An Astrological Inquiry or A Political
Comedic Conversation Between Me
and the candidates
by Quan Tracy Cherry

Concepts, just words’ argument — Oh, I’m so disappointed in you, Hilly. Barack (Barry) lifted a concept from Deval Patrick — none of the statements were his — this pickiness does not benefit the Queen or heir apparent, you purport to be.

Looking over your chart, Hillary, I noticed that you and Billy have no planets in Capricorn or Aquarius. That’s why y’all don’t have little to no shame in those backroom dealings. You know, Hilly you can’t speak on changing the rules of the DNC, after you said you were going to follow them. Do you want to be called a flip-flopper like Kerry? You do remember what happened to him, don’t you?

Let me tell you something Hilly: You and Billy have no planets in Capricorn or Aquarius. And what you need to know, but won’t believe, is that Barry has the strongest political indicators in Capricorn and Aquarius. That’s why he so formidable. He knows there’s a presumption to follow the rules, or the very Aquarian least, learn these rules — amass consensus regarding when to bend and hopefully not break the rules. I call it my “3 o’clock Red Light Rule.” At 3 am, a red light is like an electric stop sign. Look both ways, no traffic, keep on truckin‚. But, if you keep running the stoplights, eventually a police officer will catch you. Call me Captain Cherry. And, it’s 3:01am.

However, Billy and you were born with Saturn (taskmaster) in Leo. You don’t feel the love, you manage and construct the love. Think Kenneth Starr and Hillary, you’ve got a pretty good image of Saturn. Like you’re going to try to do with those super delegates. I’m sure you’ve got some secrets you’re willing to keep for the right kind of loyalty. Are you sure you don’t have some Sicilian blood? But whatever your feigned answer, Hilly, lets have a sit down a la Sopranos: You are not the two smartest folks in the room. You may be the quickest thinking, or you used to be. Did you assume, Queen, that with your golden year sixtieth birthday, you’d run away with the Democratic nomination like the roadrunner of the cartoon days? Yet, you seem like the coyote — tricky, scheming and oh, so behind the times. Is Acme one of your major corporate contributors?

You and Billy learned nothing, did little to no inner work. If you had been around some real people, telling you real things, you would have, Hilly, owned up to dreams that “began to be realized,” Iraqi war “mistakes” and “sexual relations.” Neptune, the planet that blurs the blacks and whites into elusive grays, thwarted Billy in 1999. The oceanic, protean force eroded your “husband’s” sense of established structure, symbolized by Saturn (Ken Starr). It was like your faith didn’t understand St. Peter words of “building a congregation on a rock solid foundation,” not sand, and certainly not thick-lipped women with big hair. Neptune forgives. If you were able to forgive yourself for your manipulations, you could admit your mistakes. Can’t give something to someone you don’t have. Just words? Those who have compassion for themselves can easily display this virtue to others. Ain’t there yet, huh?

Yet, because you think you’re the smartest and most experienced politician, echoes of shadowy, repressive, business as usual Saturn has taken your campaign hostage. Neptune, mythical antithesis of pragmatic Saturn, has confused you like a person who hardheadedly built their home in a flood plane. Barry is your Monica. He is your Neptunian dissolver of the insider track Saturn reality. He might as well gussy up in a blue pantsuit (ain‚t ever seen you in no dress, Hilly) and wait for you to ejaculate on his left thigh. The harder you deny his potency, his allure and his charisma, the more you’ll wet him up.

You simply haven’t been honest. You’re doing the typical lower frequency Scorpio thing, keeping unnecessary secrets, misrepresenting the facts, telling stories out of sequence to confuse and power broking with shady types. You want to be president just a tad bit too much. Just like the coyote wanted that roadrunner, just a tad bit too much. It’s called obsession, power brokering or my favorite the quintessential control freak.

