Venus in Sagittarius on Election Day 2024
by Jude Cowell
As a lifelong fan of Democracy and cheerleader for the continuation of our Republic as a sovereign nation, it isn't easy to admit that on Election Day 2024, Venus in Sagittarius is prepared to bestow the crown of victory upon the incumbent's rival, whomever she, he, or it may be. This unfortunate factoid is strongly suggested by Venus in Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius, for it is the sign of the stranger, the outsider, the foreigner (the placement of Venus in 2016). But note that Venus Cycle predictions have been accurate for most US presidential elections, although not for all, so that's something to keep in mind along with other cosmic predictors such as the New Moon Prior to the election. Plus, who would deny that cheating naturally interferes with election results in unpredictable ways.
Note: perhaps many readers know where I'm 'coming from' on such topics because, as I've previously shared, my uncles fought Nazis in WWII and I have Revolutionary War ancestors. From such shared pro-America sentiments, I surmise that none of my ancestors or family members could possibly have expected after all their sacrifices that America could be so viciously shoved toward totalitarianism and, for women, would be morphed into soul-denying handmaidenism by theocrats and dominionists with political power and Biblical law on their scheming minds. Such reforms would represent an anti-constitutional blending of Church and State which is not one of America's founding principles, as you well know. It would be an antithesis, in fact, and a total reversal of previous plans.
So! Prior to Election Day 2024, it may be worth considering a few things about Venus in Sagittarius, if that's okay with you, dear reader, with astrological Venus representing the attraction principle, and Sagittarius a mutable Fire sign. First, the mutable quality provides a measure of instability to the planet of relationships while denoting hypersentivity and a strong wishing power which may or not pan out in reality. Or if does pan out, the results may be temporary, even chaotic. And of course, Sagittarius and its opposite sign of Gemini have much to do with ethics, morals, and belief systems - and on a political level, with attempts to force them upon other people (as if morality or an uncluttered conscience can be legislated!). In other words, this placement of Venus indicates religious or ideological proselytizing, much of which is done through misinformation, aka, propaganda.
Reaching for Something Positive Here
These cosmic circumstances could be fortunate for incumbent candidates' victories since the confusion, recounts, and/or fraudulent activities in recent years surrounding US elections could turn out differently than a Sag Venus expects or prefers. (This would be on the presidential level, but may also affect down-ballot elections.) Plus, Blue Waves or Tsunamis of voters have been known to sway elections toward Democrats and, considering all the election 'preparations' such as voter suppression and voter roll purges and caging that Republicans have set in motion, I'm thinking that a Blue Tsunami may be the only factor that will make a large enough difference in 2024 for those of us who are determined to keep intact our Republic along with some measure of democratic governance.
In closing, we should also consider that a Sagittarian Venus tends to scatter her energies which suggests taking on too much at once. And if you've ever done that yourself, you know that multi-tasking means that nothing turns out as well as it could have, and that a possibility exists for oversized efforts to collapse under their own weight.
