Thank you, Jane. I see that I do have that book by Robert Hand. You must have been around during the Project Hindsight days and have all the books as I do? I consider those little books to be real treasures.

I don't use either progressions or directions and rely on transits and cyclic charts (solar return and ninth harmonic charts) for prediction. Just now checking the transits on August 20 and 22 (when Kamala is scheduled for her acceptation speech), both Mars and Jupiter are just above her natal ascendant. So any Mars energy would be coming from herself in we'd expect a fiery and determined way. As Neptune just now is high in the sky in relation to her natal ascendant ( at the zenith, 4 degree square) I'd expect the general euphoria to continue. So using transits I don't see any danger for her.

Using the sidereal NG/Zenith as Kamala's 10th house cusp or the tropical Pisces MC, Neptune is co-ruler of the 10th house of career, now aspecting her ascendant. I'd see this as the main explanation for the current euphoria, and why I expect it to continue.

Hi Therese,

Yes, I've a few of the Project Hindsight texts and intensives; they always surprise me with something new on review.

lol...we have completely different takes on what will happen; I've been placing most of the weight on the nature of the planets, their condition in the radix and house connections in the profection and SR without much attention given to the actual aspects which, on review, are mostly conjunctions (prominence) and sextiles (fortunate opportunity) so if I'm way off I will have a clue as to why and where revisions in my approach are needed. Either way, we'll know what actually happens fairly soon.

Time stamp from the FEC in in upper right corner as July 21, 2024 @ 16:48, Philadelphia, https://docquery.fec.gov/pdf/296/202407 ... Za4DyeTnOg

Thanks to US astrologer Steve Stuckey for finding this data.

I have displayed the chart for Philadelphia as this seems to be the lodging location. However, you could also locate the chart for Washington DC where the FEC is located.

The chart is displayed below.

Thanks Mark,

Yes, that's another positive for Kamala I would suggest as the angles of this chart activate Kamala's natal chart via her Horizon axis at 25 Gem=Sag and importantly it is the MC at 25 Pisces-Virgo that is activating the axes here. So perhaps the MC is providing a clue on the success of her Democrat Party candidacy here.

I should point out that her natal axis is extremely important as it provides the central force to her powerful Kite configuration of Sun-Sat-Nodes/ASC-DC. Oddly enough I can't find any analysis online that mentions this kite.

btw. Mark, Deborah Orr writes off Harris on her site. As does Indian astrologer Abhigya Anand.

Hi Greg,
Thanks for the links to two additional "takes" on Kamala Harris. I don't watch videos, but read with interest Marjorie's words. I find it fascinating how opinions of Kamala Harris are stacking up on both sides of the election question due to the varied techniques astrologers use in their work. I'll post my own view soon which is pretty much "set in stone."

It is indeed very interesting that the MC of Kamala's Candidate chart falls on the nadir of her natal chart. That could perhaps be seen as a clue as to her importance in the coming election. The fact that Jupiter (with the Part of Fortune) is on the 7th cusp in the Candidate chart and in square to her natal Ur/Pl/Ve must also have significance. Since it's Jupiter making the aspect, can we see this as a positive indication? This Jupiter/Fortune falls in Kamala's natal chart above the ascendant within the 15 degree range: 1st or 12th house depending on the house system.

Dorotheus had mentioned the importance of 15 degrees in relation to house cusps, but he was talking about the space forward from cusps, not the cusp as center used in India, the house system I use. I'm just now getting a strong feeling about the position of that Jupiter/Part of fortune floating above the natal ascendant. Jupiter is the most angular planet in the Candidate chart. Oh, and star Antares is on the ascendant of that chart. Can we expect fireworks at election time?

Antares according to Oscar Hofman and Vivian Robson is a malefic with the signature of MA. It is the ”cosmic killer” (O.H.) and represents the evil essence of Scorpio. It ends cycles and deals with overestimation of ones power.
Vivian Robson on Antares at the Asc: “assets are short-lived”.

Hi Jane,I tend to agree with your forecast.
The analysis of KH's chart and solar arc directions, on the 22.5 degree dial, using Uranian Astrology, brings up multiple indications of her being in grave danger, as a victim of violence, either by acts of terrorism. accidents or natural disasters.

It seems to be those using Sidereal charts that are writing Kamala Harris off from what I have read so far. If anyone has an example of a Vedic astrologer thinking otherwise that would be interesting. Maybe Mark can see some differences between Tropical and Sidereal astrologers and astrological reasons why that may occur. It seems largely to stem from the Mars Gemini transit both to US Mars and KH Node-ASC in Gemini.

There are western sidereal astrologers along Fagan/Bradley lines and "Vedic" astrologers. I combine elements of both traditions. Jim Eshleman isn't discounting Kamala Harris. Neither am I. Eshelman has a very long discussion of Trump/Harris charts on his website. I've been thinking of making a separate topic here with a few of his comments, plus a link to his discussion that can be read by anyone interested.

therese

the term 'vedic' gets tossed around fairly indiscriminately as i see it...

i am curious to read any commentary you feel like sharing..

thanks..

Hi James,

"Vedic" is a false moniker for India's astrology. It was born in California in the 1990s. I was there when it happened.

I plan to write an election article with a number of charts, and will probably post it here as a separate topic. I've had my mind made up about the inauguration for some time. But I want to wait until after the Democratic convention. With the prominence of Jupiter in Kamala Harris' present ennead/9th harmonic chart (posted here earlier) the money sure is rolling in!

I have to say I really don't like this FM chart prior to the Democrats conference in Texas. It has warning signs written all over it. When set for Washington DC the Venus-Saturn opp is right on the MC-IC axis. Mars-Jupiter on 8th cusp set for Austin,TX. First thoughts were financial problems or even the beginnings of a crash ruining the atmosphere. Mars transit to K. Harris's node and AS is a worry so will need to look at her Return charts for more clarity. What's certain is that it will be eventful Convention with a few shocks involved.

That would be a better outcome than thinking the worst.

Anyone see any better outcomes?

As far as I know the DNC on the day of the full moon was set for Chicago IL, not Texas. Wrong chart with wrong angles. Mercury Rx. again? The Washington chart does look ALARMING!

BTW, the USA Sibly chart has a Mars return shortly afterwards, and it's quite alarming too.
