Iran – Revolution?

In the aftermath of the disputed June 12 election, street protests and dissent from powerful clerical and political figures, have presented one of the gravest threats to Iran’s authority since the system emerged from the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

In a national chart, the Moon and the fourth house both represent ‘the people’. In Iran’s 2009 Solar return, both the Moon and the ruler of the fourth house (Venus) are right at the top of the chart in the most prominent position.

The Mid-heaven represents ‘the government’ or ‘the ruler’ and is flanked by the two symbols that represent ‘the people’. All three points are squared by Pluto, indicating change through death and rebirth. Matters cannot remain the same. Astrology does not indicate which side will prevail but does delineate the energies involved.

Another indication of the current struggle is Uranus directly opposite Saturn (same degree) representing the clash between ‘new’ and ‘old’.
