Two months ago my girlfriend introduced me to the vertex. In astrology the vertex represents an angle of fate; otherwise known as the part of sacred relationships. Transits to your vertex may reveal the timing of when you’ll meet these *special* people.
Interestingly enough, Barack Obama had Saturn conjunct his Vertex (in the 7th house) from 9/3 to 9/19. Saturn is associated with hard work, responsibility and difficulty. The 7th house represents ones one-on-one relationships and one’s enemies. Hmmm…isn’t it interesting that Sarah Palin gave her speech at the Republican convention on September 3rd? From 9/3 through 9/19 Sarah Palin’s popularity was growing while Barack Obama popularity was going down in the polls. Since Sept. 19th Obama has been going back up in the polls.
On Sept. 3rd Sarah Palin had Jupiter conjunct her vertex ( just off by 1deg 10 minutes in her 5th house). Jupiter represents luck and positive influences. Isn’t it interesting how her nomination by McCain made her instantly famous and she was so well received and liked at the Republican national convention?
From Oct. 5th through November, John McCain will have Uranus conjunct his vertex (which is in his 6th house). Sounds like something unusual, unexpected and sudden might happen to McCain in October. Since it’s in his 6th house I wonder if it could be something about his health? I guess we will soon find out.
