Hillary Clinton's Progressed Moon declination and going up

The declination degree of the progressed Moon seems to indicate the level of your personal position, especially when the progressed Moon is Out of Bounds (what is that? See it here: http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2014/01/out-of-bounds.html ).

In January 2016 the progressed Moon of Donald Trump reached her highest degree in declination. From then on, the Moon descended. An earlier study of mine showed that your most popular years are the 4 years before the progressed Moon’s highest position in declination and that the year after that highest point usually is the most difficult one. It is like descending steep stairs and knowing that it will take a long time to reach that level again.

Hillary Rodham Clinton’s progressed Moon, however, is at a rather low level, but going upwards. Husband Bill’s progressed Moon is about to reach top level this year. The lowest position of the progressed Moon is reserved for retirement, stepping back and taking a brake, sometimes to prepare yourself for ‘climbing’, like Hillary Rodham Clinton did when she didn't show herself as much as to be expected in the first weeks and months after her nomination.

I am going down, unfortunately, since early this year and that is fully understandable if you knew my situation. Earlier, my health seemed to be improving and I was looking forward to a nice couple of years with husband, family and dog. Now I know that any hope for those years was in vain and I hope to spend the few years (?) left as good as I can.

Her announcement was on April 12, 2015, with the progressed Moon in the 8^th degree North, opposition her natal Moon declination degree. Then it is June 6, with the progressed Moon in the 1^st degree South. Wikipedia writes:

“By June 6, 2016, she had earned enough pledged delegates and supportive superdelegates for the media to consider her the presumptive nominee.^[428] The next day, Clinton became the first woman to claim the status of presumptive nominee for a major American political party."

Her progressed Moon was rising again!

Zero degree declination (Progressed) Moon

Did you know that Dominique Strauss Kahn and Bill Cosby share a Moon declination in the 1st degree, close to point Zero? Dominique Strauss Kahn later had a progressed Moon out of bounds, while the progressed Moon of Cosby remaind in bounds. What could the difference be between molesting ladies WITH or WITHOUT a progressed Moon OOB? This?

Molesting females WITH OOB Progressed Moon makes you lose your wife and reputation because you are beyond your limits.

Molesting females WITHOUT OOB Progressed Moon means that you can go and and on....because the community protects you.

When you were born with the Moon in the 1st degree of declination, would haat mean that your OOB Progressed Moon brings you in a danger zone? Or would it mean that the theme of how to deal with women will be prominent? Is the 1ste degree of declination the lowest for behaviour? Of course, there is more than just that declination, and we shouldn't generalize, but still: I find the fact that they both have that Zero degree Moon very interesting.

But now this one: the declination of the progressed Moon of Máxima Zorreguieta (now wife of the King of the Netherlands)... When the Dutch Queen got engaged and married the progressed Moon (going to be OOB later) would be at a very low point in the graph (although in 2002 - year of the marriage - the progressed Moon got higher again). In her natal chart, the Moon is In Bounds and in the 12th South. I think that there is something uncontrollable about the progressed Moon at Zero degrees declination. I think that, because her life was dominated by the public's opinion, the media and politics and that - at that point - lost her independence. 

Could it just be, that the Zero Degreee Declination of the Moon refers to a critical and not so controllable point?

Right now, the Moon is in the 11th degree of declination, in bounds. If you want to know where your natal or progressed Moon is, try Astro.com (Exertion diagram progressed declination in the Special Charts section).

Progressed Moon Out of Bounds: special periods?

Does the Out of Bounds declination of the progressed Moon signify a period of successes or is the OOB progressed Moon a risk? To answer this question I looked at the charts of Lance Armstrong, Dominique Strauss Kahn, Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, JK Rowling and Jean-Marie le Pen. I came to the conclusion that the four years before reaching the highest degree, the progressed Out of Bounds Moon signals an exceptional period of growth (and alienation), while the first time after reaching the top position, there seems to be a danger of decay.

When the progressed Moon was OOB and reaches the lowest position later, there is a period of drawing back (a pause).

You can find the declinations of the Progressed Moon in the Special Charts of Astro.com (select Ebertin Life Diagram Progressed Declination). A position is Out of Bounds when it reaches a declination degree of  23° 26' 14.675″ (23° 26′ 16″) north of the Equator or  23° 26' 14.440 South.

My examples are:

1. LANCE ARMSTRONG

Lance Armstrong had a very successful period after his illness and later he lost it all…Progressions and transits cooperated with the declination of the progressed Moon.

