2. Moon in an Earth Sign: 17/46 or 37%
3. Mars in Leo 11/46 or 24%, Mars in Scorpio 8/46 or 17%. In Leo or Scorpio 41%.
4. Background in politics principally*/military secondarily: About 42/46* or 91% (Taylor, Grant, and Eisenhower all had been career soldiers. Trump was a businessman).
5. Republican/Democrat (since 1912 to more reflect current positions/modern parties): Trend —it is not set in stone– is for voters to select opposite party after the other is in office for 8 years. Two exceptions were FDR’s 4 terms and 1 with Truman, and the Reagan/Bush years (3 terms). The state of the economy can coincide.
