In the horoscope of John McCain. In 1987, whewas The U.S. senator his natal Jupiter has vestrong aspect - conjunction with transit Saturn,was trine transit Jupiter in Aries. Such planlocation is excellently assisting any rise!

on November 15, 2006, then announced he was seeking the 2008 Presidential nominationfrom the Republican Party onthe February 28, 2007 telecast of the Late Show With DavidLetterman . McCain officiallystarted his 2008 presidentialcampaign on April 25, 2007 inPortsmouth, New Hampshire.Should McCain win in 2008, he would be the oldest person to assume the Presidency inhistory at initial ascension to office, being 72 years old and surpassing Ronald Reagan, whowas 69 years old at his inauguration following the 1980 election.

In February 2007 when Jupiter shifted to Sagittarius and completed his cycle in thehoroscope, McCain began his election campaign. As it is understood in his horoscope Jupiteris of key influence in relation to his political career. Its on this planets cycle he managed toreach new levels of his career as a politician. 1983, 1995, and 2007 Jupiter was in Sagittarius

finishing its cycle in the horoscope of John McCain. In 1987, when he was The U.S. senatorhis natal Jupiter has very strong aspect conjunction with transit Saturn, and was trinetransit Jupiter in Aries. Such planets location is excellently assisting any rise!

Barack Obama .

His official name is Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.! The matter of Mystery of the Name calls toknow that leaders named Hussein represent a bad sign to the USA, in my opinion, afterSaddam execution and USA invasion to Iraq that will not be good for America.

His conception time falls on early November 1960, the period of presidential election which was won by John Kennedy killedsubsequently in Dallas! Another bad sign for America. It isnot worth saying about his ethnical origin, probably, butthere are true black pages in the history of America. SoAfroAmerican president is not what America is lookingfor, I believe! Many USA citizens are unfriendly to AfroAmericans even nowadays; notwithstanding the OprahWinfrey Show is one of the most popular talk show on TV.

One should beware of the possibility of social split causedby ethnicity question.

a) He started his career in 1983. Obama graduated with aB.A. from Columbia in 1983 and then worked atBusiness International Corporation and New York Public Interest Research Groupbefore moving to Chicago in 1985 to take a job as a community organizer.

b) Next phase of his ascending was in 1996 when he was elected to the Senate of Illinois.c) In February 2007, standing before the Old State Capitol building in Springfield,

Illinois, Obama announced his candidacy for President of the United States in the2008 U.S. presidential election.

At that, all three dates were determined by Jupiter transiting by Sagittarius and his shiftingto Capricorn. That is, all major political and professional changes in his life were influenced

DemocratsCreating a Jacksonian Party: 1824 . The party's elected presidents were Thomas Jefferson(1800 and 1804), James Madison(1808 and 1812), and JamesMonroe (1816 and 1820). Theparty soon dominated Congressand most state governmentsoutside of New England. By1820, the Federalists were nolonger acting as a national party;there was little to hold theDemocraticRepublican Party together. William H. Crawford in 1824 was the last nomineeby the Congressional nominating caucus; but the majority of the party boycotted the caucus.Henry Clay finished fourth in the election that year, behind John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, and William Crawford. Their factions became separate parties after the election, of which the Jacksonians became the basis of the present Democratic Party; the NationalRepublicans were absorbed into the Whig coalition which faded out before the AmericanCivil War. Thus in 1824 a new party headed by Andrew Jackson , who is pictured at 20 U.S.dollar bill, was established. One cant say definitely when the party was founded as no exactdate of its foundation is known. Still its quite enough for the further analysis to be aware of the principal planets positions.

Whose Horoscope Is The Coolest? Surely, a candidates path to the presidential post will be much dependent upon the

horoscope of the party, especially if there is an interaction of planets in his horoscope.However the main condition is an interaction between horoscopes of two leading partiesthat propose candidates to the post of the head of the country, as well as interaction of planets at the specific time moment! Its the positions of the planets during and at thebeginning of election campaign relative to horoscope of each party will determine electionreturns. As a rule, the horoscopes of candidates have quite a little influence and only rarelydo they have great impact upon the electioncampaign outcome.One should absolutely admit, that the horoscopeof Republican Party is much more powerful andthats the historical fact. Since partiesfoundation time there were 12 democratic and 18republican presidents. The republicans are also inthe lead in the amount of years spent in theWhite House. Besides, the Republican Partyexceeds in the duration of unbroken ruling of thecountry!Certainly, one of the main influences in horoscope is the interaction between two planets of Power Jupiter and Saturn. Almost everything depends on their position! Horoscope of the

