Abstract:
Transiting Pluto will square the natal Neptune of those born 1951 through 1954
over the next several years. As many of these people were born with a close
natal 60 degree angle [sextile] of Pluto and Neptune VERY substantial energies
will be potentiated.

This blog is a more detailed Western astrology take on the years ahead.
Pluto squaring
natal Neptune
For the next several years those born in 1952, 1953 and 1954 will be under the inharmonious aspect of transiting Pluto squaring their natal Neptune. Those born in the Chinese Years of the Dragon, Snake and Horse [’52, ’53, ‘54] will be negatively impacted by their respective least-favorable Chinese years occurring: 2018 is Dog Year, inimical for Dragons; 2019 will be Pig Year, inimical for Snakes; and 2020 will be Rat Year, inimical for Horses. Because of the long-term generational transiting sextile [60 degree angle] between Pluto and Neptune from 1950 through 1986, energy is potentiated in nativities born with this sextile, and extraordinary happenings, abilities and aptitudes can be available especially if other points and planets participate in the natal Pluto/Neptune sextile.

Pluto-Neptune
generational aspects
Pluto conjunct Neptune
Pluto sextile Neptune
Planets making aspects to the mid-point of the Pluto/Neptune
sextile, especially oppositions to this mid-point, creating a Yod [Y shaped
configuration] are the most dramatic I have seen. If great gifts of prescience
or healing are conferred by the aspect, compensating liabilities are also
always present because all of us human beings are immersed, ultimately against
our wills, in what we perceive as a duality.
“As long as you do
not die and rise again,
You are a stranger
to the dark earth.”
Goethe as quoted in
The Gods of Change - Pain, Crisis and the Transits of Uranus, Neptune and
Pluto. Sasportas, Arkana [Penguin], 1989
And, not everyone rises again.
“People tend to be afraid of Pluto transits and they have
a right to be, for we are dealing here with the god of death, whose domain is
the dark and shadowy underworld. Transiting Pluto often brings us painfully in
contact with death. In some cases this can mean a literal death─our own or that
of someone close to us─but more usually these transits correspond to
psychological deaths: the death of a part of us, the death of ourselves as we
know ourselves.” The Gods of Change,
Sasportas, pg. 221
This transiting Pluto square natal Neptune aspect for the
1951 through 1955 cohort can force one into a death and rebirth process and the
compensating liabilities can be sufficiently virulent to overshadow the life of
the gifted Pluto sextile Neptune nativity. For example, many of those born with
the potentiating energy of the conjunction of Pluto to Neptune in 1891 and 1892
succumbed to the generational trauma of the slaughterhouse of the First World
War. However gifted they may have been, larger forces, compensating
liabilities, overshadowed these lives.
The thirtieth [30th] and sixtieth [60th]
year in the lives of nativities with a close Pluto/Neptune sextile has been, is
now, or will be, very important because, by degree-per-year direction, Pluto
directs to the mid-point of the Pluto/Neptune sextile at the 30th
year and to a conjunction in the 60th year.
The reason Neptune/Pluto interactions are so important is
because these two outermost planets from the Sun are not amenable to our change
or control─they operate on us unconsciously and, as explained by Jung in a
letter;
“I am strongly convinced that the evil principle prevailing in this world leads the unrecognized spiritual need into perdition, if it is not counter-acted by real religious insight or by the protective wall of human community. An ordinary man, not protected by an action from above and isolated in society, cannot resist the power of evil, which is called very aptly, the Devil.”
“I am strongly convinced that the evil principle prevailing in this world leads the unrecognized spiritual need into perdition, if it is not counter-acted by real religious insight or by the protective wall of human community. An ordinary man, not protected by an action from above and isolated in society, cannot resist the power of evil, which is called very aptly, the Devil.”
Those with Pluto/Neptune aspects in their horoscopes are
much more subject, AGAINST THEIR WILLS, to unconscious forces, and without
sufficient “counter-action” can be lead to peril, such as dying along with
30,000 fellow British soldiers in a one day at the Battle of the Somme in WW1. I
haven’t completed my studies but it appears that all the great spiritual lights
born near the time of the 1891 and 1892 Pluto/Neptune conjunction were not born
with the exact conjunction as the compensating liabilities implied by the gift
of the conjunction may have been too overwhelming. Some of these lights include
Paramahasa Yogananda and Bill Wilson, both born in 1895 when the conjunction
was separating.
Examples
Example 1: Born
early March thru May 1951
When I got to be in my fifties and had done a lot of
‘field research’ on my life, I deduced that many of the really important people
in my life were all born in March
through May of 1951, a Rabbit Year. It took many more years for me to see
that all these people have a Pluto/Neptune sextile in their natal horoscopes
whose mid-point falls on a significant point on my horoscope.
Friend with a Yod:
