6 Sept 2024 #Pluto in #Tropical #Astrology: Delving into the Depths of #Transformation
Today, we'll discuss Pluto's significant position at the last degree of Capricorn and its upcoming connections with #Uranus and #Neptune. These outer planets are closely linked by harmonious aspects, making this a crucial moment to explore. We'll dive into the archetypal meanings behind these planetary combinations, using insights from Ren Butler's The #Archetypal #Universe to understand why this transit is so impactful.

'Once upon a #Forest - #Documentary #Film - #Auroville #Botanical #Gardens
The #Tropical Dry #Evergreen Forest is the rarest of forest types in #India, as it’s range is narrow and these areas have been population for many thousands of years.

Tiny fragments remain of pristine forest, protected by the local cultural practices.

Today less than 0.1 percent of the forest remains in a form that resembles what it might have been like before the arrival of humans.

At this juncture in time the forest still has an important role to play, as we attempt create a resilient environment that we are able to pass on to the next generation. The effects of climate change will be felt along the Coromandel coast of Tamil Nadu, as the intensity and frequency of cyclonic events increase. This is a forest that is adapted to the strong winds, through its dense rooting systems and low canopy height. It is a remnant, but a precious one, that has many lessons to teach us and gifts to offer, it is up to us to get to know it and receive the wealth it can provide for us.'

I visited #KewGardens the other day (if you want the formal name, they're the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew) in London. It's a large site in outer #London, technically #Surrey. It has plants from all over the world and has many large #GlassHouses to simulate various climatic conditions.

This one dates back to the mid nineteenth century and is called the #PalmHouse and houses #tropical plants.
Palm House in Kew Gardens

The conditions inside are hot and humid and there there are plants like #banana plants, #bamboo and #palms in there.
Some plants in the Palm House

The plants are well looked after and are curated into geographical regions. They are densely packed and a better way to see them if from a first-floor walkway, about 3-4 m up.
