Dear Mystic,
Perhaps some of your readers have kept up with the cartoonishly absurd tragicomedy that is the US presidential election. For those that haven’t, real estate tycoon Donald Trump is, at the moment, a leading candidate for “the red team”. Now, I’m not sure what actually differentiates the American political parties from one another, besides the alternating color associations, false dichotomy, and polarization schemes, so, this is not a politics post.

Indisputably, Trump the man is famous for over-the-top billionaire bluster, visibly manifest or simplified as a trademarked, hi-albedo full-frontal comb-over held aloft by Trump as Heracles brandished the Golden Fleece. One may interpret this always-on bluff-bravado as a sort of emotional comb-over, or not. One thing is for certain: Donald Trump’s natal chart is proof positive of the validity of the astrological craft and I daresay reveals much about the motivations of a mogul.

I will leave the astro.com inputting to you: know that Trump The Birth took place on June 14th, 1946 at 10:54am in Jamaica, New York, the USA. I’d paste the chart GIF hereunder but my selections / check-offs tend to make my charts look like der stijl spirographs after a NyQuil bender.

At first glance, you world-weary fixed star navigators out there will be rewarded – this native has fixed star Algol (The Head of Medusa) conjunct his Midheaven – so yes, the hair thing is more than just an internet meme: it is a positively cosmic transformation device (forgive me, Mystic Medusa). The fixed star Regulus (The Heart of the Lion) conjunct his Leo Ascendant equals literally born under a star of fame and fortune.

BTW, Jupiter and Venus hover around that Regulus as we speak.

Closer to home, Gemini Sun conjuncts North Node, Orcus, and Uranus in the 10th House. Just the mention of his name communicates SOMETHING (in part because of his bombast, but also due to the hard work of his children, who operate his 9-figure multi-media branding and licensing empire). Mars rose just above that star-crossed Ascendant at birth, so, he gets all that Regulus stuff times a heavy dose of War God guts and glory.

Mars in Leo is Me, followed by Me, rounded out by Me, with a little smattering of Me on the side; totally self-redeeming. However, the Orcus factor severely punishes a breach of trust – which may prove a bit prickly in “wordy” Gemini. It takes an enormous effort on his part to pick his words, but he is rewarded in doing so especially if he taps the Gemini ability to bowl over the whole-brain-complex with the slightest flick of the tongue. Big mouths get heard, in any case.

Neptune, Juno, Chiron, and Jupiter pool together in the 2nd House, in Libra. His empire-splitting divorces are likely the result of imbibing a few too many ambrosia-tinis at the Olympia Club – that’s how I read Neptune flooding out Juno and Jupiter in a material-partnership paradigm. “Going younger” will clearly not fix this recurring partnership theme for The Donald, it’s a workaround to the fact that mature Juno-types get the better of him. Repeatedly. A whole harem of nymph-like Miss Universes will not change that. A Chiron-like hermitage would do him spiritual and material wonders. Will that happen? Not publically.

The last of the crowded houses is the 11th House of public relations and contact with humanity, and herein resides Mercury squared by Neptune and Venus/Saturn conjunct. h, the big 11th House story to me is the intercepted Crab. Interception is a somewhat obscure astrological signature, described as a room without its own entrance. Between the towering mansions of Leo ego and clever Gemini ever-branding nestles a hidden chamber of stark yearnings, poetic ambitions, and drippy romantic nostalgia – for lack of fair consultation, this house is easily set to flight, seeking assurance with no response, and often confused (!).

Interception simply means that the native only access that place by first consulting the adjacent signs. Natal Moon (Moon rules the Crab, recall) conjunct South Node may further repel him from visibly displaying any sort of sensitive withdrawal – a sort of anti-matter propulsion pushing that whole Big Swinging Diq fanglement further out into the public eye, exuding confidence where they might be no emotional will whatsoever to push forward. The Moon / Crab impetus may also factor into his virulent grandstanding on border control as the Crab theme is security-at-home or lack of it. Political demons are normally projections of inner demons. The man has demons, clearly, and in my experience, you can only awaken the animal spirits in others after you have discovered how to tap them yourself.

But the plot thickens!

His recent candidacy was announced on his 69th Solar Return with Moon (reflection) / Mars (me) transiting conjunct natal Sun/NN/Orcus/Uranus, while Venus (attractor) transited natal Pluto (transformer) and the North Node (marker of destiny) transited his natal Neptune (image). So that’s Sun, Moon, Mars, Venus, and the North Node all transiting natal bodies on the day a Leo Asc / Gem Sun makes a big-time, life-transforming announcement.

Does this guy have an astrologer calling the shots, or what?

If nothing else comes of this run, the “look at me!” transits are like planetary cat nip for his Leo parts. However, I do believe that his motives are keyed by his Gemini Sun. IMO Trump is playing trickster here – to position The Donald brand into a can’t-lose payoff because 1) there are many indications that the Republican party would likely have to pay him hard cash or allowances to STOP RUNNING his off-platform hijinks, 2) he ever seeks to expand his empire in the international marketplace, 3) he makes inroads with power players, and 4) gets millions of free media impressions to grow his brand awareness. Born under a good star or not, you can’t deny his strategic awareness, the ability to make and leave an impression, and the will to cash in. IMO he taps his 11th to play off the insecurities of his targeted constituents; that’s his political wheelhouse.

“You know, it really doesn’t matter what the media write as long as you’ve got a young and beautiful piece of ass.” – says Donald Trump. Read that in two or three ways; it’ll make more sense to you.
