For første og sidste gang i dit liv vil vi se Saturn, Pluto, Jupiter, Sydknuden og Ceres alle passere gennem stjernetegnet Stenbukken i dit horoskop, fra december 2017 til december 2020. I anden del af Stenbukken Effekt I vil se på, hvordan dette påvirker din verden.
Hvis du gik glip af det, kan du læse første del her.
Dit stjernetegn og Stenbukken-effekten
Af alle de tegn, der er mest ramt af Stenbukken-effekten i deres karriere, er det Vædderen og Løven, der vil se de største ændringer. Hvis du er født under disse tegn, eller arbejder sammen med dem, der er, så forvent et meget krævende 2018 og 2019 efterfulgt af kæmpe succes (hvis det er opnået) i 2020. Taurus vil opdage, at regionale og udenlandske forskelle påvirker hans/hendes arbejdsliv blive et stort problem ved udgangen af 2018 og i 2020 udløse fantastiske ændringer. For Scorpio er fokus på det verdensomspændende web og dets daglige, ubarmhjertige indflydelse på arbejdet. I 2020 er Skorpionens internetliv formidabelt.
Økonomisk er det Skytten og Tvillingerne, der vil se den mest gennemgribende transformation, hvor realiteterne i en ny verdensøkonomi har en trickle-down effekt i 2018, 2019. Hvis du er født under disse tegn, eller er påvirket af dem, der er, det er på tide at begynde at læse de finansielle sider mere seriøst – især hvad angår kryptovaluta. Selvom du ikke vil bruge det, vil det ændre dit liv.
I personlige relationer har Stenbukken-effekten den største indvirkning på kræft, Jomfru, Vægten og igen – af økonomiske og forholdsmæssige årsager – Tvillingerne. Kræften skal se på virkeligheden af det forhold, han/hun deler med en tidligere, nuværende eller mulig partner. Jomfruen skal se på spørgsmålet om babyer og børn, uanset om hun/han er forælder eller ej. Vægten skal fokusere hårdt på familien. Fiskene er ved at opdage, hvorfor venner betyder lige så meget som ægtemænd eller koner, og hvorfor de grupper, der involverer disse venner, kan være lige så afgørende som familie. Det vil tage tre år for én rejse at fuldføre, og der er karma med især én ven.
Hvad med Stenbukken? Sammen med Vandmanden har dem, der er født i slutningen og starten af året, den mest personlige indflydelse fra Stenbukken-effekten. Se Stenbukken ændre den måde, han/hun ser ud eller klæder sig på. Se Stenbukken indse, at succes måske ikke er, hvad succes betød for år siden. For Vandmanden er de intenst personlige ændringer interne. Hemmelighed. Privat. Faktisk er 2018, 2019, 2020 terapeutiske oplevelser.
The Nuclear Story i januar 2020
Vi har Jupiter sammen med den sydlige knude i Stenbukken i januar 2020, så vi er nødt til at tale om nuklear karma. Noderne vender os altid tilbage til fortiden, som om vi levede gennem den samme scene, fra den samme film, med de samme mennesker, der læste de samme linjer. Filmen kan have en anden besætning, instruktør og rollebesætning, hver gang Node går gennem et skilt som Stenbukken, men det er grundlæggende det samme manuskript. Hvad der går rundt, kommer rundt, for at citere Lenny Kravitz, og vi har set det hele før, eller gjort det hele før, eller hørt det hele før. Sådan er det med Nordkorea.
I betragtning af at vi har dette slående fokus med Stenbukkens mønstre på Nordkorea og unge Kim, med hans nukleare besættelse, kan vi bare ikke gå forbi det faktum, at den 6. og 9. august 1945, da Hiroshima og Nagasaki rystede verden, South Node stod også på 8 Stenbukken. På det tidspunkt dukkede den nye verdensorden op, og USA var i toppen. Hun påtog sig karmaen med at afslutte krigen, men tage liv.
I januar 2020 sker den nøjagtige opstilling af Jupiter ved 8 Stenbukken og Sydknuden ved 8 Stenbukken, fra 7. til 11. januar, også lige før denne anden kriseperiode for verdensordenen, når Saturn, Pluto, Ceres og Merkur stiller op kl. 22 Stenbukken den 12. januar.
Hiroshima og Nagasaki Karma gentages i januar 2020
Jupiter på 8 Stenbukken sammen med den sydlige knude på 8 Stenbukken fra 7. januar til 11. 2020 afspejler nøjagtigt den sydlige knude ved 8 Stenbukken den 6. og 9. august 1945, da Hiroshima og Nagasaki blev ødelagt og den nye verdensorden (Japan overgav sig den 14. august ) blev født.
Dette spørgsmål om atomkraft bringer - bogstaveligt talt - ind i De Forenede Nationer, som blev grundlagt den 25. april 1945 kl. 12.00 i San Francisco med South Node kl. 11 Stenbukken, tre grader væk. Vi kommer til at se en tung regning for FN, når Saturn krydser 11 Stenbukken fra den 29. december 2018 til den 6. januar 2019. Hele følelsen af denne periode er, at 'verdensbetjentene' er under stor stress, og karmaen fra Hiroshima og Nagasaki skal håndteres i et år eller to efter dette. USA har altid været politichef i hele systemet, og FN over dem – men hvad vil der ske med det gamle system under disse transitter? Det er virkelig vigtigt, at vi alle 'optager' atomspørgsmålet i vores tænkning, startende lige nu - mens jeg skriver dette i december 2017. Ved tinden, du kommer tilbage til dette i december 2020, vil du se hvorfor.
Heldigvis er karmaen fra den sydlige knude sammen med Jupiter i den gamle 'Hiroshima og Nagasaki'-position i januar 2020 bestemt til at hjælpe os. Jupiter er astrologiens store beskytter; sikkerhedsnettet. For romerne var han den største og bedste af deres guder. Jupiter Optimus Maximus. Vi er meget heldige at finde ham ved siden af South Node i januar 2020 på et tidspunkt med stort globalt pres, og tilbagevenden af et gammelt mønster, vi så, da Hiroshima og Nagasaki blev bombet. Der er håb. Faktisk kan der være tale om en global reform. Det, der får os der, er dog alvorligt.
Hvem vender Saturn tilbage i Stenbukken i januar 2020?
Folk, der har deres første eller anden Saturn Return i januar 2020, vil virkelig mærke virkningen af disse politiske og forretningsmæssige ændringer den måned, på en ganske personlig måde. De kan opleve, at deres livsvej ændrer sig. Du vil få din Saturn tilbage, hvis du blev født med Saturn på 21, 22, 23, 24 Stenbukken. Du vil opdage, at det globale påvirker det personlige (din karriere eller pension), og som person spiller du din rolle i at påvirke det globale billede. Dette er et godt eksempel på, hvordan Natural House-systemet fungerer. Der er mange forskellige hussystemer i astrologi, og dette er kun et af dem, men jeg kan godt lide at bruge det (især for Premium-medlemmer, med deres personlige diagrammer), fordi det viser, hvordan vi påvirker den større helhed som individer, men også hvordan den større helhed påvirker os.
Hvis du har din Saturn Return i januar 2020, er du en del af systemet, enten fordi du klatrede op i din karriere, eller fordi du giftede dig 'op', og ægteskabet er bundet til, at din mand eller kone har succes. Både du og systemet testes i januar 2020.
Pensionering og forfremmelse i januar 2020 – Den store omlægning
På verdensscenen skal man se på de milliarder, der nærmer sig deres 30 års fødselsdag, og også deres 60 års fødselsdag i januar 2020. Det er de aldre, hvor man traditionelt bliver forfremmet, men også peger mod pensionering – eller afskedigelse. Så der er en anden logisk grund til det store skift i virksomheds- og regeringslivet i januar 2020. Folk lægger pres. Januar er et pres fra virksomheder og myndigheder, og jeg formoder, at det kan være på grund af alle Saturn Return-folkene den måned, som også tilfældigvis er i nøglealdre, set fra store virksomheder – især dem, der ser deres pensions- og pensionsforpligtelser. Vi kunne nemt se pensionsalderen og pensionsreglerne dramatisk ændret i mange lande på samme tid.
Årsagerne til dette er indlysende, da vi siden maj 2018 vil have set den største revolution på aktiemarkederne i vores levetid. Dette påvirker vores pensions- eller pensionskasser, og derfor kan vi i januar 2020 meget vel se pensionsalderen gå år tilbage eller år frem. Dette påvirker igen Saturn Return-folkene omkring de 60 år, men også forsinker eller fremskynder forfremmelsen for de første Saturn Return-folk i alderen omkring 30 år.
Så hvad er denne Saturn Return, vi hører om, overhovedet?
Kosmos og psyke forfatter, Richard Tarnas:'Ved at undersøge mange hundrede individuelle biografier observerede jeg, at i årene fra otteogtyve til tredive år var der en håndgribeligt anderledes, normalt mere seriøs holdning til livet, arbejdet, langsigtede mål, sikkerhed, forældre, tradition, og etablerede sociale strukturer havde en tendens til at opstå.'
Han fortsætter - 'Ens første symfoni er komponeret og første offentlige koncert finder sted (Beethoven); ens store professionelle sammenslutning etableres (Shakespeare bliver medlem af Globens kompagni af spillere og deres chefdramatiker); ens afgørende karriereudnævnelse er modtaget...'
Marie Curie opdagede radium og polonium på sin Saturn Return. Abigail Adams tog på sig familie, husholdning, forretning og forfatterskab – alt sammen på samme tid. Ginsberg skrev Howl og Scott Fitzgerald skrev The Great Gatsby. Gertrude Stein flyttede til Paris og etablerede sin salon på 27 rue de Fleurus.
Den anden Saturn-tilbagekomst, når folk nærmer sig de 60 år, er lige så vigtig, med lignende temaer – det er en tid til at blive seriøs, mærke sin alder – og tage vægten af livet, som det virkelig er, ikke som vi ville ønske det. være. Det er en tung tid. Saturns regler fører. Når folk nærmer sig pensionering, gennemgår de især deres arbejdsliv for at se, hvad de har (eller ikke har) opnået. Der er en bevidsthed om, at alderdommen nærmer sig. Skrev jeg min roman? Flyttede jeg til Paris?
Hvordan januar 2020 rocker erhvervslivet og regeringen – og dig
Disse mennesker, der har deres Saturn Return, eller andre transitter til deres Stenbukkens faktorer i januar 2020, tæller i deres milliarder, og det betyder en bølge af verdensomspændende forandringer, som også vil påvirke din karriere. Hvis du er stærkt Stenbukken, vil du ende, begynde eller fuldstændig omforme din livsbane derefter.
