July 21 finds us with Saturn re-entering Libra - this time for the remainder of its transit until early October 2012.
July 26, it opposes Uranus in the fifth and final Saturn-Uranus opposition, this time at zero Libra/Aries, completing a 2.5 year cycle of oppositions that has rattled and shaken our structural realities to the point that they are now barely recognizable. A smooth and gradual transition it was not.
Between July 26 and August 20, Saturn will be moving to its third and final square to Pluto in Capricorn, also completing that cycle which began in November 2009.
So we have all these cycles completing at the same time as we're experiencing a second very powerful cardinal t-square - this one much longer-lasting - coming at us from Libra now instead of Cancer. Cycles are completing while we simultaneously have potent frictional impetus to actions initiated, new directions taken, new allegiances formed and underway - all in light of the stresses and difficulties of these transitional and transformational (for good or ill) times on Planet Earth.
The summer of 2010 is a big summer in the scope of things, to say the least.
Saturn in late Virgo has always been within range of these squares, but I was unable to call the configuration in late June a "Cardinal Grand Cross" because Saturn was not in a cardinal sign. It was an energetic Grand Cross - within degree but not by sign.
The cardinal t-square we experienced around June 26 (coinciding with the Full Moon Capricorn eclipse) involved the Sun and Mercury in Cancer opposing Pluto and the Moon in Capricorn squaring Jupiter-Uranus in Aries. Saturn in Virgo created the fourth leg - again, an energetic Grand Cross but not a full Cardinal Grand Cross. Virgoan details.
The Sun and Mercury are fast-moving planets, so the time frame of this initial cardinal t-square was very quick. An insanely intense energetic configuration in a tiny window of time - like a warp speed imprinting of energetic potential, with ripple effects for the next five years of cardinal squares but also for the next 2,000+ of the astrological Aquarian era. So you see why our full awareness and informed actions/decisions were and continue to be so important.
When Saturn re-enters Libra in a couple weeks, the Sun and Mercury will be out of range of their square from Cancer, but it will shift into full cardinal t-square alignment opposing Uranus and Jupiter in Aries and squaring Pluto in Capricorn.
Jupiter in Aries is stationing in exact square to Pluto Rx in Capricorn, increasing the potency of this energy and configuration.
I know it sounds like a broken record about how powerful these configurations are, but they really are. Layer after layer, aspect after aspect. We're ticking the seconds off of an entire 2,000+ astrological era (Pisces) and transitioning into a new 2,000+ cycle (Aquarius). Intuitively, I like Carl Johan Calleman's date for the actual ending of the Mayan calendar - October 28, 2011. This seems to fit the intensity and the acceleration we're experiencing, indicated astrologically.
To be honest, I'm not sure if human beings will be around for the full Aquarian cycle considering the state of things currently and the direction things seems to be taking straight out of the gate (at least, the human beings who share aspects of my personal spiritual lineage and energetic reason for being on this planet). But we're here now, so present we shall stay, fighting for our right to exist on this planet despite those doing everything in their power to make things inhabitable for us here.
So they think they can do this planet without us, eh? Hmm...
We're personally invested in what goes on here. God is invested in us. What we do with our time here matters - especially, at this point, in what we do with others, the quality of our relationships. And Mars and Venus, soon to be entering Libra, are coming to the table within this cardinal t-square to bring that point to full awareness.
Mars enters Libra July 29, opposes Uranus in Aries July 30, conjuncts Saturn July 31, and opposes stationing Jupiter and squares Pluto Rx in Capricorn August 3. Whew! Seriously.
As if that action weren't enough, Venus enters Libra August 6 and does the same dance Mars did in the cardinal t-square configuration. It opposes Uranus in Aries August 7, conjuncts Saturn in Libra August 8 and opposes Jupiter in Aries and squares Pluto Rx in Capricorn August 9. Whew squared!
This brings us personally into the proceedings. We're not just along for the ride with the transpersonal and intermediary planets (Jupiter and Saturn) acting upon our lives. The personal planets are involved; we're invested. We want and need things to go a certain way here, in more ways than one.
