While looking for Venus/Uranus interpretations relating to the combination
chart mentioned in another thread, I found reference to Obama's chart
which
sounds interesting.
<q>
Barack Obama's horoscope (August 4, 1961; Honolulu; time unknown)
synchronizes neatly with the U.S. national horoscope. Among the many close
contacts is his Neptune at 8º36' Scorpio, which is exactly, to-the-minute,
conjunct the U.S. Scorpio Ascendant. This link describes the vision that
he
espouses for Americans of all ethnic backgrounds, as he expresses in his
recently published book The Audacity of Hope.
Another connection is his natal Uranus, which opposes the U.S. Moon,
located
at 25º28' Aquarius. Here is where the excitement, the charisma, and the
sudden skyrocketing to fame can be seen. As discussed in this column
during
the last presidential campaign*, candidates must have extremely tight
connections to the U.S. Moon to ensure their popular approval and to get
elected.
Obama's progressed Venus, the planet directly associated with popularity,
is
near his natal Uranus, a dynamic combination that has electrified his
national following. In early 2008, at the height of the Democratic
primaries, Obama's progressed chart looks extremely favorable (progressed
Jupiter conjunct the U.S. Pluto, as his progressed Sun trines the U.S.
Pluto) for advancing his ambitions. Here is a rising star to watch.

The fact that Obama's chart is closely interconnected with the US chart is
certainly significant, in IMO.
In particular his natal Neptune, conj. with the US Scorpio asc. as
explained
in the quote above, is significant IMHO. It depends much on Neptune role
in
his natal chart how it will affect the US Ascendant. What does his Neptune
stand for ? Is it a search for spirituality, religion, world peace - any
such concepts - or is it something rather veering toward the uncertain,
even
deception ?
His Uranus opposed to the US Moon should not be disregarded either, it
would
seem to me. Is it a close opposition ?
