The cardinal ingresses of the Sun have a traditional reputation as  important mundane events. Shown here is the chart for the Sun’s ingress into Cancer drawn for Washington,DC. Notice that Venus forms a sharp sesqisquare aspect with Pluto on the descendant of the ingress chart making it significant for the place. The ancient Greek story [2] of the abduction of Persephone by Hades (Pluto) is highlighted since it is connected to Venus-Pluto aspects. The maiden (Persephone) is taken away from her distraught mother (Demeter) by Pluto, the god of the underworld. This bears out the news story about the abduction of children and their sexual abuse.

Uranus in Aries is a potent symbol for individual freedom. The Arian expression of Uranus  can sometimes degenerate into actions based on personal desire (“I want this, and I don’t care if it hurts others”). In Capricorn, Pluto symbolizes the  overwhelming power of large institutions, including government and government agencies which can stop the misuse of individual freedom.
