Introduction
ASTROLOGY DOES NOT WORK IN A VACUUM. Personal effort, "doing one's homework"
(or not doing it) are elements that can significantly affect outcomes
predicted by astrology. If the prediction says something like "job outlook
is bright," it applies almost exclusively to persons who wrote job
applications and made contacts in anticipation of the predicted cycle.
Otherwise, the prophesy is not likely to materialize and it fades away as
"lost opportunity."
PART-I: 1992 Elections
I estimated that Mr. Bush would lose the 1992 elections already in January
1992, when his popularity was very high. (I mailed my prediction to more than
1000 astrologers around the world and showed it on the "Greeting Screen" of
my Bulletin Board.) How did I estimate this outcome? I "ran" transits for
Mr. Bush. Then there was no clear opponent and I did not predict "who would
win," only that Mr. Bush would not win. (The details leading to this
conclusion are discussed later, after Mr. Bush's chart is presented.) By
midsummer, Mr. Clinton was the candidate of the Democratic Party. The transit
results for November 1992 were as follows.
a) Mr. Clinton, Summary
The AsterPro output shown below summarizes Mr. Clinton's points for days 1 to
24 (upper row) of November 1992. The points allocated to the 12 "Affairs of
Life" (column 1) and the Total Daily Points (last row) are very nice for Mr.
Clinton to November 16. Note the increase from -15 to 6 on November 4.
COMMENT: The points are derived from the angles - called "aspects" in
astrology - formed between the current transiting planets and transiting
planets and (Mr. Clinton's) natal planets. The table shown below is a
"Summary" that is produced at the end of a day-by-day monthly run. The
details of planetary patterns follow the Summary.

c) Mr. Clinton, November 4, 1992. The planetary aspects which contribute to
the empirical points tabulated above for Mr. Clinton and Mr. Bush are
outlined next. Bill Clinton moved above the required 270 electoral votes
with the vote from Ohio at 10:48pm. Thus, points on November 4, 1992 apply.
(Since Mr. Clinton's time of birth is not known, his "Solar chart" is used.)

Transit NN:23Sag29 H(So: 5/Na: 2) A 60 NATAL JU:23Lib15 H(SO:03/NA:12)
COMMENT:In other words, Transiting (Moon's) North Node at 23-deg Sagittarius
======= and 29 minutes (at 0-hour of the day leading to November 4), and in
Mr. Clinton's Solar 5th house (of Luck, Popularity) was "APPROACHING"
("A") SEXTILE ("60"-degrees) to his Jupiter at 23 Libra 15 in his
Solar 3rd. Astrology "values" Sextiles and Trines (120-degree angle)
as positive; Squares (90-degree) and Oppositions (180-degree) as
adverse, challenging, and conflicting. The Conjunction (0-degree) is
an aspect of intensity and may be positive or negative, depending on
the planets involved. "Houses" in astrology refer to "Affairs of
Life" and represent 12 30-degree segments of a circle, which, in
turn, represents the sky around planet Earth. Thus, this is a study
of "how current planets affect Mr. Clinton" who is represented by his
natal chart.

Transit NP:16Cap33 H(So: 6/Na: 2) A 2 Transit UR:14Cap47 H(So: 6/Na: 2)
COMMENT:Aspects between two transiting planets apply to ALL persons (but in

natal planet apply only to individuals who have a natal planet at
that position.

COMMENT:
1. Points between -3 to +3 may be discarded, unless they represent a jump/
drop between two dates, as in the Summary Table shown earlier.
2. Negative points do NOT always suggest adversity (which depends on the
planets involved), BUT also events, action, activity...
3. Generally, adverse aspects by Saturn are accompanied by arduous
"restructuring" of some (ie, house affairs transited) aspect of one's
life; Uranus by "uprooting," sudden, and unexpected developments; Neptune
by illusion, self-deception, treachery; Pluto by "endings, new
beginnings."
d) Mr. Bush, November 4, 1992. Note the role of NEPTUNE, the planet of
illusion, mistakes, regret, disappointment... on Mr. Bush.

