Early standouts from the first debate of the 2020 Democratic presidential primary with the first 10 candidates jousting for the eventual prize appear to have been Cory Booker, Julian Castro and Amy Klobuchar.
Julian Castro, 16 September 1974 2.40 am (memory) San Antonio, Texas, is a New Moon in Virgo with a ferociously determined Mars Pluto in Libra. He’ll have highs and lows later this year with a lucky-break Solar Arc Jupiter opposition his Uranus in four months’ time, but also a couple of Neptune sinkers. Into 2020 he has tr Pluto conjunct his Jupiter/Neptune midpoint which is generally a no-no for elections – losses, plans not working out.
Cory Booker, 27 April 1969 1.10 am (memory) Washington, DC, is a Sun Taurus conjunct Saturn with a heavyweight Jupiter Pluto plus Uranus and Virgo Moon all in the 8th – JFK and Merkel had/have full 8th houses. He’s not looking happy at all through this year with disastrous missteps and failure in October/November. He’ll bounce more enthusiastically from early 2020 onwards.
Amy Klobuchar, 25 May 1960 Plymouth, Minnesota, is a New Moon in Gemini with a confident Jupiter in Capricorn trine Pluto and a disciplined, hard-edged Saturn in Capricorn square Mars in Aries. She has some lift across the New Year and will be pushing confidently in 2020; but she’s got the loss-making tr Pluto conjunct her Mars/Neptune midpoint this year and next as well as the dashed-hopes tr Neptune conjunct her Sun/Jupiter through till late 2020 as well.