-       In October of 1996 he found out that he had cancer. This was with progressed Moon on 14d36N, almost parallel Pluto. From that moment on the Moon moved to zero degrees in 1999.

-       The Moon moved upwards later, and in 2002 the progressed Moon was again parallel Pluto.

-       Between 2005 and 2008 there was a progressed OOB Moon S. In 2006/2007 the progressed Moon reached the highest level. That was when he quit biking and had had good years (think of Livestrong). In 2008 he had his comeback.

-       In 2012,when he was 40, the progressed Moon had again become parallel with Pluto and the ‘demasqué’ began. He lost all his titels.

Apparently the Moon-Pluto parallel mirrors extreme experiences and the OOB Moon S mirror his best years (but, ….only for outsiders). If life would repeat itself, then from 2017 on better days are coming for Armstrong.

In the 4 years before reaching the top level of the OOB Moon (2002-2006) he was popular, rich and happy as far as we could see.

2. DSK

Dominique Strauss Kahn had a very high and powerful position between 2007 and 2011. The Moon moved ‘up’ since 2007. Between2009 and 2014 the progressed Moon was OOB. On the day of his arrest in 2011 the progressed Moon in the 6^th degree of Cancer (28d8N) moved down again and right now, the progressed Moon is ‘in bounds’ again. Just like in the Lance Armstrong case, the 4 years before the top level of declination of the progressed Moon seem to the most prosperous of them all.

3. HILLARY

Hillary Clinton wants to be the next president in 2016. That is when her progressed Moon is at a low degree of declination, South. During the Lewinsky affair, when she was First Lady, she had the OOB progressed Moon on a high degree South.

It is still uncertain if she will ever have such a position again. But the transits and progressions of November 2016 are:

1.    Transit Jupiter square midpoint Sun/Moon

2.    Transit Jupiter square progressed Sun

3.   Progressed Sun conjunct natal Sun/Mooon

4.   Transit Jupiter square her Mercury

5.   Progressed Sun conjunct Mercury

3x Jupiter, the planet of successes.

So we will have to wait and see who wins: Jupiter or the declination of the progressed Moon.

4. TRUMP

Donald Trump’s progressed Moon is OOB and will be over the top in November 2016. Some of his party members think he is over the top already:). Meanwhile, he is doing well in the polls.

  

5. JK ROWLING

J.K. Rowling invented Harry Potter in 1990. In 1997, 4 years before the top level of the OOB progressed Moon, she found a publisher.  (Note: don’t use the ASC and MC positions as this is a guess chart).

6. LE PEN

Jean-Marie le Pen was thrown out of his own party now that the progressed Moon is close to zero degrees in declination.

7. JFK

John F. Kennedy was murdered on  November 22, 1963. That was when the progressed OOB Moon was not yet at the highest possible level, but in the 25th degree (he was born with a Moon in the 1^ste degree N). So, he was in his best years when someone ended his life suddenly, with transit Uranus conjunct progressed Midheaven.

! Many VIPs never had an OOB Moon (like Bono, Bill Cosby, Cliff Richard) and ever so many unknown people DO have OOB Progressed Moons.

8. MORE EXAMPLES

Read the story of Kurt Cobain, who died only 4 months after the moment that the progressed OOB Moon reached a 27d48 top level.

http://www.forrestastrology.com/resources/articles/general-astrology/215-the-out-of-bounds-moon.

Other examples of Steven Forrest: Yuri Gagarin (astronaut, progressed Moon OOB in space), Martin Luther King…

CONCLUSION

Progressed Moon OOB can represent a temporary top level that may be lost when the Moon goes on her way down again, especially when difficult aspects in the progressed chart, by transit or in the natal chart indicate this possibility. Every progressed OOB Moon seems to lift your social level with a number of risks. But don’t you worry: you can rise high and fall deep without an OOB Moon as wellJ! The progressed Moon OOB is one of more indications that it takes to mirror a special period and has to be considered with the circumstances and the natal and progressed chart in mind.  The positive side of the progressed Moon OOB is the chance to reach above yourself and your situation. The negative side is alienation. The astronaut in space is a nice example of that.

The 4 years before the top level of the OOB Moon seem to be the best social years, while the 1ste year after is the most vulnerable year. DSK was arrested, Kurt Cobain died, JK Rowling wrote on and on until the Moon was at almost zero degrees. Then she paused…

The progressed OOB Moon is not in control. John F. Kennedy died in the best years of his life. Maybe because he went ‘too far’ in the eyes of his enemies?

And how about Jean-Marie le Pen’s zero degree Progressed Moon? Maybe that is food for the next post!

