Beatrix not only married a Nazi officer just 15 years after WWII, for which half Amsterdam protested and booed them on their wedding day, and then she conspired with her father, the prince consort, to overthrow her mother Good Queen Juliana and take over as a queen!

Claus von Amsberg never was a nazi officer. He was a regular soldier in the Wehrmacht, but was captured before ever even seeing any fighting. Not surprising, considering he wasn't even 19 years of age at the end of the war.

There also was not widespread booing and protesting in Amsterdam, apart from the so-called "provos" creating trouble.

Juliana abdicated when she was 71, mainly because her dear husband was involved in some questionable business deals. There was political pressure on her, not any pressure from Beatrix.

Daily Horoscope for May 18

Pisces

There's a clash today between the past and the present. Someone wants to dwell nostalgically on the good old days but someone else is determined to forget all that and only concentrate on the here and now. The trouble is that neither side will want to concede to the other person's point of view, leading to bad feelings and upsets. If you are one of these people, try not to be too entrenched in your own opinions.
