#Aquarius is fixed air, the emptiness of space, and the galactic consciousness. Before you think I'm going to get all alien-fixated, I'm not talking about little green men here, or greys, or Pleiadians, or any of that other woo-woo stuff that makes my own eyes glaze over any time I hear it. Instead, I am talking about the change in perspective required to transcend the limitations of our view from this tiny planet, and the likely explosion of people of means trying to get into space in order to escape the consequences of their wealth-building here on earth. Corruption in the earthly realm now shifts to become corruption in space, both outer space and the public space. And as we the common people experience the compounding results of the destruction wrought upon our material world, more and more people are likely to try to escape into the virtual world whether via augmented reality or transhumanism or some means not yet known to us, paths that will be increasingly encouraged by those who profit from them.

Yet because of their own corruption milking every company and product and idea for profit, I'm not so certain the powers-that-be can keep their charade of bread and circuses going via some mass exodus from earthly reality. As Pluto has revealed the corruption of the material world and goes on to reveal the corruption of our information, our knowledge, our "facts," and the societies we have built upon them, Pluto has been stirring up revolution, tranformation, and the awareness of our own power - first the power to persevere through Capricorn, and now the power to unite via Aquarius. As I have often said, Aquarius can be a library, or a university, or a charitable organization, but it was also the Third Reich, and it can also be an angry mob. It is no accident that the French Revolution happened during Pluto's last transit of Aquarius, with all of the necessary changes and collective power and eventual horror that brought. Make no mistake, Pluto's transformations can be both beautiful and terrifying, but whatever face Pluto shows to us, change is inevitable.

Can humanity not simply survive but thrive? Can humanity shift our understanding of reality enough to envision and make real a world in which humanity as a WHOLE benefits, rather than solely those able to climb and warp the ladder of achievement for their own ends?

The Sun AND Moon shining their light on Pluto today as all three moved from earth to air signs put these questions front and center, and asks what epistemologies and ontologies we will embody as we move forward, both individually and collectively into this new era. This is not merely an intellectual exercise, though in the process our intellect will surely metamorphosize into something unrecognizable from where we stand today."...
