internet astrologer predicts next US president after prophesying the exact date of Biden's exit
she saw Donald Trump would be the next president of the USA because of his strong Sun sign.

Who is Amy Tripp?

From NDTV:

Amy Tripp is an astrologer and a licensed therapist. According to her   website , she has a Master's degree in Social Work from New York University and has studied and qualified as an ISAR (International Society of Astrological Research) certified astrologer. She actively engages in professional organisations such as NCGR (National Council for Geocosmic Research) and AFA (American Federation of Astrologers). 

I give her a C- or maybe a B+. Her predictions re: timing are very good. However predicting Trump will be the next president "because he has a strong Sun sign" isn't necessarily accurate IMO. Why? Because lots of people have strong Sun signs-- they all aren't going to be the next president!


S E E D E D   C O N T E N T


Astrologer, Amy Tripp prophesied the exact date  US President   Joe Biden  will turn cut his election campaign short and now has a new future to tell. The clairvoyant said she saw  Donald Trump  would be the next president of the USA because of his strong Sun sign. She also predicted that an assassination attempt on Trump was just the beginning and there might be more “crazy things to come” in the former’s near future.

 Tripp said, “Uranus is on his [Trump] mid-heaven which shows … unpredictability with his career and goals.”

 On August 11, 2020, Tripp predicted in a post on the microblogging platform that Vice President Kamala Harris will run for the presidency in 2024. She analysed, “A moon-Pluto connection signals a strong woman,” as the reason for her prediction about Harris.

She was also very determined that the 59-year-old would win the nomination because she is currently enjoying the return of the second Saturn. She said, “It’s a time when if you’ve been putting in the work since the first Saturn return at 30 you’re rewarded … usually there’s a [professional] advancement or you gain authority.”

Tripp who has a master's in social work also predicted August as a rocky month for the US and like to witness more political unrest and violence. She said, “The US is still in its Pluto return, which is about bringing things to light and exposing things. The last time the US had a Pluto return was the Revolutionary War.”

I don't know-- just googled to find her chart but couldn't find it. 

Usually celebrities' charts are easy to find on the Internet but I guess she's not famous enough.

(Often Astrologers charts have a prominent Uranus as uranus "rules" Astrology).

Buzz- here's something that might interest you: A prominent Leo in a chart often indicates the person is or will be an actor or a teacher.

(Uranus often indicates non-conformist, often very creative. Also networking-- both people networking as well as "computer networking" i.e. Internet. Uranus often likes and is proficient with technology (computer Geek).

My first partner when I went out on my own in my profession, no longer working as an employee, was a Taurus, so I do have some familiarity with the traits, but we did get along well together.  We also incorporated a company for whatever enterprises we ventured into, such as a Mexican food takeout restaurant (but Mexican food was not known much in Toronto back then so it failed), calling our company Aquataurus Corporation Limited.  It no longer exists, but I just did a search and discovered that quite a few others have used the name Aquataurus for their corporations.

I know I'm Aquarius, not sure of anything else because I don't know the time of my birth, only the date and location. 

Many people are not aware of this, but there are ways to do a fairly accurate chart without the time. The best way is a process called "birthtime rectification". Its a fairly long arduous process. 

There are basically three things you have to know interpret a chart:

1. What signs are the planets in?

2. What are the angles between the planets?

3. What houses are the planets in? (And that also means the rising sign.

Without the birth time you can determine the first two--- you'll just not know the houses.

Often people are surprised to learn that there is not just one type of Astrology, but rather several. I mostly use the traditional Western system, and know a little Vedic (traditional Hindu). And I know very little Arabic/Persian or Chinese.

(And of course indigenous peoples have their own systems. (I've heard the Incan was one of the most sophisticated but know next to nothing about it.

In Western Astrology (actually in all Western mysticism, including Tarot, etc) everything is classified as one of four elements. Here are the 4 elements along with their Jungian correspondences:

1. Earth (Sensing)

2, Fire (Intuiting)

3. Air (Thinking)

4. Water (Feeling i.e. "emotions")

Aquarius is Air (not water). So part of your personality is tilted towards Thinking.

