The
junior Congresswoman from New York is getting a great deal of press –
and now even on the astrological websites! I have been astonished at
how she attracts more interest than any other new Congressional
representative or senator ever – excepting probably the charismatic
young JFK when he won his Senate seat.

One
of the BIG drivers of her campaign run was her first Saturn return.
AOC beat her Republican opponent on November 6, 2018, smack in the
middle of the exact return. Her natal Saturn is at 5 degrees of
Capricorn, and Saturn was at 5 degrees of Capricorn from November
2–13, 2018. So obviously she had decided to use the Saturn energy
to accept more responsibility, duty, and hard work with long hours.
Another
key transit, in my opinion, was Jupiter rolling through her
Ascendant, Sagittarius. Nothing can be luckier for a Sag rising than
to have its ruler, the luckiest planet of them all, putting a big
smile on your face to the world.
Let's
not forget the impact of Uranus entering Taurus and setting up a
trine to her natal Uranus in Capricorn! Uranus is usually described
in terms of unreliability or oddness, but in this case the quality of
uniqueness best describes her appeal to many segments of her Brooklyn
constituency as well as her ready wit when someone tries to take her
down a notch for a tape of her dancing. Uranus also rules lucky
breaks, which is also a great help when taking on an established
incumbent.
I
say she is at the beginning of her political career because before
you know it, favorable outer planet placements and the nodes will
recharge her booster rockets. Her earth-sign Saturn-Uranus-Neptune
stellium will benefit from the Saturn-Jupiter conjunction in Taurus
in late 2020 which signifies the keynote for the next 20 years. After
2028, transiting Uranus in Gemini will start trining her natal Sun
and Mars in Libra. Later transiting North Node will move into
Sagittarius and contact her natal Ascendant and Venus.
So
I am not too worried that the current criticism from the far right
will cut her political career short. If anything, she will just fire
back while keeping her eyes on the issues and goals that motivate her
most.
