Newt Gingrich broke into tears yesterday on the campaign trail for president. Crocodile tears? Newt is an air sign Gemini, June 17, 1943 in Harrisburg, Pa. with no planets in water signs except Jupiter....none of his personal, fast moving planets are in water. Water signs - Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces - usually have a tear on the brink of expression most of the time.
.....witness Scorpio John Boehner. Scorpio Hillary Clinton also teared up when she was running for president 4 years ago. Even Sen. Ed Muskie, who, back in 1972 when he was on the campaign trail, wept because of the treatment of his wife by the press, shed a tear or two....but altho an Aries, born March 28 1914 in Rumford Maine, Muskie had Mercury in Pisces and Mars in Cancer. But Gemini? Air signs are usually more stoic and unemotional. Doesn't mean they don't have feelings, but they usually come from the intellect and rationalize and analyze and usually don't give way to tears. We can't think objectively and feel subjectively in the same moment, according to Carl Jung, so it takes something to make an air sign cry. Newt was speaking of his mother and he is probably exhausted, but one wonders how genuine the tears were. It wouldn't have come naturally one suspects.

Week of December 25th - January 1, 2012 - Political insights
Merry Christmas! Jupiter goes direct at 5:07 pm est, just after all the presents are open and the last piece of pie is eaten.....we can be feeling the largesse of a opulent planet on a festive day.
The sun conjuncts Pluto on the 28th, lending a touch of intensity to the end of the year's festivities....a sudden touch of reality, and on the 31st be aware...Mercury squares Mars, Sag to Virgo....some slip of the lips can cause hurtful feelings.
Political Insights:
Michele Bachmann - Saturn squares her Uranus on the 30th....someone rains on her parade.
Newt Gingrich and John Boehner - in 1943 Jupiter was in Capricorn at Gingrich's birth. By 1949 and Boehner's birth, Jupiter had moved to Cancer, and Saturn in Libra now is squaring both of them, which seems to be stressing their political ambitions.
Jon Huntsman - Uranus will conjunct Huntsman's sun this year, sure to open up new paths in new directions.
Ron Paul - When Sun conjuncts Pluto, they will trine Paul's Mercury and Uranus....some good news this week.
Rick Perry - Like Boehner, Uranus will square Perry's Uranus this year, which can suddenly uproot him from his plans, but Dec 25th on Christmas, should be an opportune day.
Mitt Romney - Neptune is currently squaring his Moon and Jupiter in Scorpio, which may be why he isn't seen as being defined.
Rick Santorum - During this time Pluto is squaring his Venus and the sun will too on the 28th, which could see the finality of his bid.
President Obama - the president has been in a Pluto trine Pluto phase, and o the 29th, the sun will trine it too, so we should see some hilite of how things are going.
United States' chart - Saturn squared Pluto in the US chart, showing the power struggle, now things will let up a bit.
Happy New Year!!!

John Boehner - Not a good day
So, the word floating about Washington D.C. is that Scorpio Rep. John Boehner, Speaker of the House (Nov 17 1949, Cincinnati, Ohio), and his party caved today on the 2 month extension of the payroll tax and unemployment benefits, and privately, and on tv - not so privately - they are saying that this time next year, he won't be speaker.
Saturn in Libra squared his Jupiter in Capricorn today. Now, for the rest of us, this is usually a time where someone in authority isn't so inclined to give us what we want. But when the person is in politics like Boehner is, well Jupiter rules the political scene, and today Saturn squared it, and he didn't get his way. Come March, Uranus is going to do it's second square to itself, where a lot of people retire, or in other ways aren't in the same 'job' by the end of the square period.....from the sounds of the rumors, Boehner didn't get the cooperation he wanted from his party and a power struggle may ensue, easing him out of his post.
In the United States' chart, the Uranus/Pluto aspect currently building in the sky, finds Scorpio Boehner being Pluto and Leo President Obama (with Uranus ruled Aquarius rising) being Uranus. Pluto is a bit ahead of Uranus, and the hippie planet is huffing and puffing, running to catch up by June, but Pluto has shot it's wad with Jupiter in the U.S. chart, moving on a bit, and now Uranus moves in to square it (Jupiter), back and forth next year, being the new player in the field, taking Pluto/Boehner's spot. So, there will still be a clash of energies in the coming year, but Uranus feels stronger and more able to take Pluto on.

