First
Maine, then Connecticut, and finally late on Friday, confirming the worst case
outcome many had expected, Illinois entered its third straight fiscal year
without a budget as Republican Governor Bruce Rauner and Democratic lawmakers
failed to agree on how to compromise over the government’s chronic deficits,
pushing it closer toward becoming the first junk-rated U.S. state.
To understand why state after state is becoming bankrupt, we
need to go back to the most important transit in the US national chart also
known as the Sibley. For the past few years, Pluto has been transiting opposite
the US Sibley’s Sun in the 8th of national debt. About this transit,
astrologer Doug Walker wrote in 2013:
Pluto in astrology acts as a force
for creative destruction. This term, creative destruction, was coined by the
Viennese economist, Joseph Schumpeter. Schumpeter described creative
destruction as, a “process of…mutation that incessantly revolutionizes the….structure
from within, incessantly destroying the old one, and incessantly creating a new
one.” The chart of the USA (7/4/1776) is undergoing some major Plutonian
transits. Pluto has opposed first Venus (which brought on a severe financial
crisis in America in 2008/10), then Jupiter for the year, 2010, and also in
2011 and 2012. By 2014 it will move on to the opposition of the US Sun (see
Pluto/Sun page), which is located in the Sibley chart at 13° Cancer 19΄. This
type of opposition from Pluto to the USA chart has never happened before and it
should bring on some severe crises.
Now we come to the opposition of
Pluto to the natal Sun in the US chart.
To review: in a nation’s chart, the
Sun shows its leadership. In the 1066 AD coronation chart of William on
Christmas Day, the Sun represented William, the King of England. On May 10,
1940 the Sun of the same chart represented Winston Churchill, the Prime
Minister. Aug. 8, 1974, Richard Nixon, President of the United States,
resigned. That day transiting Saturn conjuncted the natal US Sun: They were
both at 13 degrees Cancer. 29.54 years later this transit occurred again, and a
beloved retired president died quietly in his sleep. It was still about the
same thing: leadership. He was given a long, dignified funeral.
The Sun is also the heart of a
country, everything it stands for. The Sun is the purpose, the drive, the will
of the people who put the country together. In the USA chart, it is “we the
people”, who under the rule of law, guarantee everyone “life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness”. And that is essentially what has been created for the
last 235 years, and what has made America perhaps the greatest nation in human
history.
Two things can happen with this
opposition.
First, this whole American experiment
will collapse and die. And that can happen with the oppositions and
conjunctions of Pluto. A transiting Pluto conjunct the Soviet Union’s natal Sun
caused the Soviet Union to collapse and die. A transiting Pluto opposition
destroyed the Nazis; Pluto displayed an aspect of nemesis that the Nazi’s never
survived. What will happen to our leaders? What will happen to the elites in
Washington?
They will be tested for flaws in
character. If the flaws are deep, they will fall. Fate will be the judge of any
weakness here. There will be no mercy for bad decisions. Lies can be
disastrous; shortcuts will not work. Expect to see a new type of leadership in
America. In any kind of suddenly apparent disconnection between the American
people and its politicians, and bureaucrats, and administrators, and judges, it
will be the leaders who fall. The new leadership will lead by falling back on
to the original founding core values of America.
It is all going to change probably in
ways most of us can’t even dream of. This change will bring painful events, but
it will cleanse the corruption (much of which we are blind to) out of the body
politic. Welcome to the creative destruction of Pluto.
To use an analogy, Pluto transits are like the “hour hand”
of the cosmic clock. On its own it is active over a fairly extended period.
Currently, Jupiter in transit is square Pluto and acts as the “minute hand” of
the clock. Ebertin interprets Jupiter-Pluto as a financial debacle following an
overextension.
In addition, fast moving transit Mars is opposing Pluto (exact
on July 2) forming a T-square with Jupiter-Pluto. This can be looked upon as
the “second hand” of the clock. Finally on June 30, the First Quarter Moon
phase chart at Washington, DC has the luminaries aligned with Mars-Jupiter-Pluto
T-square straddling the horizon and serves as a trigger for the combination.
