Kamala Harris - Next US VP??

Kamala Harris

I recently read that Kamala Harris was elected as a running mate i.e. as a vice presidential candidate for the upcoming US elections. A lady that too of Indian origin running for the coveted post aroused my interest and so decided to analyse it through the progressed charts, return charts(interestingly she experienced her nodal return very recently) and also through the Kaal Chakra Dasha system (separate article at a later date).

She has Gemini rising with North node and part of Fortuna conjuct the rising point. Hers is a full moon birth with natal Sun and Saturn involved in a trine aspect hinting at major responsibilities in the lifetime. Interestingly Saturn-the 8^th lord of major transformations is the most elevated planet.

The progressed chart has 11 Leo rising, its lord Sun tenanting the 5^th H and is disposed by Jupiter which is in the 10^th H. Further this Sun is involved in a sesquare aspect with the Moon (natal 8^th lord) –the most elevated planet which gives company to this Jupiter. This talks of her journey on an unknown territory that involves the common masses. Saturn has reached Anaretic degrees hinting at life changing moments particularly as regards to career and social standing and Mercury-the natal Ascendant lord though retrograde is on starting degrees of a cardinal sign and makes a Sextile aspect with this Saturn thus signalling new beginnings. Further she is undergoing the progressed gibbous moon phase thus opening new vistas. Having faced the challenge during the first quarter and discovered her hidden strength, she seem to have set her sights higher than before. Many new possibilities present themselves which has actually manifested in her case.

The progressed Sun (progressed Ascendant lord) is right on 7^th cusp(public life) and has separated from the South Node. It is involved in a quincunx aspect with the natal 7^th lord Jupiter suggesting various modifications to her lifestyle in the current scenario. Interestingly a kite aspect has got activated between Progressed Jupiter, natal Venus, transit Jupiter and Neptune. This shows a transition from a scripted life to a life controlled by fate. The planets involved –Venus, Jupiter and Neptune harmoniously blend with each other’s energies. Venus- what one values, Jupiter-how one manages to grow and expand what we value and Neptune- metamorphosis and a creative change.

The solar return chart has 6^th H rising and its lord Jupiter is tucked away safely in the 2^nd H of self-esteem. It is disposed by Saturn which is strong being in own sign. Sun is very strong being on 11^th cusp and it is disposed by the most elevated although debilitated Venus. A cardinal cross in angular houses is activated between the nodes, Moon, Venus and Neptune. Thus this is a very dynamic year promising major changes in personal and public life.

A critical and detailed analysis of her chart hints at major changes in her public life and points more towards success in bagging the coveted post of the Vice President of United States. Though this certainly doesn’t seem to be a cake walk.