Hvad der er anderledes ved Saturn Return-folket i januar 2020 er, at de bliver revet med i andre transitter af en slags, der skifter verden. Så deres egen beskæftigelses- eller pensionssituation er dybt anderledes end andre generationer før dem, takket være Ceres, Saturn, Pluto og Mercury line-up. Vi kommer til at se en enorm mængde af aftaler, kompromiser, håndhævede aktieaftaler og resten i virksomheder og regeringer, med dig (hvis det er din Saturn Return) og dem over dig, på det tidspunkt. Ceres er en virkelig vigtig faktor her, da hun er dronningen af carve-up. Jeg forudsagde Brexit-resultatet ved hjælp af Ceres, så tag venligst denne planet seriøst i dit diagram, selvom du ikke altid ser astrologer, der refererer til hende. Hvis du har din Saturn Return over denne gang, vil du personligt blive trukket ind i en afvejning fra november 2019 til januar 2020, som direkte involverer dine chefer eller medarbejdere.
Den nye jobdeling og tidsdeling
Igen, på grund af den store virksomheds-, aktiemarkeds- og skattetransformation i 2018, 2019, når vi når 2020, vil du se jobdeling og tidsdelte job blive et faktum. Sammen med drastiske ændringer i pensionsalderen er jeg sikker på, at du kan se, hvorfor livets nye økonomiske realiteter vil omforme, hvordan vi arbejder.
Naturen af alt dette er så gennemgribende, at vi kun kan spekulere i, at det handler om en større forandring i verden, sandsynligvis om vores hårdt tjente pensions- og pensionsfonde, da denne cyklus også udfolder sig sammen med den revolutionære Uranus i Tyren-cyklus, der er bestemt til at ændre banksystemet fra maj 2018. Selvfølgelig er beskatning det andet oplagte spørgsmål, når du går fra november 2019 til januar 2020.
Astrologi skal være praktisk. Det handler om at forhandle med skæbnen. Hvis du underskriver kontrakter eller andet papirarbejde, og du ved, at slutningen af 2019 eller starten af 2020 præsenterer en form for deadline, der også involverer en regeringsafdeling eller en stor virksomhed, så læs det med småt og få en anden mening.
Generation Capricorn and the New Career Game of 2020
Her er de alle (under) Generation Stenbukken, født med Neptun i Stenbukken, eller Uranus i det tegn. De venter, venter, venter på forfremmelse, lønstigninger eller det magtpar-ægteskab – men denne generation, der så tålmodigt håber på succes, mens jeg skriver dette i december 2017, vil have deres tanker blæst i 2020. Topjobs vil komme til dem hurtigere, yngre. Hvorfor? Pensionsalderen, frivillig afskedigelse, jobdeling og resten vil feje gennem verdensøkonomien, efterhånden som vi kommer ud af de hårde, prøvende tider i 2018 og 2019 og ind i de massive reformer i 2020.
Det er, hvad der sker, når du har Saturn sammen med din Neptun eller Uranus i det tiende hus af succes, efterfulgt af Jupiter, Sydknuden, Pluto og Merkur, når januar 2020 begynder. Jeg skriver dette tre år ud i fremtiden, men januar 2020 ligner i stigende grad deadline for så mange lande. Dette går ud over Brexit!
Hvorfor januar 2020 betyder noget for dig og din familie, venner, elskere
Inden for astrologi er den eneste gang, begivenheder kommer fra ingenting (normalt med meget chok), når Uranus har ansvaret. Generelt udvikler begivenheder sig over måneder, og sådan er det også med januar 2020, hvor der vil være en følelse af uundgåelighed omkring krisen – og de kommende løsninger – for folk i toppen, hvilket selvfølgelig vil påvirke de mennesker, du holder af, som vi er alle påvirket af regerings- og forretningsbeslutninger.
Stenbukken er bjerggeden, der ikke sætter en fod forkert, fordi hun/han er for bange til at gå glip af et skridt på vejen til toppen. Toppen, eller det skinnende højdepunkt, er altid til stede, og opmuntrer Stenbukken til at blive ved med at bevæge sig. Det er typisk at ville noget, som er meget langt fra ens oprindelse. Således forbinder vi Stenbukken med sekretæren, der bliver C.E.O. og også med middelklassepigen, der gifter sig med en kommende konge. Du ser tunge Stenbukke-mennesker, der gifter sig 'op', så de gifter sig med en, der fører dem ind i en bedre klasse; en bedre livsstil. Og det bringer mig til Kate Middleton. Og den dejlige Kate Moss, afbilledet nedenfor i en tidlig udgave af The Face.
Hvordan mennesker i Stenbukken påvirker os alle, 2018-2020
Jeg har denne teori om, at folk bliver berømte, fordi de er gamle sjæle, der reinkarnerer for at lære verden noget gennem deres liv. Hvad der sker med dem, bliver en lektie for os alle. De to Kates, herunder Kate Moss, nedenfor, er fantastiske eksempler på bjerggeder (begge er stærkt Stenbukken), som retter blikket mod toppen af den højeste top og langsomt og forsigtigt klatrer højere og og højere op. Hvis du kender en Stenbuk, eller har det tegn placeret i dit diagram tre eller flere gange, så har Kates i 2018, 2019, 2020 også en besked til dig.
Kate Middleton og Kate Moss som Stenbukkens symboler
Denne idé om at gifte sig er virkelig den fantasi, der omgiver Kate Middleton, som faktisk er en Stenbuk, og ideen om at 'gå op i verden' er også Kate Moss, Croydon-supermodellen, der ikke giftede sig - men som med succes er afsluttet op i High Society.
Generationen født med Neptun i Stenbukken, som søger at flygte fra den virkelige verden ved at forfølge status og succes, er fascineret af eventyret om de to Kates. Hvis du er en berømtheds-watcher, vil du gerne se Middleton og Moss omhyggeligt i 2018, 2019, 2020, da deres liv i denne periode vil have noget at lære os om succes, og hvad det rent faktisk betyder. Hvis du læser dette og er en af mine Cosmopolitan magasinlæsere, født med Neptun i Stenbukken (1984-1998), forventer derefter at se livslektioner for din generation, udspillet gennem de livslektioner, der vises for de to Kates.
Arbejdsløshed, virkelighed og generation Stenbukken
Arbejdsløshed er desværre en reel risiko for Gen Stenbukken. Dette kan være en af grundene til, at der i 2020 er et sådant krav om en nytænkning af alder, anciennitet, praktikophold, forfremmelse, pensioner, pension og resten. Stenbukken er faktisk styret af Saturn i astrologien, som du sikkert kender, og så ankomsten af denne planet i hans eget tegn er en dobbelt pust. Begge er forbundet med frygt, hvis du fjerner betydningen af tegnet og planeten tilbage. Forsigtighed er frygt, klædt ud som sund fornuft. Konservative mennesker siger eller gør aldrig noget, der ville bringe deres position på bjerget i fare. Vi forbinder enhver institution, organisation eller 'system' som er pyramideformet med dette stjernetegn. Pyramider er som bjerge; der for den ambitiøse ged at klatre op. Igen, hvis du har Neptun i Stenbukken (1984-1998), så kan det være allerførste gang, du nogensinde har indset, at især arbejde ikke er en ferie fra virkeligheden. I 2020 vil din arbejdsverden være alt for reel.
Uanset din alder, håber jeg, at du får en fornemmelse af, hvad dette tegn handler om. Det skal siges, at Stenbukken kan ønske sig topjobbet så meget og frygte ikke at opnå det så meget - at han/hun nogle gange vil gøre hvad som helst (inklusive at bryde loven eller bryde moralske love) for at nå dertil. Den anden gamle Stenbukkens advarselshistorie handler kun om 'succes', og hvor hul den kan være. Desværre, da Saturn og Pluto begge går gennem Stenbukken i 2018-2020, kommer vi til at se nogle meget hårde overskrifter, der involverer berømte mennesker, der lever disse store sandheder om tegnet, ud for os.
Krigsrisici under Saturn og Pluto i Stenbukkens år
Richard Tarnas forbinder disse to planeter, Saturn og Pluto, i aspekt med international krise og konflikt. De var næsten modsat den 11. september 2001, da Saturn stod på 14 Tvillinger og Pluto stod på 12 Skytten (de havde været nøjagtigt modsatte ved 12 Tvillinger og 12 Skytter under terroristernes planlægningsstadier, måneden før, i august 2001. De to planeter var konjunkte, med kun én grads forskel, i august 1914, da Saturn stod på 0 Cancer og Pluto stod på 1 Cancer. Dette var uger efter starten af Første Verdenskrig, da Franz Ferdinand den 28. juni 1914 var blevet skudt.
Saturn og Pluto var firkantede med kun to graders forskel, da Anden Verdenskrig begyndte i september 1939. Pluto stod på 2 Løven, Saturn var på 0 Tyren. Vi har set, hvordan januar 2020 stemmer overens med Hiroshima- og Nagasaki-mønstrene, og hvordan den nordkoreanske præsident Kim Il-sungs død i 1994 og erstattet af hans søn, Kim Jong-il, har sin besvarelse i april 2019, såvel som januar 2020.
I betragtning af denne krigsrisiko i januar 2020, hvor Pluto og Saturn er nøjagtigt sammen, er det måske på tide at tale mere om Jupiter. Astrologer som profession har en tendens til at blive overbegejstrede over dystre forudsigelser, men Jupiter var den mest magtfulde af alle guderne i Rom, og da han er nøjagtig sammen med karmaens sydknude i Stenbukken i januar 2020, når Saturns gødning rammer verdens fan, er hans timing perfekt. Der er håb. Der er en løsning. Der vil komme noget godt ud af dette. Fordi – Jupiter er altid godt.
Selvom han begynder med en detox og en oprydning, til sidst med Jupiter, kommer der bedre ting. Uanset hvad der er galt med verden, vil dens magtbalance og især dens nukleare magtbalance blive behandlet fuldt ud og i sidste ende rettet efter januar 2020 – i henhold til alle astrologiens love – da Jupiter derefter går videre til at sammensætte Pluto selv, det samme år. Der er noget ved Hiroshima og Nagasaki, der er klar til at komme rundt, karmisk, for USA og hendes allierede og Japan i januar 2020, men med Jupiters involvering er det et episk karmisk reparationsjob.
Jupiter i Stenbukken – Virksomhedens og verdensregeringens oprydning i 2020
En af mine yndlings astrologibøger er Hemmeligheder fra en stjernekiggers notesbog af Debbi Kempton-Smith. Hun kalder Jupiter Barmhjertige Fatso, som jeg elsker. Hun skriver "Jupiter er lavet af gas, og han er en gas. Han er julemanden, den gyldne gås og den hellige ko rullet sammen til en stor. Hans motto er:"Vær stor om det", og hans princip er barmhjertighed. Jupe er en fatso, og han har en tendens til at udvide alt, hvad han rører ved. Fatso giver dig helbredelse, hjælp og heldig beskyttelse, selv i de værste tider." Dette er sandt, selv når Saturn er i nærheden, og som Keith Richards engang sagde:'Shit happens'.
Skrivning i The Contemporary Astrologer's Handbook , bemærker Sue Tompkins "Jupiter giver selvtillid og optimisme, uanset hvor den findes og kan i bedste fald også forbindes med ideen om glæde og jovialitet." Der vil helt sikkert være en god nytårsfølelse omkring januar 2020 efter to meget hårde år med Saturn og Pluto i Stenbukken, så selvom dette er krisen for så mange på toppen – vil det føles som starten på noget bedre.
