New hopes bubble in Spring

Happy Spring! especially to those who use the Sun’s return to 00Aries00, aka the Aries Point, as the beginning of the natural year, aka Spring.

And if you use America’s ‘Sibly’ chart (July 4, 1776 5:10 pm LMT) or the Rudhyar chart which is within a degree on the angles (appr 5:13 pm LMT, if I remember correctly) then you know that the IC (Immum Coeli) of the chart is now being visited by today’s Sun which will transit the 4th House of America’s natal chart.

4th House is the Domestic Scene (including what is needed to feel psychologically ‘at home’), the homeland, or in a word, HOME. It is the department of life in a horoscope which encompasses Real Estate, so will the Sun’s warm rays help ease real estate problems in the US?

Although negative factors are affecting America’s natal chart now such as transformative Pluto 1Cap+ lining up to oppose natal planets Venus, Jupiter, and Sun in the next few years, today’s entry of the Sun into Aries and the US 4th House highlights and warms our domestic scenes perhaps bringing some small relief to our ongoing worries.

And for 2008, there’s Jupiter in opposition to the US’s money/business line-up in Cancer (Venus, Jupiter, Sun)–here’s a link to my discussion of these transits the pinch of which we are feeling now:

Yet hope springs eternal and never more than in the season of Spring!
