It isn't my strength, but I thought I'd try a 9-card square to look at what Donald Trump's presidential agenda might be during his first 100 days in office (which seems to be some kind of litmus test or benchmark for future performance). Some of it is quite predictable, of course.
I chose the Man card as significator and placed it at the center of the spread. The lines were:
Dog-Bear-Rider
Coffin-Man-Mountain
Tower-Bouquet-Fish
Dog-Bear-Rider (unfortunately, this gives me the vivid impression of a "three-ring" circus act):
He will tap his closest advisors for political appointments; he will consolidate his power base; he will reiterate his election-night messages to the country, perhaps in more detail.
Coffin-Man-Mountain:
After heading off defeat at the polls, he will now begin arduously "climbing the mountain" by at least prioritizing his promises and deciding which ones to dead-end as too impractical.
Tower-Bouquet-Fish: He may announce something unilateral in the short-term to begin bolstering prosperity, perhaps in the area of tax incentives or roll-backs. He may take a critical look at entitlements like Obamacare but will only strategize at this point.
Dog-Coffin-Tower:
He will "clean house" of opposition appointees after announcing his choices for key administration roles.
Bear-Man-Bouquet:
Inauguration; he will accept and begin exercising his mandate to assume power.
Rider-Mountain-Fish:
He may get bad news from financial markets.
Dog-Man-Fish: His most loyal supporters will be richly rewarded.
Rider-Man-Tower: He will begin issuing administrative directives.
Dog-Bear-Rider-Mountain-Fish-Bouquet-Tower-Coffin:
He will get his Attorney General appointee to absolve him of financial wrongdoing in connection with ongoing court proceedings (or maybe a quiet plea-bargain), putting it behind him.
