Pluto in Pisces

I watched an interesting video on YouTube in which remote viewing of the future was discussed. Here is a link to it. One prediction that struck me was that there would be a major event or series of events between 2040 and 2045 that would have profound effect on the planet and its inhabitants. People decades later would still be getting over it. 

With a lot of astrological focus being on Pluto entering Aquarius, it occurred to me to look at when Pluto enters Pisces because this would mark a dissolution of the existing order in preparation for the planet's entry into Aries. Figure 1 shows a table of Pluto's movements over the coming decades.

Figure 1: source

As can be seen, Pluto first enters Pisces in March of 2043. It stays there until September of the same year before retrograding into Aquarius. It enters Pisces again in January of 2044 and remains there until June of 2066. I probably won't be around to experience whatever happens. It's now March of 2023 and I'm approaching my 74th birthday. In March of 2043, I'd be approaching my 94th birthday. My grandfathers, maternal and paternal, survived to around that age so it's possible I guess. 

It's interesting to speculate what the nature of the upheavals might be in 2040 to 2045 and the video mentioned earlier doesn't reveal much. I'll see if I can find out more details that might have been revealed by other remote viewers. Figure 2 shows a chart for Pluto's entry into Pisces on March 9th 2043.

Perhaps I'll have more to say about this later.

The Age of Aquarius

I've been writing about Pluto entering Aquarius and staying there for two decades but I got thinking about the so-called Age of Aquarius and when it might begin. The Platonic Year has a length of about 25800 years with each Age being about 2150 year in duration. Each Age can be divided into twelve subdivisions, each of 180 years duration. The subdivisions are named in zodiacal order. I first learned about this from Charles Carter, the famous British astrologer, in one of his books.

Bearing this in mind, let's consider the current Age of Pisces and when it might start and finish. If we can decide on this, then we will know when the Age of Aquarius will begin. We need to look for clear markers and one that stands out for me in the Black Death. To quote from Wikipedia:

The Black Death (also known as the Pestilence, the Great Mortality or the Plague) was a bubonic plague pandemic occurring in Western Eurasia and North Africa from 1346 to 1353. It is the most fatal pandemic recorded in human history, causing the deaths of 75–200 million people, peaking in Europe from 1347 to 1351. Bubonic plague is caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis spread by fleas, but during the Black Death it probably also took a secondary form, spread by person-to-person contact via aerosols causing septicaemic or pneumonic plagues. The Black Death was the beginning of the second plague pandemic. The plague created religious, social and economic upheavals, with profound effects on the course of European history.

This event clearly had to do with Scorpio and so what if we take 1350 as the start of the Scorpio subdivision of the Age of Pisces. This produces a timeline as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1

This seems reasonable to me and the Aquarius subdivision begins in 1890 and closely coincides with the birth of Meher Baba is 1894. See my post The Awakener. In this timeline, the Aquarius subdivision will end in 2070 and the final Pisces subdivision will begin. It can be noted that Meher Baba dropped his body in 1969 and he said that he would remain active for a hundred years following his passing. After this, He said that the Perfect Masters of the time would become more visible.

Hopefully this final Piscean phase of the Age of Pisces will see an increase in compassion to counteract the soulless dystopia into which the Aquarian phase has led us. More likely though, it will usher in a period of disintegration brought about God only knows what. Disease, infertility, natural disasters? 

Let's not forget that the Scorpio subdivision of the Age of Pisces was not only about death and disease. To quote from the Encyclopedia Britannica:

There is some debate over the actual start of the Renaissance. However, it is generally believed to have begun in Italy during the 14th century, after the end of the Middle Ages, and reached its height in the 15th century.

The Sagittarian subdivision encompassed the so-called Age of Discovery:

The Age of Exploration (also called the Age of Discovery) began in the 1400s and continued through the 1600s. It was a period of time when the European nations began exploring the world. Source.

It also encompasses the so-called Enlightenment or Age of Reason:

The Age of Enlightenment or the Enlightenment was an intellectual and philosophical movement that dominated Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries with global influences and effects. Source.

