Transits United States of American Right now Pluto Is conjunct the natal Ascendant, this is a very powerful aspect that indicates huge emotional releases@ their is a stronger awareness of the environment and exceptional tasks may be performed ( quote from roadmap to your future ). This is a time to understand the working of the inner life, a time to learn now patience's with oneself. Pluto to the Ascendant can indicate a time of personal danger and threats to the life or personal well being, but it also a time of change total transformation of oneself. Pluto in this position can bring about anger, feelings of betrayal and a need to protect the self, but it also gives the ability to overcome any obstacle. At the same time Saturn is opposing Pluto in the sky and opposing the natal Ascendant, this is also a very difficult contact. The Saturn Pluto opposition brings a sense of ruthlessness, this can be from others since Saturn is opposing from the descendant, its a time of restriction, this is a transit of crisis. But like the Pluto conjunct the Ascendant this contact gives powerful abilities to overcome anything and to accomplish anything, a sense of personal power is strong and can be focused. These two planets together can create a total focus and discipline so the changes needed to be made can be accomplished. On a more negative tone this aspect can create fear, especially fear of the future. Ideally these planets are working together to join power and responsibility, its a time to define goals a reflective time, a time to change habits we no longer need, a time to change our approach to live and its circumstances. This aspect can also attract those into our life who try to dominate us or change us, so that strong sense of self and the ability we have will be important and needs to be hung onto. One of the more negative sides of this contact can be hatred especially of those that are different, we may attempt to force our ideas and opinions on other, or others may try to do this to us. The Full Moon of Sept. 2, set off this opposition in the United States chart, creating a T- square between the first, seventh, third and ninth houses The transiting Jupiter is conjunction the natal Sun and natal Jupiter, so this is a time when we can create a better future, if we use all the difficult energy properly. Jupiter is a planet that makes everything it touches expand, since its near the eighth house of this chart it brought a great loss of life. Jupiter will protect us, and in many ways this contact indicates how lucky we really were, since without Jupiter's protection we would have had a much more sever problem. Uranus is getting ready to conjunct the natal Moon of this chart and the contact will be exact in March of 2003@ this will be a time of emotional insecurity. Their may be shocks and surprises that effect us strongly on an emotional level, we may find the people of our country reacting on emotion instead of logic. This contact will also bring with it the fear of the changes it predicts, we may rebel against things that need to be done or changes we need to make in our life. Since the Moon is in the third the media will have much to say. This contact can also bring an excitement, and probably Increase our feelings of patriotism. I am concerned this contact could indicate more problems with air travel, explosives and surprise attacks to our country. In the near terms the planet Mars is making a move to our natal Pluto, since Pluto is in the second house, I do think all this talk to attacking the terrorists bank accounts will become a reality, but I also think we will find the economy of this country hard press for the time being. Our country has a fundamentally strong chart when it comes to financial matters so all should turn out fine, but we will be stressed pretty strongly for the next few months. When Mars does contact Pluto 9/30/01, ( give or take a few days ), I am concerned that the anger that Is now starting to be expressed will reach a point of explosion, we may find many more hate crimes, and we may find we are again in danger of being attacked. Their is also a strong possibility we will make some of those sneak attacks that are being talked about. Mars Pluto in Capricorn will release a very directed energy and a very powerful energy, Mars contacts Pluto every two years, so on Its own this contact would not be of major importance, but under the current circumstances I think it takes an much more importance. The energy of these two planets will allow us to overcome anything thrown our way and we may feel its time to take our revenge. The current administration may got pressure from the people of this country to do something that sends a strong message. This conjunction will also be opposing the natal Sun and Jupiter so we will feel very strongly as a nation that we have undergone a big injustice (we have), and something needs to be done about it. I tend to think the last week of Sept, in the first week or two of Oct will be a very tense time in the nation, and possibility a time of military action. The transiting Saturn will go over our natal Mars by next spring, this indicates a deeper and longer lasting aggression. This is a contact of courage and determination a sustained energy that can stay the course, but it also indicates a time of conflict and strife, so I think by summer we will be involved in long term aggression. We will attain our goals with this contact, but at a cost ( isn't it always ). Since this contact is in our natal seventh house, we should have many partners to help us. These planets together are another formidable force, they give staying power and a strong focus. Their will also be much fear in the country, but people will work on their inner strength. The planet Uranus will be conjunct the progressed Sun this year, so we will under many fundamental changes in this country, we will change our outlook on life. We will find we need to change many things, and will have the ability to make those changes. Who may be perceived differently than usual since as a country we are undergoing so many changes, we are maturing and will become more comfortable with our new persona. This Aquarian influence will have us feeling as if we are the rescuers of the world, and we very well may be. Their will be many unexpected events. The progressed Sun will also be conjunct the natal Moon so we are in the cycle of now starts, after all the dust settles we will find we are a changed people, hopefully with a more tolerant outlook on life. One other concern I have is the transiting Neptune will conjunct the nodes of the United States, Germ warfare?? |
