Any natal star map is not a static object even though it appears to be just that and that is also true

of any other birth. It is simply the map of a moment, a freeze-frame of the sky with that stillness for

the purpose of seeing the patterns clearly because the sky never truly stopped in its motion.

Astrologers use the actual movement of the cycles past the freeze frame called the birth event to

see the growth and development of what was begun in that moment of time, the progression of the

birth and what that represents. For the USA the freeze frame was the birth of our country and the

progressions are the growth represented by experience. It is quite simple to see who we are (birth)

contrasted with what we are becoming and what we now need in order to become (progressions).

The call goes out from the country, the electorate responds, a person is elected. That person fits

beautifully into the natal and the moving star map, our fearless leader, our elected president.



My research on the election process for the United States (USA) shows clear connections

between the birth sky map, the progressed positions for the election date and the current transiting

positions for the election date.







The USA birth information used is set for July 4, 1776 at 9:36 am in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

There are 13 primary positions that reflect the basic character of the country and its needs: the

Ascendant, Midheaven, our ten major solar system bodies and the Lunar North Node.

The USA progressed pattern in this instance is set for Election Day November 4, 2008 using the

original coordinates. The 13 original positions have moved naturally the equivalent of 232 days

from birth reflecting the 232nd year since the birth of the country. These new positions reflect the

changing and current needs and status of the country for the chosen election year (2008) as a

stand-alone map for the 4-year term of that election and can also show connections to the original

birth pattern.

The third measure (think of Spock's 3-dimensional chessboard on the old Star Trek series) is that

of specific Election Day energy, again using the birth coordinates for consistency. A map is

constructed to show the energy pattern for Election Day as it relates to the USA. This can also be

used as a stand-alone seeding illustration for the 4-year term of the election and can also show

connections to both the original birth and the progressed patterns.

The progressed and day patterns reflect a 4-year term. If the election happened to be based on a

10-year period, the time of effect would be 10 years. The progressed and day patterns will always

be in motion providing new information, but the seed planted on Election Day determines the

unfolding of the term in question. There are more comparisons possible such as the connections

between the president and vice president and the team they represent to the country, but we are

going to consider only the three country patterns in this article for simplicity's sake. I will deal only

with conjunctions and oppositions with tight connections. I will keep my explanations simple,

minimal tech talk. You do not have to be an astrologer to understand this article.

We as a country had been alive for 232 years as of Election Day 2008. We had started from a

dream of the Founding Fathers and had stretched and grown tremendously over that time. We had

a heart and a core that was clearly defined (natal positions) but we had experienced and been

changed by experience over the intervening years. What we are now is a composite of what we

started out as and what we have become through being and doing. The core of who we are is still

there but it has been reshaped by 232 years of experience. We are a constantly changing,

hopefully evolving group effort with new needs and emerging dreams. That is shown by the

ongoing state of our being, our progressing patterns. An Election Day choice must address who

we are at our core as well as what we have become. And as if that isn't enough, the day itself has

its own energy, drive and dynamic from which we as a country cannot be separated. It affects or

becomes incorporated into our being-ness as the seeding principle mentioned. "Whatever is

begun in a moment of time carries with it the qualities of that moment in time" is paraphrased from

the writings of Carl Jung. Just what were the connections between the three described patterns for

Election Day 2008?



The Midheaven is a good place to begin as it describes our current status in the world, the

mountain of achievement we are climbing, our reputation, the work to be accomplished. By

progression the USA Midheaven has moved from the original 8 Gemini 52 position traveling

almost 2/3rd of the way around a complete 360 degree cycle to 24 Capricorn 15, about 5 minutes

(a few weeks in timing) from the opposition (stress, monkey in the middle) to our USA Mercury

(communication, local activity and our youth). Talk about a direct hit! The grass roots movement

and the turnout of our youth in this election were amazing and boy did we experience

communication during the primary process. A lot of that communication was argument and

confrontation, mishandled in myriad ways. It is important to realize we were born with a very

stressful powerful communication that can be used for good or for ill. This was a key pattern for

the country at the moment of election and whoever was elected would both inherit and embody

this need.



What else? The normally backward-moving Lunar Node is cuddling up to that always forward

moving midheaven over the next two years as we deal with old bad habits of relating and

responsibility in cultural alliances. We are under an international spotlight. We cannot rely on

habitual international social and cultural habits, we must force ourselves to grow and to own up to

what is wrong and fix it. The sign is Capricorn we are responsible! This could get very

uncomfortable in the doing, but do we truly want to perpetuate what is wrong with our country or fix

it?



What else? Our Progressing Mercury is at 23 Aquarius 46 and retrograde, a little over a degree

past the USA natal Moon at 22 Aquarius 38. Our election process emphasized communication,

youth, and grass roots as mentioned above which is connected tightly into our emotions (Moon),

our independent streak, our sense of humanity and group awareness, with a strong sense of the

future embedded deeply (Aquarius), leading up to election. The retrograde nature of the

progressing Mercury indicates a pattern that was in place for the primary and election process but

which would continue past the point of the election itself. The person elected was expected by the

country to provide this energy. Look at the other candidate team (names are unnecessary, look

only at the energy). Could the competing team have provided the country with what it needed?



Our progressing Moon was about to change signs from Leo to Virgo, from drama to practicality,

from an influence of inflationary emotions, egotistical bubbles and entitlement habits to a period of

hard work, learning to do more with less, developing our discernment of those who represent us

as a collective, plus learning as a country that life does catch up with us when we're not paying

attention.



