There is a chance that a large asteroid could hit Mars on January 30, 2008. That is just four days after Pluto makes its entrance into Capricorn—and the precise day when Mars goes stationary direct while it is less than 3° from the U.S. Mars. According to the Associated Press:A newly discovered hunk of space rock has a 1 in 75 chance of slamming into the Red Planet on Jan. 30, scientists said Thursday."These odds are extremely unusual. We frequently work with really long odds when we track ... threatening asteroids," said Steve Chesley, an astronomer with the Near Earth Object Program at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.The asteroid, known as 2007 WD5, was discovered in late November and is similar in size to an object that hit remote central Siberia in 1908, unleashing energy equivalent to a 15-megaton nuclear bomb and wiping out 60 million trees.Whether or not the asteroid actually hits Mars, its status as front page news is a synchronous harbinger of Pluto's arrival in Capricorn.
Popular TV shows that feature black humor and death: a "blooming" Pluto in Capricorn trend?Pushing Daisies (a phrase meaning “dead”) is a new ABC TV series about a young man, Ned, whose touch has the power to briefly resurrect the dead. There are some complicating factors, such as the fact that there's a one minute time limit on each resurrection. If the person stays alive for more than a minute, one touch from Ned can kill that person. And after a minute, someone else has to die. Although its theme is death, Pushing Daisies has a light-hearted tone and has been on many critics’ top ten lists.Poking fun at death is nothing new, but its mainstream appearance on a finely crafted network TV show just as Pluto is about to go into Capricorn seems significant.
I attended a Neil Young concert at the brand new, gleaming, post-modern, purple neon-accented Nokia Theater, which opened last month in downtown Los Angeles. I’ll post an astrological concert review very soon, but was struck with a couple of Pluto in Capricorn observations about the venue:It’s named after a cell phone company. One huge wall inside the theater lobby displayed different models of Nokia phones. It was like walking into a very large mobile phone store. Corporations are taking over the world. I know this is not exactly breaking news, but I was struck with how in-your-face it’s become.The security was very tight. I’ve been to plenty of concerts, but nothing ever approached the security we experienced at this theater. To enter, everyone had to walk through brand new airport-style metal detectors, then submit to a pat-down, purse search (and did they ever search, emptying out all the contents), jacket search, backpack search…It was like the theater was being run by t
Capricorn is, among other things, the sign of big business. When Pluto goes into Saturn-ruled Capricorn early next year (although due to retrogradation it won’t be in Capricorn to stay until November 27, 2008), big businesses will try to exert ever-more control over our private lives and the boundaries of personal expression.I wrote in a recent blog about how Pluto in Capricorn could “bring a heightened awareness of the fragility of our own privacy—along with government or corporate attempts to misuse private information.”As businesses braid and twine their services ever more tightly into our lives, we are more vulnerable to manipulation and control. Another telling example and precursor to what we can, unfortunately, expect:Verizon and AT&T both inserted a clause into their new service contracts stating that an individual's Internet services could be terminated if a customer badmouths Verizon, AT&T, or one of its “business partners” (which would include Yahoo, Veri
Pluto in Capricorn, just months away, is likely to bring a heightened awareness of the fragility of our own privacy—along with government or corporate attempts to misuse private information. Pluto is the modern ruler of Scorpio, a sign associated with secrecy and privacy--qualities which can be strengths in many Scorpios, who often possess a silent, steadfast depth. But when Pluto transits a whole sign, the negative side of that sign is often made visible in the world, culture, and society. Pluto does not mind probing the darkness, and it can focus in on things which are hidden.Capricorn, on the other hand, is ruled by Saturn and is associated with government and business. The sign of the mountain goat is noted for being able to alertly scan the environment for tactical information. That can be positive or negative, depending on how it is used. A successful business must be able to “read” the outer world and make nimble, strategic adjustments quickly in order to compete and achi
