It seems to me that 3 of the 4 major world powers - the US, China and Russia - are all aggressively taking care of their immediate spheres of influence, their 'backyards', while the 4th, Europe, stands by wringing its hands. It represents a return to realpolitik, and a breakdown of the post war UN agreement that one country mustn't invade another. This collective breakdown and assertion of individual power is one way we can read the upcoming Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries.
Meanwhile Pluto is finishing his square to the UN Sun - its goals - and Neptune is coming up to oppose the exact Venus-Neptune conjunction in Libra. The 7th House Sun and Venus in Libra both speak of international friendship and co-operation, and that is going to have to be interpreted in a new way.
Meanwhile Saturn and Neptune are about to make their final transit across the EU Angles, which are at the end of the mutable signs. Hence the current hand-wringing. Saturn-Neptune is asking the EU whether or not it still wishes to be a world power.
