Robert F. Kennedy Jr (January 17, 1954)

Does RFK Jr have a death wish? That’s the only conclusion I can reach when considering his run for the Democrats’ nomination for the Presidency in 2024. First of all, he will have to unseat Joe Biden, and, secondly, he will have to overcome a lot of negative press for his anti-VAXX views. (And then there’s the Kennedy Curse.)

This chart is totally randomized, but I’m keeping it since JFK’s assassination occurred when he was almost 10 years old, represented by Pluto in his chart. Two of the three inconjuncts come from that planet. (I suspect his father’s death was even more traumatic, at age 14, but we’ll stick with this time.)

There will be many changes in your life, and you will be affected by deep psychological forces that may be difficult to understand at times, as well as confusing to the people around you. You approach people with great intensity, and your emotional involvements are seldom casual. Either you life people very much or you dislike them intensely. Possibly your attitudes on other matters will be extreme also. One of the most important lessons that you will have to learn is to be more moderate.

You have a very strong will and can be quite stubborn, even when you don’t have any particular reason to be. It is as if you automatically resist any pressure to act in a particular way, even if you know it is good for you. This may arise from a fear off being controlled, helpless or manipulated by anyone else.

Mercury Inconjunct Pluto

You have a rather complicated and sometimes tricky mind. You usually prefer to do things in roundabout and involved ways instead of being simple and direct.

On the positive side, this means that you enjoy solving puzzles, tracking down mysteries and finding out about hidden matters.

On the negative side, you might misuse this [psychic] ability by trying to control people’s thoughts and words. You may enjoy working in secret and creating an air of mystery about yourself, but this could backfire and make others misunderstand you or even fear what you are doing.

On another level, this aspect can mean that at certain times in your life you will go through tremendous psychological changes. All your thoughts and opinions will change completely. These stages may seem difficult, but you will be much better off if you let go of the past and welcome the new ideas.

Mars Inconjunct Jupiter

It is important for you to realize that you are not unlucky. Accidents or mishaps result from going too far too fast rather than from bad luck. If you slow down and learn new skills carefully and slowly, you will do as well as anyone else.

You have a great need for personal freedom also. But while you are young, you may not be very responsible about the way you use your freedom. You may take too many liberties or even interfere with other people’s freedom. Here again the problem is rashness and lack of self-control.

Hmm. We shall see how this Quixotic struggle turns out.
