A spectre haunts Europe, Karl Marx once wrote about the rise of communism, and history repeats itself. Now, however, it is not the left-wing radicals but the right-wing radicals, who hope to seize power. We know all too well what misery and massacres the radical left has caused, and that should be a warning. In Hungary, the corrupt Orbán-government was eventually sent home by the voters, in other countries the success of the radical right is still growing. Marine Le Pen seems to be heading for the presidency in France and the German AfD is also doing well.

Plutonic
In the United Kingdom, the spectre has taken on the guise of Nigel Farage with his UK Reform Party. Farage was one of the most influential proponents of Brexit, which has harmed the UK much, but strangely enough this does not diminish his popularity. Politics has little to with realities mostly. Man of the people Farage is an extremely wealthy ex-stock trader and conjunct his Ascendant is Pluto, associated great (plutonic) riches. After all, in the Hades that Pluto rules, all the transient, including money, gathers. Mercury is Lord 1 and Lord 10 of work (stock trader) and is in the ninth house, just like the Pars Fortunae – the soul’s hunger – and Venus. House 9 has to do with ideas and visions, hence Farage’s political activities.
Alcyone
The factors in the ninth house are in Taurus, the sign of Earth in the fixed mode, Lord 9 is Venus in Taurus in her domicile and about to enter Gemini. So Venus Lord 9 of ideas does not want to move forward, all significators point to holding, or even going back to the old situation. Lord 9 Venus is in conjunction with Alcyone the main star of the Pleiads that also have to do with separation: Brexit! The main star of the Hyads is on the MC, the Hyads are the nurses of little Dyonysos who sadly could not prevent him from growing into an incorrigible, uncontrollable drunk.
Andromeda
His Sun is strong in exaltaion , he knows how to be a leader and it conjuncts Alpheratz, the main star of Andromeda, the princess on the island (the UK) threatened by the Sea Monster (EU, migrants), saved by Perseus (Farage). Farage has those three conservative factors in Taurus in House 9, but also three planets in House 8 of death and great changes, so we see a man of a conservative revolution. At the moment, Farage is in trouble because of his financial affairs, he had not reported a large donation, he has given up his seat in Parliament and is running for re-election (in a by-election for that same seat). The secondary-progressed Moon now passing over Mars Lord 8 on Cusp 8 shows this development.