e) My Prediction Explained
The influences of far planets, such as Pluto and Neptune, last (on and off)
for more than a year. In Mr. Bush's case, Neptune is in a Square (90-degrees)
to his natal Moon. Astrology attributes to Neptune nebulous qualities. While
no astrologic pattern can guarantee concrete and irrevocable outcome, in
January 1992, I considered possible ramifications of Neptune's influence on
Mr. Bush's Moon and postulated an "educated guess" about how this influence
could manifest: lack of clarity and focus, pursuit of a "wishful," not a
"well-organized and well-targeted," (election) campaign; illusion, false
hopes... Combined with the very negative Summary results for November 1992,
I concluded that things did not look promising for Mr. Bush on November 3 and
4, 1992. I still hesitated reaching a final decision, because a president has
many advisors who are presumably not affected by Neptune. My prediction
turned out right, I suspect, partially because Mr. Bush did not obtain the
advice he needed. (I voted so as to maintain the "deficit & debt" in mind.)
f) Conclusions
The transit output fully confirms the following realities.
1. Mr. Clinton was in an optimistic mood on November 1 and 2. He grew
apprehensive on the afternoon of November 2 (-15 points on November 3).
But by the midnight of November 3/4 his points showed a remarkable
(+21) improvement (to +6), the improvement continuing through November
17. Note especially the wonderful aspects by Jupiter and Mercury in 1st
(Magnetism), 3rd (Communications, Trends, News), 5th (Popularity, Charm),
and 11th (Groups, Public, Support) houses.
2. Examine the chart of Mr. Bush, especially the illusion, "false
promise/hope," and disappointment elements associated with "transiting
Neptune square natal Moon." Contrary to all indications, Mr. Bush
believed he could win until the last moment.
3. Major fluctuations in 8th house of "Enforced Changes" (re: Mr. Bush) are
of particular significance. These points are very important for anyone
who has dealings with others (i.e., expecting favors, awaiting a
decision, waiting for the outcome of an undertaking...) An undesirable
or unfortunate situation invariably accompanies a drop in 8th house
points. This may not always be "bad" in the long run. It forces one to
conceive other, perhaps better, alternatives. But on the day when the
event takes place, things may seem hopeless.
PART-II: MR. CLINTON AND HIS PRESIDENCY
a) Preliminary Work
After Mr. Clinton became the new president, I knew that his Sun at 26 Leo 9
would soon place him at the mercy of one of the severest aspects in
astrology: "PLUTO (in Scorpio) Square Sun." This could be a "make or break"
cycle of his presidency. Astrologic influences begin when the transiting
planet moves to within about 1.5 degrees of the natal planet and last until
the former moves .5 degree past the natal position. So it was a matter of
plotting Pluto's position relative to Mr. Clinton's Sun. Due to the
retrograde motion of transiting Pluto, this cycle repeats THREE times,
starting with a MILDLY adverse cycle early in January 1993 that lasted until
about March 1, 1993. The really challenging and "testing" periods are as
follows.
COMMENT: Obviously the adverse influence by Pluto may be exacerbated or
mellowed significantly by aspects formed by other transiting planets.
October 29, 1993 to December 31, 1993
April 1, 1994 to June 28, 1994
August 8, 1994 to October 17, 1994
Since the transiting planet is Pluto, the implication of adversity is not
(merely) differences of opinion about policy issues. It entails something
more substantive, perhaps a significant challenge to Mr. Clinton's overall
effectiveness and prestige. Of course, all of us want him to succeed, but he
is under adverse cycles during these periods. (One note of comfort though! A
President of the United States enjoys almost limitless "cushion" against
adversity. A "Pluto Square Sun" would be really severe for a (regular)
John/Jane Doe who is "wide open" to life's bumps.) April 1994 seems to be a
potentially difficult month and is analyzed next.
b) Analysis, Level-2
At this level the analysis is still a "bird's eye" view of the influences
derived from the Monthly Summary Tables - like the one shown for the
elections - for the months listed above.

Synthesis of April 1994: Critical days marked by "^" April 1994 may be the
SEVEREST test of Clinton Presidency. Difficulties, challenges (4th, 8th, 12th
houses), and/or losses (5th house) are indicated during the first FOUR days,
and on April 11, 14 and 15, and 20 to 22. A Foreign Policy (9th house)
concern arises on April 3, 11 and 12, and 22 to 23. The month will be ruled
by strained communications and interaction (3rd house) with others
(Congress?, public?) during the entire month. These may also manifest as
major differences which need to be ironed out.

-8 -8 -9 -6 4 3!SCORE: -12/ 0=-11. SUMMARY OF THESE 30 DAYS: Eventful!
c) Analysis, Level-3
The analysis outlined above can proceed into specific details. This is
achieved by concentrating on aspects which "trigger" events. "Critical Days"
are defined as periods during which one is on the "receiving end" of events,
when one is less in control and more at the mercy of external variables.
These may manifest as challenges, serious differences, unexpected
developments, (for a president) a drop in polls, mistakes, or some sort of
crisis... Things "happen" on these days. For the entire period, some of these
critical days may turn out to be "Turning Points" in Mr. Clinton's
Presidency. These days are:
1. Dates on which the points drop significantly, especially from positive to
(very) negative - which were outlined at Level-2.
2. Oct 29 to Nov 5 - 1993 => Challenges and Conflicts
3. Dec 1993 => Sober, arduous, serious, and taxing
4. Jun 27-28 1994 => Challenges and Conflicts
5. Aug 21 1994 => Difficult
d) Analysis, Level-4
This is an arduous process involving a day-by-day and planet-by-planet review
of the cycles. Some of the critical days may be removed from the critical
list, other days may be added. This can happen when, for example, transiting
Venus - a planet considered to be inherently positive - is favorably
positioned. It mollifies, if not cancels, adversity elsewhere in the chart. I
will not proceed to this level. I believe the study contains sufficient
amounts of concrete data and observations to illustrate the way transits may
be used to project future opportunities.
