I don’t watch a lot of Fox News, though I know of people who say they can’t live without it. However, I saw a clip of Jeanine Pirro ranting about the Brett Kavanaugh mess the other day and I said to myself, “That woman has got some serious Mars issues.” I ran a partial horoscope for Pirro (without a time of birth) and, sure enough, she has Mars in a close conjunction with her Sun. (Click on Jeanine Pirro to see the chart.)
That got me to thinking, so I did partial horoscope of another Fox News personality: Sean Hannity. Hannity is known for his vocal defense of, and close relationship with President Trump. (It has been reported that they talk on the phone every day.) Hannity’s Sun is in Capricorn and it is also in a close conjunction with Mars. (Click on Sean Hannity to see the chart.)
Sensing a trend, I searched my memory for other well-known conservative commentators. Ann Coulter’s name immediately came to mind. Coulter had made a career out of bashing the left in books and various other media. Again, we have no time of birth for Coulter, but a partial chart (click on Ann Coulter to see the horoscope) shows us that she too had the Sun conjunct Mars.
After a long period of retrograde, (apparent backward motion as seen from Earth) Saturn is moving forward again. That means that it will soon be entering the Second House of the Sibly USA chart. (Click here to see the chart.) The Second House is associated with money and resources and the movement of restrictive, “let-get-real” Saturn into that sector has a lot of astrologers worried.
This concern is exacerbated by the fact that Saturn is in Capricorn, the sign it rules, giving it extra authority, and adding to its restrictive tendencies. To make matters worse, Pluto is already in the Sibly Second. Having two malefic planets is the same house is never a good thing and having them in the sector that rules you pocketbook is particularly nerve-wracking.
I have been remiss. I’ve been looking at the partial horoscope of Paul Manafort for a while now and focusing on the transiting aspects. I never considered his secondary progressed chart. I don’t often look at secondary progressions for horoscopes without a time of birth because the position of the secondary progressed Moon, a primary factor, can’t be known. However, when I read of about Manafort’s plea agreement I decided to take a peek, and all I can say now is, “Bingo!”
When I was just looking at the current transits for Paul Manafort, all I could see was the movement of transiting Mars into a sextile aspect with his natal Mercury. It is also quincunx his natal Saturn. These are aspects indicative of a let’s-get-serious mood, but they lack the power that I would have expected to see considering the importance of the deal Manafort struck today.
The looming probability that Donald Trump’s second Supreme Court pick, Brett Kavanaugh, will be confirmed sometime during the next two weeks has got me thinking about his horoscope. We don’t have a time of birth for Kavanaugh, of course, but we can do a chart for noon on his date of birth. (Click on Brett Kavanaugh to see the chart.)
Kavanaugh is an Aquarius by Sun sign. I’ve heard it said that Aquarians tend to be liberals, but there are many prominent examples of staunchly conservative Sun sign Aquarian (Ronald Reagan, Paul Ryan and Sarah Palin.) What unites Aquarius people is not their politics. It is their firm and unbending devotion to their ideals and principles and their tendency to view the world from the context of those principles.
