Michael Lutin’s video on YOUTUBE makes Pluto’s run through Capricorn accessible, meaningful and humorous. That is not to say that he dismisses the depth of Pluto’s role and how we will experience it via power, structures, institutions, corporations, governing, and so on. That wouldn’t be a practice of authentic astrology.

Lutin humanizes what we sense as dire by drawing in Uranus’s transit into Aries and how Mars ruled Aries will confront the power excesses of Saturn ruled Pluto in Capricorn. Let’s not forget Saturn’s transit into Venus ruled Libra — Madam Justice. How about dumping that FISA bill and restoring America’s rule of law!?

The coming grand square (USA’s Cancerian planets) point to a dynamic, vibrant…..[dare I say it?] Renaissance! That is not to say getting there won’t involve struggle. Some of the struggle will surely be earth-bound and earth-oriented. That’s Pluto’s Capricorn transit role in our evolution as a people, a country and a world. What forms of tyranny will we be liberating ourselves from this time? First it was King George’s tyranny coupled with his corrupt, crushing commerce in the 13 colonies. What will we throw off after King George Bush’s 8 years of appalling destruction? [Also our 200+years of the doctrine of “manifest destiny” which, in short, states that we have the right to acquire and consume anything and everything no matter who we kill, or what we destroy because Jesus told us so].

The recasting of America, The retrieval of her legacy, the demise of her predatory capitalism and ruthlessness consumerism have to undergo a vast reformation if we as a species, nation and globe are going to survive. Indeed, I add the welfare of animal entities and plant species to those of us that sorely need our love and advocacy. Neptune in Aquarius in mutual reception with Uranus in Pisces says to me — in part — that the group (Aquarius) needs to spiritualize it’s vision towards a radically (Uranus) new level of understanding of how animal entities are co-equal with us in the fabric of life. We on this list do that, but we live in a wide world where far too many don’t.

My take is that Uranus moving to Aries [making 7 squares to Pluto in Cap!] is going to tear up the old rug and lay down a whole new matrix.

I’m actually jazzed about this. Kinda scared too. But I wouldn’t miss this ride for anything.

Take heart. We’re going to prevail.
