As an astrologer, I rely on the stars to reveal the underlying forces shaping key events. I would like to share with you my analysis and predictions regarding Trump’s presidency. This topic is fascinating to me—especially since I had predicted his victory, and that prediction has come true. Donald Trump’s presidency offers a compelling case study. His second term as the 47th president of the United States began with astrological signs that foreshadow both triumphs and challenges. Now, let’s examine the dynamics of his presidency, starting from the day of his inauguration.
The Inauguration Horoscope: Optimism and Challenges
The day of Trump’s inauguration marks the birth of his new administration, and analyzing this chart reveals key tendencies. One thing stands out immediately: Trump’s heavy reliance on his team. The chart suggests that both Trump and his team are optimistic about achieving grand transformations in the U.S., but this optimism may prove fragile.
Venus in Pisces—a sign governed by Neptune—is at the heart of the issue. Neptune often represents illusions, and Venus’s close aspect with Saturn highlights a clash between idealism and reality. Saturn pulls toward traditional values and limitations. This may indicate conflicts between deception and truth. Uncovering secrets, scandals, and deceptions could become a central theme of his presidency. But this won’t be an easy journey—the established system will resist and actively counteract, and the struggle will be intense.
His team consists of dreamers and idealists, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it is likely that not everything they envision will materialize. However, in many areas, Trump will see significant progress in advancing his reforms.
One key development is the strengthening of U.S. military capabilities, including its nuclear arsenal, as indicated by Pluto’s central position in the inauguration chart.
Economic stabilization in the U.S. will be limited in the early part of this year but will become more pronounced in the second half of 2025 and into early 2026. During this period, the U.S. will be in the spotlight, and “Trumpism” as a political movement will give a tailwind to right-wing parties around the world. Trade and economic activity in the U.S. will grow. For Trump personally, this period will also be financially rewarding—it is highly likely that his (or his family’s) fortune will significantly increase. However, all of Trump’s successes will be met with increasingly fierce resistance from the Democratic Party and other opponents. The more he achieves, the stronger this opposition will become, and it may reach intense levels.
The most challenging period of Trump’s presidency will be the first half of 2025, particularly up until June. Late March and the last week of April 2025 are particularly dangerous periods for Trump and the United States. During these times, political opposition and external threats could converge, creating volatile situations. Despite Trump’s patriotic intentions to “Make America Great Again,” natural forces and other uncontrollable factors may hinder his plans.
The Moon’s hostile aspect with Mars warns of potential dangers for Trump, particularly during travel. His adversaries within the U.S. political elite are numerous, and caution will be essential.
Trump’s Natal Chart: Optimism, Risk-Taking, and Unwavering Luck
Trump’s personal horoscope offers further insights into his leadership style and the outcomes of his presidency. As a Gemini with a Sagittarius Moon and Leo Ascendant, he exudes charisma, adaptability, and confidence. His birth during a Full Moon enhances his emotional intensity and dual nature—he can be both a visionary and impulsive.
His horoscope reveals the energy of someone who retains a youthful spirit well into old age, carrying the energy of a teenager. This youthful enthusiasm, combined with adolescent idealism and a revolutionary attitude, will be evident throughout his presidency.
His Sagittarius Moon imbues him with boundless optimism and a youthful, almost adolescent outlook. This quality, coupled with his Leo Ascendant, makes him a showman who thrives on attention and high stakes. The configurations in his chart highlight artistic talent, dynamic energy, and exceptional luck.
In 2024, Jupiter—the planet of expansion and fortune—was perfectly aligned with his Sun and in a favorable aspect to his natal Jupiter, making his electoral victory highly predictable. However, his second term will not be without obstacles.
As I mentioned earlier, Trump will need to exercise caution—his enemies, particularly during the first half of the year, will stop at nothing to try to bring him down.
Immigration, Greenland, and European Discontent
Trump’s approach to the migrant crisis, especially concerning Latin American countries, will yield some tangible results. While progress will be made, the deeply rooted nature of the problem means that a complete resolution is unlikely.
Tensions with Europe, already visible, will intensify. Trump’s actions could accelerate the process of fragmentation within the European Union, with signs of its potential breakup becoming evident by 2030. His role as a catalyst for this geopolitical shift underscores his impact on global affairs.
While plans to annex Canada will fail, the situation with Greenland appears more promising for Trump. His influence over the territory is likely to grow, and discussions about some form of association with the U.S. could become a reality. Although this is unlikely to happen in 2025, it could materialize between 2026 and 2027.
Tensions with Europe will also grow, primarily over financial and economic matters, including contributions to NATO. Ever the businessman, Trump will push for Europe to shoulder more of the financial burden. However, this pressure will further strain relations, and significant rifts between the U.S. and Europe will widen.
Russia-Ukraine Conflict and China
Trump’s ambitious claim to bring peace to Ukraine and Russia within a day has already proven unrealistic. A more feasible timeline would be three to four months, but even then, the initial negotiation attempts are likely to fail.
He will set conditions that Russia is unlikely to accept, prolonging the stalemate. However, his efforts will help break the deadlock, and by the second half of the year, we can expect a freeze in active hostilities.
Russia will achieve its objectives, or come close, through military means rather than diplomacy. Trump will have to acknowledge these outcomes, despite his reluctance to grasp the full depth of the conflict. His lack of emotional investment in Ukraine’s fate further complicates matters.
China will present another challenge, as it is not inclined to follow the U.S.’s lead. China will continue pursuing its own agenda, likely extending the economic conflict that began during Trump’s first term.
Pluto’s Influence: Destruction and Renewal
Pluto’s return to its position in the natal chart of the United States marks a period of transformation. In astrology, Pluto symbolizes destruction before renewal—tearing down outdated systems to pave the way for new structures. This transit, coinciding with Trump’s presidency, suggests that he could be a conduit for these changes.
As the United States experiences a decline in its international influence, this shift may not signal defeat but rather a strategic pivot inward. The nation’s focus may shift from total global expansion to domestic development, with international relations taking a backseat. While this transition could be perceived as a loss, it may ultimately lead to regeneration and a renewed national identity.
Conclusion: A Presidency of High Stakes and Transformation
Donald Trump’s second term will be marked by high stakes, major challenges, and significant transformations. From economic struggles and strained international relations to internal conflicts and security risks, the road ahead is anything but smooth.
However, Trump’s role as a catalyst for change, amplified by Pluto’s energy, could leave a lasting legacy. Whether this legacy will be seen as necessary disruption or missed opportunities depends on how the United States navigates this turbulent period. One thing is certain: Trump’s presidency will shape the nation’s path for years to come, fostering both reflection and renewal.
