Syria looks next in line for a 2011 revolution with the government using “jets and tanks, sustaining fire with machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades” [CNN] on it’s own people. I’m going to look at two horoscopes which may describe what is happening with the protests in Syria, and whether or not the Assad regime will fall. The two charts are for the independence of Syria from France in 1944, and for beginning of the current Assad regime with a coup in 1970. The astrology does show the violence and links to terrorism with which Syria is associated, and also that the crisis is intensifying rapidly.

The two horoscopes are based on the research of the contemporary world expert on mundane astrology and national horoscopes, Nick Campion. The references at the bottom of this post will show the details. So the first chart is for Syrian Independence*.

Syria Astrology Chart

The Ascendant of the Syria astrology chart is 13 degrees Libra. So the malevolent fixed star Algorab is rising, associated with terrorism. This rising star is also the action point of a Yod aspect pattern to the Moon and Vertex Point. This critically placed Ascendant will be activated by the April 2014 Grand Cross. Boom!

Mars conjunct Uranus, both retrograde point to explosive violence, protest and revolution. Both are on the fixed star Hyadum I in the Hyades star cluster which gives “tears, sudden events, violence, fierceness. Striving for prestige leading to power politics leads to tremendous success in life if bridled, if not, failure and a fall from power. May exploit other human beings in quest of power.”

Peace is a struggle with Venus square Jupiter.  Rebellion and military action. Note also that the Syrian Jupiter in on the fixed star Adhafera in the Lion’s Mane, ” liquid explosives, liquid fire”.

Independence: “the French finally agreed to transfer all the mandate powers to the Syrian Government on 1 January 1944…An actual time of 00:00 hrs would be consistent with the time for the transfer of mandate powers in other states”.
Assad Regime: “The regime was brought to power in a coup…at dawn on 13 November 1970”.
