Vivek Ramaswamy – Switching Lanes

Vivek Ramaswamy is one of the GOP candidates for the US president, known for his communication skills. I didn’t follow him closely, but I have seen his speeches on social media here and there. It always gave me the impression of a well-spoken, brilliant individual. Still, I never felt he was presidential material, so I decided to take a look at his Chart.

He is a Yang Metal Master Element, featuring a classic entrepreneur Chart that reminds me of Jeff Bezos‘ Chart (but Bezos has much better money luck). Vivek’s Chart is a classic business Chart, and on top of that, he has two communication Supertalents, in the form of Yang and Yin Wood.

Dragon and Monkey bring Water structure, which, combined with Earth Element, builds a Creativity Talent Bridge, indicating high creative abilities and intelligence.

Regarding his political ambitions, he would need Fire Element to bring him Power Component and Leadership Talent Bridge, but he has none, not even in his Dynamic Luck. So his campaign seems driven mainly by his communication skills and his appeal to an educated crowd. I doubt he will be able to switch from business to politics and obtain the actual political power necessary for such a high position.

It could be that the whole effort is to increase his overall visibility, which will land him other positions and business opportunities, but I could be wrong. We don’t know his real motives; maybe he truly wants to raise awareness of specific issues, but at some point, he’ll have to face the reality that his political ambitions are a bit far-fetched. He is intellectualizing social issues, but that is too high-level for most people. What people want these days is a power struggle, a cage fight, to be entertained. Regardless of his good intentions, people like Vivek don’t have much chance in such a low-intellect, dog-eats-dog environment.
