Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the brother of King Charles III, was briefly arrested by UK police on Thursday on suspicion of misconduct in public office. He was later released and remains under investigation. Mountbatten-Windsor was stripped of his royal titles last year over his past friendship with disgraced US financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein

The astrological horoscope for Prince Andrew (born February 19, 1960, around 15:30 in London) is striking, especially in light of the timing around February 17–19, 2026. His natal Sun is at 0° Pisces part of a tense Grand Cross involving fixed signs or challenging aspects, including a square from Kronos (a transneptunian point associated with authority, elevation, and sometimes abuse of high position or hubris) to Pluto (power, transformation, corruption, hidden forces, and extremes). Kronos-Pluto contacts often symbolize themes of abuse of power, manipulation from elevated positions, scandals involving authority figures, or downfall through overreach and shadowy dealings.
The February 17, 2026, annular solar eclipse (New Moon at approximately 28° Aquarius 49') occurs very close to his natal Sun but in Aquarius—about 2° orb from a conjunction by sign to his Pisces Sun (since Aquarius-Pisces are adjacent). Eclipses conjunct a natal Sun are potent, often marking major life resets, identity shifts, visibility crises, or culminations in personal authority and public role. This one activates his chart's power dynamics (Grand Cross/Kronos-Pluto) by illuminating those natal tensions, potentially forcing exposure or karmic reckoning related to abuse of position.
The eclipse on the MC (Midheaven) in London suggesting a highly visible "fall" or dramatic shift for a royal/public figure tied to that location. It's square a tight conjunction involving Uranus (sudden upheaval, shocks, rebellion) with asteroids Alicanto (around 27° Taurus in transit/context) and Lempo (around 26° Taurus). Alicanto (from Chilean folklore) symbolizes karmic justice for greed—a bird that lures the greedy to treasure but leads them to ruin (e.g., cliffs), representing false allure, empty shine, or punishment for avarice/exploitation.
Lempo (from Finnish mythology) originally tied to love/fertility but demonized into themes of perversion, distortion of positive energies (like love/affection into selfish, demonic, or manipulative forces), unrequited desire, deception, or chaotic downfall.
This square from the eclipse to that Uranus-Alicanto-Lempo cluster amplifies sudden, disruptive revelations involving perversion of benign forces (e.g., relationships/power turned exploitative), greed-driven missteps, and karmic backlash.Astrologically, this setup aligns with intense public scrutiny, exposure of hidden abuses, or a precipitous fall from grace tied to power misuse—especially resonant given Andrew's long-standing associations with Jeffrey Epstein-related controversies. Remarkably, on February 19, 2026 (Andrew's 66th birthday, just two days after the eclipse), major developments unfolded: UK police arrested the former Prince Andrew (now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor) on suspicion of misconduct in public office, linked to allegations from recently released Epstein files (including claims of sharing confidential documents with Epstein during his trade envoy role). This followed his earlier stripping of royal titles, eviction from residences, and ongoing fallout from Epstein ties. King Charles III commented that "the law must take its course."While the eclipse itself was an annular "ring of fire" visible primarily in remote Antarctica (not the UK, where it wasn't visible at all), its astrological symbolism—new beginnings via crisis, exposure, and karmic completion—appears to have manifested powerfully in real-time events tied to authority, scandal, and public downfall.This is a textbook example of how eclipses on sensitive natal points (especially involving power asteroids/ hypotheticals) can coincide with life-altering headlines. The timing feels eerily precise for themes of Kronos-Pluto abuse of power meeting karmic justice (Alicanto) and distortion/perversion (Lempo) via sudden shock (Uranus square).
