China Astrology Predictions 2018
What will happen to China when Uranus (the shock, the revolution, the new world) moves into the sign of Taurus? I am writing this on Friday 20th April 2018, and Uranus will make his historic move on Tuesday 15th May, so this is just under three weeks away now. The astrological chart set for the ‘birth’ of modern China is below.
She has Vulcano, the Moon and the North Node in Taurus, in the Second House, which rules her currency and her national (local) economy. This is also about her values. China is of course, Communist. She also has Psyche, Chiron and the South Node in Scorpio, in her Eighth House, which rules her trade agreements with the rest of the world.
When Uranus moves to Taurus (banks, Wall Street, currency, blockchain) in three weeks, China will feel the loud BANG just as every country does. And every person. Yet, she stands to gain economically in 2018.
China and her Vulcano, Moon, North Node in Taurus
If you can picture the Chinese lanterns below as asteroids, planets and Nodes – that is a very tight cluster, in a very big pattern, which is timed to be triggered when Uranus reaches 8 Taurus as the first in a sequence of shocks which may end Communism – as the Chinese knows it today – in the years to come. Why? Uranus will ultimately hit 22 Taurus and conjunct China’s North Node (karma) and oppose her South Node at 22 Scorpio (more karma!) You might say that the ‘bang’ of 15th May 2018 is the beginning of the end for Communism, when Uranus finally ends up in that position in her chart. Imagine all these lanterns lighting up at once – that’s what this cycle will do. In fact, Uranus was found in 1781, the year that the Enlightenment peaked. It will take years, but Communism is going.
The chart we use for China astrology predictions is based on the day that the constitution of the Republic of China entered into effect
Testing the Chinese Horoscope With the 2015 Crash
The Chinese stock market drama of 2015 began with the bursting of the stock market bubble on 12th June 2015[1] and it’s a good test of the horoscope or ‘birth’ chart above, set for 25th December 1947.
What did we see then? The same hotspots we’re seeing in 2018 and beyond.
Uranus at 19 Aries semi-sextile China’s Moon at 19 Taurus in the Second House of currency. Quincunx China’s Chiron at 20 Scorpio in the Eighth House of the economy.
Chiron at 21 Pisces sextile China’s North Node at 22 Taurus in her Second House of money, trine China’s South Node at 22 Scorpio in her Eighth House of assets and debts, and also trine China’s Chiron at 20 Scorpio in the Eighth House again.
Anything slow-moving and ‘major’ like Uranus or Chiron at 19, 20, 21, 22 is a hotspot for China.
Back on 12th June 2015, there was a shock (Uranus) and also a moment of pure experimentation (Chiron).
China’s luck is in temporarily as Jupiter (abundance, solutions, luck) does just this kind of pass, in 2018. Yet, as Uranus slowly moves from 0 Taurus through to the 19, 20, 21, 22 trigger points, some years from now, there will be a revolution right up there with Mao.
How China Gains from Jupiter in Scorpio in 2018
The shock of Uranus in Taurus from May 15th will spell big downfalls and huge losses for some. However, we also have Jupiter (abundance, solutions, breakthroughs, advantages, luck) in Scorpio, the sign which rules complex finance. China gains from that. As Jupiter conjuncts her natal Chiron at 20 Scorpio and then moves on to conjunct her South Node at 22 Scorpio and oppose her North Node at 22 Taurus, our jaws will be on the floor.
Chiron is like the music teacher you had at school who was also into the Sex Pistols, or Nirvana, or The Ramones, or The Slits, or Siouxsie and the Banshees. Chiron the centaur was actually a music teacher in the ancient world, as you can see below. We all have Chiron, the outrageous educator, somewhere in our horoscope. Chiron reveals how we teach ourselves and others what we can get away with! China’s audacity is firmly centred on her brand of Communism and her sharemarket moves.
China is going to teach the world economy a lesson it will never forget, when Jupiter conjuncts her Chiron at 20 Scorpio, shortly before passing to her South Node at 22 Scorpio. I’ll give you those dates in a moment. If they tally with your own horoscope as a Premium Member (you also have factors across 21, 22, 23 Scorpio and/or Taurus) then either directly, or at a distance, you also stand to gain, when China peaks.
Just remember. Chiron is a symbol of ‘things which should not exist, could not exist, but do exist’. He was half-man, half-horse, but he was real to the Romans. Chiron also practised herbal medicine. He was a multi-tasker with the heart of a punk. Chiron is an outsider. China will claim her outsider status in global trade when Jupiter arrives.
Chiron the music teacher with Achilles.
When Will China Leave Our Jaws on the Floor of the New York Stock Exchange?
