Mike Pompeo – almost into the hot seat

    

 

Mike Pompeo looks set to be the next USA Secretary of State, perhaps reaching full confirmation by the end of this week. Which, if it goes to plan, means he’ll kick off on the Mars Pluto conjunction square Uranus – rolling-crises, high-risk, ruthless and/or acutely frustrating.  He’s at the Tea Party end of the Republicans, irked the Democrats with his comments on LGBT and Muslims and has been interventionist in foreign policy. Though he toned down the last to get the vote.

Born 30 December 1963 1.32pm Orange, California, he’s a Sun, Mercury, Mars in Capricorn; with Sun trine Uranus Pluto in Virgo and square Jupiter in pro-active Aries.  He’s also got a cool Saturn and Venus in Aquarius square Neptune, so suited to the shadowy, suspicious world of the CIA from whence he recently comes. Ambitious certainly and fairly hard-edged with Mars Mercury trine Pluto as well as a grandstander, his Pluto being in the 5th.

He’s not in his easiest year with tr Saturn conjunct his Sun in May and tr Pluto returning to conjunct his Mars across the summer and November/December which could block him up. He’s also got a Solar Arc Moon conjunct his Uranus exact in eight months’ time, which looks like an emotional shock of sorts or perhaps a rebellious fit.

He’s not entirely at ease with Trump given his Mars opposes Trump’s Saturn which is a gritty interface; and his Saturn opposes Trump’s Mars/Pluto midpoint.

That translates on the relationship chart into a serious-dislike composite Mars opposition Saturn Venus. It’ll only work if Pompeo submerges his ego to become a fawning courtier. Though it’ll get a considerable shake come July with tr Uranus conjunct the composite Venus and worse in 2019; with additional chills from tr Saturn sitting on their composite Mercury square Jupiter.
