New Moon Charts 2020

This is a detailed aspectual analysis of the Ingress Charts(Cancer and Libra) and particularly the New Moon Charts of the months till December 2020. An attempt to interpret the planetary combinations in most simplistic manner has been done.

The Cancer Ingress of 21.06.2020 fell merely 9 hours before the Solar Eclipse which was visible almost throughout India.

The ingress chart has Taurus 26° rising- on Caput Algol, a violent fixed star. The Ascendant Lord Venus is the first planet to rise, is retrograde and is disposed by Mercury which is on 3^rd cusp. This Venus is also the 6^th lord and its aspectual relation with Saturn suggests continuance of the co-vid problem for some time to come but surely not with the same intensity.

The Ingress Sun is in 2^nd House in Rahu/Ketu axis. It forms an exact quincunx aspect with the 9^th lord Saturn. Further the 3^rd lord Moon is also involved in an exact quincunx aspect with Jupiter- the 8^th lord. Thus the 3-9 axis of international borders, troubled relations with neighbouring nations and also the 2^nd H matters (placement of Sun) like National esteem become the point of focus.

The lord of M.C.is on critical degrees and tenants the 12^thH. It makes a hard aspect with the 12^th lord Mars which is conjunct the natural 12^th lord Neptune. This is suggestive of the focus of entire Government machinery on matters of secret intrusion, onus on armed forces, recurrent troubles due to internal and external enemies. Instances of “honey trap” may fall out of the closet. Measures for Economic re-surrection may be on anvil. Another interesting feature of the chart happens to be that the 3^rd lord Moon, 8^th lord Jupiter and 12^th lord Mars are all on same degrees thus warning of terrorist attacks, border issues, attempts of infiltration, communal strife..

The Libra Ingress slated for 22^nd September 2020 has Aries 16° 44’ rising. Sun is in the 6^th H and is disposed by Venus which is in 12^th from it. With Cardinal signs on the quadrants, as many as 6 planets in angles this suggests a very action oriented period for the nation.

The Asc lord Mars is retrograde, on critical degrees and tenants the Asc itself. This Mars is involved in a very hard aspect with Pluto-the 8^th lord, Saturn -10^th lord(both in 10^th H) and Mercury the 6^th lord placed in the 7^th H. Thus the land of our nation, the common masses bear the brunt.

Further retro Uranus too tenants the Asc and is quincunx to Moon -4^th lord in 8^th hinting that we the citizens may have to bear unusual, sudden, explosive situations. The 2^nd and 7^th lord Venus forms a yod aspect with the 7^th cusp and Neptune- 12^th lord. This hints towards deceit or rather confusion as regards to International support. Foreign relations may require a re-think. Major changes perhaps unsettling ones may take place in the entertainment world. The Government may think of major disinvestment with Venus the significator of finance and 2^nd lord in hard aspectual relation with another significator of finance Jupiter and 8^th lord Pluto.

Thus both the Ingress charts depict a critical time overall for the nation as regards to International affairs, terrorist activities, escalation of border issues and possible communal flare up and worrisome economic scenario.

The Lunation Charts further provide a sneak preview of possible events.

This year soon after the Aries Ingress, we witnessed a New Moon, hence all the New Moon Charts have become more relevant. Their validity is for one entire month.

The July New Moon Chart

The Ascendant & its Lord Mars are on critical degrees.

There is a dominance of Cardinal Signs with as much as 10 Planets/Points in it. All the 4 angles are Cardinal thus indicating a pro-active mode as a nation as well as warns of a fast developing situation.

The Ascendant Lord Mars is also the co-Lord of the 8^th. That is conjunct the rising degree from 12^th House. This Mars is further involved in a hard aspect with Mercury (Lord of 3^rd, 6^th) right on 4^th Cusp. Uranus in its sign of fall is the first planet to rise and is known for upheavals, disruption of status quo. As many as 6 Planets tenant the 4-10 Axis. The new Moon too falls in the same axis which constitutes the 4^th,5^th lords and oppose Saturn the 10^th lord(exact). We can expect major announcements, changes, important policy decisions.

Thus the new Moon of July 2020 is far from comforting.

The August New Moon Chart

The New Moon of 19^th August 2020 has Virgo 26° rising. The Cardinal dominance as regards to quadrants shifts to duality. It denotes a very unstable situation & perhaps a matter that would change markedly.

The Ascendant Lord is in 12^th & New Moon too falls almost on the cusp of 12^th House warning of suffering through internal and external enemies.

The striking point of the chart is that the Luminaries, Nodes and Saturn are all on same degrees.

