 The Storming of the Bastille occurred in Paris, France, on 14 July 1789, when revolutionary insurgents stormed and seized control of the medieval armoury, fortress, and political prison known as the Bastille. At the time, the Bastille represented royal authority in the centre of Paris. The prison contained only seven inmates at the time of its storming, but was seen by the revolutionaries as a symbol of the monarchy's abuse of power; its fall was the flashpoint of the French Revolution.

The execution of Louis XVI, a major event of the French Revolution, took place publicly on 21 January 1793. Louis XVI died at the guillotine. He was the last king to live at the Palace of Versailles, and the revolutionaries duly gave him the nickname “Louis the Last“.

Pluto was in Aquarius, and Saturn was in Pisces, and the same is happening  in 2023, Pluto will enter Aquarius on 23 March 2023, Saturn will enter Pisces on 7th March 2023. Last time Pluto was in Aquarius from 1777-1797, and within that period Saturn entered Pisces on 9th February 1788 (with Chiron (wounds) at 8° Gemini)–  one year before the beginning of the French Revolution.

The French Revolution brought  "Long live the Nation" instead of "Long live the King". This is a typically for Pluto in Aquarius, when people are going to figure they don’t need anymore their governments, leaders,kings, queens, they are building new world order, old system must die. They are the one who have all power!

In the horoscope of Storming of the Bastille we can see Mars placement (ruler of Sco Asc) in 8th house, house of war, dangerous, death, at 8 °  Gemini (again same degree). At 8 °  Gemini this year, on 12/13 January 2023, Mars turned direct. MC of this event was at 12 °  Leo and Venus is going to turn direct at 12 °  Leo on 4th September 2023, ’hitting’ Emmanuel Macron’s Mars at 11 °  Leo (which is part of his T square with Moon 14 °  Taurus and Uranus °  14 Scorpio).    

On 5th May 2023, there is the lunar eclipse at 14 ° -15 °  Scorpio, conjunct Macron’s Uranus at 14 °  Scorpio, opposite his Moon 14 °  Taurus, better say – this lunar eclipse is going to activate his natal T square, and whenever you see Moon/Uranus in intense aspect in the chart of leaders, together with Mars – we may expect revolutionary vibe in country, protesting, fire etc.

Even before that, on 20th April 2023, when we have the solar eclipse at 29 °  Aries, which is squaring Macron’s natal axis Asc/Desc over 28 °  Capricorn/28 °  Cancer – Macron’s chart is ’called out’. And ofcourse, transit Pluto is around his natal Asc for awhile, and it will be there during 2023 bringing him a lot of dramatical events, as natally he has Pluto in Libra in wide square with his Asc/Desc axis.

 

 

 

 

If we progress the chart of French Revolution for now, for 2023, we can see secondary progressed axis of Asc/Desc (28 °  Cancer/28 °  Capricorn) over Macron’s natal axis of Desc/Asc, and even over Macron’s draco Mars at 28 °  Capricorn, which is also a sign that during 2023 Macron should be in touch with the memory of Storming of the Bastille. Pluto will several times, in its retro and direct motion, during 2023, again cross over 28 Capricorn-end of July,whole August, big part of September,and for the last time during whole November and until Christmas in December, bringing him a lot of transformation, and facing with not such a nice events.

 I would mention the placement of secondary progressed Moon (of the French Revolution) too, as it is at 11 °  Scorpio, which ’calls out’ the memory of 3rd Saturn/Uranus square over 11 °  Aquarius/11 °  Taurus from late December 2021, which was very important for Macron (i.e. France)because his natal Mars (as the focal planet in his T square) has placement at 11 °  Leo. Axis 2/8 in the horoscope of the current 5th French Republic is over 11 °  Leo/11 °  Aquarius, it represents axis of money, investements, as well as death, dangerous situations.  The reason of today’s revolution may be economy issue! During the reign of Louis XVI France faced a major economic crisis. This crisis was caused in part by the cost of intervening in the American Revolution and exacerbated by a regressive system of taxation, as well as poor harvests in the late 1780s. That was the background of the French Revolution in 1789. Today, the background may be very similar – spending money on war in Ukraine, for example...

If we check Solar Arc of the French Revolution for this year, we see Mars (which I’ve mentioned at the beginning because it had a placement at 8°   Gemini) at 0°   Aquarius!!! This means that when Pluto enters Aquarius in late March 2023, it will touch Solar Arc Mars of the French Revolution and here we go, there is a lot of material for some ’ Bastile 2023’ again.

Also, Macron’s secondary progressed Mercury, ruler of his 8th (dangerous situations, death) just entered 0°   Aquarius too, so it will be ’hitted’ by Pluto several times during 2023. Mercury is dispositor of his natal Saturn at 0°   Virgo, and Saturn rules his natal Asc, which means that Mercury is his final dispositor, describes his outcome, his final destiny in time.

 

Asc of the French Revolution is at 2°   Scorpio, i.e. axis Asc/Desc is over 2°   Scorpio/2°   Taurus, and it was already activated in late October 2022 when we had the solar eclipse at 2°   Scorpio. The same axis is axis of draconic Uranus/Moon of Macron. This is a big sign that Macron’s past life is very linked with the French Revolution.   