With all the Libra influence, this especially involves our relationships. Considering the context of the times, we no longer have a lot of time (Saturn) to waste in relationships that do not truly honour us or meet our needs. There isn't much room for do-overs now. We're craving quality human beings and quality relationships that we can build upon, invest ourselves in, develop our full potentials within.
What this planet needs are people willing to commit to the sometimes difficult process of harmony-creation and love-building between two people that will start to bring things back to an energetic state of balance. Reaching for the fullest, truest potential of ourselves and each other within relationship, despite the difficulty of the circumstances. Our highest selves, interacting. Every break from that is a break in the chain that the planet (and we) cannot afford at this time.
It's time for a new level of maturity, respect and responsibility toward others.
Our relations, especially romantic love relations, have gone pretty far afield in many cases from the mutually supportive, soul-and-spirit-honouring interchanges they're meant to be. Many people have bought into the idea constantly advertised to us that sex and love are cheap, easy and expendable. Easy come, easy go. Run into a problem? Just toss it into the heap and onto the next. Fast food love.
Now with Saturn entering Libra, things shift. That type of interaction is no longer going to sustain - just as a diet of Big Macs or Whoppers will not sustain. Fast food love and sex will be seen as the toxic energy exchange they are, and we'll crave (and demand) something deeper, better, more befitting who we really are as human beings. Something we can count on. People we can count on.
Maturity, fidelity and seriousness - being serious about each other - are about to get very sexy.
All this summer Libra action is a precursor to the Venus in Scorpio retrograde this fall (October 8 - November 18) when relationships will either end or fuse. Be shed or merge. And we'll be left, post-retro, in a much more real, authentic and raw place from which to relate - soul-to-soul, heart-to-heart, no BS - just how Scorpio (mature Scorpio) likes it.
Pluto and Ceres will finally meet in conjunction during the Venus retrograde in Scorpio, adding to the mythological/archetypal layers and underlying intensity of this time period. We need to clear unfinished business. It's now or never. This is my hope - renewal and restoration in love matters for all of us this fall. The cycle completing and falling away.
We're building on the work of the Pluto in Libra generation here - their stripping down of relationship constructs past their prime, abusive control and power dynamics, and relationship set-ups that deprive us of love, intimacy and closeness while keeping us from reaching our full potentials, together, within them. Stripping the Neptunian illusions and delusions around love and love relationships that set us up so painfully for disappointment and disillusionment.
The relationship constructs going forward will be much more alchemically fluid, dynamic, catalytic - creating an energy that is above and beyond the energy of the two individuals within them. We're not going backward here to relationship dynamics that stifled our love and development in the past - we're drawing the solid, valuable aspects of relationship through time and space into our current relationships. We're moving forward, but we're not leaving any crucial basic foundational tenets behind. This is the conserving influence of Saturn in Libra.
There is a lot going on as we head more fully into a summer, fall and winter that bring our relationships right to the forefront.
Saturn in Libra July 21 will be just the beginning.

Summer 2010 Eclipse Season: G8, G20 and Martial Law A-Plenty
I keep having my attention drawn to the upcoming eclipse season (June - July 2010), and when I draw up the chart for the Full Moon partial lunar eclipse in Capricorn on June 26, I see that it's being drawn for good reason.
This eclipse chart is almost unbelievable in its potency. It's unnerving, considering the energy and events related to the past two eclipse seasons along the Cancer-Capricorn polarity.
And considering the G20 Summit (you know, that unelected "global government" body put in charge of all world economic issues under martial law in September of last year) has been scheduled to coincide with this eclipse in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on June 26-27, 2010. Still think astrology is a bunch of mumbo-jumbo? Your pseudo-elected officials don't think so.
I missed this at the time (since it was announced one day before I became poisoned by Cipro), but the G20 meeting in Toronto will be happening at the same time as the G8 meeting in Huntsville, Ontario, Canada. How's that for Pluto in Capricorn agenda-merging and obscurity from the public? Now they can call martial law into southern Ontario for just one week this summer (maybe) to get their behind-closed-doors agendas passed. A logistical breeze!
The National Post is reporting that the "Integrated Security Unit" (more Pluto in Cap) policing the event will need 5,500 hotel rooms over nine days (June 20 through 28) for members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Ontario Provincial Police, Toronto city police and Canadian Armed Forces. Yep, they're calling in the army on this one. The official number of police and soldiers involved will not be released prior to the event, but according to this report, the accommodation costs alone could be over $8 million.