The Age of Materialism certainly took hold in the 18th and 19th century, corresponding to the Capricorn subdivision and gave way to the Aquarian subdivision as the 19th century ended. I think the subdivisions from Scorpio onward accord well with history but I haven't looked closely at what happened beforehand.  I write more about that in a later post.

More About Pluto in Aquarius

A year ago, in a post titled Pluto in Aquarius, I wrote the following in reference to Pluto's entry into Aquarius on March 24th 2023:

Pluto will remain in Aquarius only until June 11th 2023. It's return to Capricorn may mark a lull in the pace of change but when Pluto returns to Aquarius on January 21st 2024, to begin its twenty-year passage through the sign, the pace of change will accelerate and the technocratic dream will move closer and closer to reality.

This is not entirely accurate because, even though Pluto does reenter Aquarius on the date stated, it retrogrades to Capricorn yet again from September 1st 2024 until November 19th 2024. Once it reenters Aquarius, it will remain in that sign until 2043.

Dates may be a day off due to time zones

I also make the following observation in that post about Saturn's entry into Pisces on March 8th 2023:

... when Pluto enters Aquarius in March of 2023, Saturn has already entered Pisces. It will remain in Pisces until it enters Aries on May 25th 2025.  That two year period should mark a dissolution of many of the old systems and structures of the past as Pluto wipes the slate clean so that humanity can enter a technocratic utopia or dystopia, depending on your point of view.

In a later post in October of 2022 titled More About Pluto's Peregrinations, I wrote:

Getting back to Pluto's astrological significance, the great conjunction of mid-January 2020 that kicked the whole scamdemic nightmare involved the Sun, Ceres, Mercury, Saturn and Pluto. Clearly Saturn and Pluto are the long term players here and remarkably, given the divergence of the latter from the plane of the ecliptic, the latitudes were almost the same (+0°02' and -0°40' respectively) at the time of conjunction. The synodic cycle of the two planets is about 38 years and so the semi-square and square will be significant as well as the entry of Pluto into Aquarius.

Should we consider the semi-square of Saturn to the original conjunction point or should we consider the relative positions between the transiting Saturn and transiting Pluto. Probably both are significant. On June 17th of 2023, Saturn will turn stationary retrograde in 7°12' of Pisces with 7°50' of Pisces being the exact semi-square between Saturn and its original position. Pluto will enter Aquarius on March 24th of 2023 for a few short months before returning to Capricorn on June 12th 2023 ... Looking ahead I'd say that the period from March 2023 until June 2023 will be quite active as the global mafia attempts to push forward with its agenda.

Saturn will enter Pisces on March 8th 2023 which only adds more weight to the importance of the March to June period.

So far as March goes, we do seem to be getting a sneek preview of the transformations to come as some banks in the USA are collapsing and needing to be bailed out by the Fed. The movements of Pluto certainly give some idea of the rhythm of the transformation with deliberate overlap of months to show the gradual transitions.

• March 2023 to June 2023: a sneek preview of the new system with the frailties of the old system on full display. Pluto in Aquarius.
  
  
• June 2023 to January 2024: the old system struggles on but is clearly on life support. Pluto in Capricorn.
  
  
• January 2024 to September 2024: the new system reveals itself more fully and the inevitable death of the old system becomes more apparent. Pluto in Aquarius.
  
  
• September 2024 to November 2024: some changes are put on hold as a brief respite is called before the new system is rolled out. Pluto in Capricorn.
  
  
• November 2024 onwards: it's full steam ahead now as the old structures have been fully dismantled and the new system is embraced but perhaps "thrust upon us" is a more accurate description. Pluto in Aquarius.

The new system will inevitably involve CBDCs and most people will be grateful. Months of bank collapses, lost pension funds and financial chaos will dispose people to accept the promise of a solution in the form of a CBDC. The full implications of the system will not become apparent until the programmable nature of this digital money becomes apparent. Governments will begin to apply restrictions on how the money can be spent. Fines can be imposed instantly and it will up to the individual to challenge them and try to recover the money. Accounts can be frozen without notice or justification. The more dictatorial the government, the more extreme the restrictions but all governments will exercise this power to a greater or less degree.

