Heres why I believe Astrologically, that John McCain will win the election (From a neutral, European citizen):
On election day, November 4th 2008, the Moon which represents the mood of the people, will be in Capricorn. A standard rule which holds true 95% of the time in parliamentary democracies (Where the incumbent Government party has the advantage of picking the election date) is that "on dawn of election day, if the Moon is in trine or conjunction to Saturn, within a 10 degree orb, then the incumbent party will retain power".
Now, at dawn (say 7am) on November the 4th, the moon will be at 24 degrees Capricorn. Saturn will be at 19 degrees Virgo. This is a trine (5 degrees, separating), which satisfies the rule, thereby favouring the incumbent Republican Party. For clarity I will list the Moons aspects below:
> Square Mercury at 29 Libra (6, applying)
> Sextile Mars at 21 Scorpio (2, separating)
> Conjunction Jupiter at 17 Capricorn (7, separating)
> Trine Saturn at 19 Virgo (5, separating)
> Sextile Uranus at 19 Pisces ( 5, separating)
> Interestingly, for the 7am chart, the Moon is 150 degrees (Partile) From the Midheaven
How might these aspects to the Moon alter the above rule? The major dynamic on election day is the partile Saturn-Uranus opposition: This has led many astrologers to predict Obama will win. If we let Saturn represent McCain and Uranus represent Obama, We can Judge who wins based on the aspects to these planets from other planets and their nature. They are listed below:
Saturn's aspects:
> Trine Jupiter (Cap, 2 applying)
> Sextile Mars (Scorp, 3 separating)
> Square Venus (Sag, 1 separating)
> Trine Moon (Cap, 5 separating)
Uranus' aspects:
> Sextile Jupiter (Cap, 2 applying)
> Trine Mars (Scorp, 3 separating)
> Square Venus (Sag, 1 separating)
> Sextile Moon (Cap, 5 separating)
> Trine Sun (Scorp, 7 applying)
Now, Which planet wins the fight? At first sight it looks like Uranus, energized by trines from Mars and the Sun, Sextile Jupiter (Uranus disposits Jupiter, traditionally). Saturn also has a strong showing, Trine Jupiter, who disposits him and also receiving some energy from the Mars sextile. Venus squares them both - Venus is in Sag and her dispositor; Jupiter is in Capricorn.
Now, if I let the 7am chart represent the election, we get Saturn as the most elevated planet, in the 10th house. The MC is Trine Pluto, suggesting possible skullduggery was used to win the election- The Asc is trine Uranus which favours Obama. However considering all of the above I favour a McCain win - this will be a controversial election with civil unrest after the result is announced (particularly by young people - represented by Venus which squares Saturn and Uranus) with people angry believing they were conned or lied to by the winning party (Mars Partile Square Neptune). Given the strength and conflicting nature of both planets (Saturn and Uranus) it is possible that the result could be overturned, after much civil unrest and controversy. McCain is going to pick his VP in the next few hours, Speculation suggests it may be Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. If he does pick her than, astrologically he is a dead cert winner because venus (aspects described above) will represent the change: First Female VP in American history.
What do you guys think?
