EXCERPT:

So let us assume that the period of time within 18 months of August 1, 2010 is an important “shift” in the direction of Humankind, as indicated by the principles of astrology.

At the center of all this geocosmic activity is Pluto, that far-out celestial body that astronomers recently announced that they have downgraded from a planet to a “dwarf planet.” You will be pleased to know that in May 2008, at the United Astrological Conference (UAC) in Denver, professional astrologers form all over the world will gather, and they will make an announcement too, that indeed, in their opinion and via their collective observations on the correspondence of Pluto to cycles in Human activity, Pluto is very much a planet – and not a simple “dwarf planet.”

In the next 7 years, and especially 2008-2010, Pluto will assume a powerful position in the heavens in relationship to other planets.

First of all, Pluto will enter Capricorn on January 26, 2008. It will only stay there until June 13, when it retrogrades back to Sagittarius until November 26, 2008. Then it remains firmly positioned in Capricorn through March 23, 2023. Pluto’s orbit around the Sun is a very long 248-year cycle. During that time, we will expect to see many major changes in the world, which we will discuss shortly, for Pluto represents the principle of reform, and Capricorn the principle of structure and boundaries. Structures and boundaries will likely be transformed in a radical way, and this will have extremely important relevance to investment decisions, and well as political and economic ramifications.

Secondly, Pluto will be at the midpoint of a T-square involving the Saturn-Uranus opposition of 2008-2010, especially at the end of this period when both Saturn and Uranus enter cardinal signs too. This too is a very rate configuration, which last occurred in1930-31.

Thirdly, Pluto will form a waning square to Uranus 7 times over a three-year period, from 2012-2015. This is huge aspect in terms of importance. The last time this type of square unfolded was in 1876-1877.

Fourth, Pluto will be in opposition to the USA Venus and Jupiter, 2008-2010 for the first time ever. Venus rules the currency of a country, and with Pluto, its banks and institutions where values are stored.

Fifth, Pluto conjuncts the Sun in the Federal Reserve Board chart, and opposes it Pluto, in 2008-2009, for the first time ever. In this case, Pluto represents a major transformation of the institution, and perhaps its demise.

A sixth point of interest has more to do with the Saturn-Uranus opposition than Pluto’s position. On November 4, 2008, when the USA election tales place, Saturn will form its first of 5 oppositions to Uranus. It will take place at 18-19 Virgo-Pisces, forming a grand square to the chart of Fed Chair Ben Bernanke, involving his natal Sun, Moon, and Jupiter.

3. A great article, worth the effort. It sounds like he's been right on, except for a

little bit of timing (he thought the crisis would come after the election.)