Air is Thinking and communication-- actually a good sign for a lawyer.

Of course without seeing your entire chart we can't know which of the four elements are dominant-- or lacking.

Each planet is in one of the four elements. In addition, each sign has its own individual traits.

Depending upon the rest of your chart, Aquarians are often non-conformists to some degree. They might tend to look at things differently than other people-- which means they are often very creative.

They tend to be very principled-- and tend to stick to their principles.

They can have a tendency to be stubborn at times (which can be positive or negative depending upon the rest of their chart).

They can be big networkers-- with groups of people or computer networks. Depending on the rest of their chart, they might be "good with computers".

Aquarius is also associated with "surprises"-- they may occasionallly surprise you....

They are often more interested in the new-- modern ideas  and things-- rather than old-fashioned.

Taurus here.    Surprising I know.

Some Astrologers "turn up their nose" at what they call "Sun sign Astrology"-- that is doing Astrology based solely on your Sun sign-- we prefer to use all ten "Planets". (Plus 2 "points"-- the Ascendant or Rising sign and the MC or Midheaven).

That being said, Taurus is a part of the total picture. Depending upon the rest of your chart, your Taurus energy may or may not manifest to varying degrees. 

Depending upon the rest of your chart, Taurus is usually fairly practical. Of the 4 elements its an Earth element-- that means "Sensing". The senses are important to Taurus-- physical sensations, seeing, hearing, touch, smelling taste, etc.

Taurus likes quality-- things that feel good to the touch-- quality leather, silk, etc. (They usually dislike synthetics, polyester, etc). Fine woods-- no plastic! They appreciate fine quality workmanship. The sense of vision. Taurus like things that are visually pleasing-- they often appreciate fine art-- might be artists themselves.

The sense of hearing--  they usually appreciate good music, many play an instrument themselves. 

Signs rule body parts-- Taurus rules the Throat-- some Taurus might be singers.

Taurus is the bull. Think of them enjoying a leisurely time on a nice sunny day, tranquilly walking along eating the grass. They are generally calm and slow to anger. (But when a bull gets really anger-- watch out!)

Taurus also rules the stomach-- usually appreciate really good food. (May like to cook).

Taurus is often associated with food in one way or another. (The other sign I associate with some aspect of food is Cancer).

Foreign food --in fact foreign anything-- is often associated with Sagittarius. so either that doesn't apply here or you have Sag somewhere in your chart.

Actually you're not living in the country not of your birth.

The Arabic/Persian relies a bit more of the positions of stars than planets. it is usually recognizable by the "weird" names of stars-- they're obviously not based on English (or Latin based, Germanic, or Slavic names). Here are the Persian names of stars-- they seem a bit "strange" to the western ear:

Aldebaran, Regulus, Antares, Formalhaut, Pleides, Casseopeia, Betelgeuse, etc. (Actually IIRC some of these may be inflenced by the ancient Greeks)

But I'm doing what a lot of trader's are doing-- "on paper" I'm constructing two stock portfolios. A Trump Portfolio and a Harris Portfolio. (Which types of stocks will go up if each wins). Then when I have more of a clear idea who will win I buy more stocks in one portfolio and short those in the other).

Some are obvious. "Green energy" stocks go up if Harris wins, down if Trump wins. Defense may actually goe down if Trump wins as he opposes a robust defense (He wants a weak NATO). Ironically, oil probably goes down if Trump wins. Etc

IMO opinion the electoral college system being more important than a national majority reflects the unique form of American democracy, but I don't think other democracies (such as Canada) consider it to be valid.  I guess it reflects the individual uniqueness of the individual States that unite only for certain purposes, but so do provinces in Canada, but when requiring a FEDERAL administration having a federal majority rule seems correct to me rather than having a possible tail waving the dog situation.

There are historical reasons why it developed. 

But we are no longer living in the late 1700's! The Electoral College system is undemocratic and should be abolished,

I had always thought that to be a bit strange. because I always thought that you should be "proud" of something you accomplished. 

