2000 Election

The 43rd president....who will it be? He's in the mold of George Washington, Andrew Jackson, Millard Fillmore, Rutherford B. Hayes, William McKinley, Herbert Hoover, and Richard Nixon. He's a visionary who sees beyond the finite and looks to what could be, rather than what is. He's an emotional man who seeks to take care of the nation as a whole, and extend a hand to those who need it. He thinks globally and universally, rather than locally; but he knows change starts with every one of us. He can break through the stereotypes of what currently is and break the mold to instigate something new. Just because 'it's always been that way' doesn't hold water with him. There's always a new way that could be better.

Yet, he could suffer from bouts of depression if life was harsh. He's serious, dedicated, but when things don't work out the way he thinks they are going to, it can hit him hard. It's then hard for him to get out of the doldrums and see the light at the end of the tunnel. Yet, if he was instilled with even the spark of hope as a youngster, he won't let things get to him, but keep persevering til he breaks through. He's had periods in his life where he thought all was for naught, and yet came back to fight another day.

His mother was ahead of her time. She was the one who instilled possibilities into this president-to-be. She was a communicator who taught him the value of books and education. She was a fighter, who taught him never to give up; and they probably had some intense conversations. She was a scrappy woman who wouldn't stand down to anyone. Yet, she could have been the oppressor in his life; holding him back, fearful of what might happen to him; keeping him from experiencing life and taking the risks he might have as a child. She could have experienced problems with her liver, and, later in life, her lungs. She was fiercely proud of her son; something which remains with him today.

His father, on the other hand, was the controller in the family. He was powerful, and brooked no nonsense. It was his way or no way. He ruled the family with an iron hand. He was rigid and walked with a stiff gait. Yet he married a woman who was his match. She scoffed at his control issues and lived her life as she saw it. He may have had bladder problems. In his later years, he may have lost control, and the realization of it, led him into a state of fear, causing deafness or problems with bones and kidneys.

His wife is strong. She's reserved, and has no problem confronting people when it's necessary. If she didn't have enough as a child, she has a real need as an adult to have all the fine things of life. She's a perfectionist and has a real need to be liked and have the approval of those around her. If the media picks on her or makes fun of her, she'll take it very personally. She shines in the role of mother, and has a deep pride in her children. You mess with one of them, and you have a tiger by the tail, for she will fight to the death for her kids. She can wear her heart on her sleeve.

His vice president will assume the identity of his office, and it will be hard to shake it. He is what he does, and it's hard for him to change hats from one job to another. He has a strict facade and the stress can affect his heart.

Currently, his life is being shaken to it's core. Nothing is predictable from day to day. The communication he's receiving from those around him is austere and authoritarian. His foundation is okay, having a solid base from which to act. In his career, he is hearkening back to those tapes from when he was growing up, and handling his career the way he handled his father in order to survive. The wounding is coming up to the surface to be looked at. This time he must act as an adult, and not as the powerless child.

So, who will be the 43rd president? This 'bio' comes from the chart of the United States. There is a term in astrology called "turning" the wheel. Whereby if you want to see how others act in a person's life, you can look to a specific house in their chart, or a country's chart, and that becomes the other's first house, and you count around and 'read' the trends and idiosyncrasies as if it was that person instead of the birth chart person.

I.e., if you look at the 4th house in your chart, that's mom. So if you count the 4th house in your own chart as mom's first, and exchange each house number in your chart for the representative number for mom (your 5th house would be her 2nd, reflecting on her money, your 6th would be her third, showing her sibings and education, etc.) you can read a lot about your mom and her role in your life, by looking at your own chart.

Here, I took the chart of the United States, and deciding that George Washington, as the first president, would be in the 10th house of career, I counted around 43 times.....it came up once again, that this president will reflect the energy of the 10th house of the U.S. Those before him have included Richard Nixon and Rutherford B. Hayes, who, it has been reported, had a similar fight for approval of his presidency. The others are listed in the first paragraph. So, here we see people, particularly Richard Nixon, who was not comfortable in the limelight, who was a dour person, etc. So, each of these men would reflect the house in general and refine it in various ways.

So, by making the 10th house of the U.S., the first house of this president, one can read his energies and just who he will be. I still think Al Gore reflects this energy more than Bush, with a similar awkward demeanor, like Richard Nixon.

Because I mentioned heart in the paragraph on the vice-president; don't automatically think that's Cheney. Both candidates chose Aquarians who have heart energy. Cheney may have Horse/Heart rising from a CHinese astrology perspective, but Lieberman was born in the year of the Horse/heart, and his voice reflects it.

So, those of you who know the backgrounds of these men far better than I.....who's going to be the next president? Email me at plp@acumind.com with your comments, and the best one will receive a 20 minute reading. copyright 2000, Pamela Leigh Powers; all rights reserved.
