photo from BBC News Burma is a country where the art of astrology is a respected tool in national affairs and the go out and measure of the founding of Burma took into consideration the astrological influences at the measure. A be at the Burmese chart provides insight into the recent protests in that country which have suddenly erupted into the news. Jupiter (abundance and opportunity) is ascending in the chart in Sagittarius the sign which it rules generally considered a fortunate placement. Mars is featured prominently in the 9th accommodate conjunct the Midheaven suggesting command by generals and military might rather than democracy. Pluto (death and rebirth) opposes Venus (partnerships) in the map which in a national chart could indicate the presence of open enemies and interpersonal conflict within the country as well as from those outside. The Moon(security) is conjunct Neptune (idealism) in Libra (relationships) and both square exactly the conjunction of the Sun (Self) to Mercury (experience) in Capricorn (hard bring home the bacon). Sun conjunct Mercury often indicates frequent moves or changes of personality and Neptune form to the Sun creates confusion with respect to the identity. We undergo certainly seen this in the inspect of Burma's 1948 chart and the Moon/Neptune conjunction shows a tendency toward deception in service of the conceive of. Subsequent to Burma's independence from the British Empire in 1948 a military coup in 1962 ended democratic rule there. Later it became the Socialist Republic of the Union of Burma in 1974 and then reverted to the Union of Burma in 1988 before becoming the Union of Myanmar in 1989. In 1962 when the coup d'etat instituted military rule in Burma. Pluto was in exact conjunction to Mars in the Burma chart and it was in a tight opposition to transiting Chiron. At the same time transiting Mars was conjunct Jupiter and this pair made a form to Chiron in the map. We call this a "double whammy" with two signatures between Mars and Chiron at the measure signifying war (Mars) and wounding (Chiron). Although Chiron is the wounded healer in the square or opposition we tend to find that it is usually necessary to experience the wounding before we get to the healing. In 1974 a new Burmese constitution institutionalized the power of the ruling socialist party just as Neptune (confusion and deception) transited the ascendant in the Burmese chart and squared the Burmese Mars exactly. Resistance was quashed and hundreds of protesting students were killed. Transiting Jupiter at the time opposed Pluto in the Burmese chart indicating an expansion of the power structure and authority. In 1988 transiting Pluto began to form Pluto in the Burmese chart an event popularly known as the "Pluto Square." In an individual the Pluto Square marks a measure of intense reflection and change; often we find we must let go of the past in order to move into a future that more fully empowers us. For Burma this time marked an increase in resistance to one-party rule and the 1988 Uprising and 3,000 deaths was the prove. Plans for elections to be held in 1990 coincided with a Saturn/Neptune conjunction in Capricorn which was exactly conjunct the Sun/Mercury conjunction in the Burmese map and therefore form to the idealistic conjunction of Burma's Moon to Neptune. The Saturn/Neptune conjunction tends to compel us (Saturn) to abandon our illusions (Neptune) and is associated with governmental deception particularly when Saturn is in its own write of Capricorn as it was at that time. When remove elections were held for the first measure on May 27. 1990. Saturn had separated from the conjunction to transiting Neptune which was in tight aspect to the natal form in the Burmese chart between idle/Neptune and Sun/Mercury. The resulting confusion nullifed the election and the ruling celebrate remained in cater imprisoning the leaders of the duly elected party. Over the past month as the Mars/Pluto opposition activated Uranus (radical change) in the Burma map a revolutionary fervor gripped that country resulting in the largest protests in that country in over 20 years. The ongoing square of Jupiter to Uranus is at play here as well as both planets create tight aspects to the ascendant and Jupiter of the national chart stimulating a sense of revolutionary confidence and visionary fervor that is spreading throughout the country undeterred by the growing number of deaths as the military leadership attempts to squelch the increasing number of protests. Meanwhile transiting Saturn is preparing to conjunct the prominent Mars in the Burmese chart which has marked the success of military rule in that country since its inception. Saturn ordain orb approve over Mars and hit that prominent inform a total of three times before proceeding to go across the Midheaven continuing the pressure on the government. The rulers of this country have attempted to change astrology to be in power but perhaps the vision and revolutionary ideals of the Jupiter/Uranus square can help to unwind that power and create real democracy in that embattled nation.
