WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?

Just about everything is wrong with this picture. In this rather amusing 'two's company - three's a crowd' moment, the look on Michelle's face says it all, doesn't it?

In the blink of an eye, this snapshot captures for me the relationship between Barack and Michelle. Barack is a typical Leo. He loves the limelight, and shines in the public eye. Yes, if he wasn't a President, he could have been a movie star. But what about serious, ambitious, career-minded Capricorn, Michelle? Was their match made in Heaven? Yes, and No...!!

The yes part is when he tunes into his more sensitive side, which is evidenced by his ultra sweet Venus in Cancer. Yeah! for Michelle. Even though her birth chart says she has a moon in zero degrees Pisces, I think it's more Aquarius. Either way she is near enough to having a pisces moon, which would make her quite a sensitive soul, so Barack needs to tread softly on occasion. The bad part is when he doesn't...and I suspect this happens from time to time, as above picture would suggest.

Barack also has his mars in Virgo, which works nicely with her sun in Capricorn. Her Jupiter in Aries gives her the necessary feist to deal with Barack's fiery moments. Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius are the fire signs. Wherever you see these in a person's chart, you know they got a bit of chili hot pepper in that department! Michelle's Jupiter in Aries tells me that Barack is lucky for her, as her Jupiter trines his sun. So yes, it was a 'lucky' pairing. They are good for each other, and have each other's back. Barack's retrograde Saturn in Capricorn causes him moments of self-doubt. This is eased by Michelle's loving devotion which makes him feel secure. Beneath all his bravado, there is a little pussy cat needing to be stroked. Lady Michelle is all too aware of this - which is a good thing!

Michelle herself attributes the success of their relationship to "Compromise Compromise Compromise". I would add the word 'Ambition' to the mix. Michelle is both intelligent, and highly ambitious. If they were not so much in the public eye, or had so much money at their disposal, I feel that visits to a relationship counselor would have been on the cards. They are both strong minded individuals, but because Barack has his sun, moon and asc. in fixed signs - he is one seriously stubborn fellow! Michelle has a liberal dose of 'fixed' energy too, but not so afflicted in this department as Barack. In addition, Michelle is not a quitter, and can be tough as nails, when the situation calls for it. There is a lot at stake here for this 'Power Couple', which is what the Leo/Capricorn mix is all about.

Astrologically speaking, and putting all their love ingredients together, I think there is enough love, mutual respect, loyalty, support, and romance for this relationship to last. Let's be honest - Barack is in love with himself, which leaves very little room for poor Michelle on occasion! She just orbits his sun, and that's the way he likes it. Her job is to support her man 24/7, and this she does with all the drive and superhuman work ethic, native to her Capricorn earthy sun. Ambition fuels her obedience to duty.

What brought them together? Barack's moon in earthy Taurus and Mars in earthy Virgo, plus Venus is softy Cancer was a Godsend! Phew - that sure saved the day. Traditionally, A Leo/Capricorn alliance is not a match made in heaven. It depends on other elements to sustain it. Thankfully, they exist. His moon perfectly trines Michelle's sun in Capricorn. There is chemistry there - not in buckets - but enough to ignite the fire, and keep it going. Barack has a generous helping of earthy sensuality, which helps the situation enormously. In addition his ascendant in cool, airy Aquarius hits the spot perfectly with Michelle's moon in equally cool, detached Aquarius. So, there definitely are pockets of perfection in their union.

He is a showman, so will always put his best foot forward. Michelle by nature is a very practical, kind-hearted, home-loving gal. As an earthy Capricorn, she needs a man who gives her lots of TLC. Her ideal partner would be both sensitive, and touchy-feely - AND Successful - yes, that goes with her astrological turf. No good having a brawny butch boy, if he doesn't have the brains! She can organize an evening with the Chippendales any time.

So what does Michelle need to do to keep Barack from playing footsy with the Danish Prime Minister, Helle Thorning-Schmidt, who happens to be Sagittarius - his most compatible sign!! O.K. Let's not panic...He is not going to elope with her - I promise.