Week of December 18th - December 25th, 2011
We're down to the wire with Christmas only a week away. Venus squares Saturn on the 18th, 27 of Cap to Libra and inconjuncts Neptune 28 Cap to Aquarius on the19th, so a critical word or two is smoothed over the next day. The Sun then sextiles Saturn on the same 19th, 27 Sag to Libra... rules are set forth.
On the 20th, Venus enters Aquarius, and then the Sun sextiles Neptune, 28 Sag to Aquarius, intuition is sharpened, while Venus squares Jupiter, 0 Aquari to Taurus...we have an inclination to indulge. At the same time Venus sextiles Uranus, 0 Aqu to Aries, a last minute unexpected turn of events.
The sun enters Capricorn on the 21st and immediately trines Jupiter, 0 Cap to Taurus on the 22nd... something may arrive at the last minute. Sun squares Uranus on the 22nd, 0 Cap to Aries, , just before the new moon on Christmas Eve, 2 Cap, and then Jupiter goes direct on the 25th...Christmas should be a good experience, but the new moon is near Pluto and the sun conjuncts it on the 26th, so intense emotions can raise their head after the festivities. Resolve to let bygones be bygones and not take the bait.

Newt Gingrich
Info on Newt Gingrich's date of birth is DD. We have June 17, 1943 in Harrisburg, Pa. But astrodatabank.com says that his office gave 'just before midnight' by his mom, and so they set it at 11:45 pm, but the family says 3:00 a.m. 11:45 would be Aquarius rising, and by 3:00 it's moved just into Taurus. In there, Mars conjuncts Pallas at 15 Aries. If we took 2:00 am EWT, then the rising is 13 of Aries and Mars/Pallas is on the ascendant. Either way, it's either in the first house, or the last planetary bodies the ascendant passed over before birth, so would have a strong effect on the personality. I would think, from his brashness, that he'd have Aries rising, or Mars close to the ascendant, above or below, to give him his 'taking no prisoners' personality.
Mars in Aries gives a pioneering spirit, but Mars can be mean spirited and Pallas is pure mind, no emotion. The fact Mercury conjuncts Uranus in Gemini, plus Pallas, provides the quick, clever mind, and Sun conjunct Saturn provides the conservative philosophy and no nonsense personality. The sun in Gemini opposes the moon in Sag, which usually means his parents weren't getting along at birth, and he has a push pull between his head and his heart
One wonders how accurate this early a.m. chart would be, because it puts almost of his planets below the horizon which usually is a person that prefers a quiet home life, and doesn't like to climb the ladder of success and be out in the public. ...but that Aries rising is sooooo tempting. Aries is argumentative, brash, "in your face", opinionated and wants to be first. With Mars in Aries and, if it's near the ascendant, it just accentuates it all.
Venus conjuncts Pluto, providing a deep sexual nature, but also shows that Pluto went over Venus in the first couple of years of life, and that usually indicates some abuse of some kind that set his personality. In the mid 80's, Saturn conjuncted Pluto in the sky at late Libra, while Pluto was moving in to square his natal Pluto, the time of key power struggles in one's life, leading to empowerment or squelched. It's a time where the abuse of childhood is re enacted again, this time with different 'actors' in the roles. In 2012, he's moving into a 'saturn return' from that earlier period 29 years down the road, to see what has happened in the interim. Jupiter is the planet before Pluto, his 'destiny' planet, showing his interest in politics.
Currently, Pluto is inconjuncting itself, correcting his forward motion if it's gotten off the track, and it usually has by this time of life. Saturn squared Jupiter on the 16th of December, 2011, Jupiter being politics and Saturn being judgment. It could be his time in the sun on the Republican slate is due to slide now. Saturn squares Jupiter again on April 3rd and back and forth in the fall of the year. By that time Saturn has also squared Pluto going into the election, so if he gets that far, his stars aren't going to be as bright then as they are now. Mid July will see his highest popularity.

