I have written about this before and compared the astrological profiles of both candidates in terms of who would win the presidency from an astrological perspective. You see, the planets are really the final determination for events. Even if a person is more talented than another will not always give us the final answer. I hate to compare this election to American Idol, but just let me give an example of a contestant, Michael Johns, who was recently eliminated. Now, if we look at is astrological profile, we see that Michael's natal Moon is in Gemini. The benefic planet Jupiter is now in Capricorn, or his 8th house, or the house of loss. Obviously, he was/is a talented performer and many predicted his winning. Another example, election 2000, Al Gore won the Presidency, but the national election was held on a day when the planet Mercury was retrograde. this even happens about 4 times every year and any knowledgeable astrologer will tell you that it spells chaos for elections. Remember the "dimpled chad"? Now, we had another Mercury retrograde earlier this year, namely from January 28th until February 19th. During this time the "renegade" states held their early primaries and were "penalized" by the DNC by losing their delegate voting privileges. It is a widely held American value that all have the right to have their vote counted. so, most likely, Obama's early lead will probably be reversed, when Michigan and Florida primary results are counted in favor of Hillary. It was during this time that Senator Obama was enjoying his "free ride" with the press. now, every aspect of his life is being examined, from his association with communists to Louis Farrakhan, to William Ayers and Bernadette Dohrn, to the "Reverend" Jeremiah Wright. He is no longer being seen as the Democratic candidate who can withstand the upcoming Republican challenge. He is a compromised candidate. Democrats want a candidate who can beat the warmonger McCain. Other astrologers have pointed out that there has never been a President with a Pisces Moon (Hillary), but there has never been a female President. She also has Mars in Leo, a trait that many former presidents have, but Senator Obama does not have. Now there is some controversy about the birth times of both candidates: 8 AM or 8 PM for Hillary and 106 AM or 106 PM for Senator Obama, so it becomes treacherous to predict. In the case of Hillary, either value will predict a win, as Jupiter will be in either her 10th or 11th house from the Moon. In the case of Senator Obama, the afternoon birth time becomes a case for his eventual loss. There are actually, quite a few birth times floating around and none has been verified by astrodatabank, which is the main authority site. I personally believe that the time of 7:06 PM is the correct one as it jives with the first 10 yrs of his life being spent with his mother (10 yr Moon period 1961-1971) and then being sent at age 10 to live with his grandparetns. Also this gives an Aquarian Ascendant with Jupiter and Saturn in the ascendant. This accounts for his well known humility. This also puts Mercury conjunct the Sun in the 7th house and accounts for his identity as an author. Also, Saturn in the Ascendant accounts for his success in other countries; it is well known that he is popular in Kenya, his father's homeland. This birth time puts the Moon in Gemini and accounts for some of the well known Gemini mannerisms that he displays, like cocking his head to one side. However, with Jupiter now in capricorn, his 8th house of death, I would predict an eventual loss. I believe, that his rise to prominence has to do with his being in his major Jupiter period (1996-2012), with Jupiter being in his 1st house, but debilitated. This birth time also puts Jupiter in the 12th position to his Aquarian ascendant, another house of loss. Also, his wife Michelle is an Aquarian both solar and lunar.
