Astrologers everywhere are nodding their head. Uranus in Aries square Pluto – Time Magazine names “The Protester” the person of the year. Uranus: rebellion and radical change, in Aries: initiation and action. Squaring Pluto, power, endings and transformation; in Capricorn, the structures upon which we build our lives such as governments and corporations.
It’s so obvious!
Except to Time Magazine:
No one could have known that when a Tunisian fruit vendor set himself on fire in a public square, it would incite protests that would topple dictators and start a global wave of dissent. In 2011, protesters didn’t just voice their complaints; they changed the world.
And also re-read my article from February of last year about the spread of global protest in which I wrote:
These protests are just the beginning of what will become a firestorm of political resistance over the next year as Uranus, planet of revolution, squares off against Pluto, planet of power and control. They were inspired by the return of Jupiter into Aries and the simultaneously square of Jupiter to Pluto in Capricorn, which mainlined confidence (Jupiter) and courage (Aries) into the souls of individuals who were fed up with the control (Pluto) of autocratic governments (Capricorn).
This is just the beginning of the excitement. Uranus and Pluto have only come within a degree of their exact square which culminates next summer. THEN the fun will really start!
