Obama Lunar Return Observations.
We witness how George W. Bush in his last four years of office led the Republican Party from a most popular Party among the People of the Land to a very un-popular Party with Democrats winning majorities in the House & Senate and subsequently with Obama winning the White House. It now appears the reverse is happening with many Polls indicating the Democrats are going to loose many House & Senate seats. The People of the Land are very restless and {nassed} off—it doesn’t matter which Party holds the seats of power.
Obama’s preceding Lunar Return before the stunning Senate seat loss in MA-- reveals some striking angular symbolism with several partile aspects. Applying the same guidelines from Jim’s book, ‘Interpreting Solar Returns’ to Lunar Returns-- reveals to the astrologer a very dynamic Lunar Return for Obama on Dec. 29th 2009. Quoting again from Jim’s book:
“It is when angularity and aspect partility coincide that outstanding incidents are most likely to come about.”
Looking at Obama’s Dec. 29th 2009 SLR we immediately see a very prominent SLR Mars. Mars is dead-on the MC and Stationary in motion. Mars is in Fall in the constellation of Cancer. Mars receives partile malefic aspects from Saturn (45 degrees) & Pluto (135 degrees). This is a downright nasty Lunar Return foretelling a very high probability for an ‘outstanding incident’.
Other notable partile aspects. Moon is partile 120 Saturn. Saturn is partile 90 Venus & Pluto and partile 45 MC.
Jim’s auxiliary angles are ‘accented’ with partile planetary action. Neptune is partile 90 the East Point & partile 120 the Vertex. Uranus is tight 90 the Vertex and partile 120 the Eastpoint. This Lunar Return absolutely exhibits text book teaching from Jim’s book ‘Interpreting Solar Returns’ and perfectly timed the month for an ‘outstanding incident’.
*Note: If this SLR is not located to Obama’s residence in Washington DC—the potency and keynote of angular MC Mars is absent. MC symbolizes much to do with career goals & objectives. The MA election results slammed the door shut, at least temporary, on Obama’s main Heath Reform goals & objectives.
Since the MA election results, there has been a frenzy of media material speculating that Obama is leading his Party over a cliff with possible large losses in this Nov. 2nd Mid-Term Elections. Let’s again climb aboard our SoLunars Time Machine, better armed with this ‘outstanding incident’ of the MA election result (possible trend setter), and see if the teaching language of Jim’s SoLunars methodologies helps us gleam the future pertaining to Obama’s Presidency. Looking at Obama’s SLR (Oct 25th 2010), preceding the Nov. 2nd 2010 Mid-Term Elections, our eyes immediately see an angular hit (Ascendant) of Neptune—mundo as well! Obama’s angular Neptune is afflicted by the two malefics—Mars (tight 90) & a partile 135 to Saturn. Although this SLR does not feature as many partile aspects as his Dec. 29th 2009 SLR, Jim’s book teaches:
“It is when angularity and aspect partility coincide that outstanding incidents are most likely to come about.”
Neptune is angular and receives a partile 135 from Saturn. Let’s see what Bradley’s words from his book Solar and Lunar Returns state from a geo-political and mental frame of mind standpoint for Saturn-Neptune symbolism:
“A real throne-toppler, this. Among its paramount keywords is “removal,” for Saturn-Neptune surely takes first prize for forcing resignations, abdications, exiles, deportations, and firings from jobs. This combination, in the foreground, more commonly is parasitic in effect…It saps the body of its “animal heat,” the emotions of their esthetic ardor, and the mind of its quick-wittedness. The native may feel that kind of fatigue which is the forerunner of nervous breakdowns. He becomes petty in his ways of thinking by constant suspicious and jealousies, and frequently may even voice such wishes as that his enemies may die. Saturn-Neptune is a key-producer of neurotic symptoms. An effective keyword is “worry”; the native is wont to “fear the worst…”
This same Saturn-Neptune symbolism was one of the signatures with Bill Clinton’s 1998 Solar Return. Clinton was brought up for impeachment hearings but these hearings was dropped without the ‘removal’ consequences. Remember this Saturn-Neptune Lunar Return theme is for only a 27 Lunar Month period, not for a long period of time such as the case with a Solar Return; but, this Lunar Return definitely speaks loudly of possible large losses in the House & Senate. Another interesting observation is Obama has the same angular ‘theme-setter’ signature on his 2010 Solar Return as his 2009 Solar Return, transiting Mercury-Natal Pluto occupies the MC on his 2010 Solar Return, where this same ‘theme-setter’ occupied his Solar Ascendant on his 2009 Solar Return. Again quoting Bradley’s words:
“Mercury-Pluto: Circumstances cause great nervous tension. The native may find himself backed up against the wall of convention or written law, and must “fight his way out” of his predicament. Crisis arise which tax his patience and force him to “face the music…” We can clearly see where this same symbolism in his 2009 Solar Return backed him into a corner with the people of the land pertaining to the MA election results. Obama’s 2010 Solar Return with the Mercury-Pluto on the MC may be signaling he finds himself in big trouble with his own Party. TIME will tell!
Another interesting feature with Obama’s Oct. 25th 2010 Lunar Return is his angular Neptune partile opposes his Natal Uranus. Obama Natal Uranus is the main signature symbolizing the changes he wanted to bring to the USA, which for now is being rejected by voting People of the Land. Neptune symbolizes a-lot to do with Idealism and this angular transiting Lunar Neptune opposing his Natal Uranus may have something to do with voting people putting the final nail in the coffin of his Idealistic (Neptune) Changes (Uranus). If the economy (the biggest issue) continues to worsen in this ‘Great Recession’, Obama will probably be in big trouble with the results of the Mid-Term Elections.
*Again note without relocating Obama to his Residence in Washington DC, the astrologer losses the important angular Neptune symbolism in his Oct 25th 2010 Lunar Return.
