Volodymyr Zelensky – A “no war” President

Comedian Volodymyr Zelensky announced a snap parliamentary election during his swearing-in as Ukraine's new president. The election was expected to take place in October 2019. But at the ceremony in Kiev Mr Zelensky said "I am dissolving the Verkhovna Rada (parliament)". He said ending the conflict with Russian-backed rebels in the east would be his top priority.

Eclipses continue to affect events long after they are gone and  tend to bring about endings and new beginnings.  This is particularly true in places where they fall prominently on the horizon or meridian axes.  The Partial  Solar Eclipse of August 11, 2018 fell on  the meridian at Kiev.

In his blogpost on the August 11, 2018 New Moon entitled Head of the Lion - Leaving the Boundaries of Known Self,  Nick Fiorenza wrote:

This eclipse lunar cycle impels a quest to break free from the confines imposed by the traditions of our heritage, and from the bounds and limitations self-imposed by our acquired beliefs. Adventurism, exploration, breaking trail, to be inventive, to go where we have not gone before, are all themes here. These are actions that require the courage of self-conviction, belief in self and in our paths in life, to have the inner confidence to step away from the convention of mass consensus and beyond the boundaries of known self.

The Mars-Ketu conjunction brings emphasis to established tendencies regarding the use of our creative initiative and the use of power in the world. In this area of Capricorn, it especially brings emphasis to the militaristic use of power. This applies to all of the Mars-Ketu conjunctions and the entire retrograde cycle. This entire energetic, extending from June through September is about redefining these past patterns and tendencies, impelling us, both personally and globally, to elevate the expression of Mars.

In other words, the eclipse is asking Ukraine to get out of past patterns of going to war.

Now let us progress the eclipse chart to May 20, the date of the new president’s inauguration. Notice that the Mars-Uranus-Nodal axis Grand Cross aligns with the meridian  and is thereby triggered.

 Can it be a coincidence that Volodymyr Zelensky (born January 25, 1978) has his natal Sun [5aq] opposite a retrograde Mars [0le] which aligns with the eclipse nodal axis implying that he was  chosen to express the “no war” retrograde Mars!
