Great stuff, Just forwarded this on to a friend who read up on this and she took me to eat after I showed her this site. So, appreciate it!!
Alex,
I cannot tell you how much I enjoy your very informative, pithy, well written articles. I always come away from reading one with a treasure trove of knowledge. This current article explains so well the potential for deep change in our current dysfunctional government as well as what that change might be based on similar aspects in the past and the changes that have ensued.
Thank you for helping me stay more in tune with the universe.

Oh my gosh!-“When Pluto subsequently made a retrograde station at 26 Sagittarius conjunct the supermassive Black Hole at the Galactic Center, on 29 March 2006” This was the week I returned to Philadelphia from Greece. My Mars is Conjunct Galactic Center. When I returned, the Fair City had started to dig up chemically laced vacant lot next to my house and it released poisons. The trail of events following, I uncovered toxic hazards in equal parts political corruption and became the most hated woman in the City because I kept telling the truth and uncovering what they wanted covered up. Long story.
My Saturn is 7 Scorpio “When Pluto turned direct at 7 Scorpio on 17 July 1987.” My mother died 3 months earlier and July, 1987, I started therapy with a semi- psychopathic therapist . That ran a five year course of plutonic devastation. I survived that and I’m surviving the Philadelphia story – sort of- it’s not over. I’m getting this Phoenix from the Ashes trick down.
Thanks for a great article!
thanks, all, for your kind comments. i’m pleased and gratified if you find the articles entertaining and useful.
for madeline, the period of pluto’s greatest interaction with the BH at 5 cap begins this spring, and runs eighteen months from then, until the fall of 2011. the direct station pluto makes this september (2010) is at 2 cap, which roughly repeats its retrograde station from the spring of 2009.
This is a very interesting article and well researched.
My progressed ascendant just went to 0 Capricorn and my natal mercury is 2 Capricorn conjunct my moon at 7 capricorn. I need all of my resources to undergo yet another dark passage as transiting pluto moves over this area of my chart.
Thanks again for such a good article.
Best
Frances.
Hi Alex
I learn so much by reading your analysis of the cosmos.
All of these changes have changed my life in very radical ways, and I must say that in doing so I am facing the kind of uncertainty that lends it self to realising potentials of unfanthomable magnitude,crisis and creativity are sides of the same coin.
I have found my voice and in doing so I have realized how interconnected the Universe is.Free at last!!
Alex:
Don’t you mean Pluto stations direct in September 2010 and passes over its current degree in November 2010, not 2011? Do we start counting the 18 months from Sept or Nov?
(We actually do read your stuff – it’s great)
Thanks,
Madeline
Alex,
I am grateful for the comprehensive view of what this upcoming Pluto station rx conjunct a black hole could mean for the U.S. The words “filibuster” and “electoral college” are periodically mentioned in news programs as something to consider eliminating, as well as appointed instead of elected U. S. senators, but rarely heard is an explanation of how this would affect the country’s governing of itself. In a few brief sentences, you have provided a clear picture of how these discussed changes of policy could really manifest.
I always enjoy your articles and find the black hole, quasar manifestations awesome and profound in retrospect. This article gives some tantalizing food for thought regarding the near future, which is even more interesting, to say the least. Thank you for your excellent writing and choice of subjects to discuss.
