I am offering these charts for members to study. Unfortunately, I dont have any time to offer delineation on most of them at present. Note that the two Korean ingress charts are already discussed on another thread. However, I have put them here again for completeness. Clearly, a lot of countries are missing. I have tended to list the most populous countries or those most likely to feature in the news. For example, Aghanistan or Israel. I will try to add more on later if time allows.

Charts that look interesting on a brief inspection are Thailand, Japan, and China. In the case of Thailand the ASC/DESC axis falls on the Lunar eclipse degrees at 29 Gemini/Sagittarius. Perhaps a sign that the political conflict and civil disruption that came to a head in Bangkok earlier this year may reemerge in the next quarter? Japan looks intriguing with the IC/9th house ruler on the MC. What is going on there? Political opposition to the government or a foreign policy issue such as Korea? In the case of China the Ascendant degree falls right on the Sun close to the NN. Does this strong cardinality and angularity indicate a dynamic period or does the Sun's role as ruler of the 8th house suggest a stalling of growth for new economic superpower? The testimonies seem mixed with Lord 2 in the cadent 9th while the MC is close to the fixed star Spica. The Moon opposes Mars ( Lord 4 and 11). Jupiter the natural significator of wealth is Lord 12 and in the cadent 3rd house. Indonesia also has Mars fairly close to the ascendant and Saturn to the MC. The Solar eclipse on January 4th falls right on the ascendant of the Capricorn Ingress for Indonesia. Burma has Lord 7 (mercury) right on the ascendant. The two Koreas have their own thread so please pass comment on them on that thread rather than here. Many of you will have noticed how close the solar eclipse in January is to the South Korean ascendant.