This is what a police state looks like.
And under the proposed "Security and Prosperity Partnership," the United States' armed forces and police could be called into Canada to enforce events such as these...or anything, really. Only a matter of time? Let's hope not.
Anyway, the June 26 eclipse chart is the classic kind of chart that an astrologer would caution people about. The Moon is currently in Cancer, briefly creating the cardinal t-square dynamics so prevalent this summer and beyond, so here's the cautionary post...
This is not meant to scare anyone, but those who read this blog regularly have more than likely already figured out for themselves that humanity has entered some pretty dicey territory. We're in very strong spiritual territory, as well, but let's not forget the practical realities of what is going on right under our noses.
Pluto entering the early degrees of Capricorn has coincided with many a bomb (Pluto) going off in our business and government structures (Capricorn), bringing to light grand-scale corruption, manipulation, criminality and greed. The best interests of the people are not in the driver's seat here. We had the collapse of the rotten-to-the-core world economy - right on schedule - brought about primarily through predatory mortgage/derivatives schemes, speculation bubbles and various pyramid schemes built on nothing but the hot air of the sales schmos selling them.
Pluto in Sagittarius was ripe for corruption related to big ideas (Sagittarius), no matter how excessively grandiose and detached from common sense practical reality, and when times are ripe for people to take advantage of the situation, there has never been a shortage of those who line up to do so.
So the dominoes were set with inflationary Pluto in Sagittarius, and once Pluto entered Capricorn, the first one was flicked. Plutonic chain reaction.
This triggered the shedding of multi-millions of jobs, now considered unnecessary for the increasingly stream-lined corporate machine. People's lives have been devastated and their emotional well-being is on very shaky ground. Let's not forget this - though the stories of "economic recovery" parroted in a constant loop through the mainstream media are attempting to make us do just that. Those who missed the culling this time around are most certainly being lulled into a false sense of security.
In the ensuing chaos, those desiring pyramid-scheme one world government and corporate oligarchy have driven hard to the net. The mergers and alliances have gone on with Uranian lightning speed, completely obscured from the traumatized public, just trying to be OK with life.
So let's just say that the orchestrated circumstances on this planet are stretching people pretty damned tight - to the breaking point and, unfortunately, beyond.
It turns out the Nazis didn't really lose that war, after all. That was just for show as they retreated, changed tactics and then embedded their armies and ideologies in the day-to-day.
Now, they're tightening the vice ever-so-slowly, and even the people still "safely" in their positions within the system are starting to sweat - if only because they are now expected to do the work of two or three people and to be grateful to do it.
Those attuned to the underlying dynamics have always known things weren't right. We could feel it.
But the majority of people couldn't define the word tyranny, let alone understand how it has permeated their daily lives. To them, this is the territory of paranoids, conspiracy theorists and other assorted wack jobs.
But I see it so clearly. I grew up in a rural farming/ranching and oil area. This is still what people are doing to "make a living" - though I'm not sure how much of a life it is anymore. Farming and ranching have gotten increasingly corporatized and chemicalized. Small farmers have been pushed out of business en masse. Getting bigger and faster, they are told, is the only way to survive if you're playing ball in the corporate system. It's ironic that people who wanted to live a life on the land as their own bosses are now completely caught up in the chemicals, massive, computerized machinery and genetically modified organisms of Agri-business.
Or then you have the people pulling in the real money - those working in the soul-eroding oil fields. And who could blame them, really? We've all had it drilled into our heads since childhood to get that money, no matter what. And they have. Generations have leapt ahead dramatically in the class system - from below the poverty line to comfortably middle class, complete with new homes, new vehicles, campers, snow machines, Harleys, quads. Even the kids have their own quads, dirt bikes, snowmobiles.
So seeing these scenes, reading on Facebook about their home renovations and trips to the Dominican, again I wonder...am I seeing things?
It's very possible all this epic-ness is going down without even ruffling the feathers of the norms. But seeing the eclipse chart, I'm not sure that will be the case post-summer of 2010.
