Forgot to post about Pluto and it has been playing a strong hand in our world’s history. Here it is:
When it comes to Pluto, though, I was curious to see what was going on in certain times in our “World’s History.”
Interesting how when Pluto was in Leo, we had the rise of the dictator, autocratic governments, fascism. It was also in the heart of the Hollywood “Golden Age.” Pluto is debilitated in Leo.
The American Revolution happened in Capricorn (over money/taxes and they wanted to govern themselves and keep their money).
But the French Revolution began while Pluto was in Aquarius - and while at first glance, the revolutions appear to have some things in common - the FR had to do with overthrowing a selfish government (Aquarius / Leo axis - Pluto is exalted in Aqua). It had to do with people struggling and starving, while King Louie and Marie Antoinette were eating cake and having no clue or concern for the world around them. Simply benefiting from the labor of everyone else while they sit back and rich.
It’s also why it was so gruesome, and so much bloodshed because even though Aquarius is known for its humanitarian qualities - it’s still Plutonic. It still has the elements of chaos, and the potential for corruption is there too. Even when you start off doing the right thing, it can become bad quickly (Robespierre).
I looked back a bit further, Pluto was in retrograding in Aries when the American “settlers” came to colonize the eastern seaboard. Interesting.
Interesting how the outlook for they viewed it as “their” land, even though they didn’t discover it. Interesting how entitled they were and how they mentality shapes and colors an “average American” tends to have. A “me first” mindset. Especially you know who kind of people. Also how this is an attractive place for immigrants. Pluto in Aries - you can come here and be your own person, do your own thing, follow your dream, lead your own life… Also why America is a “younger” country, but positions itself as a leader. How hot headed it is. How violence / force / intimidation / war is used to assert its power.
Going back even further when the Portuguese started this “Age of Exploration” s**t. Pluto was in Gemini. This birthed colonialism. Gemini is curious, it likes to learn. Gemini is also the marker for twins, or multiples in pregnancy - hence why these countries have decided to spread their oats and colonize / take over other places. Found s**t that been existing for years, but think they discovered it. Found spices they didn’t know how to use. Resources they didn’t know the value of. Emulated the people around them, but didn’t know historical context or significance. (Hence when kids first start to learn language or even just how to live in their bodies, they mimic. There is no true understanding why the things they’re mimicking are being done / said. They’re just regurgitating what’s been said and heard around them.
Pluto in Cancer / Leo: They have behaved like parents… forced a lifestyle and indoctrination upon people. Exploited the skills, talents, and uses of the children. Beaten or punished the child when they misbehaved or chose to rebel. Renamed places. Rewrote history to benefit them. Showed off and showcased things on display. Deified themselves. And thought they were better than because of their lineage/status.
