Pete Buttigieg is used to breaking barriers. Last year at this time he was the first openly gay and one of the youngest people ever to run for president of the United States. This year he has been confirmed by the Senate as the first openly homosexual and the youngster person to ever serve on a presidential cabinet. Buttigieg’s new job as head of the Dept. of Transportation may not be the most glamorous or public position, but it is the kind of practical challenge at which Capricorns like Buttigieg typically excel.
Early last year, before he dropped out of the race for the Democratic nomination, I wrote an article in which I proposed speculative horoscope for Pete Buttigieg. The source of the birth time for this chart is flimsy, a second hand account of something Buttigieg supposedly said at a book signing. But the chart matched well with Buttigieg’s strong showing in the Iowa caucus. Let’s see how it does with his cabinet appointment. (Click on Pete Buttigieg to see the chart.)
The controversy over the newly seated congresswoman from Georgia is somewhat reminiscent of the negative attention given some of the young and very opinionated females who joined the congress after the 2018 election. The difference is that none of those democratic congresswomen were advocating the execution of their fellow members of congress.
Of course, considering where the Republican Party is right now, adding your “amen” to a chorus calling for the murder of certain liberal politicians is not such an egregious offense. After all, it’s several steps below inciting a mob to break into the Capitol and few members of the GOP seem to have been offended by that turn of events. Still, I thought it might interesting to look at what’s happening in Greene’s horoscope right now.
It looks like I got my wish. In my analysis of the New Moon chart for Jan. 13 (Click here to see the article and the chart) I expressed hope that the trine by Venus to Mars and Uranus would drain away some of the rage represented by the conjunction of those two planets. Apparently it did. Instead of Mars and Uranus blowing things up at Joe Biden’s Inauguration, we got the peaceful transfer of power promised by Pluto’s conjunction to the Sun and Moon in the New Moon chart.
Of course, the anger is still out there. We saw it mostly in the way the Republican Party has turned on its own during this lunation cycle. Republicans who don’t believe the fantasy of election fraud and who dare blame the storming of the Capitol on Donald Trump are being censured and ostracized by the hardcore Trumpites. There is even talk of Trump forming a third party.
The obvious answer to that question would seem to be a resounding “no.” Trump still controls a large portion of the Republican Party and his endorsement are still going to sought after by ambitious politicians. Even without Twitter, he can still get the word out to his followers through various conservative “news” outlets and, barring an impeachment verdict by the Senate, Trump still is a possible candidate for the presidency in 2024 (when he will the same age as Biden is now.)
However, when I look at the aspects that are going to be hitting Donald Trump’s horoscope in 2021, I have to wonder. It isn’t just that his aspects for this year are challenging, which they are. They are also aspects that are likely to bring out those qualities of Trump’s character that made his last few weeks in office such a national embarrassment.
