Forecasts for the FIFA Club World Cup will continue later in the week but, for now, over to the first day of the Women’s Euro 2025 where Switzerland do battle with Norway in their opening match of the tournament.
Please note: All contest charts are cast for BST, hence the different date and time from that locally advertised.
The local kick off time for this match at St Jakob-Park in Basel is 9pm.
Although Switzerland have the home advantage, the pundits consider Norway to be the stronger side.
As favourites, Norway are signified by Saturn (lord of the 1st house). Their co-significator, Mars, already has a role as dispositor of the Part of Fortune which takes precedence.
The 7th and 4th house (and their rulers) represent Switzerland: Here, the 7th house is ruled by the Moon, who already has a role describing the events of the match. The Moon’s dispositor is Venus, who also rules the 4th house, making her the ideal significator for Switzerland.
So, unusually, both teams have just one planet to represent them: Saturn for Norway and Venus for Switzerland.
The antiscion of Venus (at 02 Leo 03, for Switzerland) opposes a retrograde Pluto. Pluto tends to reserve his malice for the favourites so, if Switzerland are truly the underdogs, they should have little to fear.
Saturn (for favourites Norway) applies to conjunct the Part of Fortune. This powerful testimony would award victory to Norway, but Neptune intercedes between them, preventing the aspect: Norway may have victory in their grasp, but Neptune has it in his power to deny them the win, if the mood takes him.
Overall, this is an interesting chart, in that both teams have difficult planets to contend with. The favourites should have the edge, but if Neptune is in the mood for mischief, unexpected outcomes are possible.
