Brazil are odds on favourites, and are represented by Mars, (lord 1) and the Sun (lord 10).
Rivals Norway have Venus (lord 7) and Saturn (lord 4) as their significators.
Venus, for Norway, applies to conjunct the 10th house cusp. This shows Brazil’s 10th house (their house of victory) under siege by Norway. At less than 2-degrees from the cusp, Venus is close enough to award Norway the match, unless contradicted by stronger testimonies.
One such testimony exists: The Moon applies to trine the Part of Fortune; a strong testimony for the favourites, Brazil.
This is a contest chart where the testimonies are equally balanced, one for each side.
In a run-of-the-mill match, this would likely result in a draw. However, at this knockout stage of the World Cup, a draw is not possible. Instead, expect a closely fought contest which will go down to the wire.
*Please Note: The aim will be to post one forecast for each day of the tournament, in advance of the match start time. All charts will be cast for BST (British Summer Time, which is 1 hour ahead of GMT/UST). Due to local time differences, the date of the contest chart may vary from the local match date. Forecasts are for astrological information and educational purposes only. Charts are set for the scheduled kickoff time. As forecasts are published ahead of the event, there is a possibility that the chart may change if the start of the match is delayed, making the published forecast invalid. In accordance with John Frawley’s system for judging contest charts, the favourites will be chosen on the basis of the bookmaker’s odds in advance of the match