Tompkins fortsætter, "Vores Jupiter-position ved tegn, hus og aspekt viser, hvor og hvordan vi søger at vokse. Det viser også, hvor vi har brug for plads til at vokse. Vækst indebærer at bevæge sig fremad, at gå ud over de nuværende grænser; det indebærer at se ud over de tilsyneladende omkredse af den aktuelle situation og få et glimt af dens betydning og muligheder.”
Noget af det håb for fremtiden vil komme fra Generation Stenbukken i januar 2020, som blev født, da Uranus og Neptun var i dette stjernetegn i halvfemserne. De vil være morgendagens ledere inden for virksomheds-, forretnings-, konge- og regeringsliv - på toppen eller klatring der. De vil have en bedre verden efter et hårdt 2018 og 2019 takket være kombinationen af hårde Saturn og ubarmhjertige Pluto i Stenbukken. Hvorfor vil Gen Capricorn hjælpe med at føre os ud af den lange politiske krise og virksomhedskrise? Fordi de vil og kan – faktisk er de født til at gøre det. I 2020 vil Jupiter forbinde deres Uranus og Neptuns fødselsposition, og døren åbnes. Dette er omstrukturering af forfatninger, love og alle vores systemer i stor skala, og der er ikke ét aspekt af erhvervslivet, det kongelige eller regeringslivet, det ikke vil berøre.
Jupiter – Roms store naturkraft – udløser dine Stenbukkens faktorer
Jupiter i sin latinske form var for romerne (grundlæggerne af vores moderne astrologi) guden for himmelfænomener som vind, regn, torden, storm og lyn. Han betød meget for bønderne og var Jupiter Lucetius (lys) eller Jupiter Elicius (for at fremkalde, trække frem) og også Jupiter Liber, en kreativ kraft. Som Jupiter Dapalis forestod han såningen; som Jupiter Terminus vågede han over markgrænser.
Han er en naturkraft. Han gik også fra at være Roms store landlige gud til beskytter af by og stat. Som Jupiter Stator, Fetrius eller Victor blev han forbundet med krig og sejr. I sidste ende, på ægte Jupiter-manér, gik han til sit mest kendte navn i Romerriget - Jupiter Optimus Maximus. Det er vigtigt at huske, hvilken kraftfuld kraft denne planet er. Han var endda kendt som Jupiter Pistor (bager), fordi han reddede romerne fra gallerne ved at overtale dem til at kaste brød over Capitols mure, for at bevise over for fjenden, at de ikke frygtede sult. Han handler om tro. Tro!
Januar måned 2020, men hele året 2020 som helhed, handler om at kaste brødet ud over væggene. Især to generationer vil få det til at ske. En af dem er Generation Stenbukken, og du er måske en af dem – eller kender nogen, der er det. Tiden er inde til at se nærmere på disse yngre ansigter, og hvorfor de er så vigtige for verdens fremtid.
Babyer fra halvfemserne! Generation Stenbukken og den nye verden i 2020
Mellem 1988 og 1995/1996 var Uranus i Stenbukken og så er denne generation kablet til at udløse en revolution i politik og big business. De blev født, da etablissementet i Sydafrika oplevede en massiv forandring, da Nelson Mandela blev befriet til at blive præsident, og apartheid sluttede. Det gamle USSR kollapsede i 1991 i denne periode. Kejser Hirohito døde i 1989 og den gamle orden i Japan sluttede også.
Generation Stenbukken inkluderer også Neptun i Stenbukken-børn, født 1984 til 1998, som er meget forskellige fra deres jævnaldrende, selvom de er dybt bekymrede over de samme spørgsmål om status og succes. Uranus beskriver, hvordan du afviser og bliver afvist. Det viser gentagne omvæltninger, normalt takket være alle i din generation (ikke kun dig) og mangel på fred eller accept. Det er her, du hele tiden ændrer dig i dit liv. Mennesker født med Uranus i Stenbukken er på planeten for at producere, skabe og opfinde et nyt virksomheds- og regeringssystem. De kan gøre det utilsigtet. De kan endda gøre det ved et uheld. De ser ud til at være det bankende hjerte i, hvad der kommer til at finde sted i erhvervslivet og politik 2018-2020.
Neptun i Stenbukkens mennesker er også i denne generation, men de kunne ikke være mere forskellige fra Uranus i Stenbukkens mennesker (medmindre de blev født med begge planeter i dette tegn, i hvilket tilfælde de vil være i en konstant kamp med sig selv!) Grundlæggende er Neptun i Stenbukken mennesker er de stjerneklare drømmere, der tror på etablissementet; systemet – og har i sidste ende vist sig at være de ulønnede praktikanter, som så mange udnyttende virksomheder ønskede at ansætte. Mange gør det stadig. Neptun i Stenbukken får folk ingenting i løn, laver en masse ringe opgaver, går i jakkesæt, går hjem og tror, de har klaret det. Da praktik og erhvervserfaring er en så kernedel af Stenbukkens kultur, virker det meget sandsynligt, at vi vil se en større undersøgelse af det i 2018, 2019, 2020 og måske nye love, der forbyder den slags udnyttelse, som et resultat.
Lad os nulstille mere om Neptun i Stenbukken. Neptun i ethvert stjernetegn i dit diagram handler om, hvordan du flygter fra den virkelige verden. Hvordan du lever i et parallelt univers af ikke-virkelighed, selvom det føles virkeligt for dig. Det er her, du bor i Never Never Land. Når du tænker på disse to planeter i Stenbukken, tegnet 'jakkesæt' - du kan se, hvorfor der er en klar splittelse mellem Neptun i Stenbukken-folkene (som fantaserer om traditionelle hvide bryllupper, jakkesæt og slips - og old-school succes) og Uranus i Stenbukken-folket (som kæmper med ethvert system, selv når de opfinder det, og kæmper med store virksomheder og regeringer, selvom de ved, at det er det, de er her for at gøre!)
Der er en tredje, vigtig gruppe af Gen Stenbukken-folk, som blev født med Pluto i Stenbukken fra den 26. januar 2008. De vil være omkring tolv år gamle i januar 2020, og man kan undre sig over, hvilke massive begivenheder den måned vil forblive i deres hukommelse, når de er voksne, fordi de helt sikkert blev sat på planeten for at tage kontrol over virksomheder og regeringer, når de er ældre. Et åbenlyst resultat af perioden 2018-2020 er en omvæltning i betalt uddannelse og det private/offentlige skolesystem, og de ville passe perfekt til denne aldersgruppe, når der kommer ændringer. Du kan endda spekulere i, at transit af Saturn på deres Pluto, efterfulgt af Ceres, gør deres overgang til High School eller lignende (teenageuddannelse) ret kritisk. Et eksempel på dette kan være det barn, hvis ven er i betalt uddannelse som del af virksomheden og går på forskellige skoler, når de kommer i ungdomsårene. Måske vil slutningen af 2019 og starten af 2020, når de nye skoleterminer begynder rundt omkring i verden, falde sammen med en presset tid for 'old school tie'-skolerne med deres enorme gebyrer. Det er værd at se.
Saturn i fokus – Gødningen rammer blæseren
Så hvad med Saturn, planeten med ventelege, sværhedsgrader og livseksamener – i 2018, 2019 og 2020? New Larousse Encyclopedia of Mythology , introduceret af Robert Graves, fortæller os, at Saturn var en gammel bondegud af latinsk/romersk oprindelse. Han bliver altid vist med sin le eller segl. Faktisk er symbolet for Saturn i dit horoskop leen på siden. Ordet 'sator' oversættes som 'såmand' og er forbundet med hans navn. Fra dette kommer ideen om, at under en Saturn-transit høster du, hvad du sår. Du får, hvad du fortjener.
Under navnet Stercutius sørgede Saturn for gødning af marker. Under Saturn-transiterne hører man ofte folk sige 'lortet rammer fan', og det er helt sikkert sandt for november 2001, to måneder efter 9/11, hvor vi fandt Pluto på 13 Skytten lige over for Saturn på 13 Tvillingerne og The War On Terror var en realitet. Nogle gange siger folk, der gennemgår en Saturn-transit, "Shit" ret intuitivt - og dette minder os om, at for romerne handlede Saturn om netop det stof. Det er vigtigt at huske, at fra gødning kommer frugtbar jord, og i frugtbar jord vokser vigtige nye ting. Saturn er sådan. Det er jordbærene, du i sidste ende får fra lortet, der gør det hele umagen værd. Han var faktisk, for romerne, bøndernes store frelser – hans berømte le blev brugt som et landbrugsredskab, efter at Saturn oprindeligt havde brugt den til at løsrive sin fars penis.
Hvis Saturn handler om at 'dyrke' noget værdifuldt fra livets gødning – og det hårde arbejde med at så og høste – så bidrager det til vores forståelse af januar 2020.
Jeg tror, at det, vi sandsynligvis vil se den måned, er den virkelighed, hvor firmalivet rammer folk, der køber ind i systemet. Disse enorme pyramidelignende strukturer, der begynder med praktikanter og slutter med C.E.O. handler i høj grad om at ’arbejde sig til tops’ og ’handle med mellemledelsen’ og selvfølgelig også afhængig af bonusudbetalinger, pensioner og det øvrige. Vi kender alle mennesker, der har arbejdet for banken for evigt, bogstaveligt talt tjent med deres pension eller pension, eller deres feriepenge eller hvad som helst. Lang tjenesteorlov er endnu et eksempel på en Stenbukken-belønning.
Forfremmelse er også en del af systemet, og vi får at vide, at hvis vi arbejder hårdt og arbejder i årevis, vil det ske for os - en dag. Når du har Ceres, Merkur, Pluto og Saturn på linje på denne måde i Stenbukken, tegnet på alle hierarkiske strukturer, vil du sandsynligvis se, at de, der har investeret deres liv i en institution eller etablissement, er tvunget til at stå over for et ret udfordrende sæt fakta om alt det, mens lortet rammer fanen.
Vi skal huske den beskyttende, heldige Jupiter sammen med den sydlige knude, også i Stenbukken, mens gyllen flyver – og hans totale og ret vidunderlige dominans af året 2020 som helhed. Det er året, hvor alting ændrer sig – fordi det skal – og det vil i sidste ende ændre sig til det bedre.
Januar 2020 – Senior Management
Gustav Holst skabte sit mesterværk, Planeterne , mellem 1914 og 1916 på et tidspunkt, hvor Saturn og Pluto var sammen i kræften, og en krig var ved at udfolde sig.
It is typical of the strangeness of astrology that Pluto had not even been discovered and named at the time (that would come in 1930) but Holst certainly understood Saturn and without realizing it, was creating a soundtrack for The Great War at a time when this planet was in a historic line-up with Pluto. You only have to listen to the music today to hear stuck, slow, serious, sombre, scared old Saturn in the notes.
Holst cast horoscopes, according to Dava Sobel in The Planets . He was true to astrology, making ‘Saturn, The Bringer of Old Age’, the longest of the suite’s seven movements, at nine minutes forty seconds. In this, he was echoing Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) whose composition for Saturn centuries before, had Saturn at slow speed.
