Kim Kardashian and the Plutocrat President
When two reality TV stars meet in the Oval Office behind the big desk, you know the world is topsy-turvy. Well, we are where we are… and here at The OA we love a great picture. The official White House photographer(s) just keep on giving…
Kim Kardashian and Donald Trump in the Oval Office on May 30, 2018.
What’s also interesting is that this week, Donald Trump did exactly what Ms. Kardashian had asked him to do on this occasion, and pardoned Alice Johnson, a 63-year-old black grandma serving a life sentence for a first offence drug crime. So Kardashian’s trip to the Oval Office was a success. Clearly, she read the president right, handled him correctly and got the win.
In fact for both of them, it’s an easy win. He gets to have his picture taken with one of the most famous women in America, and she gets to do a proper good deed. Of course, she looks pretty creeped out, but there she is, appropriately dressed in a figure concealing black get-up that covers her right up to the neck.
Kim Kardashian is a remarkable person — and she has a remarkable natal chart. Just in case you haven’t heard of her, which I doubt, she is the über-reality TV star who has made a gazillion dollars from letting the world follow her every move on twitter, instagram and TV. It’s a family business — her sisters, mother, step-family, children, husband — are all involved. But she is the most visible face of the tribe, the torch bearer.
Just to point out a few simple astrological sparklers in this chart. She has glamorous, spell-caster Neptune Rising — perfect for a star — and expansive Jupiter dead on the midheaven: fame and fortune, high status.
This is from astrotheme, so no Rodden rating.
Of course her route to fame was through her family — and look at her powerfully placed Moon in Pisces, exactly on the IC, the angle of family and opposing Jupiter (which of course rules Pisces). It’s a direct channel up from family to fame.
Of course, beauty is Kardashian’s power. Her Sun is in Venus-ruled Libra and her Venus is right near the top of the chart. That Venus in Virgo gives her precise and focused attention to detail. She’s probably very good at putting on her own make-up.
She also has a tremendous stellium in Libra, the sign of fashion and surface decoration — Sun, Lilith-Pluto (power), Juno (famous marriage), Saturn (ambition).
Kardashian appears to be channeling that Lilith-Pluto in this photograph. And remarkably (I only noticed this after I’d written the previous sentence!), Lilith and Pluto were conjunct on May 30, and making an exact square to her own conjunction of the same. (Wow astrology!)
Kardashian used her special Libra power — glamour and beauty to leverage exactly what she wanted from the Plutocrat in Capricorn sitting behind the desk.
Indeed, you could say, looking at that picture again: on the right Pluto and on the left Lilith. Capricorn is, of course, the sign of established power or government.
I’ve got jupiter conjunct MC! Where’s my fame and fortune?! Or even high status. haha 🙂 It’s not dead on, it’s 8 degrees away, applying.
Were you going to post her chart, I can’t see it if so.
My sun is in scorpio. Its rulers Mars is in Sag, and Pluto is in Virgo. I’m good at doing my make up, but nowhere near Kim’s standard. She brought back contouring. There’s an entire industry around it. She also got women back into wearing make up again, after it was cool not to wear it for so long, or to be subtle if you did. I noticed because I’ve always loved make up. I’m not shy with it though, and subtle is boring. 😉 I’m one of those people who doesn’t hesitate to wear red lipstick. Not surprisingly! 🙂
Really enjoyed the last few paragraphs! 🙂 Wow. Kaypacha talks about Lilith in his weekly videos. So far, I’ve understood it to be about the ‘angry woman’, or the anger inside, suppressed anger? But in this case, it’s a woman using what powers she has to diplomatically (Libra) get what she wants, or rather, doing everything she can to help another. I’ve never really credited her with intelligence, but this is smart, not to mention extraordinarily kind. If I were her, I’d have been scared to meet him. He doesn’t see women as human, just objects. She negated herself as much as possible with head to toe black. No one can argue she used her ‘womanly wiles’, because she quite clearly didn’t. Her beauty attracts everyone, her only shield was what she’s wearing, and having people with her. Someone took the photo at least. I was scathing when the story broke, but I only heard what people were saying, that Kim was going to see him about prison reform, and that she wasn’t qualified.
I have quite a different take on Lilith — more complex I hope. Have a look around the OA. Type Lilith into the search box and some stuff will turn up. My favourite piece though is The Thunder, Perfect Mind.
Kardashian is embodying the Thunder here
Thanks! I have a stellium of asteroids in Aquarius in the 4th house, Juno 5 Aqu, Pallas 6 Aqu, and Lilith 12 Aqu. I think they’re working together somehow, and in my 4th, I’m at home with them? Or I need to learn to be at home with their combined energy? I think it might help with confidence, self esteem etc. Maybe I’ll realise that jupiter conjunct MC! haha 🙂
Yes, sorry Vesta. I forgot to put it on but it’s up now
Not just make up, Kim also influenced beauty standards. Before her, the ideal was white, obviously, because that’s been the default, and since the early 90s, waif-like. The epitome was Kate Moss. She still is, to some extent, but attention has shifted away from her and the ideal of as few curves as possible, as close to masculinity as possible, to Kim Kardashian, who is more exaggerated hour-glass. Again, her ideal is near impossible to attain, but it doesn’t matter, it’s a new and different ideal to strive for. Notably, she isn’t white. Between her and Beyonce, people have got used to non-white women setting the new standards of beauty. It is fair to argue that the current wave of feminism (I forget what number we’re on, whatever I say, I appear to be wrong, 3rd? 4th? whatever) and the next stage of human evolution where we are more diverse has some beginnings with her and Beyonce. I didn’t know about Kim’s chart till now, I wasn’t interested. I’d like to see it.
I am glad you posted about Kim Kardashian. I was just wondering last night why did she get all the crappy backlash for what she does? She doesn’t force people to follow her and her fans are loyal as hell. And if anyone says that she’s dumb, then that person better make much more money than her. Plus she seems to be enjoying the best marriage out of all the Kardashians/Jenners or generally people. Haha you can tell that I am a big Kim-K fan. She is just fascinating.
I don’t think she does. It’s known that Kanye West, a staunch Trump supporter who has said that African Americans have a ‘slave mentality”, has some pretty difficult mental health problems and spends much of his time away from KK. Not one of thise sisters has managed a long lasting relationship, but if you are selling every aspect of your life, including that of your children who, let’s face it, are not in a position to give their consent, then it’s not really surprising imo.
Knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. I was wondering where you’d find that in the chart and I think the opposition across Scorpio-Taurus has a lot to do with it.
Hey there: With Jupiter and Moon exactly on the angles, (Virgo/:Pisces) she certainly has a great opportunity to make visible her reality. Maybe hanging out with the Donald is not particularly helpful in terms of perspective.
True.
It looks to me like she’s not really hanging but gritting her teeth behind her widow’s armour. Judith and Holofernes…
