Astrological Football Forecast for the FIFA Club World Cup: Day 5 Seattle Sounders vs Atletico Madrid

Please note:  All contest charts are cast for BST, hence different dates and times from those locally advertised. (This match is scheduled to kick off at Lumen Field in Seattle, Washington in Atlanta at 3pm local time on 19th June 2025).

Atletico Madrid are the favourites:  They are odds-on to win against their Group B rivals, the Seattle Sounders (despite Seattle having the advantage of a home crowd).   

As favourites, Atletico Madrid are signified by Venus (lord 1).  The Moon (ruler of the 10th house, the house of victory for the favourites) already has a key role describing the events of the match, so Venus is their sole representative for this match.   

Home side Seattle are signified by Mars (lord 7) and Saturn (lord 4).   

Pluto opposes the Part of Fortune, favouring the underdogs, Seattle.  However, although this aspect is still very close, it is already separating (Pluto is retrograde) and is unlikely to have much bearing on the result of the match.

Saturn (lord 4 for Seattle) is placed very close to Neptune. Neptune has proven himself to be a ‘wild card’ in football matches.  He is known to cause upsets, but can be inconsistent in the way he works.  John Frawley notes that, like Pluto and Uranus, he seems to work against the favourites, if he is inclined to work at all.   Here Saturn applies to conjunction with Neptune, but turns retrograde before the aspect perfects (becomes exact), so may be no more relevant to the outcome than Pluto’s opposition with the Part of Fortune. However, Neptune may yet cast an air of mystery and unpredictability over the match.

According to the bookies, Atletico Madrid are the likely winners, but Neptune and Pluto could bring a few surprises, if they feel so inclined.

Astrological Football Forecast for the FIFA Club World Cup: Day 4 Manchester City vs Wydad AC

Please note:  All contest charts are cast for BST, hence different dates and times from those locally advertised. (This match is scheduled to kick off at Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA at 12:00pm ET) on 18th June 2025) 

Manchester City are odds-on favourites to win this Group G match against Wydad AC (or Wydad Casablanca).  As the favourites, they are signified by Mercury (ruler of the 1st and 10th houses). 

The ruler of the opposing 7th and 4th houses, Jupiter, represents their opponents Wydad AC. 

The placement of the Part of Fortune (in the 10th house, the house of victory for the favourites) follows the progress of the Moon’s phases and is therefore the same every lunar month.  For this reason, the proximity of the Part of Fortune to the 10th house cusp does not signify.   

More significant is the placement of the antiscion of Mercury which, as ruler of the 1st and 10th house, represents the favourites.  At 12 Gemini 05, the antiscion of Mercury is conjunct the 10th house cusp, a strong testimony in favour of the favourites.   

In the absence of any other testimonies, this chart looks highly favourable for Manchester City.

Astrological Football Forecast for the FIFA Club World Cup: Day 3 River Plate vs Urawa Red Diamonds

Please note:  All contest charts are cast for BST, hence a different date and time from that locally advertised.   

The local date, time and place for this match is:  Lumen Field, Seattle at 12pm (PT) on 17th June 2025.  

In this Group E match, River Plate are odds-on favourites to win against opponents Urawa Red Diamonds.   

River Plate are signified by Mercury, lord of the 1st and 10th houses. Mercury is also dispositor of the Part of Fortune, but his role as lord of the 1st house takes precedence.  

Urawa Red Diamonds are represented by Jupiter, lord of the 7th and 4th houses.   

The Moon applying to conjunct the 7th house cusp is a strong testimony for Urawa Red Diamonds, whilst the Moon’s only other aspect (over the 5-degree orb considered most reliable for 90-degree football matches) is a sextile to Mercury, main significator of the favourites, River Plate.   

With two very strong but conflicting testimonies, one for each team, a draw cannot be ruled out.  If this is not the case, the victory is likely to go to the team favoured by the Moon’s final aspect (her sextile to Mercury) which are the favourites, River Plate.

Astrological Football Forecast for the FIFA Club World Cup: Day 2 Chelsea vs Los Angeles FC

Please note:  All contest charts are cast for BST, hence different dates and times from those locally advertised (This match is locally scheduled to kick off at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Atlanta, Georgia at 3:00pm (ET) on 14th June 2025) 

The favourite team in this match is a matter of dispute.  The U.K. bookies have Chelsea as favourites to win over Los Angeles, but the odds suggest the match is likely to be close.   

The Moon (ruler of the 10th house, the house of victory for the favourites) already has a role describing the flow of events, so Chelsea have just one significator for this match, Venus (the ruler of the 1st house).

Los Angeles are represented by Mars (ruler of the 7th house) and Saturn (ruler of the 4th house, the house of victory for the underdogs).   

The antiscion of the Part of Fortune (at 11 Cancer 59) is conjunct the 10th house cusp: This favours the favourites.  Ideally the aspect would be closer (within 2 degrees), but in the absence of any stronger testimonies, this could prove conclusive.   

If Chelsea truly are the favourites (as the pundits suggest), then it seems likely they will make a good start to the tournament.

Astrological Football Forecast for the FIFA Club World Cup: Day 1 Al Ahly FC vs Inter Miami CF

Please note:  All contest charts are cast for BST, hence different dates and times from those locally advertised (This match is locally scheduled to kick off at the Hard Rock Stadium, Miami at 8pm (ET) on 14th June 2025)

This is the tournament’s opening match, and expectations for both teams are running high.  Hosts Inter Miami CF boast a strong side and are hotly tipped to win.   

As favourites, Inter Miami are represented by the ruler of the 1st house (Jupiter) and the ruler of the 10th house (the house of victory for the favourites), Venus.   

Rivals Al Ahly are signified by Mercury (ruler of the opposing 7th house) and Mars (ruler of the 4th house).   

The Moon seems to agree with the pundits:  Her only aspect (over the 5-degree orb considered most effective in 90-minute football matches) is a sextile to Venus, ruler of the 10th house, favouring the favourites.   

Jupiter (for Inter Milan) is captured in the 7th house of their rivals, Al Ahly, but is in a different sign from that on the cusp (Gemini), so this has no relevance to the outcome.  For the same reason (being in a different sign to the Gemini house cusp), Jupiter is not afflicted by combustion with the Sun.   

However, the antiscion of the Sun (at 05 Cancer 51) still has significant role:  With the Part of Fortune in Leo, the Sun is her dispositor.  Jupiter therefore applies to conjunct the dispositor of the Part of Fortune, which is another boon for the favourites.   

Two testimonies favouring the favourites suggest a likely win for Inter Milan.  However, Al Ahly FC are a strong side who have won the CAF Champions League on several occasions:  Even with the stars (and terrestrial stars like Lionel Messi) on their side, Inter Milan would be unwise to underestimate them.
