Election Prediction Confirmed
In the last tarot reading I posted on January 6th ( before the Iowa primaries), I predicted that the Republican candidates would be whittled down to Haley, Trump, and DeSantis. That’s exactly what happened yesterday.
So what’s next?
Now I’ll pull a card about the next direction and general tone of the elections.
After that, I’ll continue this week’s tarot reading with more details in the extended version of this article, which will be available to paid subscribers.
Q. What’s Next in the US Elections?
A. Imagery
A high-hatted, mostly monochromatically dressed man juggles two coins as he dances on barren land. While juggling normally requires balance and skill, these coins move through space with the support of material that forms the shape of an infinity sign. He is near the sea, where we can see ships both far and near navigating windy weather. The sky appears to be clear. This man is very focussed on the task at hand.
Interpretation
There is a balancing act that needs to be performed to maintain the story told by this card. This balance is not easy when the wind is moving things around! Our juggler figure juggles and dances and perhaps entertains (at least himself) while trying to restore order. Pentacles can represent finance, security, land, the home, and anything connected to the material world. Astrologically, the Suit of Pentacles is most closely related to Earth signs.
Two of Pentacles Dreams: I’ve been having recurring dreams for years. Some take place on vast beaches around the world. Others are set in the ocean, on large water vehicles that look like cruise ships converted into floating apartment buildings.
The scenes from these dreams are not something I’ve experienced before in life. They also meet the qualifications of previous predictive dreams that I’ve posted about before (including Reality, Specificity, Continuity, and Empathy). In each of them, large groups of people stand on a long beach. More and more gather over time. They seem to almost live there, but they’re also waiting for something critical. It seems like there’s been a radical change that they’re adapting to, but these dreams are also extremely peaceful and there’s a feeling of unprecedented connection throughout humankind.
I had another one of these dreams last night, but something changed this time. The dream took place at night, and the sand on the beach had turned black. I moved my bare feet through it and felt a wet, gelatinous substance. Was it oil? Or something else?
In the world of the 2 of Pentacles, something significant is changing in the land and sea, and it is all connected (as signified by the infinity sign). Since this reading is about elections, it seems that these primaries will be a primary factor in determining climate outcomes. Climate change (as alluded to through the changing winds of this card) and subsequently unstable weather (which we can also see as the ships are tossed around the windy sea) hang in the balance of what happens next…
Preview: Conclusion
This reading indicates big problems for both major parties…
What does all this mean spiritually? Based on these cards, some of the underlying themes in the politics of the United States reflect a tension between the following dichotomies: denial versus truth, power versus surrender, individual versus collective (Pluto in Aquarius coming to a planet near you this Saturday!), and past versus future…

Democratic News From the Future
Considering that the main elections question now and into the near future will be about who becomes the Republican nominee, this article will be more focussed on the Republican primaries (as well as a bonus card of the week for you at the end!)
Yet it’s still interesting to look at predictions for the Democratic campaign, especially as it’s inextricably connected and will also become big news not too far into the future…
In this image, a man with an oar tries to row a woman and child to safety at another shore, surrounded by protective swords. Reversed, the boat appears to be stuck and cannot move forward. The 6 of Swords Reversed is a card that warns about getting stuck in the past. Relying on replicating previous wins won’t work this time. There’s resistance to the way the world of politics is changing and a refusal to go along with it. This is perhaps ironic considering that the Democrats are considered to be the more progressive segment of the two-party system. Yet radical changes are coming from other places this year.
This is a card that indicates serious trouble ahead. Upright, this card promises a better future. Reversed, it isn’t possible to get there because it’s as if the boat is rowing in the wrong direction: backwards.
According to this card, the Democratic party won’t be able to let go of the past. They’ll be campaigning like it’s 1999!
Republican Candidates
Haley
This is the same card we pulled for Republican candidates on January 6th. You can revisit the reading here. The card probably refers to Haley, as it features a female figure.
What does this mean? The card coming up twice could signify that she will be pushed back from moving forward because she is a woman. Which means the candidate will likely be a man. Still, I mentioned before that she will play an important role in the future, especially (and initially) focussing on a diplomatic role connected to foreign affairs.
Trump
9 of Pentacles Reversed can denote someone who is determined and will be willing to even overwork themselves to get what they want. Trump is very intent on getting what he wants, and so are his followers. They see it as an almost evangelical mission, with him as their political ‘Messiah’.
I want to look into this more. Beyond his determination, what else do the cards want to tell us about Trump’s unfolding campaign?
8 of Pentacles is another card about hard work. The reversed 9 of Pentacles indicated a difficulty with Trump getting what he wants. There will be obstacles and setbacks. The upright 8 of Pentacles denoted that Trump has many people who are ready to volunteer for this campaign. These supporters (mostly older but some young ones) will make what they perceive as a ‘cause’ the centre of their lives. Hardcore believers will do this with an almost (or maybe completely) religious zeal.
So far, this reading for Trump is bringing up Pentacles, so he should have the material requirements necessary to move forward as the nominee. There is the already established question of his being disqualified in some states, but if those cases go to the courts he has enough friends in those systems (and people he placed in positions as judges or who his associates positioned as judges) to overcome that setback.
The final question left in this part of the reading about Trump is:
Q. Will Trump have what it takes to become the nominee, or will something block that from happening?
A. The Knight of Swords seems unstoppable in battle, with his sword, armour, and seemingly fast horse. He uses ideas and speech to break down or critique other people’s ambitions, inventions, and words. However, while he seems to be moving forwards, notice how the wind in the background blows the trees backwards.
