"The natal chart is like a seed and progressions are the unfolding in time of that into the plant it is to become. Transits, are like a daily weather report. In political astrology, these three factors have to be taken into account!"

Reader feedback
World Government - Do you interpret the upcoming cardinal squares through 2015 indicative of a continuing worldwide financial collapse that would usher in a call for world government? Of course world government could not happen overnight but a financial collapse appears to be around the corner.
A. That's a pretty drastic conclusion about the UR-PL square, but it may not be far off. Perhaps the first step toward more centralized world government is getting the various financial agendas synchronized, but before that could happen, major crises would unfold to push leaders to change the system
U.S. Military - As you may know, the congressional Super Committee has a deadline of December to come up with some kind of recommendation for national savings. Barring this, if they're deadlocked, then a "trigger" is pulled for which cuts will automatically be made in safety net programs but also in the military. Given this, do you see the American military in some sort of state of transformation in the next decade not only abroad but here in America as well?
Good stories - Why don't you write a book about aspects/transits, etc that were thought to be negative, but something revolutionarily good came out of it?
The U.S. Moon - I love to read your column because you do such superb work and the 8º Scorpio chart works beautifully for your predictions. But I've been watching the 28º Aqu point as the US Moon for several years now and I'm convinced this is the degree. A few pieces of data just off the top of my head: Space Shuttle Crash when Uranus transit 28º Aqu. Last big national blackout when Jupiter in Leo opposed at 27º and some degrees Leo. Oil rig disaster when Neptune transit 28º Aqu last time.
A. Yes, 28º AQ does seem like a critical point. Did you know that 28ºAQ12' is exactly trioctile (sesquiquadrate) the U.S. Sun at 13ºCN12'?

Romney and Perry: the Pluto Connection
Fundamental transformation of the political scene relies on the outer planets to overcome Saturn, the natural ruler of the status quo. Pluto in particular empowers the individual to carry out the will of the masses, if the people do indeed seek meaningful change. How do the two leading GOP candidates stack up when comparing their Pluto factors?
Historically, transiting Pluto has been a major factor in the winning candidate’s election. A few examples… Eisenhower won in November 1952 when transiting Pluto was trine his progressed Sun (orb 0º04’). JFK won in 1960 when transiting Pluto was square his natal Sun (orb 0º02’). Reagan won in 1980 when transiting Pluto was conjunct his Midheaven, while both Bush presidents won while transiting Pluto was trine natal Pluto.