There are so many patterns here that China is clearly poised to pull off something major. When Jupiter crosses 20, 21, 22, 23 Scorpio the Chinese chart will also ‘ignite’ in terms of the internet and tech stocks, as she was founded with Uranus at 23 Gemini in her Third House of communication. She also has Juno at 20 Capricorn in her Tenth House of world status. She has Cupido at 21 Cancer in her Fourth House of property and land. She has Saturn at 22 Leo, which rules her university/college students and young people. This is about a lot more than just jaws on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. It’s about a rebirth for China in terms of the worldwide web, her relationship with Europe and the United States and her own people.
In astrology we look for patterns which also involve other planets and asteroids, clustering around the same spot as a major player like Jupiter. So we’re looking for astrological action across 20, 21, 22, 23 Scorpio that involves more than just one big planet. This neatly brackets the last week of September, as you can see below. In the final week of September 2018, China will pull off something allegedly impossible in the global economy, to her total advantage. Her luck continues in October.
Sunday 23rd September 2018
Jupiter 20 Scorpio semi-sextile Bacchus 20 Libra
Monday 1st October 2018
Jupiter 22 Scorpio quincunx Aesculapia 22 Aries
We can allow the transit to extend into October 2018 allowing for a one-degree orb in the cycle.
The End of Communism 2023-2024
Uranus, the planet of shock, rebellion, freedom, independence and ‘the revolution’ will cross those crucial Taurus degrees in the China chart in 2023-2024 when Communism is over. Uranus will trigger both her Taurus side and her Scorpio side. It is also possible that this is when China’s climate change and other environmental crises will catch up with her. Taurus, after all, is a sign very much concerned with pasture, fields, agriculture and cattle.
This is at least five years into the future, but one look at the planets and you can see Pluto (a massive change in the balance of power) going into Aquarius, the sign which rules people power ‘across’ rather than Capricorn, which is rulership of the top people, down. That’s only possible once every 240+ years. Goodbye Me Old China.
Hi Jess, thank you for giving us so many detailed practical information about worlds politics and finances lately, I feel like the world is going to shake and turn upside down in the coming years. You mentioned whoever has planets between 20-23 Scorpio will rather gain with Jupiter’s transit in September. I got a bit concerned since I have the big teacher, Saturn on 23 Scorpio. What does my chart show you? Thank you!
Pluto at 2 Scorpio in your chart, in your Eighth House of banks, taxation, insurance, superannuation, pension – is a bigger deal. Why? Because Uranus moves to 2 Taurus in 2018/2019 and you will undoubtedly feel the bump, in the middle of May 2018, as the cycle begins. You are not alone. Billions of us have factors at 1, 2, 3 Scorpio and so this is obviously a case of the national/global picture affecting your own financial situation. Transiting Uranus opposite natal Pluto is a command to change, when you probably don’t want to. Having total control over your shopping, shares, money is central to your Pluto position, but when the revolution hits, you just have to shift. This cycle returns in early 2019 so really it’s across two years of your life. Whatever used to make money out there, may no longer make it. At the same time the field becomes wide open for the most exciting new ways of paying tax (or not paying it). That’s just one example. Try not to stay too stuck in 2017, 2016, 2015 and the old way of doing things. Look out for the new deals. There will be a ton of them. Make it your business to research what your bank does, who heads it, and how it handles its affairs.
Wow, thank you! I am not sure how will this affect me since I personaly don’t really have much money in my bank account and no real estate/shares/gold/cryptocurrencies etc.. so not much of the taxes either.
But maybe this planetary shift will open doors for me and I will take it as a fresh start. I am ok with changes, I can adapt quickly and am not the person that would hold on to the past.
This is so good! You should have a separate premium offering for astro finance!! I’ve never wanted to dabble in the stock market until reading your predictions!!
Interesting as China holds the biggest reserve of US dollars in the world. They have amassed this over a very long period. Certain economists have pointed out that all China has to do is continue to hold and build it and wait until a major crisis undermines the US dollar and it falls. This can be anything from economic to geo-political. Then all China need do is sell off their dollar reserves at a low price, flooding the market with trillions of cheap currency and driving the value of the dollar down even further. The result: the US would enter a recession that would last for an entire Saturn cycle and China would emerge as the new world superpower without a shot being fired. The ultimate Big Short in other words.
Now, that’s a brilliant analysis. Thank you very much.
Dear Jess,
GOLD as an investment in May.
Thank you again for your insights on China in the context of the forthcoming May financial crisis.
Given this scenario, does Gold provide a good hedge in May?

I think you need to hit Search and read more about Uranus, Jeremy. And have a look at the year 1781. That is when Uranus was discovered and named. It was a key year for the Industrial Revolution, but also for the French Revolution. In 1781 Jacques Necker published the tax affairs of the King and Queen. The people were revolved and eventually – the people did revolt. If you visit Versailles today it is covered in gold, and it still glitters, but from 1781 forward there was no protection for the French royal family or aristocracy, for all their wealth. The revolution was on and the people were no longer prepared to put up with unfair taxes. Now, ask yourself which world leader has consistently refused to declare his tax return – despite all his gold and gilt trimmings and trappings! It’s good to do your own research on these things. When you think about Uranus, you think about tax. It is also the reason that in 1781 the Americans threw out the British and King George III. There is another monarch dripping with gold. He was essentially sacked by a whole country.
