Silvio Berlusconi – Stepping down as Italy slides into financial meltdown

He has been at the head of Italian politics in three separate periods since 1994, a huge figure of influence who courts controversy, however this time I doubt if the great survivor can escape the clamour for him to step down. Yesterday, he said that he would be resigning, and if the transiting planets are anything to go by, this time he will have to be true to his word.

Silvio Berlusconi – On the edge of a precipice

 

He has dodged the bullet several times in his political career, but this time I believe that Berlusconi will not survive the pressure building upon him and the stars clearly show this. Below is his natal chart - things to look out for - his Sun in socially orientated Libra in the first house conjunct Mercury which is on the point of a natal Yod (more of that later).  He is a workaholic, both Moon and Saturn in the 6th, severe on anyone who works for him, and would have had a tough upbringing - his mother would have been hard on him). Pluto is power hungry in 10th, house and connected to his Venus in the 2nd by a tight square (I use warm colours reds orange where the energy flows easily - trines & sextiles and blues and purples for tension or blockages - oppositions & squares).
