@James,
Yes, I fully understand.
With a view to the EU: In Germany people are presently much more concerned with the risk of getting more and more involved into the Ukraine war (lots of money and weapons from Germany - Putin is not amused). What will happen if Trump wins? In that case the situation here would be a critical one.
As you practise sidereal astrology: In spring 2025 (chart 1871) there will be the shift of the Dasas into the Mars Mahadasa - when using the Raman ayanamsa (which I prefer). It would be early 2027 using Krishnamurti. Mars in vedic strology is in house one aspecting house four with Saturn, Sun, Venus and Ketu there....

i haven't heard of Wolfgang Döbereiner

That's amazing.
He was the best astrologer of the last century.

"Best astrologer..."? - Very doubtful, I think. One should be careful with superlatives.
The treaty of Febr. 26, 1871 was a preliminary peace treaty - not more than that.
I do not think it could be the basis of a state chart. But- as we all know - it's not always easy to find the "ultimate" chart -
think, e.g. of the USA - I know at least six charts of that state.

The current German radix has an ascendant Cancer with Moon in 12. The cosmos does not follow the rules that humans set up. I think.

We have to learn to think the other thought, whether it is true or not, whether the earth is flat or not

it seems the people of the former east germany have a different view on this then those in west germany... i could be mistaken, but i have been trying to follow the dynamics in germany more closely which has led to reading all sorts of differing views on how they ( germans) process what is happening in the world today... not to sound like a broken record, but the nordstream destruction was a very big act of terrorism, hushed up in the media for the most part - but directly impacting germany in a very negative way.. i think germany would be well served to understand who is responsible for this and consider its options as a consequence...

James,
I can only agree. - German matters are important not only for that country, but for Europe as well. German developments and incidents, partly good, partly bad, partly horrible, have always had an impact on the Continent. In 1990 - the year of Germany reuniting - it was said (and generally accepted) that it would take a decade or two or even a generation to realize what was called the inner unification. Now, 34 years later the two parts seem to be drifting apart. (There are several reasons, it would take some time and too much space to give a detailed account...)
A lot will depend on the 1990 chart: October 3rd, 1990, 0:00 Mid-European Time, Berlin. This is not another chart of the state. It is the chart of the process of unification. At the same time it is the chart of the "Länder", newly founded at that moment in the East (Brandenburg, Saxony, Thuringia, Saxony-Anhalt, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern). When looking at the development within each of these Länder (correct term: Bundesland, plural Bundesländer) one has to refer the 1990 chart to the capitals of these Länder. Well, that region is not very large, but there will be some slight differences (AC degree, MC...).
I think the forthcoming general elections in late September 2025 could be the most important and decisive ones since 1990, if not since 1949. The elections will be on September 28th, 2025. A few days before that the AC will have reched Aquarius (rhythm 6 years a house, GOH). Howver, it can't be ruled out that the present government will break up, which might lead to elections before that date.

The Germany reuniting was a fault.

@ Fidibus,
you may have read the rules of the Forum (?) . No political comments as long as they are not linked to substantial astrological accounts.

@lunlumo

It is your eyes that see a political statement. Projection?
Astrological there is no new german reich on October, 3, 1990. That is why astrologers never use a german horoscope on that date. The german reichs always have a 20 degrees aries matter.

Fidibus

As I said: the 1990 chart is not a chart of the state. OK? Read - before answering.