This is one of many examples of Saturn’s long association with waiting games, passing years, old men, old age, retirement, the pension and so on. As Pluto (transformation, a change in the balance of power) conjuncts Saturn in Capricorn (business, corporations) in January 2020 it would be a miracle if this specific part of our professional lives was not severely affected. Retirement age may be one issue. Pensions, certainly another.
2020 seems likely to be the year that there is a welcome worldwide shift in retirement age and pension conditions, across a number of countries, following a crisis, as Saturn, Pluto, Ceres and Mercury all stand at 22 Capricorn in January. You would be mad not to join the dots as an astrologer and see that Uranus (the revolution) in Taurus (currency, banks) is going to play a massive part in what comes. Astrology is about being proactive, so if you know for a fact that you have Capricorn and/or Taurus factors in your chart, then make it your business to become an expert on business, from December 2017 onwards.
Watch the trends. Read the news. Focus on cryptocurrency in particular and keep tracking the waves of change as they roll towards you, from May 2018, because they’re going to do that rapidly and you need to be right on top of every current. Know exactly what is happening politically and at the corporate level, because more than any other time in history, it is going to have a personal impact on your life. Mine too!
Management Versus the Fiftysomething Workforce in 2020
Everyone born 1961/2 to 1968/9 has Uranus (revolution) in Virgo (work) and those born 1956/8 to 1971/2 have Pluto (power and control transformation) in Virgo, as well. Thus, the majority of people born in the Sixties, who are steadily approaching usual retirement age in 2020, have Pluto and Uranus in Virgo, the sign associated with the working class, trade unions and the supportive work force. I’ve talked a lot about Capricorn ruling the people at the top. Well, they all need the people further down – middle management – and then the workers, massed at the base of the mountain or pyramid, holding it all up.
The massive change in the balance of power which is coming in 2020, affecting every C.E.O. in the world, will have a great deal to do with these people, and I am one of them – the workers of the world. As I write this I have just finished filing horoscopes for Cosmopolitan , owned by the Bauer corporation, and Vogue , owned by the Conde Naste corporation. I may be an astrologer, but like so many of you reading this, I’m also a worker bee. We bees need to hear the buzz, and read the business and financial pages of the press, almost as routine, once we are well into the Capricorn/Taurus cycles of 2018 and beyond.
What is your workplace hive? Where is it? Who is the Queen Bee? You are going to see that hive changed and possibly even replaced in 2018, 2019, 2020.
The reason for this is the trine from Saturn in Capricorn to the Virgo placements of this generation, born in the Sixties – the worker bees. When Saturn (tough realities) tends to ‘lean in’ like this, you usually find that the chart signatures of people come alive. All those fifty-somethings are really going to discover their inner Virgo (the work ethic) but in a powerful (Pluto) new way, or even a profoundly revolutionary (Uranus) one. It won’t just come from nowhere; it’s going to come from the tremendous reshaping of the larger business world.
Worker Bees Born in the 1960’s
2020 feels like a massive shift in the old working world, away from the hive shape (lots of bees down the bottom, one bee at the top) towards a very different kind of hive. I would also suspect that the Hive Mind, the collective thinking of billions of people born with Uranus and Pluto in Virgo, is behind the reshape.
Virgo is very much about doing your duty, performing a service, being the cog in the machine. It’s really about, as The Beatles sang in A Hard Day’s Night, ‘working like a dog’ but as Uranus (freedom) and Pluto (empowerment) are in this sign for so many people whose lives have been changed by the computer and the internet, these billions of people born in the Sixties are also working for themselves, these days. Increasingly, 2020 is beginning to look like the crisis point in a major detox of the pension system, the corporate pyramid structure, the banks – and it’s going to revive trade unions. Gen Virgo will wake up.
Natally, Uranus describes that part of you which is the catalyst for a revolution. You play your part in a radical wave of change among your age group. You tend to be quite rejecting, here, but also rejected. Either way you are never still here. Never at peace. Uranus in Virgo is really about self-employment and unemployment, both of which are white-hot issues for everyone born in the Sixties. Virgo has always ruled workload.
Pluto in the chart shows where you are obsessive, passionate, controlling, powerful – but always forced to compromise. Again, in Virgo, this is about self-employment and unemployment. In a time of great difficulty and changes in the balance of power, across multinationals, in 2018, 2019, 2020 – you have to wonder what solutions all those fifty-somethings are going to come up with. Either way, the astonishing trines of Ceres, Saturn, Pluto and Jupiter in Capricorn to the natal Uranus and Pluto in Virgo positions of these people, along with the slow trine from Uranus in Taurus, has the power to empower them – and also set them free. If you are in this age group or are close to people who are, then get ready. The game, as Sherlock so often says, is on. There is a specific age group, too (below) most affected and it looks as if they will lead the changes.
The 1966, 1967, 1968 Children and January 2020
People born with Uranus and/or Pluto at 22 Virgo will experience a substantial career change as they all go through a trine in January 2020, as transiting Mercury, Ceres, Pluto (himself) and Saturn all pass by at 22 Capricorn. These are the adults who were born in 1966, 1967, 1968 and thus, approaching their sixties and that crucial age of pension collection and retirement. They grew up listening to songs like Friday on my Mind by The Easybeats on the radio – a working-class anthem – as small children. They grew up with John, Paul, George and Ringo who sold the idea of a powerful, free working class to the world. Multinationals and moguls are going to be put through their paces by this generation born 1966, 1967, 1968 in January 2020.
January 2020 could easily see class-action lawsuits peak if multinational corporations have betrayed the pension plans of the generation approaching retirement age or if other work contracts are scrapped. January 2020 is very much about the contract between worker and business. Using astrology it would be possible to narrow this period of pressure and intensity down to January 12, 2020 – even though I am writing this on 17 December 2017 it really is possible to see that far into the future with astrology. We’re going to see corporations called to account. They will have to pay their way, one way or another.
I am sure you know Virgo is also associated with the body. Our physical condition and physical state. January 2020 will also be a time of reckoning for any corporation at risk of class-action lawsuits by people whose health has been endangered by (for example) big pharmaceutical companies. This is Gen Virgo again, born 1966, 1967, 1968.
Of course, with Virgo and its great emphasis on the workers, we are also looking at the astrological impact on Communism and countries like China and Russia in January 2020, because it is the Uranus/Pluto in Virgo worker bees who are most affected as the hive is restructured. During the years that Uranus and Pluto were in Virgo, The Beatles came up with Revolution on The White Album. If it is ever going to genuinely happen for the working classes and the middle classes, it will be 2020.
Now, who else is going to play their part in 2020?
The Reagan, Bush and Thatcher Babies of the Eighties
Oh, those Eighties Ronald Reagan babies. When their mothers fed them, he was on the television throughout – the very model of conservative Republican America. He was an older man aged 69 when he became American President, and past usual retirement age. This truly unusual combination of people born in 1984-1998 with either Neptune or Uranus in Capricorn suggests a massive shift in thinking about retirement, pensions, politics and business in January 2020. Also, the whole issue of ‘success’ and status. The idea of making it to the top and staying there. Perhaps Reagan on the T.V. did it to them.
Between 1984 and 1998 , we had people being born with major, outer planets in Capricorn at the same time that ‘Capricorn’ themes ruled the planet – it was all about suits and ties – old men – and the system. Women with padded shoulders, looking like men in the boardroom. Uranus in Capricorn brings tremendous resistance to this idea of conservative success – and rebellion against it. Neptune in Capricorn makes it all seem like an escape from the real world; a fantasy land. Either way, Gen Capricorn is hung up on suits. It’s easy to see why, because the parents of these babies either voted passionately for or against Reagan, Bush, Thatcher when they were growing up.
Ronald Reagan ruled America from 1984, then in 1988 George Bush took over, followed by Bill Clinton in 1992 and again in 1996. To give you a picture of this time, when Generation Capricorn was growing up, Margaret Thatcher and the Conservatives won a third term in Britain in 1987, so the Eighties in both America and Great Britain was in the hands of traditionalists. Even when Thatcher was toppled by her own party, the Conservatives under John Major still went on to win a fourth term for the Tories at the 1992 election.
Only when the twin Uranus and Neptune in Capricorn cycle was fading in 1998 did we see any real change, and that came with the election of Labour’s Tony Blair in 1997, who was in power at the same time as Democrat Bill Clinton. The old men and old women in suits were disappearing then; the mood was changing.
It was against this background that Gen Capricorn grew up. They were small children in 1989 when pro-democracy demonstrations in Tiananmen Square saw the army crush an uprising like no other. They saw people try to crush the system in China on the television – and saw the system tragically crush the people, right back. If the Eighties was the era of suits – and resistance to suits, as well as glorification of them – then it has to be said, the classic Chairman Mao buttoned-up top collar was just as much as symbol of the Capricorn years as Mrs Thatcher’s blue jackets.
Watch fashion when we see the Capricorn line-up across 2018, 2019, 2020. Particularly work wear and corporate wear. The shop windows will tell a story about the deeper social change taking place underneath. Fashion is often a signal for more important transformation and as the number one Capricorn symbol, the suit seems very likely to be at the core of some worldwide, sweeping trend.
Ceres! Why January 2020 is The Big Compromise
Beyond fashion trends, we can expect a big compromise and a new world order in January 2020, partly because of Ceres alongside Pluto, Saturn and Mercury in Capricorn. In fact, because Mercury rules all big announcements, declarations and paperwork, it increasingly looks as if we’re going to see a global agreement that month that attempts to resolve so much of the difficulty and intensity of 2018, 2019 with the nuclear issue and North Korea, but also individual corporations and governments. January 2020 is the month of The Big Announcement.
Ceres is a dwarf planet, equal to Pluto, and should always be considered when we’re talking about the latter. Ceres was reclassified in 2006, along with Pluto, and they are both equally important ‘players’ in the world of astrological timing and prediction.
Ceres is Pluto’s mother-in-law and is associated with power, productivity, creativity – but also the difficulties of loss, compromise and power-sharing. If you really want to know what Ceres is about, find out her zodiac sign and house in your birth chart because you will soon see a lifelong pattern of having it all – losing it – and regaining it, albeit in a way that changes everything. It’s a fierce, intense, impressive, often very difficult part of who you are. Your Ceres sign and house (which you can see at a glance if you are a Premium Member and have your chart) is really one of the biggest books of your life.
When she passes through Capricorn, the suits sign, alongside Saturn, Pluto and Mercury in January 2020 we are looking at an emotional time of forced compromise in boardrooms and political party rooms.
Ceres in Capricorn From November 2019 to December 2020
We find Ceres in Capricorn – the sign ruling ambition, success, status and social climbing – from November 16 2019 through January 31 2020 , so we are now seeing confirmation of an emerging crisis at the top of government, probably at least one royal family in the world – and big business, which evolves from November 2019, past Christmas 2019 and into January of that new year. It is also a crisis for world government – the United Nations and so on.
