Jumping in very late to this thread, I am wondering what the astrology for Trump and Biden is for the inauguration? It is on 1/20/2025 (I believe it is at 12pm in Washington DC)
So far as I've looked, Trump looks like he's kind of the world and Biden looks like he's not there. At least, that's how comparison to the inauguration chart itself looks. That's not the whole story, but it's where the story starts.
The most obvious think is that Moon for inauguration is at 23°25' Virgo (square Mercury at 23°10' Sagittarius). Trump's natal Jupiter is 23°28' Virgo.
It's not all peaches and cream for him though, since Mars at 29°18' Gemini is 0°32' from conjunct his Saturn.
Biden's one clear transit is a good one, with t Jupiter 16°33' Taurus conjunct his Saturn (0°32') and octile his Jupiter (0°21'). His natal Jupiter-Saturn octile is one of his important political skills aspects. However, these transits don't show outright eminence: Jupiter to Saturn in particular is more of a reprieve where old guilts are assuaged and things somehow turn out better than one feared.
However, the lunar returns give a different picture:
Trump's December 29 SLR may not be useful since, even if he wins, we don't know when he'll move to Washington; i.e., we don't know where he will be when the SLR sets up. If calculated for DC, it shows him engaged in combat with transiting Mars 0°05' from Descendant and natal Mars 0°42' from square MC. It's closest foreground aspects are Venus square Uranus and Mars opposite Pluto - he's willing to sacrifice any relationship to blow away the landscape. His natal Mars and Pluto are also involved with these aspects. Uranus aspects his Venus-Saturn. But this chart may not be valid.
His January 11 Demi-SLR marks a time he's more likely to be in DC if he won, but still might not be. It's a terrible chart for him, with Saturn 1°23' from Ascendant in 2° mundane square with Moon 053' from IC (and natal Moon 0°07' off MC). This is the actual lunar under which inauguration would occur and (from these aspects and others like Saturn and Neptune square his Sun) is about as bad as it gets. If he were in power, he looks completely toppled. He might be somewhere else on January 11 when this sets up, which lightens the orbs on these, but he isn't going to get a
good chart anywhere.
On January 25, he has a new SLR which, if he's in Washington, is mostly marked by transiting Sun opposite natal Pluto closely angular.
Biden already lives in Washington, of course. His January 8 SLR is a pretty happy chart. Transiting Venus is 0°34' from Descendant and natal Venus 0°29' from IC (and his Sun 1°36' from IC) - meaning they are in 1°02' square. His Uranus is 0°24' from Zenith. Besides his natal Sun-Venus conjunction being so strong, transiting Venus aspects his natal Sun, Venus, and Uranus. "Happy" is the best summary of the chart.
About a day after inauguration, on January 21 at 3:40 PM EST, he has a Demi-SLR that he may already be feeling a day earlier and, in any case, suggests his first impressions in the immediate aftermath of the inauguration. If he is still in Washington, it has no close angularities though several moderate or wide angularities, including transiting Neptune, Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Saturn. Despite Venus being there, all three malefics are involved, setting the general tone as "bad." Foreground aspects may be more clarifying and include a Mercury-Mars-Neptune triplet and a Venus-Saturn conjunction. None of this is good. Unfortunately, I don't think this helps with the election issue very much: Unless he's out of office and his successor really does send the police to arrest him for something or other, it's far too severe for what would likely experience his first day out of office. If IN office, it could mean any sort of emergency. Either way, it could have nothing to do with the office at all, and could be entirely a personal matter.
