🔍 Patterns Across Time
Each Pluto-in-Aquarius era in England has sparked:

Rebellion against entrenched systems

Emergence of new ideologies

Technological or structural innovation

Redistribution of power—political, religious, or economic

It’s like England gets a cosmic nudge to reinvent itself every time Pluto hits Aquarius. And while the expressions differ—monarchs, parliaments, revolutions, or algorithms—the underlying theme is always radical change for the collective.

Would you like a deeper dive into how this current transit might reshape British institutions or culture?

------------------------------

any signs in England itself from 1282 to 1308
Absolutely—England between 1282 and 1308 was far from quiet. While the spotlight often falls on Edward I’s campaigns in Wales and Scotland, there were notable signs of internal tension, legal reform, and social unrest within England itself. Here's a breakdown of key developments:

⚖️ Legal and Institutional Reforms
1285 – Statute of Westminster II: This defined inheritance laws and introduced de donis conditionalibus, which restricted the alienation of entailed estates—an attempt to stabilize noble landholding.

1285 – Statute of Winchester: A major overhaul of law enforcement. It formalized the hue and cry, required towns to maintain arms for defense, and laid groundwork for community policing.

These reforms suggest growing concern over crime, disorder, and the need for centralized control.

🌊 Natural Disasters and Economic Disruption
1286 & 1287 – Storm surges and floods devastated coastal towns like Dunwich, Old Winchelsea, and New Romney. These events reshaped trade routes, destroyed infrastructure, and led to the founding of New Winchelsea on higher ground.

Such upheavals often strain local economies and can fuel discontent, especially when recovery is slow or uneven.

🕵️‍♂️ Political Intrigue and Violence
1283 – Parliament at Shrewsbury Abbey included commoners for the first time, marking a shift toward broader political representation.

1283 – Murder at Exeter Cathedral: A conspiracy involving the Dean and the Mayor led to the killing of an official—hinting at corruption and factionalism even within religious institutions.

🏛️ Cultural and Educational Expansion
Peterhouse College, Cambridge was founded in 1284, and University College, Oxford received statutes in 1280.

These developments reflect a growing intellectual class, which often precedes ideological shifts and challenges to traditional authority.

🧩 The Bigger Picture
While there wasn’t a full-scale rebellion like in Wales or Scotland, England itself was undergoing:

Legal centralization

Economic shocks

Political experimentation

Localized violence and corruption

These are classic Pluto-in-Aquarius themes: transformation of institutions, decentralization of power, and the stirrings of collective consciousness.

Would you like to explore how these changes laid the groundwork for later uprisings like the Peasants’ Revolt or the rise of parliamentary power?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

how did it effect the peasant revolt and what planetary cycles were predominant at the time
The Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 in England was a seismic moment of social upheaval—and the astrological backdrop was just as dramatic. Let’s explore how Pluto’s earlier transit through Aquarius (1286–1308) laid the groundwork, and what planetary cycles were active during the actual revolt.

🔮 Pluto in Aquarius: The Long Shadow
Although Pluto had left Aquarius decades earlier, its transformative fingerprints were still visible:

Legal centralization, land reforms, and early parliamentary structures introduced during Pluto’s Aquarius transit (1286–1308) began to empower collective consciousness.

These reforms planted seeds of resistance to feudal control, which matured over the next century.

By 1381, the Statute of Labourers (1351)—a reactionary law trying to freeze wages after the Black Death—was seen as oppressive, especially by laborers who had begun to taste autonomy.

Pluto’s Aquarian legacy? A slow-burning revolution in how ordinary people saw their rights, labor, and place in society.

🌌 Planetary Cycles Active in 1381
Here’s what was stirring the cosmic pot during the revolt:

1. Uranus in Leo
Uranus, planet of rebellion, was in Leo, opposite Aquarius.

This polarity reflects tension between individual expression (Leo) and collective power (Aquarius).

The revolt itself was led by charismatic figures like Wat Tyler and John Ball, who challenged centralized authority with radical ideas—classic Uranus-in-Leo behavior.

2. Neptune in Aries
Neptune was in Aries, fueling idealism, martyrdom, and spiritual rebellion.

John Ball’s sermons—“When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman?”—embodied Neptunian mysticism and Aries defiance.

Neptune in Aries can inspire visionary uprisings, often with religious or moral undertones.

3. Saturn in Cancer
Saturn, the planet of structure and control, was in Cancer, sign of homeland and emotional security.

This placement often triggers conflicts over domestic stability, land rights, and traditional roles.