It is in the way of these things that famous people act out the story for us in astrology. So, some very famous names at the top of their game will be forced to play a different one. There will be a game of musical chairs at the top of society, the establishment, business and politics across the world which begins on November 16 2019, peaks on January 12 2020 and is then over on January 31, 2020.
What these famous people go through will be a symbolic enactment of what we’re all going through. They’ll play it out for us.
In his book, How I Killed Pluto and Why It Had It Coming , astronomer Mike Brown writes a great deal about Ceres. ‘Everybody had known there were only six planets until the moment the seventh (Uranus) was found, but once the prejudice against the idea of new planets was overcome, the idea that there could be other unseen planets was infectious, and as the techniques to build telescopes became more and more available, people began to systematically search the skies for new wanderers. Success came more quickly than expected. On the first day of 1801, Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi – who, like Herschel (the discoverer of Uranus), had been busy studying stars, not wanderers (planets) – discovered the new planet Ceres, the eighth planet, orbiting between Mars and Jupiter.” He continues, “The eighth planet? Ceres? Most people today have never heard of ‘planet Ceres’ but there was little question at the time that Ceres was indeed a planet. Within a few years it could be found in all astronomy textbooks, alongside Uranus and the others.”
Ceres and Pluto – Demotion and Promotion – White House Wipe-Out?
Let’s zero in on the USA and Ceres which hits her chart November 2019 to January 2020. Ceres was demoted after initially being called a planet, and then Pluto came along in 1930, and immediately won planet status – only to be demoted in 2006 by astronomers who relegated him to ‘dwarf’ and removed him from the Solar System. At the same time, Ceres was moved on up – back to being a planet again, though a dwarf, along with Pluto.
Pluto and Ceres are always about being moved up, promoted and elevated – or being demoted, cast out and removed. It happened to them both in the Roman myth when Jupiter organized their fate. It happened in astronomy when Mike Brown and friends changed the old Solar System classifications. When we see Pluto and Ceres together like this in Capricorn near January 12 2020 we are going to see the mother of all upheavals at the top. I use the word ‘mother’ advisedly because Ceres tends to put women front and centre. This is the White House, in the future. Which woman and which man? We don’t know.
At this point my fingers are itching for the Hillary Clinton horoscope, not to mention the Donald Trump horoscope, but as you may know, their birth data is far from being solid. (The latest and greatest example of this as I write in December 2017, is Trump’s birthday being out by an entire month, in a voting form he sent in to New York authorities – he authorised a July birthdate, which makes him a Cancerian!).
Let’s go without those charts, then, but look at what Ceres does to the American horoscope, which we do have solid data for. The United States is strongly Capricorn, with Mercury, Proserpina, the Sun, Ceres, Fortuna and Pluto himself in that sign. November 2019 through January 2020 is an historic period of negotiation between the U.S.A. and the rest of the world, cutting a new deal for her within the world order. It will necessarily involve the White House. It strikes at the heart of her 1776 constitution. It’s unforgettable. Just look at this chart, below.
Of course, the United States affects everything and everybody on the planet. Starting in November 2019, but reaching a crisis in January 2020, we are going to see a promotion/demotion chain-reaction in corporations and governments, as Ceres moves through Capricorn alongside the other main players – her brother-in-law Pluto and her other relatives Saturn and Jupiter. You’ll see Presidents, Prime Ministers and C.E.O’s step down or be rather heavily taken down by destiny. We’ll see The System change. Just as Ceres and Pluto were at the heart of Solar System change in 2006, so 2020 will bring a transformation of what we might call the political establishment, and the big business ‘system’. Royal families are also a system, with a hierarchy which has the Queen or King at the top and the civil or public servants down the bottom. The aristocracy is part of that.
Trophy Wives and Trophy Husbands
Unfortunately, if you are a trophy wife or trophy husband, or the spouse of one, you are likely to go through extreme pressure across 2018-2020 as Capricorn rules people who do not marry for love, or even move in with someone for love – but do it for status, or money. This is a phenomenon of the Tenth House and the sign of Capricorn. I am sure you know the cliché. The much older, unattractive man in a suit and tie, with an impressive career and wealth, who chooses a younger, more attractive woman as his bride.
With equal marriage we are now seeing a related phenomenon. The older, wealthier, more successful, less attractive male who marries the handsome, younger, less successful lover. The song , Move On Up , says it all. One way to vault up the social ladder and get the right address and the right car, is to seduce (or be seduced by) someone who can get you up where you think you belong. (Love Lifts Us Up Where We Belong ? Well, maybe).
Pluto and Saturn in Capricorn, together with the karma of the South Node, will knock the stuffing out of any marriage not based on true love. If you did it to get ahead; if you did it for the divorce pay-out you assume you’ll get one day; if you did it because he’ll die before you and leave you the mansion – well. You’ll shortly see what it’s like to have a cycle that can only ever happen once in your lifetime, change your life forever.
It is in the way of things that famous people will play out the Capricorn drama for us, because to watch it is cathartic for the rest of us. Maybe that’s why some people are fated to become famous. They reincarnate voluntarily to act out the script and take the world through something it needs to learn. We are going to see trophy wives and trophy husbands starring in real-life operas and soap operas, 2017-2020. One of the darker elements of Pluto in Capricorn is most certainly the issue of the last will and testament – the financial legacy – and the squabbling that tends to ensure.
There is a price to be paid for hiring a younger, more attractive, often cosmetically enhanced (with your money) bride and it involves her or your resignation, either from the marriage, or from life itself. There is a price to be paid for essentially prostituting yourself to an older, less attractive husband who you do not love, and who probably does not love you (even though you love his credit card). This is all very old, creaking, 20 century stuff and one of the functions of The Capricorn Effect is to move the world on – to progress things. By 2020 Jupiter in Capricorn will surely be at work, doing just that.
Goodbye Bullies, Dictators and Control Freaks
I have a lot of messages from readers every week about various bullies, dictators and control freaks in their career. Sometimes in their private life too – the tyrannical husband, or former husband – is one example. These people are not going to last the distance. They are here because of the Pluto (power) in Capricorn (work) cycle which does tend to produce megalomaniacs. You may already have had one unforgettable and pretty dire episode in your professional, business or university life since the cycle began, particularly if you have anything in Capricorn at 0 through 17 degrees. Some of us had the bully, dictator or control freak problem way back when Pluto first moved into Capricorn in 2008.
As a general trend, the weather or climate in your career may have started shifting in 2008 and it has not stopped – if you have anything in Capricorn at all. Pluto entering the Tenth House of your chart, which rules your success and ambition, your mission and position, is like a difficult house guest.
He moves into your study or office and you realise you are dealing with someone who wants to take over – and take. Yet, the good news about Pluto types is that they always meet their downfall. There is a very good reason for my telling you this; the Second World War.
Everything We Know About Pluto Since 1930 – Little Hitlers
Everything we know about Pluto since 1930, when he was discovered and named, tells us what this planet is all about. The main thing non-astrologers know, as well as you – very likely – is that he was demoted by astronomers in 2006. They ‘killed’ him. Pluto is no longer in the Solar System wall charts or in the mobiles that hang on children’s classroom ceilings.
He had a downfall. Just like Hitler, portrayed for all time in the film Downfall , who became famous in the year they found and named Pluto, the ruler of the Underworld.
There was a power shift in astronomy in 2006 which explains exactly what Pluto is all about and also what he is going to do in Capricorn, the sign of big business and government. We are going to see jail terms here. Total financial wipeout.
In the same year that Pluto was relegated; humiliated; taken down – Ceres was promoted – she became his equal in astronomical terms. Today both are dwarf planets. Pluto was shrunken; cut down to size; pole-axed; diminished.
Whenever you have a Pluto event or Pluto transit, you will see this happen. Out go the little Hitlers. There is always a massive shift in status, power and control across the board, and whomever/whatever is reduced in size and importance, empowers someone or something else. It’s a fascinating thing to watch, as you look at both history and astrology.
If you are being plagued by little Hitlers, or have ‘been there, done that’ but still wonder what is going to happen to them – well, Pluto will sort that out for you. From January 2018 as you read this, Pluto is about two-thirds of the way through the Capricorn (career) cycle, but he still has work to do.
Pluto tends to put people up – or organisations – so that they utterly dominate in every way, proving that ‘absolute power, corrupts absolutely.’ Pluto then knocks them sideways, down or out of the story altogether. How do we know this?
Well, astrology is equal parts history and sociology to mythology. And it runs on synchronicity. So here goes.
It is in the way of astrology that the original Latin myth about Pluto tells us. He was the god of the underworld (Hades or Hell) who became obsessed with a young woman, Proserpina and so he abducted her, rising up from the earth to seize her, when her mother Ceres was absent. He then married her and she became his queen. Ceres, enraged and grieving, appealed to the greatest god in Rome, Jupiter, to help her. She also went on strike. As goddess of agriculture (wheat, corn) she refused to move the seasons in their normal manner. Earth became dark, cold and perpetually barren – no spring or summer ever saw the light of day.
Jupiter, being the greatest and best of all gods, had the solution. He asked Proserpina if she had eaten pomegranates (Pluto’s fruit) while married to him. Pomegranates of course look like vaginas and the Romans knew exactly what they meant by this metaphor. Proserpina replied that she had eaten half the seeds in one pomegranate. Jupiter then replied that she should spend half the year with her mother and half the year with her husband. Thus, when she is back on earth with Ceres we have spring and summer. When she is down below with Pluto, we have winter and autumn.
The other thing to take away from this myth, is that Pluto events always create a new world, no matter how difficult the experience that takes us there – and that world is always more interesting, enriched, fulfilling and in a way, fairer, than the one we had before. Proserpina became empowered in the power struggle between her husband and her mother. Before that she was just a mummy’s girl.
In astronomy, when Ceres was promoted, having being ignored and neglected by astronomers for decades, Pluto was banished. I find it very interesting that so many astrologers still pretend Ceres does not exist. She’s real, she’s here and she’s actually part of the Pluto story. That’s why the Ceres-Pluto conjunction between November 2019 and January 2020 in the corporate and government sign of Capricorn is going to be so intense.
Corporate and Government Fascists 2018, 2019, 2020
Fascism, or the idea of strong, powerful leadership over a society bound by race, was a hit in Italy, where in 1926 Benito Mussolini assumed absolute power. This was four years before Pluto’s discovery and naming. In the 1930s
the popularity of Fascism rose in Britain with Oswald Mosley, in Austria – and most famously and fatally, in Germany, where Adolf Hitler became dictator. In Japan, Emperor Hirohito played Pluto.
1930, the year Venetia Burney, a British schoolgirl, gave the new planet Pluto its name, was also the year that Hitler and his Nazi Party, the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, came second in the elections – and became a political force to be reckoned with.
This is both astrology and history. Astrologers started working with Pluto right after his discovery.
Pluto is about taking over, and taking. It is then about losing – badly.
In 1939 Hitler took Poland and tipped Europe into war on 3 September. He went on to crush Scandinavia and the Netherlands, until in 1940 he had France as well and Great Britain was in his sights.
It is intriguing now to look at how wartime astrologers were ‘reading’ the new planet Pluto at the time.
