The Cancer/Taurus, politics, and projection

[Venus_Daily]

I guess this is merely an observation thread, but the trend in political extremism has me wondering. Politics have always been ugly and low-handed, but not as much as in the past decade. This is not support for either political party or president. With that being said, things seemed to have taken a nasty turn since the middle of Bush's (George Jr's) second term, and things have just gotten worse in terms of extremism and intolerance. Psychological projection is obviously a double-edged sword, we do it all the time without realizing, but I feel like the astrological symbolism behind it is lunar in essence, at least on the subject being projected onto. Our last two presidents have lunar influences at least in their constellations, Obama with Cancer and Trump with Taurus. As I stated before with the moon and its essence being subject to serial projection, could the current political extremism be tied to the lunar influence over out past two president's sun's, which was colored by other natal aspects and or angular planets?

I am not critizing anyone for doing this, but there are definitely way too many people in the majority of the US who treat Obama like a literal representation of God and Trump like the Anti-Christ. I know there are many influences skewing the political divide, but I feel like most of them can be traced back to people's projections onto the past two presidents. For instance, a lot of the bigotry and Antifa that has been going on with so-called progressivists and a lot of blatant and closet racists now worshiping Trump. People are projecting the best and worst onto these presidents, and at the same time, they're emboldened to do stupid things in the name of their newly anointed Gods. I would also like to refer back to Jim's post about Presidents and how Cancer, Taurus, and Aquarius Suns are rare sun-signs for presidents.

Maybe, I'm just being dumb.

Excellent points Venus. IMO, I see this as clear manifestations of the 7 exact Uranus-Pluto squares which have occurred in the decade of 2010. Also the Uranus-Pluto signature we had for the 2016 Capsolar which brought Trump, the Great Disrupter. And now in the 2018 Capsolar with another Uranus-Pluto signature, we are seeing the Democratic Party swinging further to the left. IMO, basically we are seeing both parties being turned upside-down with Uranus-Pluto symbolism. Uranus-Pluto is kicking old school politics in the aff pertaining to both parties, and there is no greater force for drastic radical change that I know of in our planetary system than the planetary combo of Uranus-Pluto.

To add a few points... Obama wasn't just Cancer, he was Cancer-Taurus. And Bush, a Gemini-Virgo, had a Cancer stellium. These three do show that flow.

Before that... Bush's irvo Moon inherited Clinton's Virgo stellium, which connected to Bush 1's Virgo Moon. Before that, Clinton's Aries Moon linked to Reagan's Aries Moon, the flip of Carter's Libra Moon (but the Bush Virgo also interwove with Carter's Virgo Sun).

It all interweaves, and it all keeps flowing into something new.

Hmm...three presidents in a row with prominent Luna in their nature: is this the way how we are collectively (unconsciously) preparing for a female president!?

Bring it on, mass mind!

I see some more strong ‘Luna’ symbolism for the 2021 Prez election which involves some further Virgo analysis with the following:
Again we see a Uranus-Pluto Paran in the 2020 Libsolar as we saw in the 2016 Libsolar preceding the Prez election. As I predicted in 2016 good probability we could see a MAJOR UPSET with Trump being elected, I will go out on a limb and predict again, high % for a MAJOR UPSET with the Prez election in 2020. Based on what I am hearing in my Poker Club, I think it will be Bernie Sanders if he is still living. Why: I play with 7 other men my age (70) who all have Children. 5 of these men are stanch Conservatives and 6 of their Children voted for Bernie in the 2016 Dem Primary. The other two are Liberals and all of their Children voted for Bernie. Bernie is the Vegas favorite to be the Dem candidate in the 2020 Prez race.

But, there are glaring differences in these two Libsolars. The 2016 Libsolar had Sun wired into the Uranus-Pluto Paran, the male (Trump) won. In the 2020 Libsolar, we see a glaring difference with the eclipto chart. We see in the eclipto chart a partile cnj of Moon-Mercury tightly opposed Uranus across the 2020 Libsolar Horizon. This tells me IF a Woman is representing the Dem Party---high % the Woman pulls off a MAJOR UPSET.
Regardless who the Prez is in 2021, I predict high % this Prez will preside over the worst destruction the USA has ever seen in its history, based on Mars partile cnj 2021 Capsolar MC partile 90 2021 Capsolar Saturn, with t. Saturn forming a 3-4 month transiting Paran square to Capsolar Mars. What type of destruction is pure speculation.