Republican Party has Jupiter in Capricorn and Saturn in Taurus, and they are trine to eachother this is the very strong positive aspect, which intensifies the party influence and laysground for future development. And quite the contrary, in the Democratic Party horoscope Jupiter is in Cancer and Saturn is in Taurus, they dont interact actively, and at the sametime Jupiter in Cancer is of much lower political status than Jupiter in Capricorn in the

horoscope of Republican Party. For instance, the importance of these planets can be verifiedby an interesting historical fact. There was the split in the Republican Party in 1872 and 1911,when transit Jupiter and Saturn opposed natal Jupiter in 1872 and Saturn in 1911. To say it inother way, these planets were weakened thus placing the political future in danger! It is theposition of these planets on ecliptics that success of either party will depend upon. Still somefactors exist that can by their power override the positive influence of these planets anddecide not only party and its leaders fates but also determine the destiny of the wholecountry!

The Republicans were in controlover the White house sinceLincolns election in 1860 anduntil 1884 when democrats rewon election taking to theWhite House Grover Clevelandin 1884.1860 1861 it was a crucial year in the history of Republican Party. From the broadperspective its from there, started their great political leadership in the USA. The event wasbrought about by the transit Jupiter/Saturn conjunction in Virgo, which also were trinenatal Jupiter and Saturn! Such a strong position gave start to the development of a newparty. Due to such lucky beginning the elections in 1864, 1868, 1872, 1876, and 1880 alsoresulted in victories of the republicans.In 1884 transit Jupiter and Saturn moved opposing to the natal Jupiter in the RepublicanParty horoscope and that determined the republicans weak position in 1884 election. Quitethe contrary, the status of Democrats were gaining momentum. In the partys horoscope the

natal Jupiter joined transit Jupiter, and later Saturn. That is why the presidential election1884 was won by the Democrats!In 1888 1889 Benjamin Harrison had won in the election campaign and republicans cameback to the White House. This was caused by the Jupiter transiting natal Jupiter inRepublican Party horoscope. And vice versa, Jupiter opposed natal Jupiter in the horoscopeof the Democratic Party.How did the Republicans manage to win in 2000? The answer is the conjunction of transit Jupiter and Saturn in Taurus in trine aspect to natal Jupiter in Capricorn in the RepublicanParty horoscope and in conjunction with natal Saturn in Taurus.

Partys Unfortunate Transits There are meaningful planetaspects in the charts of bothparties, they influence cardinallypartys fate and determineseither its domination in politicsor its defeat! So negative or positive aspects of these planets, when in transit, bring aboutrespective results.

Hoover's popularity was falling as voters felt he was unwilling or unable to do what wasneeded.1932 is universally considered to be a realigning election. Roosevelt and the Democratic ticketwon a sweeping victory over Hoover and the Republicans, extending their control over theU.S. House and gaining control of the U.S. Senate. Forty years of Republican hegemonycame to an end, and sixty years of Democratic hegemony was introduced. The vote forDemocratic Presidential Electors was nearly 8 million over that for Smith Electors in 1928,an increase of 52%. Hoover's popular vote was reduced by 26% from his result in 1928. Inaddition, the vote for most minor parties rose dramatically: increases of 230% for theSocialist Party (Norman Thomas's highest raw vote total of his campaigns); an increase of 112% for the Communist Party; an increase of 305% for the Prohibition Party; and an increaseof 57% for the Socialist Labor Party. An adverse transit tausquare of Saturn, Uranus andPluto commenced since 1929 and lasted until 1933 in the Republican Party horoscope.This resulted in ending of republicans domination due to historically negative position of the planets: transit Saturn, Uranus, Pluto, when they formed tausquare. Why was it?Because in the Republican Party Natal they locate in the same sign, namely in conjunction,thus becoming the major driving power for development process of the party itself. Whenthese planets form negative aspects the party is not a success and vice versa!This was the biggest blow the republicans got since the partys foundation date.

Since 1896 till 1912 the democrats were off power, republicans wonelections four times. That was the result of negative aspects in the

horoscope of the Democratic Party.

Such event could happen because of the negative position of transit Neptune and Uranus opposing each other at that period!