In 1945 he and his girlfriend Eva Braun committed suicide in their bunker on 29 April 1945 – he married her the previous day, before taking her life. He shot her, then himself. It was the final crash in his long downfall, immortalized in the film Downfall. This is a key word for Pluto. In the myth he comes up from Hades, takes Proserpina from her mother and goes back down. When he loses the contest to have her for himself, he is stuck down in the Underworld, forever.
I am afraid that is quite true Pluto can sometimes turn up with suicide or critical illness, or fatal accident. It is not a rule, but I am sure you can see the connection. Pluto minded the souls of the dead in Ancient Rome.
Pluto in Capricorn 2018, 2019, 2020 alongside Saturn will result in high-profile deaths at the top of government and big business.
Writing in his book Astrology , P. G. Maxwell-Stuart observes, “Pluto had been predicted by the American astronomer Percival Lowell, but it was first seen by one of his younger colleagues on 18 February and named (at the suggestion of an English schoolgirl) after the brother of Jupiter and Neptune, a god who was hidden in darkness and therefore invisible unless encountered face to face. In astrology, Pluto’s influence brings hidden truth to light and is regarded as transformative, creative and regenerative. But soon after its discovery, the German astrologer, Fritz Brunhubner, was of the immediate opinion that Pluto could be called ‘the cosmic aspect originating the Third Reich’ …”
How 20th Century Astrologers Saw Pluto
British astrologers like Margaret E. Hone, Principal of the Faculty of Astrological Studies 1954-1969 had lived through the war, and the discovery of Pluto, but were less sure about its connection with fascists than Brunhubner. Picking up her 1951 classic, The Modern Text-Book of Astrology , we find Pluto described as follows –
‘Keywords – elimination, renewal, regeneration. This planet was discovered in 1930 by the Lowell Observatory and was first called Pluto-Lowell. From the time of its discovery, much has gone on which is eruptive. That which was in the dark or bound or enclosed is violently ejected or vice versa. One instance is the development of the atom bomb. At about the same time, that of the beginning of the 1939 war, homes were plunged into the darkness of the blackout.”
To really get to the core of Pluto, go to the Romans. I have a lovely old copy of The Myths of Greece and Rome by H.A. Guerber which was published in 1907 and reprinted solidly (in my edition) right through the war and into 1960, so if ever there was a standard text on Pluto’s mythological meaning, during the years of Fascism in Europe, this is it.
Guerber wrote “This god inspired all men with a great fear. They never spoke of him without trembling, and they were wont to sacrifice black sheep to him, averting their faces and beating the ground with their hands. Whenever the stern god set out on an expedition he donned a helmet of invisibility given to him by the Cyclopes, and climbed into his chariot drawn by four coal-black steeds; and if any obstacle presented itself to impede his progress he struck it with his two-pronged fork, the emblem of his power, and the obstacle was immediately removed.”
Until Ceres, Jupiter and even his own wife, Proserpina, altered his destiny – of course. Pluto is the power-tripper who lost his power. Looking at the transits of Pluto and the fate of Adolf Hitler (suicide) and Emperor Hirohito (Japanese surrender) and Benito Mussolini (shot) is an education. The year 1945 was the end of times for these Pluto people.
You can trust astrology and history. We are going to see the little Hitlers, Hirohitos, Mussolinis and other ‘great dictators’ come crashing down within three years. And if you are dealing with your own version of this, trust the process.
How 1945 Tells Us About Pluto
On 30 April 1945 when Hitler shot his new wife, then himself – shortly after the BBC had uncovered the horrors of the Belsen concentration camp for the world to hear – Pluto stood at 7 Leo, the sign of Kings and leaders. Saturn was very close at 6 Cancer, the sign of patriotism. That is what is called a semi-sextile in astrology. Using the asteroids in our modern family astrology tree (which astrologers in 1945 did not have access to) we can also see the story of Hitler’s Pluto-like downfall told by Panacea at 7 Cancer, exactly semi-sextile Pluto at 7 Leo, and one degree away from a conjunction with Saturn at 6 Cancer. Panacea timed the suicides.
Panacea is, as you might know, an asteroid in Jupiter’s family tree, who represents remedies, solutions, cures and fixes – but always with a strong moral or philosophical dilemma attached. The death of Hitler and his new wife was a textbook example of Panacea. The final solution he had wanted never happened, but the final solution for him also carried an ethical issue for the whole world to explore.
If you are curious about Panacea please look her up by zodiac sign and house in your birth chart. This is where you always have an answer, but there is always a grey area – it is never morally black or white.
Panacea at 7 Cancer timed the end of Hitler, but the bigger story was undoubtedly Saturn at 6 Cancer and Pluto at 7 Leo. Like all Saturn-Pluto combinations in astrology it was about deep conflict, just ahead of the crushing of Japan – and I don’t need to remind you that in January 2020 we will see Pluto at 22 Capricorn conjunct Saturn at 22 Capricorn, so the great threat of war is returning to our planet.
Throughout 1945 as a whole, the year that the Pluto types lost, died, took their own lives or surrendered we find the slow-moving Pluto crossing 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 degrees of Leo, forming a sextile with Jupiter at 11 Libra along the way – and aspecting the Nodes at 9 Cancer and Capricorn, as well as the aforementioned Saturn at 8 Cancer. 1945 was the year that Pluto dominated the world horoscope and it shows. It also teaches us why this planet symbolizes great dictators who never last.
Bringing this all back to your life in 2018, 2019, 2020 – if you are being plagued by Little Hitlers, probably because you have Capricorn factors at 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 or 24 degrees – take heart, because Little Hitlers have big finishes. On the world stage, of course, we all know that various Humpty Dumptys will have a great fall by the time January 2020 swings around and Ceres, Pluto, Saturn, Mercury, Jupiter and the South Node do their momentous and historic work.
The 1 January Anniversary Phenomenon
January 2020 and the preceding months is also momentous for the world – for the very good reason that so many big nations, institutions or administrations were founded or ‘born’ on 1 January of any year, for convenience, with the Sun at approximately 10 degrees Capricorn (say – 9, 10 or 11 Capricorn, depending on the location and time that a country, corporation or organization was founded). As we go into January 2020, we will have seen the South Node pass 9, 10, 11 Capricorn in October, November 2019 so the stage is set for some karma. The return of familiar themes and the settling of old scores. Debts and credits need to be repaid in life, and the South Node will give us the chance to see that happen. The South Node pinpoints repetition, reincarnation and that feeling of ‘Been there, done that, written the script and seen the film.’ In the context of government or business life, which Capricorn rules, we will see tremendous examples of old lessons repeated! All those places or institutions ‘born’ on 1 January will feel it – and there are a lot of them.
Jupiter moves to 9, 10, 11 Capricorn between January 12 and 24 2020 and will conjunct the Sun in so many major global charts. Having worked their way through the difficulties of Saturn at 9, 10, 11 Capricorn in April, May, December 2018 these major players will (if they are still standing) fix their issues in January 2020 and be part of the new world, new future by 2021. In the list below you will see what/who has the Sun at the crucial degrees of 9, 10, 11 Capricorn and will thus be severely tested, then reborn – in 2020.
- The European Union (EU) built on the foundations of the European Economic Community
- The Euro
- China
- Greece
- The Commonwealth
- The United Nations

Computer Issues on New Year’s Eve 2020
I am sure you remember the Millennium Bug, when the New Year ticked over into 2000. I spent the whole night at a party on Sydney harbor with my friend Mark, who had to carry his laptop under his arm, in case the communications company he worked for, and a crisis! As I look at the long list of institutions or entities which began on 1 January with the Sun at 9, 10 or 11 Capricorn – and will have both Jupiter and the South Node cross over them in January 2020 – I can’t help but see the Julian calendar.
The Julian calendar, or civil calendar of the Roman Empire, which we still use today, was literally ‘born’ on 1 January. It became the new date of the new year. You have to wonder if we’re not going to see issues about that date in the digital world on 1 January 2020. I would be extremely wary of viruses and bugs which are tied to that date, and affect the calendar systems inside computers. I am no expert on this but the astrology does raise a few questions. The actual date, written out, will be 1, 1, 2, 0, 2, 0 and I also think those digits/numbers will become a meme or theme as we draw closer to the end of 2019. I do a lot of travelling with my trusty MacBook Air (below) and I’m going to pack a spare, then!
Your Career in 2020 – Your Tenth House, the World’s Tenth House
If you have even one Capricorn factor, your career is set to change quite dramatically as first Saturn, then the South Node, Ceres and Jupiter conjunct, or sit on, that placement. As we go through these years of change do follow me on Twitter for updates on specific patterns and dates as they come around.
I use the Natural House system for many reasons (its accuracy is just one). Another reason is the micro-macro nature of the astrology. We all go through the same things together, on a global level, at the same time – using this system. The individual also affects the larger trends, just as much as the larger trends affect the individual. If you have Capricorn factors in your Tenth House, or know someone who is Capricorn, then this January 2020 moment is personal and global all at the same time. Basically, what we are seeing with The Capricorn Effect is a large pattern in everybody’s Tenth House of career, including your own, in January 2020.
Capricorn, Saturn and the Tenth House are all linked in astrology, so it’s worth looking at what an astrologer like Ronald Harvey has to say about this, in his book, The Spindle of Meaning . He links it to aims and goals, achievement, success, public life, authority and control. “It is, so to speak, the magnet, the lodestone drawing us upwards and forwards from our origins to the peak of our capabilities.” He continues to link Capricorn and its natural rulership of the Tenth House with “Public standing, reputation, recognition and career” and “authorities of all kinds, to ‘father figures’, parental role models, to Freud’s ‘super-ego’, to controllers, regulators, lawyers, law enforcement officers, police, governors, directors, managers, superiors, indeed all invested with some sort of authority. Government buildings, ministries, law courts, edifices and monuments of prestige and honour…”
White Men in Suits and Ties
Harvey published his book in 1996, so it will be intriguing to see how true his description of the Capricorn ‘weather’ of January 2020 becomes, some quarter-century later. This is where we are going to see a big, global game of musical chairs, as some people leave the game and some people enter. It will happen right through the system. It is also where we are going to see the writing on the wall – a heavy time of reckoning – for large organisations and institutions, ranging from the European Union to the United Nations. There will be a carve-up of power, right across the planet. And all of this will have a domino effect on your career. This is about white men in suits and ties – world leaders.
If you have Capricorn factors at any degree at all, then Jupiter will conjunct or hit them in 2020, to your total advantage. This will make up for the Saturn conjunction you also have to deal with! In other words, your career, role or calling will affect your whole profession or field – and vice versa. From January 2020 it really is time to take all the lessons of 2018 and 2019 and apply them, with the most tremendous rebirth and reform possible in your chosen field, as Jupiter goes through Capricorn until December 19 2020. As we go through that year, if you know you have Capricorn factors, please do check on your weekly horoscope as a Premium Member, where I will look at specific dates when your own personal birth chart will be affected by the rebirth. Life is never going to be the same but it will also be a great deal better.
