summarize: 1840 (Capricorn conjunction)
William H. Harrison died in office of

pneumonia; 1860 (Virgo conjunction)
Abraham Lincoln elected, assassinated
while in office; 1880 (Taurus conjunction)

James Garfield assassinated while in
office; 1900 (Capricorn conjunction)

McKinley assassinated while in office;
1920 (Virgo conjunction) Warren
Harding elected, died in office of

heart attack and/or possibly ptomaine

Franklin D. Roosevelt died in office of a
cerebral hemorrhage; 1960 (Capricorn
conjunction) John F. Kennedy was

assassinated while in office.

in a different form. In 1980 (Libra
conjunction) Ronald Reagan was elected.
