The morning that Trump set the tone for his 4 year term of office: here's the chart of his meeting with New York Times reporters--and the report thereof follows, plus my interpretation of the chart after all that:
The quotes come from the tweets of New York Times reporters Mike Grynbaum and Maggie Haberman, who attended a meeting between the President-elect and reporters and editors at the paper.
It's a stunning departure from the campaign rhetoric, which could come as a shock to some of the President-elect's most ardent supporters. The Times characterized one exchange as extending an olive branch to Clinton supporters. "I think I will explain it that we, in many ways, will save our country," he said.
He said the issues have been investigated "ad nauseum" and he added, according to Haberman, that people could argue the Clinton Foundation has done "good work."
"I think when the President-elect, who's also the head of your party, tells you before he's even inaugurated that he doesn't wish to pursue these charges, it sends a very strong message, tone and content" to fellow Republicans, Conway said in an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe." At the second presidential debate in early October, Trump threatened Clinton, saying that "if I win, I am going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation." http://www.cnn.com/2016/11/22/politics/conway-no-clinton-charges-donald-trump/index.html

Chart for mid-morning of Tuesday, 11-22-16: Sun bisects the square of Jupiter near zenith to Venus/Pluto near rising. A second square is between Moon and Mercury/Saturn. All orbs are at midpoints of their respective signs, therefore much more emphasized and much more rare. Uranus joins in to the Jupiter to Venus/Pluto square to make a T-square, showing sudden, sharp, revolutionary change. Lastly, Neptune ruling in its own sign conjoins south lunar node while opposing Moon. Alot is going on. At zenith is ~13 degrees Scorpio; at ascendant is ~18 degrees Capricorn, so Pluto was at or very near ascendant during that mid-morning discussion. What about lunar progression for this chart? By mid-March 2019 Moon will progress (at rate of 13.18 degrees/year) to the "natal" Jupiter. This will most likely intensify the square or friction nature of this chart's dominant theme--friction/conflict. -r, mt. shasta, ca

Here follows the previous official's parting comments, with an astrologic chart thereof plus my interpretation below that--
...if I had told you that we would open up a new chapter with the Cuban people, shut down Iran’s nuclear weapons program without firing a shot, and take out the mastermind of 9/11…if I had told you that we would win marriage equality, and secure the right to health insurance for another 20 million of our fellow citizens – you might have said our sights were set a little too high....
The wealthy are paying a fairer share of taxes even as the stock market shatters records....
While the top one percent has amassed a bigger share of wealth and income, too many families, in inner cities and rural counties, have been left behind...convinced that the game is fixed against them, that their government only serves the interests of the powerful – a recipe for more cynicism and polarization in our politics. ...
The rise of naked partisanship, increasing economic and regional stratification, the splintering of our media into a channel for every taste – all this makes this great sorting seem natural, even inevitable. And increasingly, we become so secure in our bubbles that we accept only information, whether true or not, that fits our opinions, instead of basing our opinions on the evidence that’s out there. This trend represents a third threat to our democracy. Politics is a battle of ideas; in the course of a healthy debate, we’ll prioritize different goals, and the different means of reaching them. But without some common baseline of facts; without a willingness to admit new information, and concede that your opponent is making a fair point, and that science and reason matter, we’ll keep talking past each other, making common ground and compromise impossible.
Isn’t that part of what makes politics so dispiriting? How can elected officials rage about deficits when we propose to spend money on preschool for kids, but not when we’re cutting taxes for corporations? Because as my mother used to tell me, reality has a way of catching up with you.
Take the challenge of climate change. In just eight years, we’ve halved our dependence on foreign oil, doubled our renewable energy, and led the world to an agreement that has the promise to save this planet. But without bolder action, our children won’t have time to debate the existence of climate change...
(We Americans) build a post-World War II order with other democracies, an order based not just on military power or national affiliations but on principles – the rule of law, human rights, freedoms of religion, speech, assembly, and an independent press. That order is now being challenged – first by violent fanatics who claim to speak for Islam; more recently by autocrats in foreign capitals who see free markets, open democracies, and civil society itself as a threat to their power. The peril each poses to our democracy is more far-reaching than a car bomb or a missile. It represents the fear of change; the fear of people who look or speak or pray differently; a contempt for the rule of law that holds leaders accountable; an intolerance of dissent and free thought; a belief that the sword or the gun or the bomb or propaganda machine is the ultimate arbiter of what’s true and what’s right....
That’s why we cannot withdraw from global fights – to expand democracy, and human rights, women’s rights, and LGBT rights – no matter how imperfect our efforts, no matter how expedient ignoring such values may seem. For the fight against extremism and intolerance and sectarianism are of a piece with the fight against authoritarianism and nationalist aggression....
When trust in our institutions is low, we should reduce the corrosive influence of money in our politics, and insist on the principles of transparency and ethics in public service....
Our Constitution is a remarkable, beautiful gift. But it’s really just a piece of parchment. It has no power on its own. We the people give it power – with our participation, and the choices we make. Whether or not we stand up for our freedoms. Whether or not we respect and enforce the rule of law....
In his own farewell address, George Washington wrote that self-government is the underpinning of our safety, prosperity, and liberty, but “from different causes and from different quarters much pains will be taken…to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth;” that we should preserve it with “jealous anxiety;” that we should reject “the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest or to enfeeble the sacred ties” that make us one. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2017/01/10/watch_live_president_obamas_farewell_address.html

This chart for 1-10-17 evening shows a strong t-square of sun with Uranus and Jupiter, reinforced by Sautrn which can be called karma or the hard lessons. -r, mt. shasta, ca