Question: ever experienced an OOB Progressed Moon? And what happened? Feel free to share your examples.

PS To complete this study, I’ll have to check examples with top level Progressed Moon IN Bounds periods to see if there is a similar effect…

The 12th house boarding school in Paris Jackson's chart

A few years ago I payed attention to Paris Jackson's dramatic chart and now that I read in the papers that her stay in a clinic probably will be prolonged for years, I had a look at the progressions, transits and natal of the child that lived with late Michael Jackson and doesn't even know who her biological father is.  She tried to commit suicide earlier this year and is now living in a therapeutic boarding school for some time. Does her chart show this? Yes, it does, certainly given her extraordinary circumstances.

Here is the chart (click to enlarge):

ISSUES IN HER NATAL CHART
The combination of Mars-Saturn-Pluto (Mars tightly conjunct Saturn in 12 and sesquiquadrate Pluto) in the 8th house is a strong indication for the theme of untimely death and a danger for taking dramatic steps. This combination is dangerous. See the examples: http://astropost.blogspot.nl/search/label/Mars%20Saturn%20Pluto

After she tried to take her life, I mentioned the importance of this combination and concluded: 

So, it is important to watch her carefully. She tends to drastic measures. 

And

Moon inconjunct Uranus is the key to exceptional overreacting.

There is more about the Moon inconjunct Uranus. Moon inconjunct Uranus is also pointing at not being like the rest of the family (read this...). I think it also refers to alienation. In the case of Paris Jackson the mother was out of sight for years and the biological father is unknown. As an orphan she is now living far away from what she used to see as her family. This aspect must be harder for a Moon in Cancer with the need to belong and feel close.

DEATH OF FATHER 
The death of her father had great impact: http://astropost.blogspot.nl/2009/07/someone-pointed-at-post-on-astrologie.html and happened when
a. transit Saturn conjunct progressed ruler 8th house: death (8) of a parent (Saturn).
b. solar return Mars opposition Saturn on Midheaven (repeating her natal Mars-Saturn)
c. progressed Midheaven changing sign

UPCOMING TRANSITS AND PROGRESSIONS 
1. Uranus-Pluto transits
Her natal Moon is at 10.66 Cancer. Her Sun is at 13.61 Aries. Mercury and MC are in the 19th of Aries and Capricorn. 
With transit Uranus and transit Pluto hitting those degrees in the next years. First the Moon (again), then the Sun and later Mercury and Midheaven. There is also transit Uranus conjunct her Ascendant in May 2018, there is indeed a continuum of nervous challenges to be expected. 

2. Progressed sun changing sign and later square Neptune
Her progressed Sun is at 28d59 Aries, moving to the next sign (Taurus), where the first important aspect will be the square with Neptune. When the progressed sun sign changes, life style changes, life itself changes, there are new prospects and with that: YOU change. It won't be easy in the next years, because Neptune confuses. With progressed MC conjunct Neptune she got out of the eyes of the public and with progressed Sun square Neptune it will be hard to fight disillusions and uncertainty. There is a sent of isolation with Neptune. As this all happens in the important period of the teenage years, the impact is enormous. 

3. Right now progressed Moon in 10 in Capricorn is almost exactly square her natal Saturn (and that doesn't sound like being happy now). There may be even more concern for how and what she feels.

There happens to be a range of more than average changes, challenges and difficulties. 
Nice girls shouldn't have to be sad for so long...

There is a lot of 12th house and Neptune in her chart. The classical idea of the 12th house includes asylums, clinics and other places of seclusion. The planets in her 12th house, the elevated ruler 12 Neptune and the upcoming square of progressed Sun with Neptune tell us about privacy and isolation.

A therapeutic isolated boarding school is very much in line with the 12th house and Neptune and seems to be a good place behind the scenes (and maybe screens:)  to be right now.  Hopefully one day she will be able to deal with "life" again. She got an important Jupiter and Venus to help her see the bright sides!

Transit Saturn, Transit Neptune, NSA and Obama

Here is the chart (natal, transits and progressions) of Barack Obama and what do you see?

natal-t&p-october2013

Transit Saturn is square his Sun. 
Transit Saturn is in the ninth house (the house of 'abroad')
Saturn rules the 12th and is in the 12th house of secrets and the media
Sun rules the 7th house of 'them' and allies.

Perfect description of the present situation (given the circumstances). Allies like Angela Merkel are angry about the NSA spying on them. Obama said that he didn't know. Now the papers say he did ( http://www.dw.de/new-media-report-suggests-obama-knew-nsa-spied-on-merkel/a-17185662 ) Transit Saturn square Sun makes you face mistakes.

