In future a fuller astrological article about the future President of the USA will be written and published. For the time being here's a re-print of two earlier entries from this blog that are worth bringing to the fore again, since the Barack Obama hype machine is in full swing at the moment:

17th June 2008: The more things change....

.... the more they stay the same. Sometimes.

The outgoing George Bush has Mars through Afghanistan and Venus through Iran and Saudi Arabia.

The possibly-incoming Barack Obama has Mars through Iraq and Iran and Saudi Arabia and Venus through Iran.

Change? I'm not convinced they know what it means.

10th March 2008: USA Election Candidates

In this entry I want to draw attention to the area of the Zodiac at 10-14 degrees of Leo.

Barack Obama: Sun at 12 Leo
Hillary Clinton: Mars-Pluto conjunction at 14 Leo

No wonder those two are in a fight to the death......... and yet they're in the same political party: the (so-called) Democrats.

John McCain, the Republican candidate: Mars at 12 Leo.

So whichever one gets elected, there's something the same about them, and let's not mince words, Leo is not a Sign of democracy, particularly when these planets symbolising the will are placed there.

George Bush, the current president: Mercury-Pluto conjunction at 10 Leo

Bill Clinton, the former president: Pluto at 12 Leo - he actually has a Mercury-Pluto conjunction just like Bush.

The president before that, the other George Bush, doesn't have anything here in these degrees. The closest he has is Neptune at 18 Leo. And checking before him, Reagan and Carter don't have anything here or close by either - you have to go back to Gerald Ford who was president from 1974-1977 before you get anything close - Mercury at 16 Leo, but before him Nixon didn't have anything here at all.

So there's a continuation of 'aggressive' planets in this small degree area running from January 1993 and into the future for at least another 4 years.

And no matter whether a Democrat or a Republican is elected, the pattern holds over a 19 year period - that's a generation.

Looking at the USA's chart there are no planets in these degrees or even opposite or square to them. There are some interesting midpoints:

  • Mars/MC
  • Saturn/Uranus
  • Venus/Neptune
  • Jupiter/Neptune

Plenty to ponder here, about why this recurring theme is there and where it's coming from..... and where it's heading to.
