Astrologers Predict "Volatile Planetary Forces" Will Influence Presidential Election

"With Saturn opposite Uranus on Election Day, the person elected on Election Day may not be the person who's inaugurated in January." Raymond Merriman, Astrologer

Fifteen hundred astrologers attended the United Astrology Conference in Denver, Colorado back in May. The consensus among a panel of seven astrologers was that Barack Obama would win the next election for President along with other more "ominous" predictions regarding the "presumptive nominee, election day, and the possible consequences of whomever is actually inaugurated as President. 

According to the Washington Times, astrologers looked at the "volatile planetary events in the next few months" which could affect the "presumptive" nominee of the Democratic National Convention. They're referring to Obama, whom the astrologers predicted "most likely to win" the next Presidential election. 

"I think there's a lot of unexpected things that are going to happen between now and the Democratic National Convention." Astrologer Robert Blaschke

The astrologers also predicted that the "presumptive" nominee may not be Obama by the time the Democratic Convention is held in August due to "volatile planetary events".

The astrologers looked at the planetary circumstances surrounding election day, how it had been 45 years since the last time Saturn opposed Uranus, which could portend "social change, transformation, and possibly upheaval". 

According to astrologer Raymond Merriman said the winner on election day may not be the same person inaugurated next January as President.  The astrologers also noted that the date of the Inauguration is "scheduled for a particularly bad time" planet-wise, and that astrologers were concerned for Senator Obama's safety. 


Here's a summary of what the astrologers have determined will unfold in the next few months in regards to the Presidential election:


The next few months will be "volatile", with perhaps the person who is the current "presumptive nominee" not being the actual person to accept the nomination at the Democratic National Convention held in August. 

Saturn will oppose Uranus on election day. It's been 45 years since this last happened, it signifies "social change, transformation, and possibly upheaval". 

Astrologers believe that the person who is elected on election day may not be the same person to take the oath of office on Inauguration Day.

Whoever is inaugurated may face concerns for their "safety".

John McCain never entered the equation.

We're not quite sure why the astrologers focused solely on Obama and not Republican candidate John McCain in regards to the "volatile planetary forces" at work during the next few months. The astrologers focused more their favorite candidate, Barack Obama, whom they agree will win the election. 


Even so, we found the astrologer's predictions to be fascinating. It will be interesting to see if their forecasts hold true the next few months until the Democratic National Convention, the election, and then the Inauguration. The prediction concerning the safety of Senator Obama, if he is the person to be inaugurated into office, is troubling. As with all predictions its purpose could be to serve as warning that Senator Obama may need to take extra precautions and that those who are entrusted to protect him may need to undertake extra measures to ensure his safety. 

We look forward to the next few months and beyond to the inauguration in January to see if any of the predictions come true, if the planets really can foretell the future.

Clinton & Obama Astrology Forecast - Feb 14th, 2008

Under the star's benevolence, who will receive celestial glad tidings and the key to the White House?

We thought it was time to look once again at the frontrunners of the 2008 Presidential election and their astrological forecasts. As Hillary Clinton and Obama Barack battle it out in the Democratic primaries will the "stars" affect them in different ways?

Hillary Clinton, using Birth time as 8:02 AM, Tropical Placidus Natal Chart

Feb. 17th Mars Conjunct Uranus
Actions can be taken without due thought or consideration, and this can create future difficulties, through following unwise choices. A lack of sensitivity to others, and a diminution of common sense, can occur; and you may look for ways to release the sudden pressure that can rapidly build up inside you. In extreme cases, this can be expressed through explosions of temper and anger at any provocation, even to the point of physical violence; certainly attempts to release the energy through verbal and emotionally directed violence towards a partner are common.

Hillary may find herself being abrupt and rude with others. Hillary's drive for freedom and authority may find her acting rash and headstrong.

Feb 18. Venus Sextile Jupiter

You may find solutions to whatever problems you have. You will feel social and gregarious.

Barack Obama, Birth time 12 AM, Tropical Placidus Natal Chart

Feb. 14 Sun Oppose Uranus

While you tend to insist that your will is paramount, you really need to learn effective forms of social compromise, realizing your misapprehension of being the all-important center of the universe, which is symptomatic of an imbalanced Sun.

Feb. 16 Mercury Square Neptune

Whilst you may often have insight into the motivations of others, you need greater clarity in your own nature. Relationships may remain problematical for you until some degree of personal change has been achieved, and you may be advised to be cautious within your emotional commitments. This is basically because of elements of illusion that can afflict you, and that tendency to avoid facing facts that you do not want to see, such as the fundamental that a relationship is not mutually satisfying if you need it to continue.

Feb. 18th Venus Oppose Mercury

Sexual activity without emotional involvement may attract if opportunities present themselves, and may possibly be taken to gain some sense of security and attention from others, as well as for pleasure. Excessive food consumption or denial through anorexia may also act as compensatory actions. Passivity in relationships might be adopted, so that rejections caused by another's displeasure or conflicts created by your assertiveness are minimized.

Feb. 18 Venus Conjunct Jupiter

Your breezy disposition and warm nature make you popular with almost everybody. You are too easy-going, though, and some individuals may try to take advantage of you. However, you are rarely embittered by such negative encounters. You seek and are sought after by people who are also self-assured and who expect to succeed. Source - Astrology Weekly

Feb 19. Jupiter Trine Ascendant (Feb 14 - Feb 25)

A very good time for Obama, as his ability to express himself openly and confidently garners him even more support. He will face no resistance for his plans and will win respect and admiration from others.

As we have seen this past week, momentum has swung in Obama's direction while Hillary has been frustrated by Obama's primary wins.

As of today Obama has pulled ahead of Hillary in the number of delegates needed to win the nod at the DNC convention with 1253 to Hillary's 1211.

Obama is seen as a great orator whose messages of hope inspire voters to envision the future of a more positive America while Hillary is seen as having to fight tooth and nail to get her own "message" out there, every tear, frown and frustration amplified under the MSM microscope.

Obama's Jupiter Trine Ascendent is working in tandem with his already smooth delivery style while Hillary's Mars conjunct Uranus works against her, bringing forth frustrations and limitations which spill over into the area of confidence, so sorely needed during the pressure-cooker lifestyle of running for office, especially that of the President.

At this point the stars are favoring Obama while placing obstacles on Hillary. Since some transits seem to be short lived, it remains to be seen if the stars continue their support of Obama or if Hillary's internal struggles to remain confident continue to plague her.

Next up, the Republican frontrunners, McCain and Huckabee.