Transit Neptune inconjunct Mercury adds confusion.
Transit Neptune inconjunct his Mercury is a bad sign if you want others to believe what you say. Mistaken words, unclear statements, gossip and hiding facts work against you when Neptune comes along. Neptune is the symbol of mist, fantasy and all that is hidden and fake. It seems that those who work in or with the NSA can't stop leaking. And leakage is Neptune, the in conjunction is lack of balance and possible loss, Mercury is about KNOWING.

Is that enough to illustrate the situation? There is more if you want it. The progressed Moon conjunct cusp III, entering the 3rd house of communications, on her way to a quindecile with transit Saturn, promises worries ahead and a focus on communications. There is a lot of repairing to do in the next days and weeks.

It would be very bad if the progressed Sun didn't trine the Moon and if progressed Venus didn't square natal Moon. The moon is the symbol of popularity and Venus-Moon represents the need to be loved and all that eases feelings. Germany and the USA aren't enemies.

The NSA-revelations in a period of Saturn-Sun and Mercury-Neptune are difficult to deal with. Barack Obama is still an ally and a friend. Maybe this bad moment has a feel-good-ending, anyway? But not after a dramatic change in Angela's opinions, I guess, because transit Pluto and transit Uranus (the combination of revolutionary change, revolt and nervous stress) are making hard aspects with her Mercury.

Barack Obama and Angela Merkel ( Hamburg, 17 juli 1954 ) share an aspect (more on sharing...). Both have a difficult connection between Sun and Neptune. Being an idol and having to deal with the media isn't always easy and they both know it. They also share idealism or beliefs. Nevertheless: sharing Sun-Neptune doesn't mean everlasting sympathy. Both have a square between Sun and Neptune. This hard aspect, in the end, mirrors disappointment.

Sun and Neptune shared in aspect gives you shared ideals, dreams and faith or even a shared idol! But with hard aspects you might share the same disillusions as well or this relationship is disillusive. Cooperating could work out best in an asylum or in a non-profit organization where they can help others, and each other.

Another possible combination is between enemies and with Sun in hard aspect with Neptune shared. Ideology stand between you as was the case with the murderer of director Theo van Gogh who shared Sun square Neptune.

Bob Geldof and a lot of Uranus

Today the management of Bob Geldof cancelled performances in small towns in my country because of lack of interest (not enough tickets sold). That is interesting! Look at the chart. Here is a Sun-Uranus aspect working again! Uranus is the symbol of sudden changes, sometimes disturbing, sometimes exciting. The houses involved are 2 and 8 (the money axis).

Click to get a larger picture...

Transit Saturn (8 Scorpio) is sesquisquare Progressed Moon (23.6 Pisces) in the second house (worry)

Transit Uranus (ruler 2) is opposition Sun (shock, surprise, incident)

Transit Uranus is also sesquisquare AC/MC midpoint (fundamental changes)

Progressed Sun is inconjunct Uranus (and this aspect will be more and more important; a period of life with unbalancing changes)

The fact that the natal chart is Sun square Uranus, increases the importance of the aspects between Sun and Uranus right now (T Uranus 180 Sun and 135 AC/MC, P Sun 150 Uranus). There is a lot of Uranus and what happens here seems relevant for the house that Uranus rules (the second house, with Aquarius on the cusp). The second house is the house of income and public (V) appearances (of X). The axis 2-8 is the money axis. No show, no income, surprise! 

The other day I reported about a nasty hot water incident with Transit Uranus opposition Sun. No hot water here (I hope), but a public cold shower, working both ways. His fans are not pleased...and find it arrogant.

On the other hand there is the news that Bob Geldof will be granted the Freedom of the City of London prize, but not for the music. It will be granted for what he did, for example for Live Aid, on September 16. It is not the first time that he's being honored. See http://www.canterburytimes.co.uk/Bob-Geldof-granted-Freedom-City-London/story-19772612-detail/story.html

Transit Uranus sees to it that your name is being mentioned (in the papers, if you are famous enough): you are news. Bob Geldof is also news because he told the press that next year he will be a rock star in space! That is extra-ordinary, exciting and so: very Uranus! So much more than rocking in Purmerend or Dordrecht! I hope that he left the Uranus warnings safely behind when he goes up.

TALENT

Just for the record:

Venus (ruler Libra Midheaven) is square Moon and semi square Neptune.  The Moon is novile Midheaven.

That is a complete astrological pattern of artistic talents, like the majority of artist’s charts have (see Art&Astrology).
