Pluto in Capricorn:

PLUTO IN CAPRICORN - OVERVIEW: Pluto rules power and mis-use of power. Pluto is also the energy, the motives, the integrity of the purpose of using Pluto's power. Pluto also rules the issues of the motives that are hidden within the person wielding power. Words can easily be used as a front, but it is Pluto's energy and motives that point to the real purpose, the real goals for utilizing energy. These deep motives, even if they are unseen, will at certain times explode similar to the volcanic explosion that reveals the elements deep within.

Pluto often brings us situations that contain issues of power, in which we fear power greater than ourselves and thus we have to rise to the occasion to make the inner power greater and stronger than the outer powers. An example of this is the fear of outer authority and we must respond to situations in which outer authority comes into our life and our inner confidence or inner strength has to be stronger than the outer situations. This response to situations becomes the trial by fire methods in which Pluto works.

The outer authority and outer power can be a positive source of competition or a person in a position of power who is misusing their position to wield their power in inappropriate ways to cause harm to others. The purpose for this outer power and the motives for this outer power becomes the Pluto issue. The motives, ethics, integrity and values that come with the use or mis-use of power are hidden from view, however they are known by the person and ultimately become visible as the intention is continued over time, setting a precedence that speaks of it's own accord.

Our response to power greater than ourselves, whether real or perceived, becomes our intention as well. We can respond to situations with equal harmful ways or choose to grow inner qualities and outer expressions greater than those expressed by those in power positions. An athlete can respond to the marathon of hills by bringing more strength and more endurance to meet the challenges, or veer from the race with intention to not continue or to cheat in some way or another. Similarly a person in positions of power can wield this power to fulfil responsibilities in the highest order, or become mesmerized by their own self-proclaimed position and take aim at others they feel jealous or hateful toward, and skew the game board of life to their own advantage.

PLUTO IN PREVIOUS SIGN OF SAGITTARIUS: Pluto has been in the previous sign of Sagittarius since November 1995. Sagittarius represents honesty, integrity, philosophy, beliefs, religion, higher education, teaching and knowledge, laws both inner and outer, goals, plans and aspirations. Thus the issues that we had been dealing with since 1995 have entailed the religious power or mis-use of religious beliefs of the fanatic Islamics, Christians, Catholics, Hindus and others that have met with real or perceived power by fueling their own hatred, jealousies with a response of greater power that is harmful to others. The wars in which we have today, as Pluto's last several degrees of Sagittarius represented the problematic issues of Sagittarius in which the use and mis-use of power is taking precedence over our headlines.

In our own lives, we experienced the issues of Pluto in Sagittarius by way of using our own honesty, integrity, philosophy, beliefs as a response to the different powers in our life. The issues we meet with were not as important as what our response to these power issues. With an inundation of powers used against us for no reason or as an unfairness that has come into our life, we can be assured that this is the hill that we have to climb to become stronger and more powerful than the outer elements. Each person had their own custom made issues since Pluto came into Sagittarius, November 1995, and once Pluto moved out of Sagittarius and into Capricorn on November 26, 2008,many of these issues somehow were moved to a weight station or to resolution.

The individuals that felt the most challenge with Pluto's power of intensity and forced growth were the doorway signs, those who had key planets that were SQUARE (like a doorway), pushing the person through the intensity with growth as the results. The doorway signs while Pluto was in Sagittarius were; Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces. If Sun, Moon, or rising were any of these, the challenge would have been felt very strong. Additionally while Uranus was in Pisces March 2003 to March 2011, the added intensity to these very same doorway signs would have also contained the Uranus "testing of a disciple" type of events. Many of the unfair scenarios would have been placed in the individuals life to not punish or harm, but to test the RESPONSE to see whether the qualities met with the outer "authority" would have been to veer one away from the spiritual path or to continue to walk the PATH OF TRUTH with each and every situation.

Our response to these custom-made Pluto in Sagittarius events showed our honesty, integrity, philosophy, beliefs and intentions. There are responses to situations that covered the spectrum. Important is the individuals that during this time have picked up positions of power and have wielded these positions against others and have not build any inner qualities except to enlarge their hate, anger and enjoyment of others pain and anguish. Whatever we created during this Pluto in Sagittarius will become the road that we will find as Pluto moved into Capricorn November 2008. For many who misused their power, their road will begin to veer into environments that are no longer "controllable". Similar to their inner plank that others were pushed off of in order to rid their world of others they did not favor. For many who were at the end of the callous and cruel swords of power who have fought valiantly against such mis-use of power by growing inner qualities greater than the fear of the sharp sword, the ground will swell with heightening values to find a different advantage.

