Presidential Candidates

Natal Midpoint Interpretations

There is a tremendous amount of astrological data available fueling the discussion of the three remaining presidential candidates.  Midpoint interpretations can provide pertinent additional information that we might not otherwise be aware of.

For the purposes of this article, I've chosen to focus on three specific areas that I consider to be most important.**  The following table interprets specific midpoint measurements that may help us to better understand the candidates and gain insight into their inherent strengths and challenges.

I have attempted to maintain strict objectivity in this analysis.  Interpretations are taken verbatim from my Midpoints book without the addition of any editorial comments.

 

Hillary Clinton

10/26/47 ? Birth Time, Chicago, IL

John McCain

8/29/36 9:00 am EST, Panama Canal

Barack Obama

8/4/61 ? Birth Time,  Honolulu, HI
