Nick Dagan Best: The Astrologer Who Saw Trump Coming
In the world of predictive astrology, few forecasts have garnered as much attention as Nick Dagan Best's remarkable prediction of Donald Trump's presidential victory, made years before it occurred. Through his innovative use of the human ephemeris technique and comprehensive understanding of historical cycles, Best demonstrated the powerful potential of mundane astrology. At Wilfred Hazelwood, we've long studied his methodological approach, which combines rigorous historical research with precise astronomical calculations.
The Human Ephemeris Technique
Best's approach revolutionised mundane astrology through his development and refinement of the human ephemeris technique. This method involves:
Core Principles
- Tracking planetary cycles through human lifespans
- Identifying recurring patterns in personal and political events
- Mapping historical correlations with astronomical phenomena
- Analysing intersecting planetary returns
Mathematical Precision
The technique requires extraordinary attention to detail:
- Exact degree calculations
- Precise timing of aspects
- Multiple cycle correlations
- Historical pattern recognition
The Trump Prediction
The Methodology Behind the Forecast
Best's prediction wasn't mere speculation, but rather the result of:
- Careful analysis of historical political cycles
- Study of previous presidential elections
- Examination of Trump's personal planetary patterns
- Integration of broader mundane cycles
Key Astrological Factors
Several crucial elements contributed to Best's forecast:
- Saturn-Jupiter cycle correlations
- Eclipse patterns
- Nodal returns
- Personal planetary progressions