Why are exactly these planets to blame? The Democratic Partyhas in its horoscope conjunction of Neptune and Uranus inCapricorn, but in opposition to Jupiter. This is a negative aspectthat weakens their position. The conjunction of Neptune andUranus in the natal chart is a nucleus that forms development of thestructure itself. When these planets start to resonate negatively in transit that results insignificant changes in the partys overall activity. During 18961912 transit Neptune andUranus were in opposition. Why had the democrats lost 1952 presidential election and wereunable to win in elections 1956? During the election in 1952 Neptune, Uranus and Jupiterformed one of the most adverse configurations tausquare, and more over, they werelocating in the same cross where the natal opposition of Neptune/Uranus conjunction to Jupiter was. In other words, these planets were in negative aspects to their own natalpositions!Impeachment against Andrew Johnson in 1868 and Richard Nixon in 1974! Two presidentswere subjected to impeachment proceedings and lost their presidential posts by reason of negative positions of transit Pluto and Saturn. The aspect manifests itself quite actively.Why had the democrats lost power and majority of places as in the Senate having lostpresidential post in 18601861 as well? The reason was the tausquare of key planets:Neptune, Uranus and Jupiter in transit.

Positive Impacts

And vice versa, when these planets are in positive resonance then the party is doing well!

It is considered the last turn of Venus and as doesnt turn twice a year like other planets her thas great impact on the situation. Thats whyinfluence is so important!

1947 1949 The conjunction of Pluto and Saturn in Lion strengthened the republicansposition and the party took the majority of places in both chambers of the Parliament, inSenate and in the House of Representatives.

19801992 the epoch of Reagan and Bush Senior. That was very important period in thedevelopment of policy of the Republican Party. The United States presidential election of1980 featured a contest between incumbent Democrat Jimmy Carter and his Republicanopponent, Ronald Reagan, along with third party candidates, the independent John B.Anderson and Libertarian EdClark. Reagan, aided by the Iranhostage crisis and a worseningeconomy at home, won theelection by a wide margin.

Through the 1970s, the United States underwent a wrenching period of low economicgrowth, high inflation and interest rates, and intermittent energy crises. Added to this was a

sense of malaise that in both foreign and domestic affairs the nation was headed downward.By the beginning of the election season, the prolonged Iran hostage crisis had sharpenedpublic perceptions of a national crisis.

Similar to how Herbert Hoover had been blamed for the Great Depression in 1932, JimmyCarter was blamed for most of the nation's woes, especially the Iran hostage crisis, in whichthe followers of the Ayatollah Khomeni publicly humiliated the US by burning Americanflags and chanting antiAmerican slogans, parading the captured American hostages inpublic, and burning effigies of President Carter. Many Americans saw Carter as an ineptleader who had failed to solve the worsening economic problems at home, and had made theUS look weak abroad. Carter, after defeating Ted Kennedy for the Democratic nomination,attacked Reagan as a dangerous rightwing radical. For his part, Reagan, the charismaticformer Governor of California, repeatedly ridiculed Carter, and won a decisive victory; inthe simultaneous Congressional elections, Republicans won control of the United StatesSenate for the first time in 28 years. This win marked the beginning of the "ReaganRevolution." Reagans advent to power was associated with the positive aspect of transitSaturn with transiting Pluto and Uranus at that period. At first, Saturn was moving to andjoined Pluto till 1985, and next, it was coming towards and was in conjunction with Uranussince 1985 till 1991. From 1992 when it moved to Aquarius and formed square aspect to Pluto,

the democrats came to power in the White House!

Bill Clintons era has started since 1992 as the two planets Uranus and Neptune endedtheir cycles in Capricorn in the Democratic Party horoscope, and at the same time they hadstrong positive aspect trigon with transit Jupiter from Virgo.

4 Presidential Terms Running How have the Democrats managed to win four presidential terms for Franklin D. Rooseveltrepeatedly? That was the result of prolonged trine of Uranus/Neptune transiting each other

and their own position in Natal in Capricorn as well. Very strong influence!