I haven't mentioned Pluto, Uranus and Neptune in these progressions because they make new

connections very slowly in the heavens because of their vast orbits. Moving Pluto is still very close

to its original position as is Uranus and Neptune. They do activate from time to time over the

hundreds of years of our existence, but not by progression this year.



Previously I said the progressed pattern could be read as a stand-alone map for the election's 4-

year term. There is an opposition (stress, tug of war) between our current social and financial

values and our also current assertive, aggressive urges and our need to take action and the

pattern is growing stronger. Venus is at 17 Aries 39 and Mars is at 18 Libra 40 and retrograde,

(opposite) and getting stronger (applying). The signs are that of stand up on your own two feet and

do it yourself (I-ness) and fairness, honesty, relating and partnership (we-ness). Does any of that

that sound like the tremendous financial crisis, health care reform, the bail out crisis, and the

general tug of war that is going on in our country at the moment? This opposition is not over yet;

this usually short-term aspect will affect our country and its people in this instance over the four

years term of this presidency because it is in the seed planted at the moment of the 2008 election.

This pattern would be in place regardless of whom we elected. It is a lesson we must learn. The

person we elected to the presidency did not cause the pattern; it is a naturally evolving

progression of the country itself, a lesson on which we are collectively working. President Obama

got himself elected to serve just as payment came due. Lucky him (and hopefully lucky us)!



Because I can see it so clearly, I will mention that about eight years prior to this election, the USA

progressing positions encountered Saturn on the Descendant, a restrictive, rigid, disciplinarian

energy that limited, blocked, and thwarted our international work with our trade partners, alliances,

and cooperative ventures. Again, the USA naturally progressed to a point where this became the

lesson. The person elected filled the role needed, whether we like what happened or the person in

charge. This was go-to-school time, and we did go to school! This restrictive energy planted a

seed that is still in effect at this moment. We can see the effect it has had and is continuing to

have on our experience. It occurred in the sign of Scorpio, long term-finance, taxes, insurance,

credit card matters, debt, and ecology, our environment. Sound familiar? These patterns take time

to work themselves out. The progressions well describe the current experience of the whenever

we choose.



What about Election Day 2008's energy itself? A new president was elected in that moment of

time and the qualities of that moment in time will affect and influence our chief executive and

therefore our country and its citizens. I've spoken at length about the Saturn/Uranus opposition

currently in the sky that repeats every 45 years. The current rendition began exactly on Election

Day and made its second connection about two weeks past Inauguration Day. The forces of

conformity are pitted against the forces of change. Does that sound familiar? That which wants to

preserve the status quo and allow the past to continue unchanged is in mortal combat with that

which wants us to move forward, change what is necessary and to fix what's wrong. Where do you

stand? Bear in mind, I'm simply reading energy patterns, not making up aspects to suit nefarious

purposes. There was a third pass on September 15th and two more passes to come before this

energy pattern is finished at the end of July 2010. Hopefully we will learn our lesson and have less

of a problem in 45 years in the future when the pattern returns.

The 2008 Election Day's energy brought an interesting tie between the day's Ascendant 18

Sagittarius 27 and the day's Venus 20 Sagittarius 21, a close union (conjunction) between our

financial and social values (Venus) and our coping skills and the face we present to the world

(Ascendant). It is a Sagittarius face, full of fight, daring, challenge, reaching, stretching, and

hoping. Will it overreach itself, a typical Sagittarius foible? The combination is approaching a

connection to Pluto but that is two elections away. It is a lesson for our future, one we might study

so we can be prepared. Will we do that?



The Election Day Moon was right on our natal Mercury/Pluto opposition (power/communication in

stress) and right on the progressing midheaven (stature, goal, ambition) mentioned earlier in this

article. This shows tie #1 between the natal, the progressed and the diurnal (day) patterns as I

said was possible. As if that wasn't enough, Election Day's Neptune (spiritual essence) is very

close to the natal Moon (who we are as a people, our emotional independence feature) and the

progressed Mercury (communication, youth, grass roots) previously mentioned, tie #2. Although I

had not mentioned it earlier, that conformity versus change Saturn/Uranus opposition (tug of war)

is very close to the USA's natal Neptune, which is both our natal and progressed spiritual essence

and core, tie #3. The natal, the progressing and the individual day's patterns are quite intimately

connected.



There is no error in this or any other election. The country calls. The electorate answers the call

and votes. An individual responds to that exact call for every election. Barack Obama is now our

president and there was no error. The country called, the man responded. My intended sequel to

this article has already been published. Please see part two on President Obama, Vice President

Biden and Team Obama/Biden's tie to these USA natal, progressed and Election Day patterns.









Marilyn Muir, author of "Presidents of Hope and Change: Bringing Hope to our Future by Reaching

into our Astrological Past."



Jefferson, Lincoln, Kennedy, Obama... The Lineage of Hope



Based on ground-breaking research by noted astrologer Marilyn Muir, this book describes the

remarkable similarities of these four presidents in their Aquarian connections to the USA and their

commonalities of character and motivation.



In a non-technical way, the author details how their sky maps (astrological charts) synchronize

with the important events that took place during the lifetimes of presidents Jefferson, Lincoln and

Kennedy-all of whom held office at profound moments in our nation's history. Ms Muir reaches

deeply into the USA past to predict our nation's future. Demonstrating through meticulous

astrological research how, under each of these president's watches, the country not only survived

deep setbacks, but went onto greater and more successful heights.



The author takes the reader on a fascinating journey through the stars as she details the strengths

and weakness in President Obama's own sky map; describing how and where it aligns to not only

the birth chart of the USA but also his connections to the specific chart of his own inauguration. Is

he the right man for the job?

Read the first 36 pages (PDF) including the charts of all four Presidents - you'll get hooked!
