The question is: Has he used them up?
Donald Trump's astrological chart is marked by both significant strengths and vulnerabilities, with an unusual planetary arrangement that has facilitated numerous comebacks throughout his career.

Notably, the Moon, located in the 4th house Scorpio and ruling the 12th house, indicates a propensity for financial losses, particularly in real estate, despite building a substantial empire in that sector. Trump's ability to rebound from financial downturns may be attributed to early life lessons in handling loss (Venus daśā from 1955 to 1975), alongside the strategic placement of Mars in his ascendant and as the ruler of his 4th house Scorpio, enhancing his resilience and real estate fortune.
However, Trump's chart and timeline suggests potential challenges in the coming years.
Born just before a total lunar eclipse with a conjunction of the Sun with the North Node (Rahu) and Uranus, his life has been characterized by extreme fluctuations and a quest for validation, possibly stemming from early experiences of neglect from his mother and father (South Node Ketu in the 4th).
The presence of Kalamrita Yoga in his birth chart, with all planets positioned on one side of the Lunar Nodes, further emphasizes a life of significant ups and downs, a pattern evident in his business ventures and political career.
As the 2024 election approaches, Trump faces critical tests that may echo the sense of rejection he experienced in childhood. With the activation of Ketu daśā, the significator of losses, along with the activation of the 12th house Cancer in his birth chart, the financial losses he is facing are obvious. But these periods offer complex challenges besides, suggesting a pivotal moment in his ongoing quest for recognition.
Trump’s Timeline
Donald Trump is navigating a challenging Ketu 'sub-period' in 2024, where feelings of rejection are high. Ketu periods are characterized by impulsive reactions and decision-making.
Trump is now facing unprecedented legal challenges while simultaneously running for presidential office, a situation that underscores his need to win or face jail time.
In January 2023, Trump was ordered to pay $83.3 million for defamation, highlighting the influence of transiting Ketu connecting with his natal Jupiter in his 2nd house of wealth. On February 16, he was ordered to pay $350m in a financial fraud case.
Ketu can bring back mistakes from the past, affecting his financial status and public image.
Apart from his legal and financial woes, the 2024 election appears complex for any candidate, with astrological indicators suggesting the winner will face significant obstacles post-election.
An analysis of Trump's family's astrological charts indicates that all of them are entering a Ketu sub-periods around 2025, hinting at a shared experience of loss. Yet Trump's broader astrological period is under the influence of Jupiter, indicating a mix of financial blessings, too.
Trump will enter a Venus sub-period or bhukti from September 2024 until May 2027.
What is Venus likely to bring? Well, we can look and see what previous Venus periods brought him to get the general gist.
His Venus major period, from 1955 to 1975, included lessons in secret negotiations and financial losses from his father's dealings with New York State, mirroring his own financial issues currently. This was important period that shaped his own approach to business.
Overall, Venus sub-periods have brought many financial challenges for Trump, including the bankruptcy of the ‘Trump Taj Mahal’ in 1991. It's likely he will face bankrupcy yet again. How many lives is that now?!
Trump's Leo rising, with Mars in the ascendant, underscores his strategic risk-taking in building his empire and brand. Yet, the upcoming Venus sub-period, coinciding with the 2024 election, poses significant risks, potentially impacting not just his financial empire but also his freedom, illustrating the high stakes of his current political and legal battles.
His Cancer period from 2018 to 2026 enters its final phase from October 2023 to June 2026, highlighting his 12th house of losses and even the possibility of serving a prison sentence. The specific sub-period to watch is Cancer-Cancer, beginning October 2025. This is also the time of year when the Sun, his ruler, slips into sidereal Libra, its sign of debilitation every year. When factors such as these are compounded, having your ruler in a weak position leading to the election does not bode well for him.
Yet there is one particular favourable transit for Trump during the election: Jupiter transits his 10th house (Taurus) from May 2024 to May 2025, suggesting a career boost. Yet another lifeline!
Yet still, Uranus' simultaneous entrance into his 10th house by June 2024 introduces unpredictability, emphasizing that the election will likely defy conventions.
The U.S. is poised for significant astrological shifts in July 2024. The 1776 Independence chart shifts from a Rahu-Saturn to a Rahu-Mercury period, indicating a faster pace and potential changes in the presidential candidates in the summer. This transition may disadvantage Joe Biden, aligning with a more dynamic, unpredictable political climate that could introduce additional candidates beyond the current frontrunners.
Rahu-Mercury period, characterized by Mercury's retrograde and conjunction with Rahu in the U.S. chart, could blur the lines between truth and fiction even more, challenging legal integrity.
Trump, with his strong Mercury placement, aligns with this Mercurial environment more than Biden, with Mercury strongly positioned in his 11th house Gemini.
The aftermath of the November 2024 election, with Mars retrograding into 2025, suggests a tumultuous time for U.S. politics, potentially escalating into violence, no matter the eventual winner.
This period reaffirms a prediction I made some 10 years ago of civil unrest in the U.S., aligning with its Rahu period from 2016 and 2034.
As the political landscape evolves, particularly after July 2024, the election's direction and candidates may shift significantly, with Trump's fate in this uncertain environment yet to be determined.
