Barack Obama – The Great Narrator

Barack Obama needs no introduction, and regardless of our political affiliation, we can all agree that he is a superb narrator. His communication skills are outstanding, and I doubt any current politician can match him in public speaking.

So what makes him so outstanding from a BaZi Chart perspective? Several aspects work well together. Obama is a robust Yin Earth Master Element, so naturally, he welcomes the Output Component, which, in his case, is the Element of Metal. There is a strong Yin Metal structure in a year pillar, the Metal Ox. An Ox/Snake combination further reinforces this structure. Yin Metal represents Artist Talent, and in his case, it’s of superb quality. This Yin Metal is sitting in a year pillar, meaning this Talent gets global recognition.

The Ox / Snake combination is significant because it initiates the Creativity Talent Bridge between Fire and Metal, or Intellect and Output Character Components.

Another exciting aspect is the Yin Wood Element atop the Goat. This Yin Wood serves as a Supertalent, counterbalancing his excessive Earth Element. This Supertalent brings him powerful charisma and political influence.

All these qualities work well together, especially between 2000 and 2020, when he was going through Metal / Wood Dynamic Luck, which revealed them even more. That 20-year period was a peak in his Chart performance, especially in terms of political influence.
