God and Nancy Reagan

Yesterday was Nancy Reaganâ??s funeral, and The Washington Post ran a reminder story of the controversy surrounding her astrologer, Joan Quigley, who died in 2014.  After Don Regan was fired as White House chief of staff his 1988 memoir angrily exposed how plotting President Reaganâ??s schedule was complicated by Nancyâ??s insistence that she first consult Quigley. Referred to Nancy by mutual friend Merv Griffin, on whose 1970s talk show Quigley was a regular, Quigley was an old money California Republican who thought Ronald Reagan from the start had a â??brilliantâ? horoscope foretelling his greatness.  Quigley had claimed to Griffin that she could have warned the President that the day he was shot in 1981 would be dangerous, a claim Griffin passed to Nancy.
