A Trine to Remember

In Jakarta, at noon on Wednesday, January 13th 2021, there is a conjunction of the Sun and Moon in 23°13' of Capricorn. It falls almost exactly on the MC (22°54') with Pluto very nearby in (24°35'). Interestingly, all the planetary bodies lie within an arc of a little over 120°, bounded by Venus in 5°43' of Capricorn and Uranus, retrograde, in 6°43' of Taurus. Figure 1 shows the configuration.


Figure 1

As well as the Sun, Moon, Pluto stellium, there is another one nearby between Mercury (7°40' Aquarius, Jupiter (5°37' Aquarius) and Saturn (3°03' Aquarius). Additionally, Ceres (15°51' Pisces) and Neptune (18°45' Pisces) form doublets along with Mars (2°57' Taurus) and Uranus (6°43'R). Chiron and Venus are the only two bodies that stand alone and they form a close square. Mars-Uranus is square to Mercury-Jupiter-Saturn.

What does it all mean, for Jakarta and the rest of the world? It's certainly an energetic concentration of planets and on the days following the Moon will sweep across the gap between itself and Mars-Uranus, making various aspects as it does so. The Moon won't take long to reach the sensitive Mercury-Jupiter-Saturn stellium (the next day in fact). The Moon represents the people, suffering humanity if you will, and so perhaps it augurs badly for them as they are buffeted even more by forces beyond their control.

Let's not forget that on January 13th, it will be almost exactly a year since the fateful conjunction that precipitated the pandemic. See Figure 2.


Figure 2

As can be seen, this conjunction was almost in the same position as the forthcoming Sun-Moon conjunction in 23°13' of Capricorn. A year ago the positions (all in Capricorn) were:
  • Mercury 22°24'
  • Saturn 22°43'
  • Pluto 22°45'
  • Sun 21°26'
  • Ceres 22°19'
So it's an anniversary of sorts with the Sun returning to its position of a year ago and with Pluto pretty much in the same position as well (less than two degrees difference). Perhaps our psychopathic overlords have something surprising in store for us once again. We don't have long to wait to find out.

Saturn and Pluto Synodic Cycle

The length of the Saturn - Pluto synodic cycle varies depending on the position of Pluto in its orbit. When it is closer to the Sun, its orbital speed increases and Saturn takes longer to overtake it. Pluto was moving its faster at perihelion in 1990, when it dipped inside the orbit of Neptune. The current synodic cycle which will end in January of 2020 is of about 38 years duration.

A closer look at FIGURE 1 will show how close Saturn and Pluto are during this coming conjunction because their latitudes are almost the same (+0°02' and -0°40' respectively). Compare their proximity to that of their previous conjunction and the difference is quite marked. The author of the chart is using a heliocentric, sidereal zodiac so that's why the zodiacal signs are out of alignment. The reason for my interest in the relationship between these planets is that some sort of economic reset is anticipated in the next year or so and the forthcoming conjunction may be an indicator of its timing. Saturn rules structure, organisation and systems while Pluto oversees transformation.

As near as I can determine, the conjunction will occur at 5:13pm in Basel on January 12th 2020. Why Basel? Well, that's where the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) is located and seeing that it's regarded as the Bank of Banks, then Basel is a reasonable location. It's one hour ahead of Greenwich. The chart is an interesting one and it can be seen immediately that a confluence of synodic cycles is involved because Saturn and Pluto are joined by Mercury, the Sun and Ceres to form a tight and impressive stellium in Capricorn.

The stellium falls almost exactly on the seventh house cusp. The day is a Sunday and one can imagine a special meeting of the financial elite taking place that afternoon and a decision being reached around 5pm about what news to break to the world the next morning. On the previous Thursday, transiting Uranus turned stationary direct in 2°39' of Taurus. The Moon, ruler of the chart and representative of the general public, is in the regal sign of Leo and, fittingly, on the cusp of the second house. A very close quincunx between Uranus and Neptune in the eighth house indicates predictably that the banksters will be guilty of deception and intrigue. Figure 2 shows the chart.

So it seems to me that January 12th 2020 might be a day when big decisions are made concerning the global economy, a new digital currency perhaps for all the nations of the world. Whatever is decided of course, it will be good for the banksters and not so good for the rest of us. The larger implications of the changes may not become apparent or may not be fully implemented until the time when Saturn reaches the square to Pluto. Saturn's subsequent opposition to Pluto should reveal the full extent and consequences of the earlier initiatives.