There’s that backwards motion again! We saw it in the boat that could not move forward in the card we got earlier in this reading for the Democratic campaign (6 of Swords R ). Are these two cards connected?
Both Trump and Biden are approaching the world and these elections with some of the ways of the past. This is not surprising, given how much time they’ve lived through. But the Knight of Swords is also looking into the future. That’s the edge, and the sword (Air signs and ideas) that Trump’s campaign will have.
While it appears from the Knight of Swords and 8 of Pentacles that Trump is capable of getting the nomination, the 9 of Pentacles R and the winds in the Knight’s way in the card indicate that something holds him back, at least temporarily. Something about this will be referred to in future news articles as a ‘nail-biter’.
According to the next card in this reading, there will be a double. This is a second person who steps in and then steps back. They are a foil. It’s like Trump can’t do this on his own. He will need help. In the end, Trump will see and frame any setbacks as ‘miraculous’ triumphs. He will call them ‘miracles’ in his speeches, invoking religious associations with his campaign and hopeful Presidency.
The Knight of Swords also warns: don’t underestimate this man. He will be unyielding and keep resurrecting no matter how many setbacks come his way. He’s planted seeds over the last four years that we will see coming to fruition this year. It’s a complicated move forward. But according to these cards, his ascension is more forwards than backwards.
Will Trump bring about the revolution that he promises? Or is that coming more from the far left? Or somewhere else? More on that in another article!
For now, a candidate who is also leaning to the far right can give us more insight into Trump’s campaign and the direction of the Republican nominations...
DeSantis Scandal & Comeback
What is DeSantis’ role in all this?
The Scandal
The Lovers Reversed can suggest someone cold and detached, an imbalanced relationship, or sometimes a workplace indiscretion. Someone wants to take down DeSantis’ campaign, and they have just the dirt to do it. The clouds in this card indicate an idea that already exists, even if temporarily covered up. In other words, it’s already ‘in the works’.
When it comes to finances, The Lovers R can be interpreted as having less funding than needed or anticipated. As Trump gains steam, there will be less financial backing for others.
However, this is not over.
The Lovers is ruled by Gemini, which signifies twins. There’s something in this card that portrays DeSantis as an eventual ‘doppelganger’. Since the card is reversed, he might miss the mark and not entirely fulfill that role…but he will try.
Could this duality in DeSantis’ political career be somehow connected to Trump’s ‘double’ from our earlier Trump card reading? In other words, will it seem like DeSantis is moving forward only so Trump can pick up speed? Or vice versa, back and forth? One thing’s for sure, they’re very connected. Some who seem like adversaries onstage are more like actors rehearsing behind the scenes as they co-direct the show. There’s something very calculated about this whole election enterprise!
The Comeback
When I shuffled the cards to ask where DeSantis would be headed, the King of Wands initially showed as upright, then slipped out of the deck to fall into a reversed position. The King of Wands Reversed can have tunnel vision and subsequently become domineering as a leader. This card indicates a tendency towards tyranny. Of course, some may say the same of Trump or others. Again, they are portrayed in this card reading as doubles or twins. It will be interesting to see where they’re both at when the Sun moves into Gemini, the sign of the twins. And especially once Jupiter enters Gemini around May 25th, 2024. The truth will be revealed about a lot of things once we move through that transit. Things are not as they seem, and while differing in personalities, these two candidates are in some ways one.
DeSantis will return but the reversal of this card indicates that future news articles may accuse him of being strong-willed. In other words, willfulness will hold him back. An unwillingness to collaborate or compromise means his rise will be fraught with conflict. One thing is for sure…there will be drama!
Conclusion
This reading indicates big problems in both major parties, not to mention the third parties that will be emerging in a bigger way than perhaps ever before during this election cycle.
What does all this mean spiritually? Based on these cards, some of the underlying themes in the politics of the United States reflect a tension between the following dichotomies: denial versus truth, power versus surrender, individual versus collective (Pluto in Aquarius coming to a planet near you this Saturday!), and past versus future…

Future News for You: Card of the Week
The Empress is one of the cards I love getting reversed! It’s a warm, nurturing, inviting, and friendly reminder about self-care. I welcome those kinds of breaks! They can also bring us back into the present if the focus has been on resolving the past or preparing for the future. The Empress is a reminder of the abundance that exists now.
In relationships, this card’s reversal can be a reminder to put the focus back on ourselves, the one thing we can control. This comes back to the saying (source unknown) that we can only control our ABCs (Attitudes, Behaviours, and Choices).
When it comes to career or personal interests, the Empress R can be about building enjoyable skills when old ways have become uninteresting. Considering that The Empress is a Mother Goddess-type figure situated in a lush, green area in front of a vast forest, inspired ideas can come from spending time in nature when you get this card. Seeking a broader perspective can be deeply beneficial and meaningful right now.
This is an earthy card and can be said to be ruled by Venus. A week from now, Uranus in Taurus will be semi-sextile to True Node in Aries. This change can indicate new and unusual ideas, inspired by who you are or what is naturally in your world. Perhaps you will feel like a visionary in creating the ever-shifting inner painting of your life. If you have Aquarius, Taurus, or Aries prominently in your chart, you have the potential to initiate a radical change in your sense of self or the way you think right now.
Overall, there is a connection between the Taurean earthiness of this card and the Venusian qualities of nurturing it exhibits. Self-love can bring a deepened awareness of the importance of Earth, and a love of the Earth can, by extension, bring about a renewal of self-love.
