Pluto ---Ready or Not Pluto Station Direct October 11

 

Pluto Station Direct

This is by far, in my opinion, the signature astrological event of the month and year.  

 

At the risk of hyperbole (although it is worth the risk) we should anticipate something big around this date.   Back in 2008, Pluto had retrograded into Sagittarius then in September it stationed direct and headed for Capricorn.   Within a week of turning direct, the stock market crashed and launched the worldwide grand recession.  “Oh, Pluto in Capricorn you really aren’t subtle, are you?”     

 

So here we are now, 16 years later and Pluto is doing the exact same thing. It is stationing direct on October 11 and heading for a fresh sign where it will be for a long time.   Along the way on October 22 the Sun in Libra will square Pluto in Capricorn for the final time until Pluto returns to Cap in 240+ years.   Libra is about diplomacy and finding a way to listen to others and hear different perspectives.  Pluto in Capricorn is all about power in big business, big government and big agencies and does not usually care about other people’s opinions.  This is a rub.  

 

How will Pluto get our attention?   Earlier this year we got a taste of it.  The microchip in the brain announced in January, the battle around TikTok, AI, blue screens of death with a poorly designed software update, airplane and flights were in the news and sure always the UFO talk. 😊     New versus old, then old versus new, there is so much to contemplate in the Aquarius leaving Capricorn landscape.  On November 19, Pluto will re-enter Aquarius where it will be for twenty years so we should anticipate another noisy event perhaps around innovation, tech, big thinking societal groups, electricity, power lines, computers, the internet, broadcasting, aviation and social media.   However, never lose sight that Saturn is the original ruling planet of both Capricorn and Aquarius.  Somewhere in all the mess, is Saturn and his divine timing (especially in Pisces) probably saying, “Bless this mess.”