Pluto in Aquarius

The tiny size of the menu text in Astrolog has resolved itself and I've created a new database in Airtable for my lost data. I'm gradually rebuilding my former charts in Astrolog but the initial data will always be there in Airtable should disaster strike. Figure 1 shows a chart for the entry of Pluto into Aquarius, that should take place on March 24th 2023. This is only a little over a year away.

Figure 1

Pluto is moving at the rate of about 1 minute of arc per day. This is when the changes promised by the Great Reset will really start to be felt by a suffering humanity. Pluto will remain in Aquarius only until June 11th 2023. It's return to Capricorn may mark a lull in the pace of change but when Pluto returns to Aquarius on January 21st 2024, to begin its twenty-year passage through the sign, the pace of change will accelerate and the technocratic dream will move closer and closer to reality.

The following source has some interesting observations to make about not only Pluto but also Neptune and Uranus:

The years 2024, 2025, and 2026 (when looked at as one cohesive period) delineate the beginning of the next global chapter following the breakdown brought on by the January 2020 Saturn-Pluto conjunction.

Why? Because that is when the three transpersonal planets (Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto) will change signs. Due to their slow speeds, it’s rare to see these three planets change signs back-to-back.

In my eyes, this major shift in the mid 2020s means we’ll still be dealing with COVID-19 — as a global village — in some fashion until then. That isn’t fear-mongering. It’s just a fact. Some nations will recover much more quickly than others. But, others will need until then to return to something that resembles pre-pandemic life. I also think we will see many COVID-19-related public health measures in effect until early 2024. Astrologically, 2024 is the beginning of the “post-COVID era.”

The author then goes on to describe the future movements of Neptune and Uranus:

Neptune will pay a brief visit to Aries from March 30, 2025 until October 22, 2025. However, it begins its uninterrupted twelve-year sojourn through Aries (considered the official start of the “Neptune in Aries era”) on January 26, 2026.

Uranus will dip its toe in Gemini from July 7, 2025 until November 8, 2025. However, its uninterrupted six-and-a-half-year sojourn through Gemini (considered the official start of the “Uranus in Gemini era”) kicks off on April 26, 2026.

For what it's worth, the author looks back at what happened last time Neptune and Uranus were in these same signs:

Consider these events that happened the last time Neptune was in Aries (1861 to 1875):

• Opioids (Neptune) are used to treat troops during the Civil War (Aries); many became addicted
• Formation of the Prohibition Party — essentially a war (Aries) on alcohol (Neptune)
• The Suez Canal opened, linking the Red and Mediterranean Seas
• First use of submarines in warfare
• Introduction of pasteurization — applying heat (Aries) to kill pathogens (Neptune).
• The 13th Amendment is officially ratified in the United States — compassion toward other human beings (Neptune) is turned into something actionable (Aries).
• Russia abolishes serfdom (same as above).
• The American Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is founded
• Formation of the International Red Cross — a pioneering (Aries) organization that helps others (Neptune).
• The HMS Challenger surveys the deepest point in the oceans
• Impressionism begins. This art (Neptune) movement is characterized by bold (Aries) colors as well as the inclusion of movement (Aries).

Events that occurred when Uranus transited Gemini from 1858 to 1866:

• First aerial (Gemini is an air sign) photograph
• Development and production of first traction engine
• Production of first gas engine
• First recording of a human voice
• Invention (and patent) of attaching an eraser to the end of a pencil
• Invention of escalator
• Invention of postcards
• Invention of quad skates
• Invention of rotary printing machine
• Invention of first practical typewriting machine

Events that occurred when Uranus transited Gemini from 1941 to 1949:

• The first test fights of many operational military jet aircraft
• Development, and patenting, of first disposable aerosol cans
• Invention of first “instant” (at that time, 60 seconds) camera: Polaroid. Gemini is ruled by Mercury, which is all about speed.
• Invention of the microwave (very “Gemini,” as a microwave allows for very quick cooking)
• Invention of the hand dryer (Gemini is an air sign and also rules the hands!)

