorn topic of Wellington” through the Moon position in the first decade of this sign.
The transit of Uranus over Wellington between June 2024 and February 2026
The transit of Uranus the planet of globalization, rebellion and self-finding over 27°Taurus the sign of markets, income, wealth, agriculture and food production and square to the 27°Aquarius astrogeographical resonance coordinate of the capital and government in Wellington can be expected as a period of intense pressure and threats to the economical, social and territorial autonomy, autarky and independence of New Zealand through global politics and larger economies.
As Uranus is the sign ruler of Aquarius his transit should be optimally used to update dealing with technology, social and political institutions, globalization and climate change.
The tension and challenges that arise from this square transit of Uranus will be further intensified by a simultaneous square transit from Neptune between March 2025 and January 2028.
Nepune square to Wellington between March 2025 and January 2028
The simultaneous square transits of Uranus and Neptune to the astrogeographical positions of the capital and government in Wellington between March 2025 and February 2016 are a predictable future challenge to the independence of New Zealand.
- A positive outlook on these transits should recommend taking these transits as positive stimulations of processes of self-finding, development of autonomy and autarky, holistic technologies in dealing with climate change and with threats from economic and social globalization.
