King Charles III
Posted: Thu Sep 08, 2022 1:11 pm
Charles - until today the Crown Prince of England - today became King Charles III upon the death of his mother. Long live the king!
This dual event - loss of his mother and being elevated to perhaps the most respected monarchy on Earth - surely is astrologically significant.
Charles was born November 14, 1948, 9:14 PM GMT, at Buckingham Palace. He became king sometime in the afternoon of September 8, 2022, while at Balmoral Castle, 57N02'27", 3W13'48".
Several transits were broadly present, and may turn out important in his solunars, though no transits were exact for the event. Of his secondary progressions, the one fascinating detail is that his progressed Moon at 27°20' Sagittarius fell upon his mother's Ascendant (27°41' Sag) and Great Britain's natal Sun (28°11' Sagittarius), surely the most important degree in the modern British monarchy.
He likely was in London for his birthday - the SSR then having natal Jupiter-Uranus most angular (Jupiter in Sagittarius on MC) but with many secondary foreground planets.
His most recent SLR occurred August 17. For Balmoral, the most angular planet is Sun, ensign of royalty, 2°00' from Ascendant with Venus 0°29' from EP-a. Its most important foreground aspect, though, is the Sun-Saturn opposition across the horizon (2°49'). It shows both his becoming king and the sad route to doing so.
His demi-lunar August 31 is enormously complicated with 15 foreground planets (8 natal, 7 transiting). The closest, though, are transiting Jupiter 0°21' from Ascendant in near-partile opposition to natal Pluto 0°50' from Descendant. There are so many Jupiter-to-Pluto themes in this event, from his sudden elevation to his personal loss to the very distinct signature characteristic of Jupiter-to-Pluto, which is "gain from loss," as in inheritance etc. Both Neptunes are next most angular.
The demi-lunar has eight foreground transit-to-transit aspects, 15 transit-to-natal aspects, and five natal aspects. (Most of these are mundane aspects.) It's described primarily by Jupiter exactly rising opposite natal Pluto exactly setting, plus the two Neptunes; but what of all these aspects? Of the eight foreground transit-to-transit aspects, the closest (therefore, setting the tone) is Venus opposite Saturn for loss and grief. Transiting Sun opposes transiting Saturn 2°35' on one side and conjoins natal Saturn 1°10' on the other side. (Transiting Sun and Venus both aspect both Saturns.) There's a lot more if you dig, but way too much to detail.
