The Kamala Harris Donald Trump debate is scheduled for 10 September 2024 in Philadelphia at 9pm. That puts a fight-for-control Pluto in the 10th and an argumentative, heated Mars in the communication 3rd; with the Virgo Mercury and Sun in the attention-seeking 5th house. Although the Sun opposition Saturn will put a damper on proceedings – and in line with everything else about this contradictory, star-crossed election has the Sun also square Jupiter opposition a Sagittarius Moon. A Mutable Grand Square will have a tendency to go off like a windmill in a storm, scattering in all directions – nervy, indecisive, not conducive to rational debate. Indeed, now that I look, there is an out of element yod onto Mercury inconjunct Neptune and Pluto, and square Uranus. Mercury on the point of a yod will tend to make for intellectual and mental disorganization. I pity the poor moderator.
The relationship chart between DT and Kamala is horrific with a bitterly hostile composite Venus, Mars, Sun, Pluto opposition Moon. It is being rattled every which ways right through the election with tr Uranus square the Sun through November and square the Mars and Moon late November through December. With a disruptive tr Pluto opposition the Uranus late November to the end of December. It will be an ill-tempered brawl right up to the wire.
Kamala Harris, 20 October 1964 9.28 pm Oakland, California, has tr Saturn exactly opposition her 4th house Pluto at the debate. She comes from a split parental marriage when she was six and her 4th house Pluto points to a concern about emotional undercurrents especially with a controlling father – so a face to face with DT may activate a few sensitive issues for her. She will have moved from a muddled tr Neptune square her Mercury/Saturn midpoint in action at the moment though not too visible – except she has done few if any interviews or her speeches would be written for her.
By the debate she has tr Neptune square her Sun/Saturn midpoint – from September 3rd to mid October – which may make her uncertainty more visible with lack of energy, bringing an undermining feeling. At the same time tr Neptune is also square her Solar Arc Sun for a minor amount of droop. None of these are hugely major but her joyous wave may be sagging slightly. Her Jupiter in Taurus is probably what has kept her afloat and given her the recent boost. But as it comes round to the next exact aspect in late November to late December it also catches her Mars/Saturn midpoint which is accident prone and subject to setbacks.
Trump, like Harris, has two of his Mercury midpoints being undercut by Neptune right through. At the debate, he’ll be more muddled and nervy than usual. His Solar Arc Neptune will be exactly conjunct his South Node (close to his Moon) – perhaps bringing his mother/women issues into focus. Nothing too dramatic. Through October he has tr Uranus square his Mars – a rerun of the influence over his shooting, not that it is likely to repeat, but he will be shaken and insecure, likely to be over-reacting as a result.
Who knows? Even more of a mish mash than most elections.