While this list may be a little facile, I like the idea of looking back at astrological history as a way of making mundane astrology predictions more reliable. 

Looking at the chart in Figure 1, it can be seen that when Pluto enters Aquarius in March of 2023, Saturn has already entered Pisces. It will remain in Pisces until it enters Aries on May 25th 2025.  That two year period should mark a dissolution of many of the old systems and structures of the past as Pluto wipes the slate clean so that humanity can enter a technocratic utopia or dystopia, depending on your point of view.

Figure 2 shows the entry of Saturn into Aries with Neptune and Ceres very near. New structures and systems will emerge, especially regarding food resources (the domain of Ceres).

Figure 2

Interesting times ahead, that's for sure.

Saturn Square Uranus

2021 will be marked by three successive squares between transiting Saturn and Uranus: status quo faces off against the inevitability of change. Normally, this might be viewed as a good thing but what if the status quo is the way of life we once knew and the change is the imposition of technocratic Orwellian state. 

One square between the two planets has already occurred around February 17th in 7° Aquarius/Taurus. See Figure 1.

Figure 1

The next will occur around June 15th in 13° Aquarius/Taurus. See Figure 2. Transiting Ceres will also be conjunct Uranus in 14°. Given the connection of Ceres to grains and crops, this could presage sudden and unexpected crises in the food supply. 

Figure 2

The Sabian Symbol for Aquarius 13° is a train entering a tunnel (remember in the Sabian system 0° is Sabian 1° and so 13° is Sabian 14°). Here is fuller explanation:

PHASE 314 (AQUARIUS 14°): A TRAIN ENTERING A TUNNEL.

KEYNOTE: The ability to short-cut the process of natural evolution by the exercise of will, mental skill and physical self-discipline.

In this symbol we see a condensation of what is implied in the three preceding ones. Man must be inspired by a vision of what is possible for him to achieve; he has to organise a schedule of necessary activities if the work is to be done in terms of successive moves, each requiring a specialised type of skill and strength (i.e. a hierarchy of functions); he has to find a propitious time for beginning the work. 

The end result is an acceleration of the evolutionary process, whether at the psychobiological level (that of yoga and other similar disciplines) or at the social level, i.e. the level at which, in its external aspect, civilisation proceeds.

This fourth stage symbol presents a picture of what can be achieved by a combination of social and cultural, and even personal, techniques. It implies the possibility of shortening the length of time needed for progress by cutting through obstacles and delays. The Keyword is PENETRATION. Source.

This Sabian symbol is eerily suggestive of transhumanism that does indeed seek "an acceleration of the evolutionary process". The Sabian symbol for Taurus 13° is as follows:

PHASE 44 (TAURUS 14°): ON THE BEACH, CHILDREN PLAY WHILE SHELLFISH GROPE AT THE EDGE OF THE WATER.

KEYNOTE: Returning to simpler joys for revitalisation.

This somewhat ambiguous picture suggests the way in which simultaneous activities of different natures can fill the individualising mind. The consciousness of socialised man operates at two levels, in close parallelism with what goes on in the unconscious parts of the mind (i.e. the sea). Natural urges are half conscious, half unconscious. They exist in a borderland – the wet sands still partly covered by small waves. The children play a little further away,  learning  imaginative  yet  socio-cultural games. The hardworking porter loaded with baggage should remain a little child at times and allow himself to be close to subconscious but natural urges. At least he should do so for a while until he feels surer of himself.

This symbol suggests that it is better not to attempt at once more than one can achieve through conscious and ego-driven ambition. It refers to the value, at this stage, of close contact with natural energies and simple pleasures, of a LIVE AND LET LIVE attitude. Source.