Thanks for such a detailed information.
Hi Jessica, Thank you for a really interesting article. Concerning China gaining from when Jupiter moves into Scorpio during the last week of September 2018. Could you please provide an insight of the following horoscope factors that I have. Fortuna 21 Taurus. Sun 24 Taurus. Can I gain financially from this? And does Ops 18 Scorpio have any significance? Or does it ‘miss the boat’ entirely?!
Psyche at 1 and Ceres at 4 Taurus in your Second House of money, property, business, possessions and charity are worth watching, as Uranus will cross 1, 2, 3, 4 Taurus over the next couple of years, starting from May 2018. This will be the very first thing you experience, so look at U.S. Tariffs in general and currency in particular. Inflation, devaluation and – this is really important – tech stocks – are all associated with this cycle in terms of the history and the astrology. Have a look at what happened to AT&T all those years ago. You may see parallels.
I have my ascendant on 21° Scorpio.I’ve lived in China between 2012 and 2013 and have a sister that is still living there. How exciting!
Jupiter crossing your Ascendant at 21 Scorpio will give you an opportunity to make so much more of your profile and image, in terms of all that you earn, own or owe. It does depend on an accurate birth time, though.
Hi Jessica, Because of the all the tariff news and back and forth on China – do you think China stock market will crash starting next week or it is more likely to crash later in Sept. or Oct. 2018; as it did during 2015? Do you see them gaining because this crash occurs?
Thanks!
When we watch China and dramatic highs/lows in her market, we have to go to Scorpio and Taurus factors in her Eighth House of trade relationships, and her Second House of home economy. Uranus entering Taurus will do so with a banging door – if you are curious about this you need to know that Uranus is the planet of shock, revolution, storms, electricity, independence, freedom and liberty. In Taurus, this is about the global economy of which China is a massive part. Uranus goes through 0, 1, 2 Taurus from next week, until early November 2018. He then disappears and returns across 0-6 Taurus from March-December 2019. Watch Jupiter as well – the planet of gain, abundance, growth is now moving across Scorpio backwards and forwards, from 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13 until July then forwards across 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 until early November. Everyone needs to be sharply aware of Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio 27, 28, 29 around Halloween 2018 (easy to remember) and then back to haunt Wall Street in the first two weeks of December. Merry Christmas? Crazy Christmas. If you can see that in the China chart, then you’ll know exactly what is going to happen!
Thank you very much for the information and the knowledge behind your predictions. I have a questions on the birth chart used here. I assume the article is about the mainland China with the communist party in power, world’s second economy, not Taiwan (though some Taiwanese people think they represent China)? In mainland China people widely accepted that today’s China was born on 1st October 1949 at 3pm in Beijing . It was on that day and time, Chairman Mao announced on the Tiananmen in Beijing to the world that People’s Republic of China was founded and a huge ceremony followed. 1st October has been celebrated as the national day in mainland China ever since. I googled 25th December 1947, it was the date the nationalist party’s constitution launched. However, the nationalist party lost the civil war to the communist party and was expelled to Tainwan in 1949. So the relationship between Mainland China and Taiwan is very much like that of North Korea and South Korea – both Chinese, but under different political system and governing bodies. Not unexpectedly the 1947 constitution was abandoned after the communist party gained the governance of mainland China in 1949. So I can’t understand why using 1947 and the capital of Taiwan as the birth day and place for the world’s second economy of mainland China?
Best wishes.
It’s a good question and in fact, astrologers often work with two or three charts for a whole nation. In Great Britain for example – which has sometimes been known as the United Kingdom – we can look at the 1066 horoscope or the 1801 horoscope. There is a good case for using the China chart for 1st October, which makes her a Libra country, but the Capricorn identity suits her well (hierarchy, ambition, establishment) and in fact that chart works better for prediction. You can use either.
There is a long line of people who have forecasted the demise of the Chinese Communist Party. The irrepressible Gordon Chang comes to mind; he’s been doing it since 2001. I’m not sure if anyone really knows if and when the current regime will collapse. But when it comes, it will be swift, brutish and extremely bloody. Chinese history is littered with examples of mis-rule that have come to an abrupt end, of emperors who failed to heed sagely advice that the populace is like water. The same water that floats the emperor’s boat in calm conditions is the same water that overturns the boat when it becomes violent in a storm. China’s current leader has been likened to an emperor, after he arm twisted his Party into removing the 10 year term on serving leaders. If he is smart, he won’t be taking any boat rides in the forseeable future.
