Mourinho, Ronaldo, Depp – financial woes fuelled by Eclipses

   

 

Two major football figures are facing allegations of tax fraud by the Spanish prosecutors. Manchester United boss José Mourinho has been accused of defrauding Spain of €3.3m (£2.9m; $3.6m). And Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo, who played under Mourinho and shares the same agent, is accused of defrauding tax authorities to the tune of €14.7m.  There are hot denials flying in all directions.

What is interesting – astrologically speaking – is that both Mourinho and Ronaldo have the upcoming August Leo Eclipse falling in their 8th house of joint finances. The 8th often becomes the focus of attention when there are tax problems. In addition the August 7th Lunar Eclipse at 15 Aquarius will be conjunct Mourinho’s Moon Saturn and be opposition his Mars. Ronaldo also has the Lunar Eclipse conjunct his 2nd house (= personal finances) Sun in Aquarius and opposes his 8th house Moon in Leo. So a dramatic  time for both.

Actor Johnny Depp sued his ex-managers for financial mismanagement earlier this year at which point they counter-sued saying he was perfectly aware of his situation and that his profligate spending was what had caught him short. He had the February Pisces Solar Eclipse in his 8th opposition his Pluto Mars; and this August will see his 7th house Saturn in Aquarius rattled by both the Lunar and Solar Eclipse.

Usually the challenge of an eclipse in the 8th is to alter the way joint responsibilities, financial and otherwise, are handled. Changing the habits of a lifetime isn’t easy.
