In Iraq, they hang their war criminals.  In the UK, they hang them out to dry.  Over the coming three days, there's a fiesty and fiery Sun opposite Mars in the skies, bringing the potential for a great deal of short term volatility, especially at the end of this week.  I note that both Goldsmith and Blair, the attorney general and prime minister at the time of the Iraq invasion, are giving evidence to the Iraq inquiry at the end of this week.  I also note that the Sun/Mars opposition falls exactly on top of Tony Blair's Moon at eleven degrees Aquarius.  I suspect that he will be castigated and villifed in the short term, but with his Mars on his Gemini Ascendant will talk his way out of it all, and then emigrate to the Gulf states, or Florida, anywhere he can live quietly.  Long term, his chart shows his normal evasiveness and ability to blame everyone except himself, probably why he's turning Catholic so he can absolve himself of guilt.  Short term, he's about to get trashed.  However, the chart of Lady Macbeth Cherie Blair is more indicative of challenge, it will be very interesting indeed to see where she is at the end of July.  Mind you, having said all this - I am proud to live in a country where we try and bring everyone to account for their actions and get them to justify their behaviour.  Can you see Bush, Rumsfeld or Cheney being asked to account for their actions?  No, neither can I.