Mercury’s Role on 12 January 2020 and Why Exact Timing is Possible
Writing in Words from the Myths , Isaac Asimov notes that in ancient times, messages from one ruler to another were carried by ‘heralds’. They carried a special staff as a sign of their office and this was the cadeuceus. Thus, the classic image of Mercury. Even today, long-established newspapers are still called the Herald or Mercury. I am writing this in Tasmania, where the local Hobart newspaper is in fact called The Mercury , and in Sydney, across Australia, we have The Sydney Morning Herald . Thus, the line-up between Mercury, Ceres, Saturn and Pluto at 22 Capricorn on 12 January 2020 seems to be very much about the messenger of the gods – the herald, or the Heralds – bringing the news.
This is typical of what Robert Hand, writing in Planets in Transit , observed about slow-moving outer planets and their aspects, being timed by the faster-moving inner planets – particularly Mercury, which tends to make an event ‘news’. So, there is every chance we really will see these world-changing headlines actually on 12 January, when the aspect becomes exact.
Mundane Astrology by Michael Baigent, Nicholas Campion and Charles Harvey quotes Harvey as follows:“With the slower-moving cycles, planets may be within a narrow orb for many weeks at a time. Admitting that the whole period is likely to be strongly coloured by the idea of that cycle and phase, nonetheless there are times when these ideas will come to a head. What is the mechanism which clicks the final ‘ward of the combination lock’ into place, to use Addey’s imagery, so that the door can be opened to the precipitation of these long-term energies? The answer must obviously lie in the shorter cycles of the inner planets Mars, Venus, Mercury, Sun and even the Moon.”
The January 2020 Eclipse
We have an eclipse on 10 January 2020 which finds the Sun at 20 Capricorn opposite the Moon at 20 Cancer. This is very close to the 22 degree position of the Mercury, Ceres, Saturn and Pluto line-up. It’s important because an eclipse is always a cover-up of some kind. In July 1981 when Lady Diana Spencer married Prince Charles we had two of them, either side of the wedding day. Classically it takes years for the public to find out the deception.
Lee Harvey Oswald, accused of the assassination of John F. Kennedy, left his job, to head for Texas, on the day of an eclipse. It was the most famous American eclipse of the 20 century, because it was total and it was on television. Everybody saw it and nobody saw what was about to happen.
Logic says that if we are to see politicians, business leaders and/or royals dramatically change their position in January 2020 with a demotion, promotion and so on – there will be a cover-up of some kind, as there always is when power and money are involved. This would tie in with Charles Harvey’s thinking on timing. So we can now extend the moment of truth to January 10, 11, 12 and perhaps the 13, to allow Los Angeles to catch up with Auckland. The eclipse seems entwined with this deep January 2020 crisis. We, the people, will be kept in the dark about what is occurring in corporate and government life, for some reason.
This time frame – January 10 to 13, 2020 – is thus across all the unusual astrological patterns that month. It catches the Jupiter and South Node conjunction in Capricorn. It catches the eclipse. It catches the Saturn, Pluto, Ceres and Mercury conjunction. I am sure you know that astrology is alternative timekeeping and it measures circular time, not linear time. Because of this it is possible for me to sit at my desk, staring out to sea, on 17 December 2017 and peer into the future two or three years ahead.
Patriotism, America and John F. Kennedy and January 2020
As I have my copy of Mundane Astrology open in front of me, I have just noticed a good piece of synchronicity. I mentioned Kennedy and the cover-up over the total eclipse when Lee Harvey Oswald left his job to find his future fate in Dallas, Texas as the alleged killer of John F. Kennedy.
Well, here on page 195 and 196 of this little book, I have just ‘randomly’ turned to John F. Kennedy’s birth chart and the chart for his inauguration.
As astrologers we take this kind of synchronicity seriously – these deeply meaningful connections in time are what our work is based on. So it’s worth looking for factors at 20, 21, 22, 23 Capricorn in these charts to see if there is a January 2020 connection with Kennedy.
Former President John F. Kennedy was born at 3.00pm on 29 May 1917 in Brookline, Massachusetts. He was thus born with the IC or Immum Coeli at 23 Capricorn. The IC describes your family, roots, heritage, home, home town and homeland. It’s quite remarkable that in January 2020 we should see Mercury, Ceres, Saturn and Pluto so close by at 22 Capricorn.
There is more synchronicity when we look at the chart set for John F. Kennedy’s inauguration as President on 20 January 1961, because Saturn was at 21 Capricorn, so again – just one degree away from the pattern we are seeing in January 2020.
January 2020 is about the Kennedy dynasty and legacy in American politics, likely because a member of the family rises to power again, or because new factors about either his Presidency or his assassination come to light.
Trump in 2017, the year I am writing this, began opening up the Kennedy documents to the public gaze again. Hvorfor? Perhaps January 2020 has something to do with it, but we will have to wait and see.
Richard Nixon was a Sun Capricorn. He is at the heart of this. In 2018, 2019, 2020 we will find out more about Nixon and Kennedy than has ever been possible. If you are an astrologer, look at the charts for Pepsi Cola and Coca Cola.
January 2020 Patterns – Uranus in Taurus – Share Market Shocks and the Future
Common sense says you need to look at issues like Wall Street and other share markets to get some of the ‘Why?’ questions answered about the big changes (especially involving the Euro and the European Union) in January 2020. World economies are ruled by Taurus and Scorpio and of course 2020 brings the continuing transit of Uranus (the revolution) through Taurus (currency, taxation) across our skies.
On January 12 2020 we find Uranus at 2 Taurus, exactly semi-sextile Salacia at 2 Aries. She is Neptune’s wife and usually ignored by most astrologers, but she is extremely important. Like Neptune she is about alternatives to the real world. Chiron is really close by at 1 Aries and so a picture is beginning to build about a share market or economic revolution (Uranus in Taurus) alongside a big trend of self-interest, and ‘Me-ism’ as Aries is really about me-first thinking. Aesculapia is at 0 Cancer, Diana is at 0 Libra and this cluster around 0-1-2 degrees is prominent.
The bottom line about all Capricorn-styled hierarchies like big business, big government or royal dynasties is either a) political donation or b) inherited wealth. This brings us back to taxation. You would have to say that part of this crisis and detox in January is about taxes, one way or another. I would also suspect, political donations and of course, political bribery. Banks are at the core of this.
If you are curious about the asteroids I have mentioned here and the Trans-Neptunian, Salacia, then hit Search on this website. You can also see at a glance just how they play out, by looking at your personal birth chart, if you are a Premium Member and seeing how these powerful players work in your horoscope.
Uranus in Taurus, travelling through your horoscope, helps The Capricorn Effect. Hvorfor? Because the planet of revolution, rebellion, independence and freedom is in the money sign, and it will trine, or make stunning patterns, with the birth position of Uranus for billions. All those people, and you may be one of them, born with Uranus in Virgo or Uranus in Capricorn, will experience what is known as Uranus trine Uranus, and that is a call to action, where finance is concerned.
The new rules of your money? Keep it flexible, stay on top of financial news on a daily basis, keep surfing, be ready to catch a different wave. Uranus is unpredictable, erratic, and you’ll need to learn to ride out storms, starting May 2018.
The New Banking, The New Marketplace
As I write this in December 2017 most of the the financial experts are up in arms about Bitcoin. They are telling anyone who will listen that Bitcoin and all its competitors in the cryptocurrency world are dangerous; that if you invest in them you will lose your money. Despite this, astrology tells us that we are going to see new banking, with global digital currency, become a mainstream reality on the worldwide web, with new marketplaces to buy and sell, trade, shop – and do business.
The ‘why’ of the extreme pressure on big business and corporations, and governments, is best answered by this. The new ‘people’s banks’ online using newly invented virtual currency, will take their place alongside ‘people’s markets’ also online. Imagine a world without tax – an alternative bubble world, where you earn and pay as you have never done before. That may be one of the reasons why the old institutions are threatened. Uranus in Taurus (the money revolution) will make it easy for Uranus in Virgo people (the work revolution) and Uranus in Capricorn people (the career revolution) to radically change their job/salary.
The Eclipses Across Cancer 2018, 2019, 2020
Along with the bare fact that 2018-2020 is about Saturn, Pluto – and then Ceres and Jupiter – in the business/government sign of Capricorn – there is also Cancer to consider. The fact is, billions of people with horoscope factors in Cancer will be affected by a series of oppositions, as these slow-moving outer planets pass through Capricorn, which stands opposite Cancer in the horoscope, and have to reach deeply into their ideas about home, home town, homeland, property and family to find out what matters most. This is really what oppositions do. They force you to become more of what you are, because you are challenged there.
This is bound to be about patriotic feeling versus the changes in so many world governments and royal families which are coming. It is also bound to be about property prices, property values, mortgages and the rest.
If you do have Cancer placements then issues like council tax, house prices, interest rates, residency and other classic Fourth House matters are right in the frame for you, starting December 2017 through December 2020 so make it your business to be on top of all that’s occurring, especially at local or national government level.
Saturn, possibly Pluto (if you have Cancer factors at 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23) and both Ceres and the South Node will oppose, or clash with, your Cancer horoscope placements for a good chunk of 2018, 2019 or 2020.
Get informed and factor that into your astrology!
Your Cancer Personal Birth Chart Factors
We have the North Node going through Cancer from November 7 2018 until May 5 2020 so if you are one of the billions with a Cancer placement in your chart (or more than one) then you will experience a real moment of truth about home, home town, homeland, house, apartment, family, household across this period – most likely in 2019. The Node is about karma. There will be repetition, karmic repayment and perhaps a reincarnation settlement. In modern astrology the Nodes are very much about your past life and the debts or credits you need to address.
We are also going to see eclipses across Cancer as follows – and if you have anything in your chart at Cancer 10, 20, 24 then near the dates in question there will be a cover-up, blind spot or partial jigsaw, giving you an incomplete picture. Be sharply aware of that with family or property. I will remind you as we come closer to the time, in your usual Premium Member extended reading, if you have membership.
Because of these oppositions coming in from Capricorn across 2018, 2019, 2020 it does feel as if you’ll have an episode involving your people or your place, where the ‘manure’ impact of Saturn has an effect. A typical example would be the Mayor being accused of sexual assault, which has an impact on the high-rise developments in your street. The shit hits the fan for you, and so it has a direct effect on your apartment and your roadworks, property prices and the rest.
Another example might be a government raising mortgage interest rates with the bank, which affects your plans to buy a house. A classic example of a Capricorn opposition from Saturn or Ceres to your Cancer factors, would be a transformation in a corporation leading to a family member’s promotion, or even departure. This in turn changes the family circle and maybe the rent you all pay in a property. A flatmate can lose her job and move out. All that!
I am only focusing on the eclipses here, because they are blind-spot times when you may want to proceed as if you can’t see everything and don’t know everything! I do think it’s important that you know the dates of the eclipses and allow a day either side for missing information or even real cover-ups.
In general, to figure out what is going on with your Cancer and Fourth House patterns, you need to look no further than the Ceres transit of November 2019 through January 2020. Why? Because Ceres in Capricorn will oppose one/all of your Cancer placements then and so the end of 2019 and start of 2020 is time to share, compromise, negotiate and accept – where your house, apartment, home town, homeland, household or family is concerned.

