When I looked at Donald Trump’s chances of winning the presidency in 2020, I noticed an unusual aspect in synastry: his progressed Mars was approaching a conjunction with the U.S. progressed Mars. At over 6 degrees apart, I didn’t consider it. But time has passed and I was reminded of this combination when Trump announced on August 8th that the FBI had raided his Mar-a-Lago home. It looked to me like a fight. | Karen Christino

Former president Donald Trump was campaigning and hoping for a comeback win after leaving office nearly four years earlier. He became the victim of a failed assassination attempt and was superficially wounded. We can say exactly the same of Theodore Roosevelt 112 years before. Roosevelt was shot in Milwaukee and it seemed an odd synchronicity that Trump would soon address the Republican convention in Milwaukee, too. What similarities are there in the horoscopes? | Karen Christino
Voter turnout refers to the proportion of eligible voters who cast a ballot in an election. Women have registered and voted at higher rates than men in every presidential election since 1980, with the turnout gap between women and men growing slightly larger with each successive presidential election.