Chelsea Clinton - Give Her a Break!
For heaven's sake.....Chelsea Clinton, daughter of the former president, filed her first news effort with Brian Williams on his nightly newscast, and you wouldn't believe the feedback. She was generally panned.
Chelsea, daughter of Bill and Hillary Clinton, has spent the majority of her parents' political career,in the back ground, but ventured forth to try her hand at news broadcasting in her 30th year......and regardless of the feedback, she was fine. We all need to get off our high horse, treat people how we'd like to be treated, or more particularly, how we'd like our child to be treated, and stop nit picking over every little thing.
Chelsea was modulated and definitive in her presentation. Of course, she was nervous, who wouldn't be? But she carried herself well, and delivered her first news item professionally.....time will allow her to breathe, relax, and be more animated. For today, she was fine.
It all looks easy. Just get up there and read the prompter, but like anything, the anchors make it look easy. When Lawrence O'Donnell started on MSNBC, he was unsure and awkward. It seemed like he felt the need to get really confrontative and get in people's faces. He really didn't look like he had what it took to have his own show. But he had a wealth of knowledge, going back to his days working in Washington, so it was worth watching. Then, Keith Olbermann's dad became ill, and Lawrence took over extensively and after a period of time he got into a groove, and now he's an excellent anchor.
So will Chelsea.
Chelsea was born on February 27, 1980 in Little Rock Arkansas at 11:24 pm. She's a Pisces with a Leo moon and Scorpio rising...and Uranus in Scorpio in the first house. Pisces like acting, but they like to be behind the scenes more. Yet, a Leo moon needles her to get on camera. Scorpio rising is going to make her intense and serious, but with Uranus there in the first, which rules tv, she has chosen to challenge herself and get out of her Scorpio shell and use that Uranian energy to get out in front of the camera.
I am a Virgo with Venus in Leo. Leo loves the limelight, Virgo hates it. I had to do a tv appearance one time and as my son drove me to the studio, Virgo was getting nervous, so I tapped into my Leo and said "Venus in Leo will love this" and focused on that, and got thru it without a problem.
Chelsea's Pisces sun and Scorpio rising may like to wheel and deal behind the scenes, but Leo moon and Uranus in the first, drives her to do what secretly calls to her.
From the Chinese astrology perspective, she was born in the Year of the Monkey, the month of the Boar, the hour of the Rat, and minute of Tiger. The Monkey gets what he wants. If she wants a broadcasting career, she'll stick with it and make it work. The Boar energy may get stressed, and want to pull back, but the Monkey will be resolute and help her past her fears.
In the coming year, Pluto is just finishing trining Jupiter and Mars, and will sextile her sun in the coming year, so she has positive energy supporting this new career. On february 16th Jupiter will trine itself, lending luck and opportunity, and Uranus will trine the moon in the coming year. which should find Hillary moving in new directions as well as stirring up her own Leo energy.
Don't listen to them, Chelsea, you were professional and more than competent in your first broadcast. Comfort in front of the camera will come soon. Check in with Leo!

