"George W."

GW
President George W. Bush

(February 3, 2001) Some of my readers have asked that I write about Bush after the elections. In my Spring, 2000 article about the elections, I gave an analysis of Bush's personality in comparison to Al Gore's, in a competitive arena. That still stands. However, people's qualities change in context. So, let's look at these same qualities with Bush in a leadership role.

There is a theme in regard to President Bush's spirituality that I find interesting, and we are bound to see more of it soon. I should mention that positive qualities in one arena, can easily translate to negative qualities in another. On one hand, Bush's Cancer Sun in the 12th house speaks of a compassionate, family oriented man, someone who can step aside and let others do their part for the greater good, a deeply spiritual person. This is a President that relies on his faith and his feelings. On the other hand, he is likely to lead from the side lines and not be totally aware of everything going on in the White House. His partners have a spiritual, helping quality about them -- but by the same token, may be elusive about speaking the truth. Bush, as well, may be evasive when it comes to telling the truth. There is so much "good faith" being infused into the system that clear perception of the facts can become obscured.

When I look at President Bush's chart, I am reminded of his father's chart. I recall a comment made after Bush lost to Clinton, that Bush Sr. truly believed that he would be re-elected, and serve a second term. There was no reason for him to think otherwise, because everyone around him always gave him encouragement. They adored him. He realized too late that he was "living in a vacuum."

President Bush has a 12th House Sun. Challenging areas that may be blind spots are the impoverished, the needy, the ill, the institutionalized, and the incarcerated. There will be clamorous protest from minority groups disputing the election results. The threat of chemical warfare and Saddam Hussein will be a thorn in Bush's side. Since his chart reflects that of the nation, then we can all expect to be pulled in, as well.

A final point, President Bush's chart clearly indicates that he is likely to go down in history as a leader who built up the U.S. military behind-the-scenes. [9/15/2002 -- Bush Planned Iraq 'Regime Change' Before Becoming President].