The Full Moon lunar eclipse in Capricorn on June 26 happens at 4 degrees, exactly conjunct retrograding Pluto - Lord of the Underworld, the Great Transformer.
This takes place within a massively potent, almost-exact cardinal t-square at the early degrees - the same t-square that will remain potent during the cardinal seasons with Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn for the next decade.
(This cardinal t-square involves almost every body in the zodiac: Jupiter-Uranus in Aries, Sun-Mercury-Juno-South Node in Cancer, Moon-Pluto-North Node in Capricorn)
If you include Saturn retrograde in late Virgo as the fourth leg in the eclipse chart, it's a Grand Cross. Two oppositions. Four squares. Mucho tension.
So Pluto will be exactly conjunct the Moon. Heavy emotion. In Calgary, these bodies will also be exactly conjunct the Part of Fortune and the Part of Spirit - very fated quality to this eclipse for the city that Big Oil built.
This exact Pluto-Moon conjunction is opposite the Sun in Cancer, which is conjunct Mercury and Juno.
The nodal axis is also within range at 11 degrees, as the North Node moves ever-closer to a conjunction with Pluto in November, just one degree off this eclipse at 3 degrees Capricorn. (November is another potent month, but more on that later...)
Jupiter and Uranus are within two degrees of each other in warrior sign Aries, forming the almost-exact t-square.
Jupiter will have just conjuncted Uranus June 8, dramatically increasing the disruptive potential of Uranus in this eclipse/t-square. Uranus is the planet that brings shocking, unexpected events that leave things forever changed. Events that trigger rebellions, revolutions, radical movement.
So we have this great disruptive potential with Uranus on the very potent zero degree of Aries, a sign ruled by Mars which relates to, among other things, masculine energy, war, anger and aggression. And this energy is made bigger and more expansive post-conjunction to Jupiter, which makes everything it touches broader-reaching. Squaring Pluto in Capricorn, which is known for traumatic, hell-ride experiences designed for complete personal and collective gutting and transformation (ie. not good times). Along with the extra disruptive potential of an eclipse going down exactly conjunct Pluto. Sounds like fun, huh? :-) Very, very volatile.
Martial law in Ontario, Canada with surrounding areas on high alert.
We don't need another Kent or Jackson State this summer, so let's hold our intent for the safety of the protesters and urge the utmost caution with the demonstrations. No uneccessary risks. Mars will be exactly conjunct Vesta in Virgo, so temperance is key. Again, not something you would associate with Mars, but here, we must apply it.
We've also got Chiron at zero Pisces conjunct Black Moon Lilith - so here's that denied, vilified, segmented, feminine spiritual aspect of human life on Earth and the deep wounding we carry because of its enforced invisibility and abuse. Here's the perspective the protesters will be bringing to the scene, speaking out about the destruction and devastation of these enforced agendas. They'll be kept marginalized by fences and police, far from the negotiating tables (BML), but their energy will not go to waste.
The difficult role of these two is the equivalent of telling an oil exec clutching his inflated paycheque about the spiritual and soul-level destruction being caused by the oil industry, for example. He'd laugh you out of town, if not punch you. Or warning a Monsanto executive about the damage chemical and GMO farming are doing to the entire ecosystem, the animals, the people, the spiritual and physical health of the whole. The complete affront to nature. Again, not heeded, and more often, ridiculed and criminalized.
Chiron-BML in early Pisces is a powerful placement here. The Goddess weeps in this chart, but her depth and strength presiding over the proceedings are undeniable. Chiron-BML will be in tight trine to the Sun-Mercury in Cancer and sextile the Moon-Pluto in Capricorn. The feminine is righteous here, and she knows it.
These themes go on every day, in every way, and those who truly respect and heed feminine wisdom and live Piscean spiritual understanding carry a big burden for a collective that prefers to look the other way. You can't really explain it to people who don't understand. And then you have to watch as they continue the destruction...