The Good Wife - how much better could it get?
I watched soaps for years, but it was never "turn off the phone. nobody bother me' type fanaticism - even tho I wrote the astrology column in Soap Opera Digest for about 5 years - but when "The Good Wife" comes on at 9 pm on Sunday night - that phone better not ring.....no one better need anything.
TGW is mesmerizing. Julianna Margulies is mesmerizing. Josh Charles, Christine Baranski, Archie Panjabi, Chris Noth, Alan Cumming....all are mesmerizing. The supporting cast on a show is always important to me, and I love them all. No one comes on the screen and I think "ewwwww. just leave".
"Parenthood" is my second favorite show now, but it's not the same. I love the cast, but I don't care for the storylines in most cases. It needs a new direction, new writers, maybe new directors; something behind the scenes that can turn it into more intriguing fare....but the cast keeps me coming back.
No problem with TGW.....there's nothing to point out, nothing to complain about......it's just mesmerizing from the moment the clock strikes 9pm til 10 pm arrives far too quickly.
We remember Julianna Margulies from "ER" and her matchup with George Clooney. I never watched ER much after they left. Julianna was born on June 8, 1966 in Spring Valley, New York. She's a Gemini with an Aquarian moon. The Aq moon gives her the wide appeal she has, but here we have two air signs, and you don't get that smoldering sexuality from air. No, that probably come from her Venus in Taurus. Mercury and Jupiter conjunct in Cancer, which can lend another aspect which keeps her grounded and sultry.....air signs are more flighty and wired. If we knew her time of birth, it would undoubtedly add to that groundedness.
In the new year, with the major aspect being Uranus moving in to square Pluto, Julianna has Pluto trining her Taurus Venus, so more accolades should come her way. Pluto also inconjuncts Mars back and forth all year, peaking in September when it goes direct again, after its retro period. An inconjunct is fairly benign, but there might be some surgery or a fanatic fan she has to deal with.
Josh Charles comes back to tv after a stint in New York on stage. We remember him from "Sports Night" with Felicity Huffmann. Josh was born on September 15, 1971 in Baltimore, Maryland. A seemingly self effacing guy, Josh's Virgo Sun and Venus conjunction is intensified with Pluto in Virgo nearby.....he's an intense guy who is probably meticulous and has his world organized. A Leo Moon softens the Virgnoness, and if we knew his time of birth, we would see where that magnetism comes from. In 2012, Pluto has moved passed most of the aspects to his planets, so uranus moves in to shake things up a bit. In the fall tho, when Pluto goes direct, it will be at the apex of the Yod between Saturn and the moon. Pluto is at the "answer" point.....it will show him his next move.
Christine Baranski is a Taurus, born May 2, 1952 in Buffalo, New York. Her Taurus sun is complimented by Jupiter in Taurus, and would be harmonious with Julianna's Taurus Venus. A Leo Moon gives her the love of the limelight, but Pluto is nearby, so she could well have mother issues.
2012 is a little dicey, what with Pluto squaring and Uranus opposing Saturn, back and forth. There might be a power stuggle, but by 2013, Pluto moves in to trine her Taurus sun, and all works to her benefit.
Alan Cumming literally struck gold with his role as Eli......a one dimensional character has been fleshed out exquisitely under Alan's guidance, and it's fascinating to see the vulnerability behind his outbursts. Alan was born on January 27, 1965 in Aberfeldy, Scotland. He's an Aquarian with a Sag moon. Sag loves to travel, which is indicative of the fact he moved from his native Scotland to the states. An Aquarian usually has wide appeal because it's the sign of the 'collective conscious'. They have excellent minds, which may be photogenic for remembering lines. In 2012, Uranus sextiles the sun and trines his moon, so opportunities will open up for him to move in new directions.
Chris Noth, "Peter", was born on November 13, 1954 in Madison, Wisconsin. He is a water sign with a capita "W"! He has a stellium in Scorpio - Mercury, Saturn, Sun and Venus, with 2 asteroids as well. Then he has moon, Jupiter and Uranus in Cancer. He's a very emotional person, but with Saturn as the planet behind the sun, he's also capable of letting his needs be known. Coming up, the new year looks fairly tame, but by 2013 he'll have his second Saturn return, where he'll re evaluate his life and decide what he still wants to accomplish and move in that direction.
Archie Panjabi, "Kalinda", was born on May 31, 1972 in Edgware, Middlesex, England. She's a Gemini with a Capricorn moon, and Saturn in Gemini conjunct her Gem sun, which gives her a strong non nonsense presence, yet she has Venus in Cancer to soften it. The new year sees some shifts in April, but the Uranus/Pluto major configuration will affect her Jupiter the strongest. Good she isn't in politics, but she can now be empowered and perhaps move in new directions.
After the holidays, I'll try to get back and comment on the charts of the other major cast members......but now back to my dvds of "The Good Wife" !!