Lets go back to election question. Last planet tuwas exactly in Virgo, August 2007, when the elrace was at its height! This also evidences republicans will lose forthcoming presidential eBut Im sure it is important to note that this veryaspect in the horoscope of John McCain will bemost influential for election outcome. Its like antvaccine for 2008 elections. Take notice that heabout to die in 1967 during aircraft carrier accidenhad survived in captivity when Venus was in Virgmeans this aspect of his Venus creates a saving effhis fate. So we can conclude that in hard contest gain a victory with a small preponderance of votes

Powerful Leader Why did the Republicans lose election in 1932? Franklin D. Roosevelts accession to powerwas supported not only by the strong aspects in the Democratic Party horoscope and bystrengthening of negative configurations in the horoscope of Republicans, but was the resultof the very powerful horoscope of the leader himself! Franklin D. Roosevelt has strongenough conjunction of planets of Power in his horoscope Pluto, Jupiter, Saturn joinedtogether in Taurus. When by the time of election in 1932 these planets made trigons with Jupiter and Saturn transitingVirgo and Capricornrespectively, it was themoment when he came topower. The most ambitiousprojects can be implementeddue to such strong position of the planets. Still powerfulhoroscopes are rare so this ruledoesnt always lead to adesirable result and one cantbase estimate of the partyssuccess at the election usingthe horoscope of its leaderonly!

Fatal Venus Influence In the history of the Republican Party there were periods when at elections the democratic

leaders unexpectedly broke off the republicans presidents ruling and dramatically changedthe Countrys growth policy. The Republicans horoscope has in its structure the mostvulnerable layout of planets of Power and interaction between them. Take notice that in thehoroscope of Republicans there is Jupiter in Capricorn, he is ruled by Saturn, and Saturn isin Taurus ruled by Venus. Thus it is a function of Venus to determine the whole perspectiveof party progress, as she rules both Jupiter and Saturn! On the one hand this is for the goodcause it forms centre of energy allowing to accumulate strength and stay in power for long,but on the other hand it makes party very vulnerable during critical years.That happened in 1912 election which was won by Woodrow Wilson, in 1960, when John F.Kennedy won, in 1976 with James E. Carter and in 1992 when Bill Clinton entered the WhiteHouse. Such situation was caused by Venus turning around in Virgo and opposing natalVenus in Pisces in the horoscope of Republican Party a year before election! It is consideredthe last turn of Venus and as she doesnt turn twice a year like other planets her turning hasgreat impact on the situation. Thats why her influence is so important!The roles of candidates to the presidential post are also very significant in this story of FatalVenus. In the birth charts of republican candidates Venus was in an unstable position shewas turning and most often in adverse aspect to Saturn! Because of this the negative domainof events was created, weakening the position of the republicans as a result.

What is more interesting that RichardNixon has Venus in Pisces in his horoscope just the way she is in horoscope of theRepublican party itself, and shes squaring Saturn another unlucky aspect.

Venus Influence in 2008 election

John McCain has in his horoscope Venus in Virgo opposing Saturn, and besides, precisely ayear earlier before his birthday, August 1935, she was turning around Virgo! The Venus

influence is evident through one interesting fact of his biography. July 29, 1967 aircraft carrier accident! Venus was turning inVirgo! By then a Lieutenant Commander, McCain was againalmost killed in action on July 29, 1967 while serving on Forrestal , operating at Yankee Station in the Gulf of Tonkin. The crew was preparing to launch attacks,when a Zuni rocket from an F4 Phantom was accidentallyfired across the carrier's deck. The rocket struckMcCain's A4E Skyhawk as the jet was preparing forlaunch. The impact ruptured the Skyhawk's fueltank, which ignited the fuel and knocked two bombsloose. McCain escaped from his jet by climbing out of the cockpit, working himself to the nose of the jet,and jumping off its refueling probe onto theburning deck of the aircraft carrier. Ninety seconds afterthe impact, one of the bombs exploded underneath hisairplane. McCain was struck in the legs and chest by shrapnel. Theensuing fire killed 132 sailors, injured 62 others, destroyed at least 20 aircraft, and took 24hours to control.

Venus was in Virgo also at the time he was captured.Prisoner of War On October 26, 1967, McCain was flying as part of a 20plane attack against a thermal powerplant in central Hanoi, a heavily defended target area that had previously been offlimits toU.S. raids. McCain's A4 Sky hawk was shot down by a Sovietmade SA2 antiaircraftmissile while pulling up after dropping its bombs. McCain fractured both arms and a leg inbeing hit and ejecting from his plane. He nearly drowned after he parachuted into Truc BachLake in Hanoi. After he regained consciousness, a mob gathered around, spat on him, kickedhim, and stripped him off his clothes. Others crushed his shoulder with the butt of a rifleand hurt him in his left foot and abdominal area; he was then transported to Hanoi's mainHoa Loa Prison, nicknamed the "Hanoi Hilton" by American POWs. Although McCainwas badly wounded, his captors refused to give him medical care unless he gave themmilitary information; they beat and interrogated him, but McCain only offered his name,