The Sabian symbols associated with the eclipse also tell a cautionary tale:
Sun in Cancer - "At a Railroad Crossing, An Automobile is Wrecked By a Train"
Mercury in Cancer - "An Arctic Explorer Leads a Reindeer Through Icy Canyons"
Moon and Pluto in Capricorn - "Indians - Some Rowing a Canoe While Others Are Dancing a War Dance"
Chiron in Pisces - "A Crowded Public Marketplace"
Black Moon Lilith in Pisces: "Heavy Car Traffic Linking Two Seaside Resorts"
These are powerfully fated, grand-scale collective dynamics going on. Nothing is going to stop these energies from doing what they need to do, so it's best to go with the path of least resistance this summer, sidestepping as much of it as possible. Being caught at cross-purposes with an aggressive Grand Cross of this nature would not be a good thing. Be aware that people and situations are going to be pulled very taut at this time and the smallest of provocations could trigger volatility.
We're in a cardinal season now - Aries - and what is triggered now is lead-up to this summer's cardinal season - Cancer.
As a series, this definitely relates to the summer of 2009 triple eclipses/double New Moons in Cancer. (The eclipses were in Capricorn-Cancer-Aquarius.) That was an extremely emotional set of eclipses (I think we now understand why) that unhinged and uprooted things in a big way related to past-present-future and the gut-wrenching necessity of finding new soul homes and new emotional anchors within the burgeoning Aquarian paradigm.
The second set of eclipses on New Year's Eve, 2009 and January 15, 2010 coincided with the devastating earthquake in Haiti that left at least 200,000 people dead, possibly as many as 500,000, and a couple million more homeless.
Now, the summer of 2010 is the third set of Cancer/Capricorn eclipses, and there are more big shake-ups possible.
The energy and events kicked up by this third set of Cancer/Capricorn eclipses should have the effect of shifting us into new positions and settling us on new foundations, in a much different set of circumstances than we've been in previously. These shake-ups will click the initial positioning at the beginning of the cardinal degrees into place.
The old situations (emotional, physical, spiritual) have been shattered by the process intensified by the previous eclipses, and now the puzzle pieces are back together to the point that we can start to make out a picture. A potent starting point for the events of the next decade on this planet - for both people living for true freedom and autonomy and those paying lip service to that while attempting to lock nefarious Pluto in Capricorn agendas into place. This is why our actions and the directions we take are so important now.
In such tight formation, the energies associated will be working with surgeon-like precision, carving out the placements. There's no room for error now. Again, this chart has an extremely fated quality to it, soemthing you do not want to be at cross-purposes with. If any of your plans meet resistance, please take heed.
The follow-up New Moon solar eclipse in Cancer happens July 11, and it is total.
Sandwiched between both these eclipses we have Canada Day (July 1) and Independence Day (July 4) in the United States. Both these countries are Cancer Suns, and these eclipses are, unfortunately, probably going to coincide with a final push toward merger - without public knowledge or consent.
And as previously noted (big surprise!), the upcoming meeting of the G20 will be held June 26-27 in Ontario, Canada, alongside the G8 meeting. If I recall correctly, the original date of these summits was actually changed to land on this weekend.
So you can see the agendas within the agendas here.
Let's just keep our fingers crossed that the extremes we've been experiencing with Pluto in Capricorn and the Cancer/Capricorn eclipses have stirred the people into taking a stand and creating an alternative, rather than heading full-on into unelected one world government structures and corporate compliance.
All this and Sarah Palin's getting a reality TV show. Jesus.
This eclipse chart is almost unbelievable in its potency. It's unnerving, considering the energy and events related to the past two eclipse seasons along the Cancer-Capricorn polarity.
And considering the G20 Summit (you know, that unelected "global government" body put in charge of all world economic issues under martial law in September of last year) has been scheduled to coincide with this eclipse in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on June 26-27, 2010.

Be aware that people and situations are going to be pulled very taut at this time and the smallest of provocations could trigger volatility.
We're in a cardinal season now - Aries - and what is triggered now is lead-up to this summer's cardinal season - Cancer.
As a series, this definitely relates to the summer of 2009 triple eclipses/double New Moons in Cancer. (The eclipses were in Capricorn-Cancer-Aquarius.) That was an extremely emotional set of eclipses (I think we now understand why) that unhinged and uprooted things in a big way related to past-present-future and the gut-wrenching necessity of finding new soul homes and new emotional anchors within the burgeoning Aquarian paradigm.
