More on Kerry from SAMVA

[Guest guest]

Here is the early predictive post by Thor Thorgeirsson from the SAMVA

site. 'MEP' stands for 'most effective point' (of a house). This is the

degree of the ascendant in each sign-as-house. Strength is given to a

planet if it's within 5 degrees of the MEP point. 10L (etc.) means the lord

of a house (here the 10th).

 

I didn't know anything about this 'Systems Approach' until the recent post

on the Rodden site. I don't mean to turn the sidereal site into a Vedic

site, but only wanted to show the methods by which one astrologer pointed

out Kerry as the likely Democratic nominee in January.

 

(...) means that sentences have been left out for this post. The SAMVA site

seems to have a lot of cooperative discussion of actual astrology without

personal attacks against those who disagree (from my limited reading since

discovering the site yesterday).

powerfully built, but Kerry is tall and of lanky build...One thing that

resonates,

however, is that he is an avid sportsman and was awarded all kinds

of honors for bravery in action in the Vietnam war while serving in

a leadership role.

the royal planets are prominent and in opposition. The 10L Sun is

in slightly old age [toward the end of the sign]

in Scorpio and ascendant. This makes the man career minded...

> The close mutual aspect of the Royal planets, Sun and Moon, as

also lords of 10H and 9H, is a first rate Raja Yoga [planetary combintion]

for political power, albeit the yoga is somewhat weakened. Also 2L Jupiter is

placed in 10H. Kerry has always been prominent in public life but

never " the leader " in Congress. He, however, aspires to be the

leader. As the Sun is in the ascendant, this is helpful, but it is

not the classic yoga for political power, with the Sun on the 1 MEP

itself...

His hopes and

income would have a positive impact on his status...

The problem is that Dean and Edwards also have good charts. This

makes it very hard to call the race. However, Kerry seems to have a

stronger yoga for political power with 10L Sun in ascendant aspected

by 9L Moon, with Mercury on 2H and 2L Jupiter in 10H...

What do you think?
