Netherlands-Mexico June 29, 2014 and astrology

An animal (a meerkat, see YouTube) predicted that The Netherlands will win Netherlands - Mexico on June 29. Should I believe him?

I try to find out if it helps to use the Midheaven of the final moment as the symbol of 'the result'. The nature of the planets in the coaches' natal chart 'hitting' this Midheaven could give some insight in their status quo on the final moment.

The Mexican coach Herrera has his best moment about half an hour after the official final moment of the match. That means, that if it is even at the final moment, Mexico could win the battle later. Herrera has transit Jupiter close to a trine with his natal Sun. That is what the Spanish coach had in 2012! But, I read that he is already certain of his contract, even if he loses, as a sort of a reward for the results up to now! That is reason for contentment already!

I would be more positive about the chances for the Netherlands if I didn't know that transit Mars is exactly conjunct Louis van Gaal's natal Neptune. I hope that he catches a cold and is not disappointed at all.

Of course, there is no hour of birth for the coaches, there are two teams of 11 persons and there is a whole nation supporting the teams... It is not a prediction, it is an experiment. Up to now Louis van Gaal's team and tactics keep giving amazing results. So don't bet on it, please. Just ask yourself what you would think of it if you saw the charts (they are on Astromarkt: http://astromarkt.nl/nederland-mexico2014.html )

PS Any video of an animal predicting that Mexico will win? And is that animal, btw, living in Mexico?:) This Mexican dog thinks it will be Holland! In fact, almost everybody thinks so. So...perhaps this is really the last fase of the experiment to see correspondence between the results of a football match and the chart of that moment (related to the coaches' charts). I actually hope so, because it is a lot of work and I don't really like football.

Astrology and WC2014

Charts Spain-Netherland and Australia-Netherlands

The Mercury Retrograde episode prevented that I would publish my weekly column on Astromarkt.net in less than 3 efforts, so I can only hope that this post will be online today. It is sort of a translation of the column and it is about football. It takes a lot of time to analyse charts of football matches and I don’t have much time now that I am back from a 4 week journey and see the washes and the garden...

But astrology keeps calling, and today is Father's Day, so I had a look at Spain-Netherlands and Australia-Netherlands.

Previously I found a correspondence between Midheaven of the final moment of a match and the charts of the coaches. This time only Del Bosque’s Chiron square Midheaven and no major or minor aspect with the chart of Louis van Gaal.

Now that is not very surprising, since we all knew that the Netherlands would win at the moment that it was 1-3 and even more 1-4. I cheered before the final moment and so did almost everybody (expect the fans of Spain, of course). Van Gaal’s Venus on the actual Midheaven of that moment revealed that a wish came true: he was happy. The final moment held no surprise or emotion that hadn’t been expressed in an earlier stage.

That, dear readers, makes it complicated to look at football with astrologer’s glasses on. Any moment in the game can be the ‘ultimate’ moment! And shouldn't there be an astrological exclamation when you see the results: 5 to 1? It’s just that I am too curious not to give it a try again, that you see the chart of the official final moment of Australia-Netherlands here.

For a larger picture, click on it.

Please keep in mind, that transit Uranus is in aspect with the natal and progressed Sun of Van Gaal these days and that Uranus is the symbol of what can’t be predicted at all. Uranus is for tension, excitement and surprise, surprise! But, how about that double Mars-Jupiter interaction? This seems to reflect successful action and competition.

Above are the charts (the transits are the positions on the day of birth of Dutch coach Van Gaal) and… don’t forget to enjoy Fathers’ Day! You’ll know the results of the match soon enough! If astrology could be used to 'predict' the results, astrologers would be billionaires. Knowing that, doesn't stop me from having a look at the charts.
