The Astrology of Tim Walz

The Horoscope for Kamala's Vice-President Pick

WITHOUT A BIRTH TIME FOR TIM WALZ there is only so much you can do. Yet, using the standard 12.00 noon compromise (and avoiding the Moon and the angles) it is still possible to see standout characteristics, which would not alter, no matter what time Walz was born. (Wikimedia Commons).

CNN reports that Kamala Harris has chosen Tim Walz as her running mate because he is a ‘happy-go-lucky warrior and joyful presence.” Does that show in the chart? And most importantly, given that all this has happened on Mercury Retrograde, just how much flux will this produce for the Democrats later on? This is the cycle when nothing remains, as it is originally pinned.

The Tim Walz Natal Chart

Something momentous like this will show up right away in a natal chart. So how are the heavens on August 5th, 6th 2024 for Walz?

Transiting Ceres at 8 Capricorn in the Tenth House of success is exactly trine Apollo at 8 Virgo in the Sixth House of work, duty and service. Transiting Mercury is at 4 Virgo, very close to a trine with the South Node at 5 Capricorn, again in the Tenth House of success and ambition. Just one problem, though. Mercury is retrograde.

THE DEMOCRATS WE ARE SEEING NOW are not the Democrats we will see later on. The Trump-Vance-Harris-Walz dance has taken place on Mercury Retrograde, when the paperwork, announcements, media and social media are in reverse, even as they appear to be moving forward.

This is most certainly a team player, though. Walz has an Aquarius stellium and we are moving into Pluto (the power) in Aquarius (the group) for another 20 years or so. The future belongs to diversity in the community, and Pluto in Aquarius always brings female leadership, long-term. The Walz chart suggests he is in tune with the times.

HARRIS IS QUOTED AS SAYING HER NEW RUNNING MATE is ‘happy-go-lucky’ and Jupiter is the planet of both luck and happiness. Here he sits in the First House of image, branding and reputation in the Walz chart. This is the case no matter what time the potential new Vice-President of the USA was born. People with Jupiter in the First House project great optics. He has them. (Dreamstime).

We’re only in August, though, and there is a long and winding road into September 2024, which has long been a very difficult moment of truth for Harris. In fact, the astrology called that four years ago.

Unlike her chosen running mate, Harris does have a timed, AA-rated natal chart. So how does it shape up with the Walz horoscope? Her Moon at 27 Aries is just one degree away from a perfect conjunction with his Jupiter at 28 Aries. In terms of appearances, you could not hope for anything better.

This is a big, jovial, energetic, can-do combination. At least in the media and on social media, where elections are won. What the charts also show, though, is a change in the balance of power within the Democrats in September, October, November and Walz is profoundly affected by that. We wait.