I didn't work hard to be an American. In fact I had nothing to do with that.

I was born an American because my parents happened to live here at the time of my birth-- why should I get credit for that?

In some ways Astrology is like ay other professions. Abilities are on a "Bell Curve". At one end there are those who are fairly incompetent-- they shouldn't be practicing the craft. On the other extremes are true geniuses (they are so amazing they charge what they want0--0 most of use couldn't afford their services).

The first guy that taught me Astrology was a "market timer" (stock market). He was an Astrologer .That year he was rated #1 in the world by Hulbert's Timer Digest. (He wasn't in future years). Since then I IIRC there has never been another Astrologer market timer in the top rankings.

Over the years my record has become significantly better than 50%-- and its been quite lucrative.

(I've learned a lot about predictions-- that's a lot of what I do all day at work!).

Sure, in some cases it is clearly either true or false. For example a coin toss is either heads or tails-- there's no middle ground. (Well-- unless the tosser is so good at telekinesis that they can make it land on its edge and remain up! BTW I've seen a few people do stuff like that-- but admittedly that's so rare its not relevant here).

That sort of stuff used to be referred to as a form of "ESP" ("Extra Sensory Perception") AKA "Psychic Powers".

What partially informed people get wrong about that is that there no magic inherent in goat entrails or bones--- it can be done using any object. Crystal balls are fun, etc.  (When using objects for divination personally I prefer using tarot cards).

However it can be done without using any paraphrenalia-- a good psychic doesn't need to use any of that stuff.

A while back I had a Tarot reading (by someone I didn't know). It was fair-- not great. Afterwards we got to talking. She told me she doesn't actually read the cards and doesn't need the. She only uses then for the benefit of the client. (She not an Astrologer, and I suppose could be classified [partially] as a Tarot reader-- or more accurately as a regular 'ole psychic. Most psychics don't know much Astrology if any-- different method).

Actually that's not entirely accurate-- i should've said that many psychics don't know much about Astrology-- because many do, and many don't.

And while many Astrologers claim that's is a fair lt rigid, defined system, some Astrologers don't use potential psychic powers.

Although the good ones do both. First they read the chart literally-- then they "tune in" intuitively.

You must be thinking of Copernicus-- and his conflict with the Church?

In “On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres,” Copernicus’ groundbreaking argument that Earth and the planets revolve around the sun led him to make a number of other major astronomical discoveries.

For decades, “On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres” remained unknown to all but the most sophisticated astronomers, and most of these men, while admiring some of Copernicus’ arguments, rejected his heliocentric basis.

One of those critics was   Martin Luther , the infamous   Vatican   critic who was one of the founders of the   Reformation . Luther stated that “This fool wishes to reverse the entire science of astronomy; but sacred Scripture tells us that Joshua commanded the Sun to stand still, and not the Earth.” The Vatican did eventually ban “On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres” in 1616.

It was not until the early 17th century that   Galileo   and Johannes Kepler developed and popularized the Copernican theory, which for Galileo resulted in a trial and conviction for heresy. Following   Isaac Newton ’s work in celestial mechanics in the late 17th century, acceptance of the Copernican theory spread rapidly in non-Catholic countries, and by the late 18th century the Copernican view of the solar system was almost universally accepted.

But that's all "off topic"-- its Astronomy -- this discussion is about Astrology . Two very different things!

the sun is NOT in the center

Facts:

1. The Sun is probably not in the center of the Universe. (Of course in order to know that, we'd have to know where the center of the Universe is--which means knowing where the Universe ends.

(For some reason I have no intereest in pursuing that-- but if its important to you to know that then go ahead-- research away!)

2. The Sun is indeed the center of the Solar System-- the planets revolve around the Sun. Perhaps that's why its called" The Solar System"!

Most actors have similar experiences-- many have a case of "stage fright" before they go onstage or in front of a camera. (I've read interviews where even very famous, experienced actors even after many years. still get it).

Sometimes their consultants urge then to "act as if"-- even if they don't feel like it, do it anyway! (Most actors call it something different: "Fake it 'till you make it").
