Inauguration 2009 and Electional Astrology
According to what is known as Electional astrology the next Presidency will be a failed one. “All objects in nature are produced in Time, developed in Time and destroyed in Time”, according to the world famous astrologer B.V. Raman. It is possible, for example to arrange the beginning of important events, like inaugurations, coronations, weddings, house-building, and other significant events. Try to think of it as laying the first brick of a building. So, if the beginning is strong, that is, aligned with positive planetary forces, then that bodes well for the particular enterprise.
Possibly some of you remember that Nancy Reagan would schedule the major activities of Ronald Reagan according to the advice of Joan Quigley, for certain hours, and days. This is done according to long held astrological principles. According to Divine Guidance Carol Righter (astrologer) advised that Reagan postpone his inauguration as Governor of California for 9 minutes, until the auspicious moment of 12:10 a.m.
Now, the reason for what will be a failed Obama Presidency? First of all, at noon time the Moon will be “void”, that is, it will be transiting from one sign to another, in this case, from Scorpio to Sagittarius. “Elections” begun during a voided Moon usually do not turn out as expected.
The 2nd thing that you will notice is something called Mercury Retrograde. From ancient times, royal astrologers have avoided these periods, that happen approximately three times/yr, to avoid beginning anything important.
According to Mysite.verizon.net these two factors foretell the doom of the next Presidency. If Obama had asked Nancy Reagan’s astrologers to help him, he might have re-scheduled for a later, or earlier hour. I think 8 AM would have at least eliminated the “voided Moon.” Mercury retrograde lasts from January 12-31, so, traditionally, it would not have been possible to reschedule the day. However, the hour, could have been changed. It is unfortunate that Obama chose to insult Mrs Reagan on practically his first press conference after he was elected November 5th.
Another aspect that Vedic astrologers are more aware of is the actual “Yoga” occurring on that day. It is “Ganda Yoga” and means blocks and impediments.
Since there would be no material remedy for Mercury retrograde, there might have been a spiritual remedy, for example, fasting and special prayers, charitable donations.
However, as Al Pacino said in the “Devils Advocate” movie: “my favorite sin is vanity,” and Obama chose the flashy route.
Hi
I have been a long-time student of electional astrology and enjoy visiting your blog. I have just found an application for my iPhone that evaluates every day in the year based on electional astrology. It is a wonderful app and you may want to tell your readers about it because it is written by the same author who wrote “Electional Astrology the Art of Timing”. The app is listed in iTunes as 2009 Electional Astrology Planning Guide. It’s so easy to use and includes lots of other information besides daily evaluations. Check it out.
Thanks so much for your wonderful commentary.
