Chancellor, animal ties and horoscopes
Merz is said to have received a special gift from the leadership of the CDU/CSU faction. Jens Spahn (45) presented the Chancellor with three animal-patterned ties – according to reports, examples had dolphin, elephant and squirrel motifs. Many people have noticed in recent months that Merz likes to wear animal ties. The media even speculated about what hidden message he might be trying to convey.

This way, Merz “can always influence the parliamentary group,” Spahn said. Merz replied that his star sign is Scorpio: “If you want to know what a Scorpio is like, read the horoscope. It’s all true.” Scorpios are often seen as persistent and ambitious people. “It is clear where your weak points are. But these will definitely not be exploited,” says the Scorpio daily horoscope from NDR 1 Lower Saxony for November 11. What does this mean for Merz?
