Prime Minister Liz Truss (September 6, 2022)

My friend, David, took me to task for not giving the new UK Prime Minister a chance. He’s right, of course. I was trying to to warn everyone that astrologically, Liz Truss is not what she appears.

This chart is timed for the scheduled meeting with the Queen @ 12:10 pm on the day. So, again, it’s interesting to me that such a time would be chosen, since it highlights one Yod and one inconjunct that are totally time dependent. The Universe must know something that we mere mortals do not.

Mars Inconjunct Ascendant

The difficulty with this aspect is to find a balance between getting what you want in life and getting along with others. More than most people, you will have to learn the necessity of compromising to get along with people, especially because you often seem more aggressive than you are.

Learn to work for the good of others by making their objectives your objectives, whenever possible. This aspect can signify the ability to accomplish a great deal, as long as you do not spend all your time and energy feeling angry or resentful about seemingly undeserved defeats. When you have a real goal to work toward that you can share with others, you will be able to attain that goal.

Jupiter Inconjunct Ascendant

With this aspect, you may discover that in order to grow and get ahead in life, you will have to put aside your own needs and do whatever the situation or other people require. At times you will go through tremendous and possibly painful creative changes in your life, in which everything you are is replaced by a new order. Your environment may change radically, or you may lose all your old friends and find a whole set of new ones. During these times you will arrive at new understandings and realizations that make it impossible for your life to continue as before. You must always be open to new ideas and be willing to change your outlook on life.

Probably you will accomplish the most if you direct your energies to tasks that benefit others as well as yourself. It may be that much of your work will not benefit you directly, but in the long run you will gain from it. This is not merely a plea for you to be unselfish, but an assertion that you will always achieve your goals most quickly by doing work that helps others.

Pluto Inconjunct Midheaven

You may have trouble with older people who try to teach you how to effectively take control of your life. You may resent their control over you and resist everything they are trying to teach you. To a great extent, your path in life will be shaped by your early confrontations with authority figures. Your teachers should be very straightforward with you, because if you feel that people are not being honest with you, you will not be honest with them. You are quite capable of acting behind peoples’ backs if you consider it necessary or if you feel that you never get your way.

Interactively, there is only one inconjunct and that connects Ms Truss’ natal Moon with the event’s Mercury, which, not surprisingly, is conjunct her natal Pluto. It will require a great deal of thinking to not react with emotion. (In other words, her reactions may be dependent on her surroundings…)

When you are calm and collected and able to reflect carefully, you make decisions in one way. But when you are emotionally involved in a situation, you are likely to make up your mind very differently, which could cause you to seem inconsistent to others and make it difficult for them to understand you.
