January 2008 Pluto enters Capricorn

Well, the Sun will be moving out of an earth sign and into the air of Aquarius today, representing a significant 'shift' in energies. The practicalities of life and the honouring of tradition and boundaries give way to big ideas and change over the coming weeks. Some interesting movements of the heavenly bodies in the month ahead including a retrograde Mercury. (Watch those phones, computers and communications with significant others!). Still, many souls in the astrological networks are tuned into the BIG event coming up in a few days time. For the past 13 years, Pluto, "the great transformer" in astrology, has been penetratively moving through Sagittarius (ideals and spirituality). Just remember all the big eruptive changes experienced in religious organisations over the past decade, from the 'conventional' to the more extreme and 'unconventional') -----------and even the Da Vinci Code (book) moved (slowly) to "bestseller" status!!! So, was your search for your truth realised during Pluto's transit through Sagittarius? On 25th January Pluto enters the earth sign, Capricorn, for the first time in 230 years! Capricorn - I'm thinking of convention, structures, authority, discipline and authorities, tradition, Saturn, self employment and 'big' organisations --- and I think of Afghanistan, Albania, India, Orkney and Shetland. Pluto's task is to bring in the changes so that transformations come about. Its going to be the start of something interesting!
