The end of an era in Germany is coming and I predict that Angela Merkel will be on her way out as Chancellor of Germany in the next few months, and definitely by the turn of the year.
The reason is twofold. Firstly on her natal chart (17 July 1954, at 18.00 - Germany) her Midheaven sits at 21 degrees Libra. That point is due to be squared by transiting Pluto as we hit the end of the year. Remember, nothing ever stands in the way of Pluto, and this issues a fundamental change, and a loss of power in her profession and public role. Transiting Pluto will also simultaneously start to oppose her natal Sun at 24 degrees Cancer, a double Plutonian hit that will spell out the end of her political career.
Secondly on the national Chart of Germany, (3rd Oct 1990 at midnight in Berlin) the Midheaven is ruled by Mars, with Aries on the cusp of the 10th house. The German natal Mars sits at 12.23 degrees Gemini, and for a year or two now it has been degraded by a square from transiting Neptune. Neptune represents chaos and economic migrants in mundane Astrology, and no doubt the wave of immigration (Neptune in 9th house) has undermined the authority of the German government (Midheaven) that she has lead since 2005.
