  1. I don’t mean to flood this “Questions & Comments” thread with comments about Kamala Harris and the election. However, I just wanted to share one more bit and then I’ll stop.

    In New Hampshire, there are few towns near the border with Québec, Canada that have an interesting tradition of always voting at midnight on the day of an election. These small, sparsely populated towns are: Dixville Notch, Hart’s Location, and Millsfield. I’m not sure how or why the tradition of midnight voting came about in these 3 New Hampshire towns but they’ve been doing this since 1960. Many people treat these 3 New Hampshire towns as an “omen” of where the general presidential election might be headed.

    Anyway, at 12:00 AM today, a total of 6 people in Dixville Notch cast their votes – none of the 6 voters were registered Democrats (some were Republicans and I think some were Independents). All 6 of those voters had voted for Nikki Hayley in the Republican Party Presidential Primary earlier this year.

    As it turns out, 3 of the 6 voters voted for Donald Trump while the other 3 voted for Kamala Harris. In other words, it was an even 50%.

    Again, while all of this is anecdotal (because there is no proof or empirical data that supports the notion that how these small New Hampshire towns vote is how the rest of the country will vote), It can be a fun superstition to entertain. Who knows? Maybe Kamala Harris really is getting a lot of the Nikki Hayley voters, Independents, and some Republicans who are so exasperated with Donald Trump.

    • Hah, I have been pondering on Kamala’s Jupiter which catches a lucky Uranus nudge in the final days of this month into December – it might push her over the line but as said before it also tugs on other less desirable influences. At this stage best wait and see – though it could be many days before there is a definite result.

      • Probably apropos of nothing, but noticed that Obama was first elected on a Capricorn Moon, with Pluto about to ingress into Capricorn. Today is another Capricorn Moon with Pluto two weeks shy of a final exit out of Capricorn.

    • it is a very nervous but exciting time for the country. normally do not vote in presidential elections but this one was easy to pick.

        • @ Roderick,

          I live in North Florida and I’m pleasantly surprised by strong support I’m seeing for Kamala Harris up here. I’ve met people I never would’ve expected who are supporting her. I’m seeing yard signs, bumper stickers, flags, etc with the Harris / Walz logo on them all over the place.

          Of course, I know all of this is anecdotal. I do live in Jacksonville (and Duval County is a “swing county” that’s been trending more Democrat in recent years). North Florida is very conservative and Kamala Harris is only slated to win Gadsden, Leon, Alachua, and possibly Duval (my county) counties.

          Maybe Amendment 4 (which is about abortion) will help Kamala Harris pull off an upset victory here in Florida this year…but then, maybe not.

          I believe Kamala Harris will win the general election…but I don’t put much stock into her winning Florida at all.

    • @ Sheila,

      A friend living in Tamil Nadu, India shared this lovely Tamil Language blessing to offer Kamala Harris today:

      “உங்கள் மென்மையான வார்த்தை, உங்கள் கனிவான தோற்றம் & உங்கள் அன்பான புன்னகை அதிசயங்களையும் அற்புதங்களையும் செய்யும்!”

      Translation:

      “Your gentle & soft-spoken word, your kind & empathetic look and your friendly & loving smile shall work wonders & miracles!”

      Also, in Hinduism, I believe the G-ddess Durga represents protection and strength. So, I hope she will watch over Kamala Harris and Tim Walz today as our nation votes.

    • @ Sheila,

      I noticed that Saturn is in Pisces right now. I discussed this with my astrology teacher and she and I noticed that this has historically tied well with Democratic Party victories.

      Also, Saturn is trining the the Sun right now – the party that occupies the White House (in the case, the Democratic Party) during this aspect has often gone onto winning reelection.

      Last but not least, one of the other astrology students in my group mentioned that since Venus sextiles Mercury and Saturn sextiles Mercury, these aspects could be a good stability, international relations, foreign policy, diplomacy, etc. If Harris wins today, it would makes sense given that much of the Global North and the West will breathe a collective sigh of relief and will feel that a sane, competent, and intelligent person will be leading a country that has over 5,000 plus nuclear weapons and the most powerful military on earth.

  2. Hello Marjorie. I have solar arc Pluto (Scorpio 4th) square Saturn ( Aquarius 6th) entering (11/2). What is your interpretation of this, and is it a 12 month influence (6 months applying and 6 months separating)? Thanks:)