One of the biggest trends we are seeing as Pluto prepares to enter Capricorn next year is an increase in government surveillance, wiretapping, and CCTV monitoring. Closed circuit televisions serve a positive purpose in catching criminals, but the reach of these has become huge. Google maps has been criticized by privacy advocates for posting public street level views which include recognizable individuals doing things they might not want viewed by millions of people online. Google has special vehicles with cameras that take many of these pictures of public spaces. As we have discovered, some U.S. citizen surveillance has been carried out in secret by the government. And a new law, passed by Congress, expands the reach of wiretapping.In the new Simpsons movie, which I went to see, there is a scene showing a government phone surveillance unit--a huge room with row upon row of government workers listening in on phone conversations. We hear little snippets of some of these phone conversat
Maybe it’s a good thing that goats are being genetically modified to produce a battlefield antidote for nerve gas. However, as Pluto is set to enter Capricorn—the sign of the mountain goat—early next year, the conflation of goats and nerve gas is a bit unnerving. This article appeared in the BBC online: “Nerve Gas Antidote Made by Goats.”According to the article,Scientists have genetically modified goats to make a drug in their milk that protects against deadly nerve agents such as sarin and VX....The US Department of Defense is funding the development effort by biotech firm PharmAthene to the tune of $213m (Ł105m). It regards the drug as a promising way to protect its troops against exposure to nerve agents on the battlefield. [The antidote] could also be stockpiled for use in the event of a terrorist attack on a city with chemical weapons.
I mentioned in a recent blog that I felt rock music might be revitalized during Pluto’s transit through Capricorn. Another trend we might see is, conversely, preservation of the arts.In another recent blog, I quoted Isabel Hickey on Capricorn: “Tradition, home, mother, the past (often exemplified through their love of antiques); these are important to the people of Capricorn.”And in my book, Cosmic Trends, I wrote thatCapricorn likes the past. Cultural venues, art museums, and libraries are dedicated to preserving and exhibiting the past. The modern museum has become a commercial as well as a cultural center in cities. During Pluto’s passage through Capricorn, we will see this trend accelerate. Museums will proliferate and, in keeping with the symbolism of Capricorn, they won’t just preserve the past but will make money doing it. Designs for museums like the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain, and concert venues such as Disney Hall in Los Angeles—both designed by Frank Geh
Early next year, Pluto will go into the sign of Capricorn for the first time since the American Revolution. As an apt precursor to this shift into a more Saturnine era, Canadian rock band Arcade Fire’s inspired performance at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles had the enthusiastic, sold-out crowd on their feet from the first notes to the end of the last encore.Wait a minute…Pluto? Inspired?...Capricorn? Rousing an audience? They can do that?Rock music at its best is Plutonian, digging down deep and bringing whatever’s down there up to the surface, transforming it along the way.Here's what British astrologer Paul Wright says about Capricorn in his book, Astrology in Action:...this element [Earth, which includes Capricorn] has a strong connection with rock music. This is one expression of an overcivilised culture seeking the revitalising sustenance of pagan roots, and both Capricorn and Virgo relate to this kind of turnabout.Wright goes on to cite Elvis Presley, a Capricorn Sun, as
Capricorn has a broad range of meanings, one of which has to do with the parent or persons of authority. Capricorn's ruler, Saturn, plus the 10th house are often associated with the individual father. However, the whole issue of assigning a parental gender to planets and luminaries is problematic in modern culture, where shifting gender roles have made such designations outmoded. The Sun may be our Jungian animus, and the Moon our anima, but do they really represent the parental father and mother?Many older astrology texts refer to Saturn, the ruler of Capricorn, as representing the father. Saturn rules boundaries, authority, and rules—all qualities which are traditionally associated with the old-fashioned father. But don’t mothers also set boundaries, lay down rules, and become authority figures in their children’s lives?I grew up in a traditional 1950's suburban home. My father worked and supported the family, while my mother stayed home, raised four children, and became a lo