Week of December 11th - December 17th, 2011
Mercury goes direct at 3 of Sag on the 13th at 5:42 pm pst. Those presents you purchased online that seem to be back logged, will probably all come in at once. The communication/travel planet has been all pent up and now it releases and the delivery trucks are working overtime. Mercury's retrograde was pretty tame this time, at least for me......my laptop's screen goes white suddenly, periodically, but it doesn't lose any of the info, so I can live with it for awhile.
The moon goes thru Cancer, Leo and Virgo this week. It squares Uranus at 0 Cancer/Aries on the 11th, and opposes Pluto at 6 Cancer/Cap later on in the day. We saw last week as Uranus was getting ready to go direct, that there were even protests in Russia. Later on in the week the Moon trines Uranus from Leo at 0, on the 13th, and inconjuncts Pluto at 6 degrees Leo/Cap on the 14th....then ends the week with the moon inconjuncting Uranus from Virgo to Aries, on the 15th and trines Pluto at 6 Virgo/Cap on the 16th.....while it conjuncts Mars on the 16th as well. This period can be volatile.

Week of December 4th - December 11th, 2011
Mercury's retrograding in Sag and backs into Sun on the 4th; you can be looking for something you've lost and find a bunch of stuff from past retrogrades that you think long lost. At the same time Mercury squares Mars from 11 Sag to Virgo, so there's some contention around mid afternoon in the west.
On the 5th, Venus trines Mars, 11 Cap to Virgo, so feelings are assuaged and love is in the air.....sexual tension anyway. Uranus goes direct on December 9th at 11:04 pm PST at 0 Aries. A change in direction is always a potent time and Uranus can really stir things up. There's also a full moon on the 10th, which is a lunar eclipse, 18 Gem to Sag. Better to finish things for Christmas than to start anything.
The Moon goes thru Aries, Taurus and Gemini this week. The moon sextiles Uranus on the 8th and inconjuncts Pluto on the 9th, while it squares Mars on the 9th as well......Uranus is at 0 of Aries, Pluto at 6 degrees of Cap, and Mars went over those degrees in Virgo last week, and is at 10 degrees now, but still in fighting range. Mars tends to trigger the slower moving planets to action.

Ashton and Demi have Split......anyone surprised????
Ashton and Demi have split.....is anyone surprised? Forget about the age difference....Forget about the all the celebrity. Demi's a Scorpio and Ashton's an Aquarius......'nuf said.
Water and air don't mix. Scorpio is subjective and Aquarius is objective. Scorpio gets all intense and emotional over things, and Aquarius is essentially unemotional and analytical......Carl Jung said you can't be objective and subjective at the same time. If someone has water and air signs in their chart, they can flip in a nano second, but they can't do both at the same time. Makes it hard on Cancer/Geminis, Libra/Scorpios and Aquarius/Pisces. They can be logical, and linear and objective for long periods of time, and then someone pushes a button and they can lose it and jump into emotion and intensity and lose all sense of objectivity. Same too, with two people in an air/water relationship. They are just two really diverse people coming from different perspectives. He probably wonders why she gets so intense and angry and emotional over things, and she gets enraged that he's sooooo laid back and won't respond.
Demi was born in Roswell, New Mexico....that much we know....Time Cycles Research lists Nov 1, 1963. IMDB says Nov 11, 1962. Most reports say she's 49 this year, and I've seen Nov. 11 more often than Nov 1st., so let's go with that. Astrodata bank lists 2:18 pm as the time "From memory". Who's? Hers?
That gives her a Scorpio sun, Taurus moon and late Pisces/Aries rising.......with Saturn in Aquarius. Saturn would not work well in Aquarius. And not be amused by their antics.
Ashton was born Feb 7, 1978 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He has a Sun/Moon conjunction in Aquarius with Uranus in Scorpio, Mars in Cancer, so he has the water energy that was probably drawn into Demi's water energy, but then, the air signs, and Pluto in Libra, Jupiter in Gemini, along with Mercury, Sun, Moon, Venus in Aquarius was just too much. PLUS, he has Saturn in Scorpio....so he's not any happier with Scorpio as Demi's Saturn is with Aquarius.
How did these two ever get together in the first place?
In their composite chart, their sun sign is conjunct with Venus in Capricorn, so that brings them together and gives them stability. Since Saturn rules Cap, maybe that does something to neutralize the Saturn's in the other's sign.
The coup de gras was that the Nep/Pluto Master Yod started for them by bouncing off Jupiter which made it work, and now it has cauht up with and has been grating back and forth over Mars.....and Mars is going to trigger anger and angst.
This is a relationship to be enjoyed while it's hot, and then wish each other well and go on your way.
