England are favourites to win their opening game of the tournament and are represented by Jupiter (ruler of the 1st house) and Venus (ruler of the 10th house).
Serbia are signified by Mercury (lord 7th) and Mars (lord 4th).
In his book “Sports Astrology”, John Frawley states that combustion (in traditional astrology, a planet within 8.5 degrees of the Sun) is a severe affliction but is only effective within 2 degrees in contest charts. If this rule holds true, Mercury (lord 7) is free of affliction by combustion, which is good news for Serbia.
The Moon applies to trine Mercury (for Serbia) but her final aspect is a trine to Venus, which favours England.
As the Moon’s final aspect often decides the result, this is a powerful testimony for an England win. However, this will not be an easy game for them, and goals for both sides are likely.

Hi Louise
Your post regarding the England v Serbia game says the Moon applies to Mars by a trine. Do you mean an applying trine to Mercury.
Keep up the good work. Always a pleasure to read your posts.