13 July 2018 – Partial Eclipse – Moon 20 Cancer
2 July 2019 – Total Eclipse – Sun and Moon at 10 Cancer
16 July 2019 – Partial Eclipse – Sun 24 Cancer, Moon 24 Capricorn
10 January 2020 – Penumbral Eclipse – Sun 20 Capricorn, Moon 20 Cancer
Diana, Camilla and the 2 July 2019 Eclipse
Astrology and history tell us the same thing. Eclipses are always a cover-up. There is a black-out. It powerfully and strangely affects the natural course of things. What should be seen, is not seen. In their book, Eclipses , Derek Appleby and Maurice McCann looked at this phenomenon. “At a total eclipse, as the light of the Sun is obscured by the Moon and darkness falls, flowers which normally close up by night and open by day react by closing their petals; birds go to roost and animals begin to bed-down. As totality ends, the cock stretches his neck and begins to crow, to welcome the ‘new day.’
There is always something dark and shadowy that alters the course of history on a total eclipse, but we never know at the time – it emerges months later.
The Total Eclipse of 2 July 2019 will be like this, and it does indeed fall right on the 10 Cancer South Node of the House of Windsor (17 July 1917, 12.00pm, London) so as usual, the British royal family are up to their usual subterfuge. I have no idea if an astrologer is still on call at the House of Windsor or not, but they have a habit of either covering things up on eclipses, or even using favourable publicity announcements (births, weddings) to mask more serious matters. Given their constant media spotlight and tremendous responsibility, you can see why the blackouts occur. They need their secrets. However, as so many of us pay for them, we need to know about their secrets, too.
Camilla, the love of Prince Charles’s life, was born on 17 July 1947 at 7.00am in London (Solar Fire) and she has Venus at 10 Cancer. The eclipse of 2 July falls right on her Venus position – the planet of complicated relationships, marriage and also adultery.
This story about the Duchess in 2019 is far more likely to impact the millions of people with Cancer factors at 10 degrees in the Commonwealth countries and Britain in terms of their roots, heritage, history, culture, patriotism and the rest – Camilla is, at time of writing, the future consort of the King of the Commonwealth.
As always with eclipses, we will have to wait until there is a major transit at 10 Cancer to see what was likely concealed. That will happen from October 27 to 8 November 2019, when the North Node is at 10 Cancer. All eyes on Camilla, then, because whatever is taking place, would have an impact on people’s feelings about Queen and Country/King and nationhood in the Commonwealth. Camilla was born with the Moon at 9 Cancer, so very close by to that 10 Cancer Venus position. That’s a direct hit.
Princess Diana and the 2 July 2019 Cover-Up
Horoscopes continue to work, even after we leave the planet. This is probably because we continue as souls in the spirit world. Diana, Princess of Wales, was born on 1 July 1961 at 7.45pm in Sandringham, though a question about her birth time remains. A changed time would not affect the position of her Sun at 8 and Apollo at 9 Cancer, very much though, and they are right on Camilla’s Venus and Moon.
This blind spot, black spot, grey area or missing information with that 2 July eclipse is also about Diana. Again, we will have to wait for the Node to cross 8 and 9 Cancer, in November 2019, to see what we missed about July. Diana’s life was ruled by eclipses – she married near two, and passed away near one. Thus, perhaps, the ongoing mysteries about her.
I am sure you can see the obvious flashing neon sign here in mid-2019. The 2 July eclipse moment is just one day after Diana’s birthday. Prince Harry’s Ascendant (his physical appearance, public image, name, title and profile) is at 11 Capricorn and his Descendant (Meghan Markle) is at 11 Cancer.
I’m afraid astrologers have always been poking their noses into royal life, ever since Dr. John Dee drew up a coronation horoscope for Queen Elizabeth I and not much has changed in our profession! Yet – while there are still unanswered questions about Diana’s death, and her legacy, I always feel compelled to point out relevant transits, especially if they involve eclipses and cover-ups, too.
Other Dates to Watch – The United Nations and United States Cover-Up, July 2 2019
The United Nations was founded on 25 April, 1945 at 12.00pm in San Francisco with the South Node at 11 Capricorn and North Node at 11 Cancer. This 11 Cancer position is very close to the eclipse at 10 Cancer on July 2 2019. Expect a cover-up at this time, probably about matters of nationhood, patriotism, or more likely – territory. (Cancer rules the ownership of land). Quite possibly, in the U.N. at this time, there may be classically Cancerian cover-ups around nationality, visa or passport issues too – like residency. When will we likely find out what we weren’t told or shown? October 27 to 8 November 2019 when the North Node is at 10 Cancer and triggers the whole thing, karmically and publicly.
The United States in her horoscope, set for 2 January 1776 (when she was first named) has the Sun at 11 Cancer, so this is just one degree away. You can see why historically the U.S.A. and U.N. have always been connected. This date, 2 July 2019, is very close to the 4 July Independence Day celebrations for the United States. Remember that period, because that eclipse will black out what we need to see. Diana’s birthday and the 4 July, and a darkened sky. It’s always good to be aware of these things!
Jupiter Conjunct Pluto in 2020 and What to Expect From the Government Detox
2008 is a good test year for Capricorn patterns because we had both Jupiter and Pluto in that sign. In fact, Pluto had not been in Capricorn for around 240 years. Jupiter the growth, improvement and hope planet went 3 through 28 degrees of Capricorn right over America’s Tenth House (the White House). Pluto the power-change planet went 0 through 1 degree so he was ‘on’ the Mercury position for the USA all year.
Barack Obama became President and Joe Biden, Vice-President. They defeated John McCain and Sarah Palin. Obama became the first African-American President in history and Joe Biden the first Roman Catholic V.P. Apart from Sarah Palin, women also rose that year as Hillary Clinton ran a sharp contest against Obama for nomination.
Jupiter expands! It opens things up so more becomes possible and we can all explore further – go higher – go wider. We are going to see more women and people of colour, coming into high level politics and business, in 2020. It may also be time for others who have never been allowed at the top, to emerge.
Merry Christmas, December 2020 – The Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction in Capricorn
This momentous year ends with Jupiter at 29 Capricorn and Saturn at 29 Capricorn on December 15, 16, 17. Venus is close by at 29 Scorpio, so circle Tuesday 15 December in your diary, as this may not be a merry Christmas, but it is going to be a fulfilling one, with the usual relief and release that we feel, when Saturn leaves a zodiac sign. What comes to pass just before Christmas Day is closure. What lies ahead is the Age of Aquarius. Really. Truly.
The Age of Aquarius – Welcome to the New World Order
Jupiter and Saturn in their new zodiac sign of Aquarius (groups, friendships, communities, networks) will replace the old, dead, corporate and government systems of the 20 and early 21 centuries with the most idealistic, hopeful, vision of the future we have ever seen. These two planets working together in 2021 will pave the way for the arrival of Pluto in Aquarius in 2023 and that will in turn, take us to 2026, almost ten years into the future as I write this in December 2017. In 2026, not only Pluto will be in Aquarius, but the North Node too, and this has never happened in your lifetime, nor mine. I look forward to discussing it with you, about a decade from now. Set your astrological alarm clock!
Summing Up Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn – The Capricorn Effect
- From the time that Saturn enters Capricorn on December 21 2017 and the last day he is there, December 17 2020 the world will see a serious, historic, test of its leadership, corporations, monarchies and governments. Because Pluto and Saturn will meet on 12th January 2020, alongside Ceres and Mercury, very close to that date we will see a crisis that leads to long overdue improvements, as Jupiter dominates the year. The improvements will be hard-won. We will see people at the top – Presidents, Prime Ministers, leaders, executives – demoted and promoted in a major global switch. Power changes hands. There may also be losses and departures at the top, and the elevation of others. It’s a system change.
- If you have anything in Capricorn in your personal birth chart – asteroid, planet, point, angle – then you will be personally affected by national and global trends which are bigger than you. These deep changes at the top, and in the structure of multinationals and governments, will have a direct or ripple effect on your career. If you don’t work, then this will be about your unpaid work or university degree – your calling and role. To know when/why/how please read the extra Premium Membership information every week as I always highlight when the patterns appear and explain if your chart is affected.
- The House of Windsor, in Great Britain, will be profoundly affected by the change in the balance of power to come (Pluto) and the difficult realities of Saturn. The typical carve-up and compromise over power and control which comes with Ceres is also part of the story. The spotlight is well and truly on Diana and Camilla as eclipses and the Node dance across their birth charts.
- Pensions, superannuation and retirement age will become critical questions for people born in the 1960’s and long overdue reform will come in 2020 after a difficult period of 1-2 years.
- The old Mexican, American and Canadian trade agreements will be transformed or replaced. The United States will also have Saturn and Ceres, the South Node and then Jupiter across her Sun at 11 Capricorn, using the chart set for 2 January 1776 at 12.00pm noon in Cambridge, Massachusetts. This is an identity crisis, transformation and resurrection for one of the most ambitious nations on earth.
- North Korea and the United Nations, and the nuclear hierarchy across the planet, will be under intense focus and reformed in 2020 after a point of no return in January 2020, which owes much karmically to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. There will be an element of luck or protection in January but the risk of conflict is very real. Watch Japan. She is a Tiger Economy along with South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore. Low pay for workers in the Tiger nations is a classic example of a Pluto in Capricorn problem waiting to happen. There is also the very real nuclear threat of North Korea to watch in 2019-2020.
- The John F. Kennedy legacy for his family, the Democrats and the Nation will also be under intense scrutiny in 2018, 2019, 2020.
- If you have anything in Cancer in your personal birth chart then at some point either Saturn or Ceres in Capricorn will oppose that in the December 2017-January 2020 cycle. It is also possible that Pluto may oppose your Cancer factors. Remembering that Capricorn is about government and big business, and Cancer is about your home, home town, homeland, family, household – you are going to see the former challenge your ideas about the latter. To know when, how and why – do read the extra information in the weekly horoscopes for Premium Members because I always list the numbers and dates.
- The European Union, the EU and the Euro will simply not survive this period as we know them today, because so many of their member countries were written into history on 1 January and thus the horoscopes are all triggered by January 2020 changes. This, along with the fact that Uranus (the revolution) is in Taurus (money) means we are going to see the rise and rise of cryptocurrency, and alternative ‘people’s banks’ and ‘people’s marketplaces’ online, severely challenging the banking system – and in fact, our whole world of work and taxes.
- We all hope for a happy ending in astrology and in life – and we are going to get one. Jupiter will meet Pluto repeatedly in 2020 and help to detox, clean up, repair and renew corporate, royal and government life. The year ends with an historic conjunction or meeting between Jupiter at 29 Capricorn and Saturn at 29 Capricorn on December 15, 16, 17. Merry Christmas 2020? Well, maybe not merry, but certainly deeply satisfying, highly fulfilling and also the beginning of something very new indeed – The Age of Aquarius.That’s another story, though, for another time!