The third square will occur around December 24th in 11° Aquarius/Taurus. All squares are between the fixed signs of Aquarius and Taurus. Saturn in Aquarius is suggestive of social controls of various sorts while Taurus, with its associations with the body, is suggestive of social controls that involve the body in some way via biometrics, vaccinations etc. None of it augurs well for humanity. See Figure 3.

Figure 3

The Sabian symbol for Aquarius 11° is equally ominous:

PHASE 312 (AQUARIUS 12°): ON A VAST STAIRCASE STAND PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT TYPES, GRADUATED UPWARD.

KEYNOTE: The necessity of recognising differences of types and levels of development wherever human beings live and work together.

This symbol obviously refers to the ascending process of evolution of life forms and consciousness. It seems to apply especially to the fact that differences of levels exist among human beings. The ideal of equalitarianism has to be balanced by a realisation that hierarchy of levels is a fact of nature. 

Each person should be aware of the level at which he (or she) stands, even as he strives to move toward a higher one. He should look up for inspiration and examples, while helping the human beings of the next lower level to reach up. This is the great give-and-take of evolution, and it applies to sociocultural evolution as well as to the progression of biological species.

At this second stage of the sixty-third sequence we find a symbol of “ascent,” contrasting with the preceding one which implied a “descent” of spiritual forces. It warns us against sentimentally over-stressing our Western equalitarianism which essentially applies to the spiritual core of all individual persons, considered “sons of God” or spiritual monads. Every human being is potentially divine as an individual person, but THE NATURAL PROGRESSION OF STATES OF CONSCIOUSNESS is an unavoidable reality to accept at the social-mental level. Source.

The global elite would certainly embrace this symbol because its members would see themselves at the top of this staircase. It is the technocratic dream to impose this sort of ordering on humanity, so 2022 may herald an acceleration of this process. The Sabian symbol for Taurus 11° (Sabian 12°) is:

PHASE 42 (TAURUS 12°): A YOUNG COUPLE WINDOW-SHOPPING.

KEYNOTE: The fascination of the youthful ego with the products of its culture.

The woman waters flowers in her garden: this is the inward-turned attention of the mind revelling in its own flowering. But now we have a scene symbolising the outward longing of the ego, which has polarised itself and become “man-woman.” The “man” aspect is that part of the ego which craves direct participation with society and the world of other egos. Fully to participate requires a special kind of substantiation – and we are still in this third scene, the Keyword of which is “Substantiation.” Clothes, goods of various types, adornment, and working tools are needed. The consciousness surveys possibilities; they are defined by organic nature (personal abilities) and by the ambition to succeed in society.

This second stage is defined in contrast to the first. The ego becomes aware of what society has to offer. Its attention is turned outward. An interplay takes place between the individual and his culture. He is being moulded by what he sees and by prospects for growth in social prestige. It is a phase of SOCIALISATION OF DESIRES. Source.

Summer Solstice 2017

Here is the Greenwich-based chart for the Southern Hemisphere's Summer Solstice and Northern Hemisphere's Winter Solstice:

What's particularly noticeable and applicable world-wide is the very close conjunction between the Sun and Saturn in Capricorn. Here is the timetable of Saturn's passage over the next few years:

Saturn will occupy the sign of Capricorn from December 19, 2017 --> March 21, 2020; and then finishes up its transit from July 1 to December 17, 2020. Here are some key dates:

• December 19th, 2017 - Saturn enters Capricorn 
• March 21st, 2020 - Saturn enters Aquarius 
• July 1st, 2020 - Saturn Rx enters Capricorn Dec 17, 2020  Saturn enters Aquarius

Of course Pluto has been in Capricorn for quite some time now, entering most recently on January 26, 2008, at 2:50 AM in Greenwich Mean Time and "because of retrograde motion, Pluto backed into Sagittarius on June 14, but re-enters Capricorn on November 27, to stay in this Zodiac sign until March 2023, making its first entry in Aquarius on March 23.
So we have some fifteen years of Pluto in Capricorn" (taken from this site).

Saturn will be conjunct Pluto on January 12, 2020 at 22d37m (for one time only during the current cycle). The period around this time should be pivotal in ushering in a new world economic order.
