Dear Ken,

I am an astrologer studying Hindu predictive astrology for a while now (which uses a different zodiac). With regard to the American elections, my colleagues and I have drawn up the chart of GWB, and compared it to that of John Kerry. I copy the results here, skipping most of the astro terminology - although every sentence can be backed up with solid astrological arguments.

Warm regards,

An Essential Indian Astrological Analysis of G. W. Bush (and the country he is leading for the time being)

(Note: We will skip astrological terminology, mentioning the most important planets or houses only, because they give you a basis for timing.)

First of all, this is not a horoscope of a true ruler, it is rather that of a puppet being forced to perform because he has no choice (even though he may well have been a soldier or warrior in his past lives). The planets in his first house would give you a hint of who is moving him: mainly oil and mining, and thirdly, pharmaceutical interests. In fact, it has always been relationships and friends who managed his life so far; these relationships and friends have been simply extreme, however.

This native simply does not have an independent personality at all, wanting to live up to his father’s formidable image, he has a minority complex. He is full of unbelievable fears all the time, and cannot live up to his father’s image (where secrecy and destructive power originates). He was probably quite neglected emotionally in his first years, especially by his father, and spent a lot of time alone. Destructive forces are so strong around him that he may actually destroy more than you can believe: he has already been participant of the destruction of a civilization – or a planet – in one of his previous incarnations. (He is not conscious of this trait in himself at all, though. As far as we know, he nearly destroyed a company or two before he became US president).

It is very likely that he has been an Arab in more than one life, and an important Native American in another life – betraying his people/tribe to the white man/the Westerners. He has also been one of those who massacred Indians in America. The karma of believing that America would be is the land of the white conquerors has been with him for many lives already (indeed, he is one man who has spent a great deal of time in North America in other lives). The only good thing that can be said about him is that he truly loves his country and his family.

This idea that America (the USA, specifically) is a unit that belongs mainly to the (white) people who founded it is coming to a close in this lifetime. However: he will be forced to realize that since land has been stolen from the Native Americans, white civilization must give it back some time – in a way (Or perhaps found new countries upon its dissolution, based upon ideas closer to Indian values.) Indeed, it is possible that the whole country will break up under or soon after his second term (see later), which he is probably not going to complete in office.

He is bound to be sacrificed by those that move him, which experience will change him deeply and force him to come to realizations from unseen quarters – but this realization may only mature by as late as 2011. We do not think he will be killed, but he may perhaps stay in confinement for a while, and it is certain that he will have to face some sort of judgment for his deeds. He will face the wrath of people for wars, the economic collapse and for his lies – which he believes have been committed for the sake of the nation.

He is an alcoholic – it is next to impossible to remain sober for a long time with this constellation. (Mercury with Pluto and Saturn, with Moon as dispositor means a destructive mind). Even though he says he is sober since he met Jesus when he was forty (the exact time is more like his early forties), he probably drinks now as well. (Or those who control him hand the stuff out to him time to time.)

He is unsure of himself as a man and his wife uses pills. His daughters betray him in a see-saw fashion: when one is good, the other one is making scandals to discredit him and gets into things like drug abuse, then they reverse the roles. The same seesaw pattern is true of Bush and his own father, Bush Sr.: his fate soars up only when his father’s fate sinks down.

The sign of the Twins (Gemini) is traditionally the sign of America (July 4 in sidereal astrology) – and Bush’s Sun is in the 12th house, the house of destruction and loss (of all worldly values). Also, 911 happened to the Twin Towers when Jupiter (Lord of the house of Enemies) and Rahu (the Northern eclipse point) were transiting the sign of the Twins, opposed by Mars (God of War), and joined by the Moon (ruler of masses). (To top this all, Bush has twin daughters.) This constellation (based on Sun in Gemini in the 12th) also creates an interesting situation: he fortifies his enemies with all his fighting. He does not know why, but the more he fights any party, the stronger his enemies become. Since he is more fanatical than his handlers realize, this will bring America into bitter and unnecessary conflicts. It was oppression and war that he was put into office for (Dasa of Saturn and bhukti of Mars). The duality that the sign of the Twins marks will force a lot of people to take sides under his rulership, changing collective karma.

He should have avoided all power, even that of a mayor or a frat president – he is bringing a dark quality into it (Pluto-Saturn together). There are past lives rich in fighting, but he is presently weak and cowardly. Being forced to go on, however, he has no other choice. Under his presidency the rich get richer and the poor get poorer – large masses will sink down into poverty, and debts of unheard quantity are and will be amassed. This will be a primary reason for his downfall, which can be stalled for a year or two (a lot of double communications, accusations, leaks and denials will take place even until then), but starting from 2006, it is a good idea to collect gold and silver and property in remote lands.

When Jupiter enters Scorpio in sidereal counting (late October, 2006), his enemies will have a field day, and in 2007-2008, when Saturn and Ketu pass Bush’s natal Mars, economic and personal collapse cannot be forestalled any longer – for himself and the country he leads. At a certain point his handlers will abandon him and it will be open season on Bush. (In fact, that can be the day of his first glimpse towards a spiritual understanding which may follow in other lives). In his case, however, it is very difficult to stay clean for time enough to gain understanding. All relationships are dependent upon power, a person of this kind is tough to those under him and soft to those above.

He is generally heartless, without much emotion, extremely narrow-minded and dogmatic, ruthless and operates invisibly sometimes. Bush cannot let go of tradition and the past at all; in fact, he is not normal in his fanatical illusions, but since the larger part of America presently accepts this particular type of madness, he is not going to be brought down from office due to sheer mental incapability. He has giant problems with his masculinity, and a constant desire for power and riches which – in his perception – he rarely gets. The ruler of the house of the future on his ascendant together with Saturn and Pluto cranks up his ego and lifts him up, but will certainly drop him at a certain point. The wars he will bring about can cause the very dissolution of the country: the issue fought for is an old one, probably a war on religion, the Crusades etc.

In spite of the orders of his consigners, he will not stop when war or attacks are hopeless: the main reason is religious fanaticism (and illusions on acquisition of land for the control of the USA). This tradition will be forced to change (the entire order of values he grew up with will undergo a radical change until 2030), and Bush will probably live long enough to see everything he fought (and lied) for crumble to dust. If he came to this astrologer for advice, we would have to be very careful in what we say or signal to him – he would be dangerous and possibly vindictive.

As far as his opponent, Kerry is concerned: we are surprised to learn – looking at his chart – that he is moved by the same Plutonian forces, which means he would have been the executor of the same will as Bush. We say this is surprising, since his intelligence and personality would lead one to believe that his presidency would have been very different from Bush’s second term. Not much needs to be speculated at this point, however, since he has some particularly bad transits (in Indian astrology) which enable even such a man as Bush to win a landslide against him. One wonders if the powers to be simply picked him to be a nice person who is bound to lose, but we cannot be certain, since they are probably not aware of the intricacies of Hindu astrology. One thing is certain: people in the same generation bear the same karmic burdens, having the transpersonal planets in the same places, and even though Kerry is truly a nice man, an independent personality, and probably a better economist and soldier than Bush, the powers behind him are – would have been – quite the same. All we can say is that the dissolution of the same negative powers will probably be all that much quicker under Bush. I would start to keep my wealth in gold and silver or foreign property from 2006 on, though, and not wait until the oatmeal hits the fan.