Once Pluto entered Capricorn we will watch many events expose the hidden elements as they come to the surface of the integrity, honesty, beliefs, intentions and the use or mis-use of philosophy, religion and power. This showing of the deep ethics will continue while Pluto is in Capricorn. Many events cause explosive transitions in outer situations, which bring all hidden elements out into the open. This revealing process creates huge issues of scandals, mis-use of power, corruption of dealings within industries, such as within business, government, international organizations and financial industries. Once this explosion takes place the magma of ethics, integrity, motives and intentions will come spewing out to create our new pathway according to the qualities we have used.

PLUTO IN CAPRICORN SQUARE URANUS IN ARIES - MARCH 2011 THROUGH 2018

Once Pluto entered Capricorn we have been shifting our focus toward the transformation of the "structures" of the outside world; wallstreet, businesses and all of the structures of success and accomplishment in the outside world. Pluto has shifted the terrain to revise the financial structures, the business structures and the government structures. We are in the phase of experiencing all of these structures as a way that has become very unpredictable and are transforming in the situations and circumstances that have created this shifting terrain. Once Uranus moves into Aries on March 11, 2011, the Uranus winds of change will begin to blow wildly and create the square to Pluto in Capricorn. This begin a seven year time inwhich the square of Pluto and Uranus push situations into a time of great intensity. Pluto in Capricorn prompts transformation of business, government and financial "structures". Uranus brings the whirling energies of change that push us out of the comfort zone and force the TRUE SELF to emerge. No facade will last during this time of whirling change. This whirling resembles the turning of events to push coins into their particular slot according to their value; pennys go into the penny slots, dimes go into the dime slot and quarters go into the quarter slot, all according to the true value. This square process of Pluto and Uranus will push many people to lose their facade and to reveal their TRUE SELF in the situations that bring out the real inner self. This square process begins on January 22, 2011 as Jupiter opens the Aries floodgates and as circumstances rush into the current environment, Uranus brings in the whirling winds of change to shift each into their true place. Once within their true place, each grows and builds or subtracts from where they are. The doorway signs that will have the opportunity to grow through challenge are those with key planets (Sun, Moon and Rising Sign) in ARIES, CANCER, LIBRA and CAPRICORN. Other planetary placements will be affected as well, especially as impacted by Uranus and Pluto. The focus will be to force the TRUE SELF to emerge. Whether over inflated or undervalued, each will have to come into inner and outer alignment. To find the areas that this alignment takes place, looking at the placement of Pluto shows the qualities that have to emerge in strength and Uranus shows the area that will become the environment experiencing the greatest of changes, whirling winds of change.

Pluto enters Capricorn on November 26, 2008 where it will stay until 2023.

PREVIOUS TIMES OF PLUTO IN CAPRICORN

This long, extended stay of Pluto in Capricorn (2008 - 2023) will completely revise the power issues and issues of authority. The last time Pluto was in Capricorn was from 1762 to 1779, which included the founding of our country to gain the freedom against the oppression from the King of England. Now our power issues will once again reveal similar issues that were addressed with "taxation without representation", the War of Regulation from 1764 to 1771 against corrupt colonial officials, The Stamp and Sugar Act which tried violators in Admiralty court where the defendants were considered guilty until they could prove their innocence. The Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights and Articles of the Constitution built from the Magma Carter written to set the parameters and rules of freedom and independence. We will find ourselves in the same boat of addressing the oppressive and corrupt power issues that have been used against people and to revolutionize the checks and balances required for the rightful use of power.

The Capricorn States (when the specific State entered into the U.S. Union) will become the focus and subject of the most changes, transitions, potential scandals and ultimate revisions. They are;

Iowa - December 28, 1846
Texas - December 29, 1845
Georgia - January 2, 1788
Alaska - January 3, 1959
Utah - January 4, 1896
New Mexico - January 6, 1912
Connecticut - January 9, 1788

February 2012 Highlights

February is universally a SEVEN* month (in numerology* terms). SEVEN represents new realizations and a new level of understanding, which is a primary occurrance during the SEVEN month. The SEVEN requires that we have face-to-face realizations that give us a new awareness and understanding. The typical response to the SEVEN energy is to think that we are suddenly depressed rather than realizing that we are being called to listen to the inner voice providing important guidance through being aware. To be attentive on an inner level is important during the SEVEN month as many pieces of information, guidance and awareness come into focus, which is the gift of the SEVEN month.

Transition into the FIVE year of 2012

2012 is universally a FIVE year. Change, breakthrough and freedom becomes the energy of the new year. We have finally reached the summit of the FIVE year, as the long, dark, cold climb of the last four years, since 2008, has finally graced us with the rays of light of 2012. The light pulls us forward and gives us the chance to see that the summit has awaited our arrival to grant us a view of the mid-point of our nine-year journey. We can see how high we have climbed and traverse across the summit to see the stunning view of the other side where sunshine, the rolling green hills and the roads will take us to the next phase of our journey. The FIVE year changes many things about our life and to finally get to the FIVE year of 2012 becomes the shift that renews our optimism and excitement about life.
