Britain Petrol Crisis - Planetary Yogas

It was in 1970s that we saw the first worldwide oil crisis. It re surfaced more clearly in 1973, again in 1979 and again now, to hit Britain in a bad way.

However, there are differences. Then we had an almost worldwide crisis whereas now the focus is on Britain. Then it was short supply of oil, now it is the lack of truck drivers. Then, USA suffered the most, now it is Britain. 

1973 Crisis

1973 saw a war called Yom Kippur war between the Arab countries and Israel. Arab countries stopped the oil supply to USA, because it helped Israel in the war. At that time, Saturn was in Gemini, causing trouble to USA. Debilitated Rahu Ketu axis was hitting Gemini straight, indicating the loss inflicted by the Arab countries. Jupiter was in debility. Moreover, Neptune was in Scorpio 12th degree. It may be noted that only Scorpio, among the three watery signs, represents petrol and other oil products as it is nearer to Sagittarius which rules over the middle east.

1979 Crisis 

It was different in 1979. Iran suffered from a revolution in 1978-79 ending the Pahlavi rule and welcoming Khomeini. Despite the support of Soudi Arabia, the oil supply to USA was curtailed. Then, Saturn, Jupiter and Rahu were in Leo aspecting Neptune in Scorpio on 25th degree. Mars was in debility in a watery sign, Cancer. Ketu, signifying Saturn was looking at Gemini with its 5th aspect. So, again USA bore the brunt of oil crisis.

2021 Britain Oil Crisis

Unlike earlier, now the crisis is felt only by Britain. Reasons?

1. Exit of Britain from EU (Brexit) resulted in about 2 lakh workers, including 2000 truck drivers leaving Britain. Lack of truck drivers is the cause of present oil crisis in Britain.

2. Covid - 19 is another reason. The old generation drivers are getting retired while the new batch is awaiting licenses which is delayed badly due to Covid-19. There are no drivers to move the oil to petrol bunks.

In the plethora of videos available on the Net, we can see cars queued up at petrol stations. There are untoward incidents at petrol selling points, sometimes assuming the form of arson. The situation has reached such a point that, Britain is contemplating to summon the help of army to control public unrest.

The Astrological fraternity knows very well that Britain is ruled by Aries. Now we have Uranus on the 19th degree of Aries indicating unrest in Britain, whereas exalted Ketu is in Scorpio. Both are in 6/8 position with each other showing trouble in Britain.

This is how planetary yogas influence human affairs across the countries and decide our fate.
