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.

Astrological Football Forecast FA Cup Final Special: Saturday 17th May 2025 Crystal Palace vs Manchester City

Manchester City are odds-on favourites to win this season’s FA Cup Final against Crystal Palace, and the contest chart for the match appears to agree:  There is only one testimony of sufficient note in this chart, the placement of Venus (lord of the 1st house, main significator of the favourites) directly on the cusp of the 7th house (the house of opponents Crystal Palace).   

Were Venus to be placed inside the 7th house, this would show favourites Manchester City languishing in the power of their rivals, Palace.  However, Venus sitting on the cusp of the 7th house shows City dominating the game, a sign that they will be the likely victors.   

The game is scheduled to kick off at 4:30pm (BST), by which time the Moon* will have just separated from an opposition with the antiscion of the Part of Fortune (at 21 Cancer 52).  This opposition aspect would have favoured the underdogs (Crystal Palace) but by the time the game begins the aspect will already be in the past, a sign that Palace have done well to get to the final, but have probably achieved as much as they can, at least for this season.   

There is only one lunar aspect of note, an applying sextile to Saturn, ruler of the 4th house. As the 4th house is the house of victory for the underdogs, this testimony would favour Crystal Palace.  However, the aspect is just outside the 5–6-degree limit considered most reliable for 90-minute football matches, suggesting that Palace might rally in the latter stages of the game, but unless the amount of extra time available is considerable, their efforts are likely to be ‘too little, too late’.   

*Please note: The Moon is also ruler of the 10th house (the house of victory for the favourites, Manchester City) but her role describing the events of the match takes precedence.

Astrological Football Forecast for the Premier League: 1st May 2025 Nottingham Forest vs Brentford

According to the pundits, Nottingham Forest have the better chance of victory.  As favourites, they are signified by Mars, ruler of the 1st house and the Sun, ruler of the 10th house (the house of victory for the favourites).   

Their rivals, Brentford, are represented by Venus (ruler of the opposing 7th house) and Saturn, lord of the 4th house (the house of victory for the underdogs).   

The Sun is placed in the 7th house, which might be expected to show Nottingham Forest’s hopes of victory in the power of their rivals. However, in contest charts, a team’s significator must be placed within 1-2 degrees to be considered worthy of note, so this testimony does not count.  

The conjunction of the benefic North Node and Saturn (lord of the 4th house, the house of victory for the underdogs) might have added an extra boost to the fortunes of Brentford, but this aspect is separating, so does not signify.    

The Moon, whose applying aspects often describe the key events of the match, makes only one aspect of significance, a sextile to the Sun.  This is favourable for the favourites.  The Moon must travel just beyond the 5-degree orb considered most reliable in a 90-minute football match, suggesting that an advantage or opportunity is likely to occur in the latter stages of the game, or possibly even in extra time, which Nottingham Forest may be able to turn to their advantage.

The only other testimony of significance is the applying opposition to the Part of Fortune from her dispositor, Jupiter.  This testimony benefits Brentford, but the aspect is also just beyond the 5-degree orb, so may not be entirely reliable. It nevertheless merits consideration.   

So, we have two strong testimonies in this chart; one from the Moon favouring Nottingham Forest, and the other involving the Part of Fortune which favours Brentford.  It seems likely that Brentford will play well, but that Nottingham Forest should be alert to an opportunity which presents itself during the latter stages of the game, which could give them the final advantage.

Astrological Football Forecast for the Premier League: 19th April 2025 Aston Villa vs Newcastle United

The first house and its ruler, Venus, represent the favourites.  Usually, they would also have the ruler of the 10th house, (the house of victory for the favourites), as their co-significator. Here, the 10th house is ruled by the Moon, who already has a key role describing the main events of the match. For this reason, the favourites only have one significator, Venus.   

Their rivals are signified by Mars, ruler of the opposing 7th house.  They also have Saturn (ruler of the 4th house, the house of victory for the underdogs) as their co-significator.   

There are two important testimonies in this contest chart, both of which indicate the underdogs will have the better game.  

Saturn applies to a close conjunction with the North Node.  This aspect greatly boosts to the fortunes of the underdogs. 

The Moon’s immediate opposition to the antiscion of the Part of Fortune (at 13 Cancer 44) is the only other aspect of note in this chart.  Once again, this favours the underdogs.   

At the time of writing, the pundits consider Aston Villa (who have the home advantage, and a strong record of home wins) to be the favourites.   

However, it is worthy of note that Newcastle are currently placed at 3rd in the table above the favourites Villa in 7th place.   The Magpies’ impressive performance in away games this season must also be taken into account.

Overall, this promises to be a finely balanced game of well-matched sides.

Some pundits have suggested the possibility of a draw.   

However, the contest chart for this match inclines more to a victory for the underdogs, very likely by a close margin.

Astrological Football Forecast for the Premier League: Monday 14th April 2025 Bournemouth vs Fulham

At the time of writing, Bournemouth are favourites to win, but Fulham’s recent form promises a close match.   

The contest chart for the match agrees, as there are testimonies which favour both teams. 

The Sun, ruler of the 10th house (representing victory for the favourites), sits directly on the cusp of the 7th house (the house of their opponents):  The favourites have potential to control the game and quash the hopes of their rivals. 

The Moon (whose aspects often show how the match will unfold) first applies to square the antiscion of the Part of Fortune (at 14 Leo 57).  Immediately afterwards, she moves to directly oppose the Part of Fortune, at 15 Taurus 03:  Both these aspects are powerful testimonies for the underdogs.   

The odds for both teams are close, but at the time of writing, Bournemouth have slightly better odds to win.  If the pundits are correct and they are truly the favourites, their best strategy is to take early control of the game (the Sun conjunct the 7th house cusp) and try to prevent Fulham from gaining any advantage.   

However, aspects from the Moon to the Part of Fortune suggest that Fulham will have the chance to score at least one goal.  If Fulham make good on this opportunity, that first goal could become a stepping stone to victory.  

Either way, this promises to be a close match, and we can expect to see some highly competitive football from both teams.
