“We would rather be ruined than changed. We would rather die in our dread than climb the cross of the moment and let our illusions die.” W.H. Auden
Wisdom Body Notes for Nov. 23-Dec. 1 by Samantha Cameron
Pluto, the dark Lord of passion, power, mystery and transformation, finally made the move we have all been longing for this year. Sadly, he did not move in time to harness his new Aquarian energy into the American election. On Nov. 5th, he stood poised on his last 29 degree-tipping point in Capricorn, squeezing the worst of Capricorn energy into the world. Nothing is inherently good or bad in Astrology. Yes, it can be difficult, life changing, sublime, seductive and everything in-between. But as Pluto is about power, here to teach us how to use it, in a final degree of any sign, he will express the worst and most damaging energies of that sign. Observing the worst of it teaches us what not to do. As an agent of change, hopefully he informs us of better sight and endurance for endings, for death and transformation of all types.
As our country moves through the coming years of fear, corruption, and darkness, will we not learn to love the light? Will we not become better prepared to invest in dreams and visions for a greater humanity? Will we not stand at one another’s backs, sword in hand? There is no better teacher of the light than the Dark Lord. “Whenever an outer planet changes signs, it initiates a shift in personal consciousness, and a shift in the Zeitgeist, the spirit of the times.” (Astrologer Stephanie Austin). While traveling through Capricorn, Pluto deconstructed social structures, revealing what was not working: The domination of wealth, entitlement, technology, devastation of the environment, and the archetype of the old patriarchal Judeo-Christian-Islamic rules that have failed us. The coming of the Age of Aquarius will change all that, not without massive evolution/revolution. But slowly we shall step into new belief systems, new archetypes, and a different reality…..for out of chaos new forms, and updated archetypes always appear.
New forms are morphing in support as we let go old behaviors and beliefs, as we grow more adept at imagining and dreaming desired outcomes. Old Man Saturn, ruler of Capricorn, archetype of ‘the boss,’ being perfect, and having an innate sense of structure is presently moving through the spirit of watery Pisces. These two trying to blend is an oxymoron, but when and if we manage, it is helping us upgrade our operating systems. Cosmic help is at hand when we are at the ready. Saturn represents the patriarchy and while in Pisces, we have opportunity to flow into another idea, form, hope for the patriarchy. Pisces energy is a creative, connective spirit, containing loss and confusion. Difficult as they two may be when combines, what a wonderful time to re-design old Saturnian archetypes. Through the collective unconscious, meditation, visions, and imagination we see the harm in living with the old order. Now that Saturn is finally moving direct, he will shift and shove us into galvanized forward moves.
Oddly, assistance may come from another slightly ‘oxymoronic’ energy- Mercury going Retrograde Monday 25th. You will feel its high ‘station vibration’ this weekend as it slows to move inward and backward for the coming three weeks, moving direct Dec. 14th. Yes, Mercury Rx can be a pain, especially with technology, information, and transportation, but this one may provide needed blessings. You know that whenever Mercury turns inward, we need to hit the pause button, re-think ideas and plans, and this one in Sagittarius, home of the higher mind, asks us to rethink core assumptions, even ethics. Sagittarian energies, ruled by great roly-poly Jupiter, opens doors to: more wisdom, spirit, wider vision, and joy. It’s a wonderful world of exploration for Mercurial consciousness to grow, despite it being ‘uncomfortable’ in Sagittarius. See if you don’t come out of this Retrograde having transformed an old belief, shed an irritating thought-pattern, even stepping up your identity.
Pisces and Sagittarian energies offer upgrades of evolutionary possibility. Both signs invite us to strengthen connection to the metaphysical, to inner guidance to move us beyond the known. As Pluto takes up residency in Aquarius for the coming 20 years we will be challenged to shift perspectives about our humanity; from us VS them to all of us from the bottom up. We will have quantum leaps in technology which we have already seen from Pluto moving in and out of Aquarius this year. In Pluto’s past cycles through Aquarius there has been revolution as the old guard is dismantled. Yes, he will reveal the shadow side of Aquarius just as he did Capricorn, but we shall build better communities, and grow resilient and discerning in our care of one another. We shall listen to and honor one another with greater focus. More important than ever is to rebuild the hopeful heart despite what the world is offering. “If there is to be any peace, it will come through being, not having.” Henry Miller
