Andrew Gillum, Mayor of Talahassie, was chosen as the surprise Democratic nominee for Governor of Florida, running on a progressive ticket with little money.
Born 26 July 1979, the son of a construction worker and a bus driver, he started his political career after college. He’s a Sun, Mercury, Jupiter in Leo. With a talented Half Grand Sextile from a publicity-attracting Mars in Gemini opposition Neptune, sextile Jupiter in Leo sextile Pluto – confident, lucky, determined. His Saturn in hard-working Virgo is in an innovative sextile to Uranus and a hope-for-a-better-society square to Neptune.
He looks on a winning high, though fighting against frustrating and bitter opponents in September and October. But that disappears before the election in early November when he has a marginally disappointing tr Pluto trine his Mars/Neptune. Though he looks buoyant later in the month with tr Jupiter trine his Sun; and forging ahead in 2019/2020.
He’s up against Trumper Ron DeSantis, who has been vociferous in his criticism of Mueller and managed to play to his base by launching his campaign warning Florida voters to not “monkey this up” by supporting the African-American candidate.
Born 14 September 1978, he went to Yale and Harvard, then into the navy, serving at Guantanamo, and in Iraq as a legal adviser. He’s a Sun Virgo square Neptune; with Saturn Mercury in Virgo; and Jupiter in Leo square Mars in late Libra and Venus in Scorpio. He’s maybe got tr Neptune opposition his Sun/Saturn midpoint over the election, depending on his birth time – if a late day/night birth he may have gone through that in Sept/Oct. It’s not good news – panicky, uncertain, sagging. He looks upbeat in 2019/2020. Depends very much on birth times which we don’t know. His life is certainly changing in November with tr Uranus opposition his Solar Arc Sun.
