I find myself feeling a little sorry for The Donald this week as the news has become a daily pile on of ridicule for the Republican Presidential nominee. I'm even considering putting out a call for group prayer for this man for certainly if he is indeed as messed up as the reporters and pundits are now claiming, then holding him in the light for a minute or two would be a kindly thing for all New-Agers to do. But first, in order to really tune in on this hurting soul I decided to first consider his astrological chart. It was a sobering revelation.
Donald Trump was born under a full Moon in Jamaica New York on Friday June 14, 1946. He's time of birth gives him the Sun in Gemini, Moon in Sagittarius and Leo on the ascendant. Let's see what all this means.
First of all, we look at his ascendant. Donald was born with the entertainer's sign Leo on the cusp of his first house - meaning he's at his best putting on a show and indeed much of Trump's approval with the public comes from the name recognition he's received from his television series, The Apprentice. But he's a showman in whatever he does whether it's hosting a t.v. program or performing for crowds at his campaign rallies. The force is with him when he is being entertaining. This explains why he has been able to be a successful candidate even when he has been at his most outrageous. All that his chart requires of him is that he keep putting on a good show.
Each sign is associated with a planet and which house that ruling planet is in tells us where the energy of the sign will express itself. Donald has the sign Leo on the ascendant and Leo's planet is the Sun. The Sun in Donald's chart is in the 11th house of friends and associates in Gemini. This explains Trump's feeling that he shines out as the best in any group and indeed it explains his belief that only he can solve America's problems.
The Sun was in Gemini when Donald was born and typically for Geminis, he has made a career out of wheeling and dealing and making connections. Gemini rules writers and Trump published a very successful autobiography (ghost written) and is famous for his many tweets. Geminis are also known for taking shortcuts and saying things that may be useful or witty in the moment but are not necessarily based on fact. Indeed, Trump has gotten himself in hot water this last week particularly for making up lies about viewing videos from Iran. Someone should point out to him the full ramifications of being born under a full Moon which are that it's very hard to keep secrets under a full Moon - eventually the truth comes to light. Curiously as the various potentially damning facts do come out about Trump he seems not to be hurt or slowed down. This may be because again, he's being entertaining and that is what his soul came here to do. Thus he has not broken any of his spiritual commitments and so the slings and arrows don't seem to hit him. Heaven help him if the mob ever gets bored!
Trump has the Moon in Sagittarius, the sign ruling foreigners and religion, exactly conjunct the unfortunate south node. Much of his campaign has been about his fears of foreign countries and Muslims. Also the Moon rules women and his wife is from a foreign country.
Other interesting aspects in the chart:
Saturn, the harsh reality planet, is next to his Venus. the planet ruling love and material possessions, in the sign Cancer, the sign of home and family. Trump has been married multiple times and has many children but the Saturn influence has given him an inability to forge lasting ties with partners and so the marriages ended in divorce and the children were raised by others. However, as Saturn rules fathers and is conjunct loving Venus, his now adult children seem to have positive feelings about dear old Dad. His latest marriage may also turn out to be successful as he is old enough to be his new wife's father.
Saturn rules that which is worn out and thus Donald's Saturn in Cancer influence also accounts for his attempts to characterize America, a Cancer country, as somehow feeble and in need of being made "great again."
Mars, the planet of war, rules his ninth house of foreigners and is in his first house of self. Thus he honestly believes immigrants, Muslims and illegal aliens are threatening him personally.
He has Pluto, the planet ruling nuclear destruction on the cusp of the first house which explains why he thrives on attacking and never backs down. While this may be a helpful placement for him in his business negotiations it could be potentially catastrophic were he ever to actually become Commander and Chief.
So what is ahead for this B.T. Barnum act-a-like? For the past 30 years Trump has had his progressed Sun in Leo, further rewarding his out sized personality. However, this week his progressed Sun moves into the sign Virgo - the sign ruling health and attention to small details. Already we are hearing stories of his campaign being in trouble as no one seems to be taking care of the mundane essentials like printing signs and organizing volunteers. But even more telling are the reports coming out that his supporters are beginning to question his mental HEALTH! How Virgo can you get? Whether Trump really has the classic signs of a sociopathic narcissist is open to debate but I do think it's fascinating from an astrological point of view that the news stories are now spinning to portray Trump as a very sick man.