The second set of eclipses on New Year's Eve, 2009 and January 15, 2010 coincided with the devastating earthquake in Haiti that left at least 200,000 people dead, possibly as many as 500,000, and a couple million more homeless.
Now, the summer of 2010 is the third set of Cancer/Capricorn eclipses, and there are more big shake-ups possible.
The energy and events kicked up by this third set of Cancer/Capricorn eclipses should have the effect of shifting us into new positions and settling us on new foundations, in a much different set of circumstances than we've been in previously. These shake-ups will click the initial positioning at the beginning of the cardinal degrees into place.
The old situations (emotional, physical, spiritual) have been shattered by the process intensified by the previous eclipses, and now the puzzle pieces are back together to the point that we can start to make out a picture. A potent starting point for the events of the next decade on this planet - for both people living for true freedom and autonomy and those paying lip service to that while attempting to lock nefarious Pluto in Capricorn agendas into place. This is why our actions and the directions we take are so important now.
In such tight formation, the energies associated will be working with surgeon-like precision, carving out the placements. There's no room for error now. Again, this chart has an extremely fated quality to it, soemthing you do not want to be at cross-purposes with. If any of your plans meet resistance, please take heed.
The follow-up New Moon solar eclipse in Cancer happens July 11, and it is total.
Sandwiched between both these eclipses we have Canada Day (July 1) and Independence Day (July 4) in the United States. Both these countries are Cancer Suns, and these eclipses are, unfortunately, probably going to coincide with a final push toward merger - without public knowledge or consent.
And as previously noted (big surprise!), the upcoming meeting of the G20 will be held June 26-27 in Ontario, Canada, alongside the G8 meeting. If I recall correctly, the original date of these summits was actually changed to land on this weekend.
So you can see the agendas within the agendas here.
Let's just keep our fingers crossed that the extremes we've been experiencing with Pluto in Capricorn and the Cancer/Capricorn eclipses have stirred the people into taking a stand and creating an alternative, rather than heading full-on into unelected one world government structures and corporate compliance.
All this and Sarah Palin's getting a reality TV show. Jesus.

Astrological New Year, Spring Equinox and International Astrology Day
I just want to post something to shift things a little after all the watery, surrender-requiring, in-the-void Pisces we've been experiencing. It feels as if we've been dealing with it for decades now (more like millenia?).
Anyway, today the Sun passes through the final degree of the zodiac. The anaretic to end all anaretics - 29 Pisces. This marks the end of the zodiac year and the beginning of a new one as the Sun enters Aries (11:32 a.m. MDT tomorrow).
This is always the case this time of year, but passes of the Sun through Pisces are even more poignant now than usual as we rapidly near the end of the entire astrological Piscean Era. The endings are deeper and more all-encompassing and a little more teary as we say goodbye to an entire 2,000+ year phase of human spiritual development on this planet. And to many of the spirits who helped bring it about. Honour.
The entry into Aries is also more potent than usual. It triggers the most cardinal of cardinal points as we gear up for much longer-term t-square action in the cardinal signs over the next nine or so years - massive amounts of initiating energy. We head into something new.
The Sun enters Aries late tomorrow morning, marking the Spring Equinox and a new zodiac year. (This day has also been declared International Astrology Day!)
After all the Piscean end-of-the-cycle, end-of-many-cycles energy, tossing us this way and that in the name of era-completion, we really desire some freshness, some movement, a new thread of a new direction - and something it feels as if we, personally, have a say in for a change! We want some life breathed back into us because the fin-de-Piscean-Era Pisces we've been dealing with packs a real wallop.
We've definitely got some cardinal fire energy representin' right now. Venus, Mercury and the Sun are in the sign of the ram, ready to bust forward with all their might into some less stifling territory.
But on the other hand, we've got that cardinal t-square keeping all movement in tight check. The tightest of checks, with Saturn and Pluto putting the squeeze on.
Venus led the way into Aries March 7 and into the cardinal t-square involving Saturn Rx in Libra and Pluto in Capricorn - that same cardinal t-square that will be initiating massive restructuring and new relationships in almost every arena over this next year and beyond.
Mercury followed Venus into Aries March 17, opposing Saturn Rx in Libra, and it will square Pluto in Capricorn early tomorrow morning, just before the equinox.
