What was her "astrological" reasoning, may I ask?

Did Archie express any opinion on the matter in question?

It was on a radio interview where she just said he will 'hit the buffers' in two years but nothing else so I looked at her site and found this -

His personal chart, 2 September 1962, is talented, determined, controlling and not always realistic – with a central Water Grand Trine which can be creative/healing and also lives in its own bubble detached from outer events and that is formed into a hard-driving Kite by a Jupiter opposition Pluto Sun in Virgo. There is a good deal more high-octane fuel in his tank than is obvious from his dull exterior. Not that it will help as he is running into the buffers in 2025/26 in a terminal meltdown, politically speaking. Angela Raynor might benefit in 2025 but Lisa Nandy won’t.

I can’t see Starmer lasting over the next three years.

Still no explanation as such but the reason should be easy to locate.

I think what you said makes a lot of sense!

Astrological charts don't lie. Look at the time chart when Sunak announced the UK election date.

The real economic situation is as follows: L2 Mars in Aries conjoins the North Node in the 6th house, while Saturn in Pisces counter-antiscially conjoins Mars and the Moon "wants" to transfer Saturn's (deflation) light to Uranus (inflation) in an attempt to reach some balance. However, since the aspect between them is challenging and they lack mutual reception, the "transmission" is not enduring. The Scorpio Moon in the 2nd house may indicate a change in public (Moon) demand or a lack of demand (the Moon in Cancer and Taurus represents a demand for something, so when the Moon is in the opposite signs, it represents a lack of that demand).

In short, the current drop in inflation is only a temporary phenomenon.

News Report:

Central News Agency, London, May 22, 2024 (Comprehensive Foreign News Report) - Official UK data released today showed that with further weakening of energy prices, the UK's annual inflation rate for April fell to its lowest point in nearly three years, boosting the standing of the ruling Conservative Party ahead of this year's general election.

The Office for National Statistics stated in a press release that April's Consumer Price Index fell from 3.2% in March to 2.3%, still above analysts' expectations of 2.1%.

April's inflation rate is the lowest since July 2021, when the inflation rate was at the Bank of England's target of 2.0%.

Earlier this month, the Bank of England hinted at a potential interest rate cut in the summer. The Bank of England has maintained the main interest rate at a 16-year high of 5.25% to further curb rising prices.

Following the release of the inflation data, most analysts stated that the Bank of England is unlikely to cut rates as early as June. It is anticipated that the European Central Bank will lower the main interest rate in the eurozone in June. (Additional information: On June 6, the European Central Bank announced a cut in the benchmark deposit rate for the 20 euro-using countries by 25 basis points, from a historic high of 4% to 3.75%) https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/zh/news/5885837

With global inflationary pressures easing, it is expected that the US Federal Reserve will also cut rates this year.

Keir Starmer, 2 September 1962, does have tr Jupiter in Gemini square his Sun Pluto in Virgo exactly on the day of the election which should give him a mild boost. He looks energized now till late May, jittered and jangled through June. His Leadership chart looks uncertain through June and is moving through a gruelling several-year phase which won’t end soon. Plus his personal chart shows major confusion from SA Pluto conjunct his Neptune this year and then SA Sun conjunct his Neptune probably early next year; and a car-crash (metaphorically speaking) late 2025/26 with Solar Arc Mars conjunct his Sun Pluto. If he does win, it won’t last; or personal issues will interfere with his ambitions.

as for the idea of a uk leader lasting very long - look at the recent track record
therese may - 3 years
rishi sunak - less then 1 year
liz truss - 50 days
boris johnson - 3 years

with the last 4 having such a stellar career as pm of the uk, it would be very predictable to suggest the next one won't last for any length of time, let alone 2 years, lol... odds favour a short term for the next one at this point and that has nothing to do with astrology.. go with the trend, lol.. orrs fan club isn't warranted with predictions like this..

The Economic Situation in the United Kingdom

https://www.gov.uk/government/statistic ... eb-version

From this economic report, we observe data up to the end of March 2024.

The total value of UK trade has decreased by 2.8% over the past 12 months. Imports exceed exports, resulting in a trade deficit. The export of services, primarily business and financial services, surpasses that of goods. The exported goods are mainly consumer and luxury items (such as cars) and intermediate generators. The industrial structure lacks high-tech industries and raw materials.

Given the inability to expand trade (to obtain energy and wealth from outside), the only option is to increase domestic GDP and adjust internal redistribution (at least to make the populace feel content).

(The harsh truth is: increasing GDP alone cannot make a country wealthy, but it might make most people feel satisfied. Back in the day, Britain became the Empire on which the sun never set primarily due to its colonial economy. The harsh truth: we are in an entropy world.)

Regardless of who becomes the future Prime Minister of the UK, if they cannot manage the economy well, their tenure will be short-lived.

Let us predict the future economic trends of the UK from an astrological perspective (using the solar ingress charts).

Can AI Steve Become an MP?

I read a news report about the world's first AI candidate running for UK Parliament. Of course, behind it is still a human, a businessman named Steve Endacott.

I'm curious, can AI Steve become an MP?

This is a horary chart. I'm the querent, but this issue has nothing to do with me, and my actions cannot directly influence the outcome. Therefore, I removed myself from the chart.

The Moon (voters) square (distrust) Saturn (AI Steve) gives me the answer: NO.

On July 4th, coincidentally the sun is at its minimum influence (Earth at aphelion), reducing its impact on Venus. The Labour Party has encountered a favorable opportunity.
