A radical shift in New Zealand politics is underway
under the influence of the
October 2017 New Moon
Under the MMP political system the minor party NZ First reached the position after the September 23 election, to negotiate a coalition deal with either the Right or Left party.
On October 19 NZ First leader Winston Peters announced that he had chosen to partner with the left bloc led by Labour.
With Labour already married to the Green Party, this then became a union of 3 political entities.
Labour Leader Jacinda Ardern takes the role of Prime Minister and other roles will be announced in due course.
The astrological factors bringing about this combination have been profiled in prior posts
- a profile on Peters from 2014
- a comparison between Ardern & opponent English
- a comparison between an Ardern-Peters combo versus a Peters-English combo
The indicators assessed by the author in late August-early September 2017 pointed to both a much more workable relationship between Ardern and Peters and that Ardern had the right stuff to pull off another meteoric leap in her political career.
Those conclusions were verified on October 19.
Of course Labour and its partners will not use the word "radical" but the consequences of this era of change are likely to be very distinctive.

October 19
An historic day in New Zealand politics, the implications of which become evident looking at the astrological picture at the time Winston Peters delivered the decision made by NZ First.
The chart below at 7pm indicates the energy at that time [carrying through the energy of the recent past - the gestation phase -and the significant themes embedded in that time and therefore unfolding ahead - and so functions just like a personal birth chart which captures the prebirth, birth moment and lifetime.
The next birth moment will of course be captured in the time of the formal formation of the government.
- At the top of the chart is the political sign Capricorn. The highest planet -which is an indicator of transformation, regeneration, renewal -is Pluto
- the luminaries and two planets sit in the sector indicating relationships/partnerships/marriage
- The sun and moon [yang and yin] are moving towards conjunction = a New Moon
- a New Moon is literally a new beginning, a new cycle
- Uranus opposes the Sun = the need to balance out the need for both shared and separate self expressions = the give and take of negotiation
- Neptune links to Uranus and the Sun = compassionate, humanitarian themes are significant
- Mars in Virgo = a strong work ethic with humanitarian goals [link to Chiron in Pisces]
- Venus in Libra and Saturn in Sagittarius in close connection to the lunar nodes show a philosophically driven approach involving a sense of responsibility and a heart-driven response to the concerns of the community
- Mercury and Jupiter together in Scorpio indicate the intense and endless discussions that this menage `a trois has & will continue to involve
- Pluto the great force for transformation provides the most significant themes: that this government has the opportunity to bring in reforms of our political system, how politics and politicians work, how politicians connect to the public at large, the political impacts on families and women in particular. The banking and financial sectors are also set for reforms under the effects of this indicator
- The radical shift encapsulated was reflected back by Winston Peters in his coalition speech: this government rejects the devastation faced by many citizens and many communities wrought by the free-market neoliberal economic model: policies agreed on will rebuild a more caring society for New Zealand

Labour arrives in government with the most ambitious programme of reform since its much-maligned “Rogernomics” era - see full text