So we've got these planets heading into the first sign of the zodiac, all raring to go, ready to burst forth into a whole new cycle. We want ac-tion, satisfac-tion, and all that.
But as soon as a planet hits Aries, it has an opposition to Saturn Rx in Libra and then a square to Pluto in Capricorn with which to contend. The freedom of movement, strength and vitality planets in Aries are used to is being heavily filtered.
Not so fast there, partner! There is a very tenuous balance going on here, and too much Arien shooting from the hip could lead to some pretty diastrous results. We're not just in happy-go-lucky springtime here (are we ever, really?). The context of our Arien fresh starts this year is just a touch on the deadly serious side. 'Careful' is not a word usually associated with Aries, but we're having to apply it.
Combine that with trines to still-sluggish Mars in Leo (dispositor of all the planets in Aries), hanging out just direct on the first degree after its three-month retrograde, and you've got more speed bumps. Purposeful speed bumps, of course, but Aries doesn't much like anything that slows it down when it's wanting to get a move on.
This will, of course, make any movement and progress we do manage much more long-term meaningful. All these checks and balances ensure that we're heading in just the right direction now - the path is quite narrow, sometimes severely so, so being squeezed through this cardinal t-square is helping us avoid going off half-cocked and wasting any of our very valuable raw, primal energy. The new directions initiated by Aries now have much deeper, more long-term effects than we can even imagine at the moment.
The personal planets doing their thing in the sign of the warrior are setting a longer-term stage for the epic battles of Uranus in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn, as well as for the final opposition between Saturn and Uranus (on those super potent zero degrees of Libra and Aries) July 26 and the final square of Saturn in Libra to Pluto in Capricorn August 20. It's a big summer.
The long-term Uranus in Aries - Pluto in Capricorn square series (June 2012 - March 2015) relates to broader, collective tensions: human beings fighting for autonomy, freedom and survival in the face of corrupt, hierarchical control structures and an increasingly tight (though decreasingly effective) stranglehold by corporate oligarchy.
A narrow path, it certainly is, to freedom. But here are the clashes between those who desire a truly free humanity on this planet, those who desire to BE a truly free humanity, and those doing everything in their power to ensnare and enslave in order to energetically and physically prop up same-old, same-old pyramid-scheme hierarchies.
The battles will continue to be physical, unfortunately, as ongoing power struggles and direction-clashes on the world stage spawn new "leadership," enforcing their rules with armed might. But they will also be spiritual, and those are the battles invisible to most people.
It's important to note that those working to further the same old control mechanisms will not be speaking in blatant Pluto in Capricorn terms, either. That will be the underlying push, understood by those fully trained in deep Pluto lessons.
The false Aquarian leaders will be speaking the language of Uranus in Aries - "freedom," "community," "fighting for change." Obama territory. The agenda is to turn people on with pseudo-fresh, "wave of change" language while wasting people's time and energy with the left versus right paradigm long enough to lock down nefarious Pluto in Capricorn agendas.
It's a many-headed beast with many names - one name for the political machine being communitarianism.
So the Uranus-Pluto battles will be going down on all fronts. Free and autonomous human beings struggling with a sucking, Plutonic vortex of control and manipulation. Powerful stuff. This is why our training in these areas has been so thorough. Our vigilance and awareness is crucially important as we demand, and keep demanding, freedom from the tentacles.
It's going to take a lot of courage to go forward aware. It always does. But this is how we're potent and effective - the only way we are. And this is how we get to real change - the change we've risked so much for generation after generation.
The directions we take initially as we get this astrological Aquarian Era off the ground as well as the particular version of the future we are personally willing to fight for are important themes.
The Uranus-Pluto squares in Aries and Capricorn come to exactness seven times between June 2012 and March 2015 and are most potent around then.
However, we get a taste of this square beginning May 28 when Uranus hits the zero degree of Aries, just before it retrogrades (July 5) and dips back into Pisces (August 14). Uranus will enter Aries for good March 2011, and the effects of the Uranus-Pluto squares will be full-on until Uranus enters Taurus completely (no retrograding back into Aries) in March 2019.