An exact Yod Aspect is activated between the Luminaries, the North Node & Saturn. Saturn which symbolises limitation, timing, repression, Karmic realignment forms the foot of the Yod.

The 4^th, 10^th, 12^th House highlighting our Land, Government & enemy activities add their own nuances to this “Finger of Fate” aspect highlighting Nation at Crossroads theme. The 8^th Lord Mars which is in its own sign and on 8^th  cusp on one hand  is involved in a soft aspect with the Luminaries though in 8^th, 12^th House but also in a hard aspect with the trio of Jupiter, Pluto, Saturn in another terminal house. Uranus tenants the 8^th House & is Sextile to Venus (unfriendly sign)- its dispositor which happens to be most elevated. Before summing up the August analysis, I feel imperative to highlight a couple of points that are based on Nirayana analysis.

India’s Independence Chart has Taurus rising & the sign Gemini has least points (19) & Capricorn has next least points (20) in Ashtakvarga.

History tells us that whenever signs of Gemini/Capricorn or Leo are afflicted India has faced difficult situations.

As per Vedic Analysis, the Ascendant Lord Venus is in sign Gemini through the month of August(Rahu is in Gemini till 3^rd week of September). Saturn continues to be Retrograde in Capricorn & the August New Moon falls in Leo.

As per Rashi Sankat Chakra, planets in signs Taurus- - Aquarius; Gemini- -Aries; Cancer- -Sagittarius & -Scorpio-Pisces sort of mutually afflict each other.

Luminaries, Nodes, Jupiter, Saturn thus further get severely afflicted.

Thus overall this potrays a grim picture. Events challenging internal & external security of the nation seem to be forewarned.

The September New Moon Chart

The September New Moon has Aquarius 17°56’ and New Moon at Virgo 25.

The New Moon is very close to 8^th cusp and is disposed by Mercury tenanting the 8^th H.

Moon being 6^th lord carries the 6^th house significations of disease, conflicts to 8^th H. Also this new Moon is trine to Saturn (exact, and on critical degrees) in 12^th H, further it is involved in an opposition aspect with Neptune in the Asc and in quincunx aspect with Mars. Another striking feature is the exact square aspect between Mercury and Jupiter(on 12^th cusp) and the quincunx aspect between it and Neptune. The New Moon in hard aspect with the Nodes afflicts the 2^nd H of National security as a whole. The Asc lord Uranus continues to be retro in the 3^rd H disposed by 8^th lord Venus in 6^th.

Thus this period of mid September-mid October continues to be very stressful with issues of  internal security , communal flare up..

The October New Moon Chart

The October New Moon at Libra 23°53’ falls in the 3^rd H of the New Moon chart whose rising point is Leo 12°50’

This New Moon continues to be in stressful aspects with Saturn, Pluto(6^th H) and Mars(retro in 9^th H). The 7^th Lord Uranus on critical degrees is on M.C. The New Moon falls in 7^th H with respect to Libra Ingress chart over the 6^th lord Mercury. Further a set of oppositions between Venus-Nepune in 2-8 axis and mercury-Uranus warn of general dissentment regarding some announcements perhaps regarding foreign policy, disvensement ..

The November New Moon Chart

The November New Moon at Scorpio 23 falls in 10^th H but quite close to 11^th cusp(with respect to the Libra Ingress it falls in 8^th H). It is disposed by Pluto in the Ascendant. The Yod aspect between the New Moon, Pluto-Jupiter and North node tenanting the 6^th H warns of conflict, repeated trouble spots because of a particular community.

The December New Moon Chart

The New Moon of December is at Sagittarius 23 and in 5^th H. The Ascendant is Leo 20.

This New Moon coincides with an eclipse though not visible in India and takes place just a week before the GREAT MUTATION. The new moon forms a T-square aspect with the North node and Neptune in 8^th H. It is disposed by Jupiter which tenants the 6^th H of challenges, public health..

This new moon and 9^th lord Mars form a grand trine aspect with natal Sun (independent India’s chart). We may see some improvement in situation like delayed international support or utilise it for our advantage as a nation and some matters reaching conclusion cannot be ruled out. However economic matters, strikes, strife, matters of national security may continue to dog us.

To sum up, it is a critical period for our nation. A grim economy coupled with unpredictable weather, possible seismic disturbances(Great Mutation chart Analysis), development of situations that could lead to communal flare up, escalation of border tension and infiltration attempts by neighbouring nations and last but not the least terrorist attacks by sleeper cells can be expected.