Queen Hill (or is that Queen of the Hill?), Neptune demands a certain honesty; if you’re going to lie, you have to believe the lie in order for the rest of us to believe the lie. Tell the truth, at least to yourself, that is, if you can handle it, you don’t believe in your lies anymore, do you? You’ve spent too much time in Hillaryland. You began to believe your own press releases and last year’s polls. Couldn’t you just settle for a cabinet post? How about the Department of Education? Raising a child, the village and student loan reform, I can see you there. Hell, right now, I hear Mavis Staples singing in the background, I take you there. Hold on, I want to the hear the chorus a second time.

Bottom line, Hilly and Billy, you took blacks, the working poor and even independents for granted for far too long. You thought as heir apparent (America longs for royalty, but not you) in 2007, you had to do no changes, do no inner work (there’s Neptune, again). You felt you could lie down with dogs (Billy and Dubya were born the year of the fire dog) and come up with little to no fleas. So, who’s living a fairytale now? Whose dreams are beginning to be unrealized?

Your little piggy self went to market, but you brought back the rants of a conflicted, concentrated fire and water individual. Oh, don’t go glassy eyed on me now, this ain’t New Hampshire. Is it not interesting that you can cry, but Barry can’t tell us his SPF number when he’s in the sun. Hilly, you and other folk born the year of the pig, can easily get caught up in luxuries, comforts and then take for granted your benefactors, helpers and supports.

You have six planets in fixed Leo and Scorpio. You are at odds with yourself. Hill, you and not-so esteemed husband, have tried to control everything, and have gained nothing. Or maybe you don’t see beyond Hillaryland? You do have a Pisces Moon, which clearly translates as instinctively delusional. Do you honestly believe that I want another term of a deeply flawed Clinton at the helm? With our reputation in the international community being as sullied as it is, you cannot believe you’re the person to rally other countries? Do you need a day-pass out of Hillaryland? No, I think you need several years pass. The white coats are waiting. What size straight jacket should I order?

If your birth time is correct, you possess Uranus in experimental Gemini in the eighth house of sexuality, and it’s retrograde at your birth. After all, you may have supported segregationist Goldwater in 1964, but even if Billy didn’t inhale; you were around when love was handed out freely, right? Your independent Uranus falls in area that’s a signature for the closet case. How did the Scorpio (known for its propensity to hold a grudge) forgive? How did the Leo part of you forgive such a public betrayal. My answer: Your ambitions, your sexuality, you and Billy arranged marriage.

Is your need for power and control that much that you’d overlook the betrayal to be future president? Or do you and Billy have an arrangement? He gets lip service, while you get tongue service? April through August of 2008, tell me what personal information will come to light that undermines your campaign further? Could it be something sexually “inappropriate?” Are you bisexual, Hilly? Not that there’s anything wrong with that (a la Seinfeld). Your chart says you are!

Hilly, your attacks against Barry will continue to boomerang. Yes, I support him. But, I support something higher than you both — the planets, universal law and timing. Billy and you participated in a mass delusion of marriage in order to get you into the White House later. Oh, btw, what is your stance on gay marriage? Was it moral for Billy to commit the infidelities over and over and over again, then lie and folk of the same sex are still denied each rights to fuck up as much? It’s a non sequitur, but when does this dream begin to be realized in the US? Which potentially divisive issues will you trump up in the next several weeks to divide the democratic power?

Take these direct words from another Scorpio. I can see you clearly. As a matter of opinion, I think you represent, in part, what’s wrong with this country. You have no deep abiding sense of what you internally value. You’ll say anything that we want to hear. You are an untrustworthy Scorpio. You are not gracious. You’re the worse of Scorpio, hiding things that openness would solve. You won’t be the first female president (Scorpio) like Teddy Roosevelt (Scorpio) was the youngest president. Coyote folk know you don’t believe your own hype. You’re calculated from a mean, or at its best, unexamined motivation. Check your heart and consider the Education post in an Obama administration.

Sneak peek to our next conversation, next Hilly, I’ll talk to you about Billy’s Uranus in Gemini (unexpected comments/opinions) doing damage to your Moon in Pisces (your female political base) — along with Chiron (wounded healer) challenging your Venus (values) that’s a couple of the planetary reasons why the women are deserting you. Later.
