A Lesson In Sagittarius Optimism, From Herman Cain

Herman Cain (born December 13 1945, time uncertain, Memphis TN) had his Sun, Mercury, and Venus all in Sagittarius. Most people who are familiar with astrology will tell you that this would make him unafraid to speak up about his beliefs.

“Masks will not be mandatory at the event, which will be attended by President Trump. PEOPLE ARE FED UP!”
-Herman Cain’s Twitter account, in a now-deleted Tweet from June 1st, in reference to the Tulsa rally on June 20th.

Of late, transiting Jupiter has been square Herman’s natal Jupiter. This particular transit, which has been in effect for much of this year, could make anyone a little more recklessly optimistic than usual. But when you throw in Pluto square natal Jupiter too? That could be very reckless… especially for a Sagittarius.

“We are sorry to announce that Herman Cain has tested positive for COVID-19, and is currently receiving treatment in an Atlanta-area hospital. Please keep him, and all who are battling this virus, in your prayers.”
-Herman Cain’s Twitter account, July 22.

Also, Sagittarius often has a great fondness for sports and games!

“Something must have gone *very* wrong for the situation to get this out of control, this quickly. #AtlantaBraves #Coronavirus #MajorLeagueBaseballMLB #MiamiMarlins #PhiladelphiaPhillies”
-Herman Cain’s Twitter account, referring to the outbreak of COVID-19 among Major League Baseball players, July 30th

But, you know? Sometimes the specific gifts that come with any given Sign can also be a curse. Like for example, when it comes to a stubbornly dogmatic Sagittarius…

“Herman Cain – our boss, our friend, like a father to so many of us – has passed away. He’s entering the presence of the Savior he’s served as an associate minister at Antioch Baptist Church in Atlanta, and preparing for his reward… Let me deal with some of the particulars of the last few weeks. We knew when he was first hospitalized with COVID-19 that this was going to be a rough fight…”