This is not to say that we're going to be in a constant state of clashing and battling - because that's a trap, too. As always, understanding the broader astrological transits helps us understand the context of the times in which we are living, the themes, and, hopefully, helps us understand and better navigate the circumstances of our personal lives. Our personal directions are connected to the broader shifts and vice versa.
Freedom, baby. It's what we're here for.
So take a deep breath. It's going to be quite the decade, and we're just now underway.

Saturn-Uranus Oppositions Leading to Uranus-Pluto Squares: The Long Range Astro View
Saturn-Uranus Opposition Cycle:
1. November 4, 2008 (Saturn 18 Virgo/Uranus 18 Pisces)
2. February 5, 2009 (Saturn Rx 20 Virgo/Uranus 20 Pisces)
3. September 15, 2009 (Saturn 24 Virgo/Uranus Rx 24 Pisces)
4. April 26, 2010 (Saturn Rx 28 Virgo/Uranus 28 Pisces)
5. July 26, 2010 (Saturn 0 Libra/Uranus Rx 0 Aries)
Saturn and Uranus will both move from mutable signs (transitioning, adapting) to cardinal signs (initiating, new directions), and we start a series of cardinal squares with Saturn in Libra, Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn.
Saturn enters Libra October 29, 2009, retrogrades back into Virgo April 7, 2010, and re-enters Libra for good July 21, 2010.
Uranus enters Aries May 27, 2010, retrogrades back into Pisces August 13, 2010, and re-enters Aries for good March 11, 2011.
Saturn in Libra squares Pluto in Capricorn three times:
1. November 15, 2009 (Saturn 1 Libra/Pluto 1 Capricorn)
2. January 31, 2010 (Saturn Rx 4 Libra/Pluto 4 Capricorn)
3. August 20, 2010 (Saturn 2 Libra/Pluto Rx 2 Capricorn)
After the August 20, 2010 square to Pluto in Capricorn, Saturn gets out in front of Uranus and Pluto degree-wise and will not exactly oppose/square them again from that sign.
The first exact square of Uranus in Aries and Pluto in Capricorn is not until June 24, 2012, but these two bodies will be in energetic square in these cardinal signs, at times only one degree apart, for much longer - for all intents and purposes, for the entire Uranus transit of Aries - May 27, 2010 to March 5, 2019.
This is the force of revolutionary new direction/identity (Uranus in Aries) in tense contact with the transformation of our structural set-ups and power dynamics therein (Pluto in Capricorn). The freedom to be who we are in the unfolding Aquarian paradigm butting up against the transformation of power dynamics within concrete structural set-ups/institutions. Widescale new directions creating clashes. Both these planets represent transpersonal/global forces, so this will be going on on a global scale with countries as the players. But as the personal is transpersonal (inter-related) and vice versa, these changes will affect everyone on a personal level, as well.
You can see how the recent Mars and Venus in Aries squares to Pluto in Capricorn (and Venus in Aries retrograde) are pre-cursors for the themes of those Uranus in Aries/Pluto in Capricorn squares. This is why it has been quite heavy at times. It's very important that we get going in the right direction with a good grasp of these energies and how they interact.
The following dates are only for the most severe of astro-geeks (like me). Super long range forecast...
Uranus-Pluto Square Cycle:
1. June 24, 2012 (Uranus 8 Aries/Pluto Rx 8 Capricorn)
2. September 18, 2012 (Uranus Rx 6 Aries/Pluto (stationing direct) 6 Capricorn)
3. May 20, 2013 (Uranus 11 Aries/Pluto Rx 11 Capricorn)
4. October 31, 2013 (Uranus Rx 9 Aries/Pluto 9 Capricorn)
5. April 21, 2014 (Uranus 13 Aries/Pluto Rx 13 Capricorn)
6. December 15, 2014 (Uranus Rx 12 Aries/Pluto 12 Capricorn)
7. March 16, 2015 (Uranus 15 Aries/Pluto 15 Capricorn)
1. November 4, 2008 (Saturn 18 Virgo/Uranus 18 Pisces)
2. February 5, 2009 (Saturn Rx 20 Virgo/Uranus 20 Pisces)
3. September 15, 2009 (Saturn 24 Virgo/Uranus Rx 24 Pisces)
