Uranus Pluto: Taking a short inventory

A cursory look at the news for the last week or so and I can easily see the influence of Uranus Square Pluto (exact on 9/18).   

A week prior (as the aspect was building) American Ambassador Chris Stevens to Libya was killed during a firebomb attack of the embassy.   We all know the story by now but this attack was partly connected to the offensive video.     Yelling “fire” in a crowded theater was certainly the intent of the man who made the video and speaks to Uranus in Aries.  And it also appears to be connected to the anniversary of September 11^th.    I guess more yelling ‘fire’ from another group if you think about.   Sigh.    Of course the protests which I'm sure the man who made the video wanted to see happen---happened and it all speaks to Pluto in Capricorn.

Other news,  the videotape of Mitt Romney speaking at a private fundraiser to a crowd who ponied up $50k to hear his thoughts about 47 percent of the nation turned into a firestorm of action.    In particular those people in his own camp (GOP) who voiced serious concerns about how his team was handling the campaign.    Apparently not too well.    Nothing like making a world watch how sausage is made.   Uranus (video) versus private big money (pluto in Cap).   

And this dovetails into Romney releasing his taxes   (Pluto) for another year late on Friday.   Perhaps it puts the  issue to bed—or not.    Who knows?

Iphone5 is released in stores on Friday the 21^st.   That is all Uranus in Aries, Baby.   The crowds, the mega techno “must have” showed up days early to get their phones on.    Then two days later,  FoxConn one of the Chinese companies who supplies products for Apple including iphone components had a crazy riot.  Authorities are still not saying exactly what caused the riot. But so far it had something to do with workers and security guards.   But it is not good for Apple when something like this goes off so close to the release of iphone 5.

And then today (9/24) Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Israel has no roots in the Middle East and would be "eliminated," ignoring a U.N. warning to avoid incendiary rhetoric ahead of the annual General Assembly session.     Sigh.

In the world of mundane astrology there is plenty going out there that speaks to this harsh aspect between Uranus and Pluto.    Perhaps the heat will lessen in a month or so but right now with this aspect and the upcoming Full Moon this weekend and the Sun square Pluto oppose Uranus.  I think we need to just stay buckled up. 

ETA: 
I think I need to add the football ref strike with the NFL.   Lordy.  Our household is not a big football house but even my husband said, "What a mess!".  The replacement refs are doing a  horrible job and last night's game might be an all time low.  Two refs at the end of the game calling a pass two different ways and then waiting 10 minutes to review the tape and bringing out the team from the lockers back out on the field.   Yikes.    Apparently the lock out of the ref union has a lot to do with ref's retirement.   Pluto in Cap anyone.  And the chaos of these replacement refs who just don't have the experience to be in the big leagues speaks to the rub with Uranus in Aries.  

And on a similiar note, American Airlines and the pilots union are creating big time mess for passengers.    Contract negotiations when a company is in bankruptcy is not easy.  One of the issues is pilots forced to flying an aginging fleet.     Pluto/Uranus strikes again.