One of these people has a significant point in their
horoscope creating a Yod aspect with the Pluto/Neptune sextile─the North Node
is directly opposite their Pluto/Neptune mid-point.
Pluto has already squared Neptune 3 times in the past 2
years for this person causing, or in synchrony with, to use a Jungian term,
many health problems. Pluto comes back retrograde to form one last square within 3 minutes of
arc on 30 September 2018 before turning stationary direct at 18 CP 45.
Finally comprehending all this fully a few years ago, I
waited until about a year ago before succinctly telling the friend with the Yod
that if they were able to live through the Year of the Rooster, the opposite of
Rabbit Year, they would become enlightened in 2019. In 2019 Neptune by transit
conjuncts this person’s North Node which participates so significantly in the
PL, NE, NN Yod, which has, to one degree or another, ruled this person’s life. I
did not mention that Enlightenment might include leaving this Earthly realm.
The health problems this person has suffered in the past
few years have caused them to abandon atheism and agnosticism and become a
significant spiritual communicator.
ALL SPIRITUAL ADVANCEMENT ENTAILS
SUFFERING.
“Souls are like athletes that need opponents worthy of
them, if they are to be tried and extended and pushed to the full use of their
powers, and rewarded according to their capacity.” Thomas Merton, The Seven Storey Mountain
Example 2:
Vladimir Putin,
7 October 1952, a Dragon with Pluto and Neptune approximately 1 degree, 30
minutes away from exactly sextile in his natal horoscope will experience 5
exact squares of Pluto to his natal Neptune from March 2018 through the end of
November 2019. No other potentiating happens as Putin’s Pluto/Neptune has no
other natal aspecting planets or points.
Putin’s exact aspects occur 31 March 2018, 14 May 2018,
17 January 2019, 14 August 2019, and 19 November 2019. At a minimum, we can
expect Putin to have an ‘annus
horribilis’ to use Queen Elizabeth’s
term for 1992 in her life. If Putin has a bad year we will all have a bad year,
to some degree.
Example 3:
Caroline Myss: birth
data from Astro.com
In brief, this nativity [forgive my Virgo detachment - I know she’s a person, not a horoscope or ‘nativity’] has not only an exact sextile of Pluto and Neptune but also a close conjunction of Saturn to Neptune which will also be strongly activated by the square of transiting Pluto.
Additionally, Ms. or Dr. Myss has a huge [‘Uge’] 35 Saturn Lilly strength, a 22 Venus, and a 21 Neptune.
Pluto exactly squares Myss’s [see Elements of Style] natal Neptune
by transit: 10 April 2019, 8 May 2019, 22 January 2020, 12 August 2020, and 23
Nov 2020, with 8 May emphasized. Other previous and upcoming squares include the
years 1528, 1773, 2266, and 2512.
Another person born 2 Dec 1952 in the morning, and, therefore,
with a Moon/Neptune trine along with the other Pluto/Neptune/Saturn aspects AND
22 Master Teacher birth number, is Karen Hamaker-Zondag, the Dutch astrologer
and teacher.
Ever the noodge, I sent Ms. Myss a note using the contact
form on her website:
“Sorry for your recent past, current and impending
losses. ….”
I’m actually playing with fire here as the mid-point of
Myss’s Pluto/Neptune sextile exactly conjuncts my Mars. I could end up doing things against my seeming will were some
interaction to come up between us.
Example 4:
Person XXX
Exact birth time
uncertain.
“Even though Scorpios are guided by their genitals, they
are actually directed toward business goals. It is true that the Scorpio has a
criminal mind, but these individuals can turn it to their advantage and do well
in business. You will find that some of the world’s greatest leaders have been
of this sign.” Sylvia Browne, ‘Astrology through
a Psychic’s Eyes’, Hay House Publ., pg. 76. And when the genitals and business
intertwine – it CAN cause problems.
Perhaps the best example of the ‘unconscious forces’
noted above. Maybe we should include the Deep State and the NSA in our definition.
Currently under duress from the stars with: Pluto
opposing his Moon/Uranus conjunction; Pluto by transit having conjuncted his
Capricorn Mars; and Pluto squaring Saturn/Neptune all throughout 2018, Person XXX will experience a much potentialized Pluto/Neptune in
2019 with the months of February, July and December emphasized.
As with my previous predictions regarding Person XXX, most of the transformations
will be of a personal nature. I’m surprised Person XXX has not been more in the headlines.
Example 5:
Scanning the table of Pluto/Neptune interactions above, I note that those born around the 3 Dec 1976 and 25 Sep 1977 exact sextile of Pluto in Libra and Neptune in Sagittarius at almost 14 degrees are experiencing a square of Neptune to their Neptune [versus Pluto squaring a natal Neptune for those born in the early 1950’s]. If other planets participate in this potentiating energy either natally, or by transit, direction or progression, significant life events could occur.

One extremely interesting horoscope I came up with: late
evening 3 Dec 1976, in the Eastern Standard Time zone. So far, I haven’t found
anyone with that birth time and place. This is Carnacian work of deducing or
finding a horoscope then trying to find a person who fits it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnac_the_Magnificent
