See the many posts on this site that refer to the rare, historic, revolutionary Uranus/Pluto square, the opening move you might say, of the Uranus/Pluto conjunctions of the late ’60s. When what has been hidden, becomes visible. When the seed in the zeitgeist, planted in the late ’60s, having taken root in fertile soil, begins to sprout.
Seven exact 90° squares between 2012 and 2015. We begin to experience the third one now, exact on May 20th, at 11° 14 Aries (Uranus)/Capricorn (Pluto).
The individual (Aries) vs. the collective (Capricorn).
Revolutionary Uranus in fiery impulsive Aries: courage, new beginnings; Pluto in earthy, conservative Capricorn, primal power of death to old structures, leading to regeneration.
In sum: appropriate new collective forms evolve to focus new, explosive, highly creative individual energies.
Thanks to philosophers-stone for the pointer.
A flurry of earthquakes continues across the planet over the past 72 hours, showing few signs of abatement. Seismic tension continues to build across the Pacific Plate, the Cocos plate (Central America), and the Nazca plate, near South America. Tectonic plate agitation appears to be increasing, along with volcanic pressures under many of the world’s major volcanoes. -TEP 55th volcano erupts in Alaska: Scientists say small lava flows have been detected on two restless volcanoes in Alaska. The Alaska Volcano Observatory says satellite images Tuesday show the lava partly down a flank of Pavlof Volcano in a low-level eruption 625 miles southwest of Anchorage. Geophysicist Dave Schneider says minor steam and ash emissions are visible from the community of Cold Bay 37 miles away. Pavlof is the second Alaska volcano to erupt this month. Cleveland Volcano, on an uninhabited island in the Aleutian Islands, experienced a low-level eruption in early May. The observatory says analysis of satellite imagery shows a lava flow partly down a flank of the volcano. Ash plumes can be an aviation hazard, but no ash clouds have been detected from Cleveland Volcano in the past week. –Yahoo News [Source]
