The Epochal Transits of 2009 - 2014

Much has been written about the daunting transits that signal the millennium’s entry into its second decade. As we analyze these world-altering configurations we notice the symbolism of the various planets converging into a synthesis, and the whole becoming more than the sum of its parts.

It is from the vast, slow-moving outer-planet cycles (Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) that we expect the most far-reaching effects; and when these make major aspects with the social planets (Jupiter and Saturn) as well as with the personal planets (such as the Moon and Mars) at the same time, the rarity of the patterns that result puts them into a category that deserves a unique degree of awe, respect and attention.

There will be a series of Grand Crosses in the summer of 2010 --one of which occurs a few days after the solstice, with seven planets participating. The square between Uranus and Pluto will form the backdrop, with Jupiter coupled with Uranus in early Aries and a Moon conjunction with Pluto in Capricorn adding a late-breaking note of immediacy. Saturn in late Virgo will form the third corner, and the Sun and Mercury, in Cancer, will form the fourth. This will give the solstice period -- already considered a sacred portal for many spiritual thinkers, ancient and modern -- the quality of a bulls-eye. Two years later, the Grand Cross of June 2012 will feature the ongoing square between Uranus and Pluto now joined by the Quarter Moon; meanwhile Neptune will have entered Pisces, and will be forming an exact mutable T-square with Jupiter, reinforced by the lunar nodes. By 2014 the two outer-planet overlords will have made their way to the middle degrees of the cardinal signs, paralleling a square between Mars and Jupiter in Libra and Cancer respectively; with a Moon-Pluto conjunction on April 20th again providing the grace note.

I recommend it highly.

The article offers readers in-depth contemporary astrology, setting out plainly an informed commentary on the big transit patterns unfolding from the present moment on into the future.

May 27 is a critial focal point that is just around the corner in earth time.

Wednesday, May 27 is the first date for three planets which are now transiting Aquarius. of the Neptune, Jupiter and Chiron. This triple conjunction happening right on the USA's Aquarian Moon, the Moon being a key planet for a Cancerian nation born on the Fourth of July. The article offers much more beyond this -- giving intelligent, authentic voice to the songs sung by the planets and stars.

Thanks for the link, Katty, and thanks also to Jessica Murrays Mothersky for your illuminated overview.

Obama's supreme court nominee will get an OK -- but much wrangling before--this conjunction in Aquarius will quite an earthquake.....most necessary.

Thanks for pointing her out - just put a request for her book, the Soul Sick Nation, on hold at the library.

I believe that the bold-ed parts (at least) are nearly inevitable.

Popular Dissent

Uranus in Aries is going to give the world a seven-year lesson in new ways to challenge authority, and its square with Pluto can be expected to raise this defiance to a fever pitch. Pluto pushes whatever planet it touches to extremes, and pumps it full of power. This presents a disturbing picture of social unrest unless we consider the powerful creative change that comes of spiritually informed dissent. Our work as conscious creators of the world we want must involve visualizing a fiery Uranus worth empowering.

When we imagine the sign Aries at its highest -- not the ego-driven warmonger but the fearless pioneer -- we have an appropriate archetype with which to characterize Uranus’ new model of leadership. This kind of leadership is not just irascible, but mindfully iconoclastic: Uranus has been linked with the myth of Prometheus, the divine outlaw who broke rank in order to bring fire to humanity. Optimally used, Uranus in Aries will provide the people of the world with the courage to shake off whatever political, economic and social circumstances that have grown oppressive. Many will feel the impulse to assert (Aries) their vision of democracy (Uranus) rather than just talk and argue about it. Pluto will provide the life-or-death circumstances that make this a requirement.

Pluto’s pressure upon Uranus suggests the will of the citizenry to throw off its passivity and to become boldly pro-active. Forward-looking Uranian individuals will be prompted to perform from the core of their beings. The adolescent infighting that afflicts so many progressive movements has the chance, now, to change relatively suddenly, and be replaced by coalitions of mature and responsible social reformers.

Ultimately, the puerile arrogance of contemporary humanity itself – that aspect of the modern personality that imagines it should dominate Nature simply because it can – will be given a dose of Pluto’s cold, dark comeuppance when the square becomes activated.

from Jim Marrs ... people with good hearts need to band together and forget about all the little tedious impediments TPTB have promoted, social wedge issues. They are NOTHING compared to owning up to the power of the people and strengthening the Republic and what it stands for, freedom, liberty, equality. We've got to overlook our differences and bind together on a higher ideal.

One does not need to be versed in astrology to love her book: Soul Sick Nation, an astrologer's view of America... and to be unable to put it down...Jessica so clearly elucidates, using a cosmic perspective, all that is happening in this time of our experience, on multilevels ... and what our solutions are....