 There is even more, Macron’s natal South Node (the spot of loss in everyone’s chart) is at 12°   Aries, conjuction the Moon (people) in the horoscope of the French Revolution. The horoscope of the death of King Louis XVI (21 January 1793, 10:20 am, Paris, France) had Asc at 13°   Aries. This all shows us that there is a strong karmic bond between Macron, today’s French President, King Louis’ XVI death and the event which the history called - Storming of the Bastille. 

During 2023, secondary progressed MC, as well as Solar Arc MC of the horoscope of Death of Louis XVI is going to be at 20°   Leo, where retrograde Venus and the Sun are going to make so called inferior (’lower’) conjunction on 13 August 2023. I would watch on that period, as retro Venus/Sun conjunction very oftern brings the contact with the Underworld, i.e. death literally.

I would also mention the Sun’s (King) placement at 1°   Aquarius in the moment when King Louis XVI died, and we know that Pluto is going to cross over the same degree during 2024.

Macron’s draco Venus, ruler of his natal Chiron (wound) and Moon – is at 9°   Gemini, conjunction with Mars at 8°   Gemini in the chart of French Revolution.

In the horoscope of King Louis XVI, we can see MC at 9°   Gemini, which is the place of Macron’s draco Venus (ruler of his natal Moon and Chrion from Taurus), which describes the link between those twoo. Plus, transit Mars was at 8°   Gemini when the French Revolution started (as well as transit Chiron in the moment when Saturn entered Pisces on 9th February 1788, one year before the Storming of the Bastille).

In the draconic chart of King Louois XVI we can see the Moon’s placement at 28°-29°   Aries, squaring Macron’s natal axis Asc/Desc over 28°   Capricorn/28°   Cancer, as well as Macron’s draco Mars at 28°   Capricorn. Just to remind you, secondary progressed chart for 2023 of the French Revolution has axis Asc/Desc over 28°   Cancer/28°   Capricorn. Again, we have the sign that the solar eclipse on 20th April 2023 at 29°   Aries may be important for France and the spirit of Storming of the Bastille.  

One more sign that Kind Louis XVI and today’s French President Macron are having very strong bond is this: ruler of King Louis XVI  Virgo Asc, is Mercury at 0°   Virgo. Ruler of Macron Capricorn Asc is – Saturn at 0°   Virgo! Draco Uranus (revolution) of King Louis XVI is at 0°   Virgo too!   When Saturn enters Pisces, on 7th March 2023 – axis 0° Pisces/0°   Virgo will be activated. I would speciall watch over 4th November 2023 when Saturn is going to turn direct at 0°   Pisces and again, for the last time, to ’hit’ 0°  Virgo, that may be the very important moment in time.

 

In the horoscope of current, 5th French Republic, we can see Uranus (symbol of revoluton, as well as ruler of its 8th house – dangerous, and ruler of its Chiron from 8th) at 15°   Leo. During 2023 Macron’s progressed Sun (he as President, his reputation) will be at 15°   Aquarius, across 15 Leo.  Both are so called Avatar degrees (as they are making 45°  with  0°  of cardinal signs) and they are well-known as so called ’buffer zones’. Here destiny is not easy, like you are between two totally different world.

In draco chart of French Revolution we can see the Moon’s  (nation, people) placemnt at 15°   Leo. And, if we do draco chart for the moment of death of King Louis XVI, we can see Sun’s placement at 15°   Leo too.  Can we conclude that Macron’s presidency is in dangerous during 2023? Well, yes..., and we will see...

No wonder why the lunar eclipse at 14°-15°   Scorpio (which I’ve mentioned already in this article) on 5th May 2023 may be very intense for France.

 

 

There is a spirit of ’Storming of the Bastille 1789’ in the air...

 

 

 At the end, we must mention Charles de Gaulle (the father of the current 5th French Republic) becaue his chart speaks too. His axis IC/MC is over Macron’s natal axis Asc/Desc, over 28°   Capricorn/28° Cancer. His natal Uranus (revolution, ruler of his Mars 11°   Aquarius –pay attention it is 11°   Aquarius) is at 29°   Libra – the solar eclipse on 20th April 2023 at 29°   Aries is going to ’call out’ De Gaulle’s chart too. The spirit of revolution is in the air, indeed. I would add that his secondary progessed Moon (nation) is at 28° Capricorn during March 2023, and in late April it will enter Aquarius where it will meet with transit Pluto, which is also such a big sign that French nation may go through such a deep metamorphosis, touching even the situation of death. His Solar Arc Saturn is at 29°  Capricorn, and it will be hitted by transit Pluto several time during 2023. His secondary progressed Sun is at 13Metamorphosis Aries, where is Macron’s natal South Node (the place of one life before previous one, and the place of our lessons, loss) at 12°  Aries, together with the Moon’s placement at 12°  Aries in the horoscope of French Revolution, as well as with the Asc of death of King Louis XVI at 13°  Aries.      

In de Gaulle’s draco chart, we must notice his axis IC/MC over 14°  Scorpio/14°  Taurus,which is fitting with Macron’s natal Moon/Uranus oppositon over 14°  Taurus/14°  Scorpio. All will be ’called out’ around 5th May 2023 – the lunar eclipse at 14° -15 ° Scorpio , which I’ve mentioned above several times .