The revolt was deeply rooted in economic injustice, taxation, and the erosion of peasant security.

🧠 Astrological Summary
The Peasants’ Revolt was catalyzed by:

Pluto’s earlier Aquarian reforms, which destabilized feudal norms.

Uranus in Leo, sparking charismatic rebellion.

Neptune in Aries, fueling spiritual and ideological fervor.

Saturn in Cancer, highlighting the tension between authority and domestic survival.

It wasn’t just a political uprising—it was a cosmic echo of deeper generational shifts in power, identity, and collective will.

What else does Aquarius highlight besides tech?
Saturn leaves the door open for Pluto as it exits Aquarius in March 2023. Fortunately, we’ve built a relationship with Saturn in Aquarius for the past 3 years, setting some of the stage for Pluto’s demolition project. Saturn made us more cautious of the air we breathe in enclosed spaces (fixed air is right) – might Pluto in Aquarius introduce new forms of control or revelatory research?

As I emphasized on the Libra episode of The Astrology Podcast, the air signs have to do with technology and invention: Gemini is the pen, the printing press and language both written and spoken – a distinguishing feature of culture and civilization is dialect and language. Libra, the scale, represents commerce and social mores of civilization. Aquarius, the water-bearer, transports water from the river to the remote village using the technology of the urn. Inherent in the symbolism of Aquarius is a forward-thinking outsider. Adam Elenbaas recently explained the archetype of Saturn so superbly in his Pluto in Aquarius video, Previewing Pluto into Aquarius - Part II: Who is the Water Bearer? Aquarius, while associated with groups, always has one foot in the social circle and one foot on the outside, never fully immersing themselves anywhere. The wallflower holds a key vantage point, objectively analyzing the group dynamics and infrastructural flow. Revolutionary ideas which influence social organization will be on the rise.

This is why Aquarius is so sure of themselves. They see the reality of the matter, and they don’t care how convenient it is for anyone (or even for themselves). The fixed air sign is discerning, melancholic and contemplative yet decisive. We may see a resurgence of stoicism, skepticism and more of a return to scientific thinking.

Due to Aquarius’ views on humanity as a whole, Aquarius has the reputation for being “humanitarian.” While Aquarius is concerned with social structure and possesses an idea of how society should be collectively organized for the “better,” the moral compass of each Aquarian varies. Remember that Aquarius is a detached sign; Pluto in Aquarius doesn’t care about your feelings. We may see the world become more robotic. Literally tho. Tech will only continue to infiltrate our lives. While appearing to make us more connected, however, it dismantles our ability to be present and hold space for the things that make us inherently human.


AI Generated Image of Pluto in Aquarius

Pluto in Aquarius will challenge our ideas of what is even possible, technologically speaking. I often think of Prometheus, the giver of fire (technology) to human beings. Prometheus paid the price. With the conveniences of technology, it’s as if there are always side-effects to consider. Also resonant of Frankenstein, Elon Musk’s Neuralink, a chip which implants within the human brain as a “neural interface computer,” is set to begin its first set of clinical trials by June 2023. This sounds dangerous on multiple levels. Regardless, Pluto in Aquarius is knocking.

As Aquarius is the sign opposite of Leo, where the archetypal Sun king reigns, we may see some interesting themes crop up around leadership. Aquarius is the anti-hero or the anti-king. Aquarius is the shadow-advisor quietly pulling the strings from behind the scenes. Aquarius does not desire the spotlight, but they don’t mind being in control.

Recall that we are in an age of Air – an element corresponding with an emphasis on technology, education, social connection, the movement of people and yes, plagues and pandemics. Jupiter and Saturn will now conjoin in Air signs for the next 200 years and following Pluto’s Aquarius ingress will be Uranus’ Gemini ingress. Uranus spends 7 years in Gemini, and shortly after it leaves, Saturn enters Gemini.

Indeed, there is a TON of air on the menu. What does this mean for us technologically, socially, and even biologically? Pluto in Aquarius will take its time stealthily revealing these answers to us over the next 21 years.

Pluto in Aquarius: Part II - A Historical Evaluation of prior Pluto in Aquarius Eras.

A Pink Floyd Mural - “We Don’t Need No Thought Control”

In Part I of our Pluto in Aquarius series, we set the scene for this incoming 21-year transit and how its likely to show up for us here in the present day. Mostly, we speculated on Pluto in Aquarius’ influence on technology and the role Big Tech will continue to play in our culture. We highlighted some key Aquarian and Plutonian archetypes and reviewed a handful of previous Pluto eras by sign to frame how Pluto in Aquarius may influence the collective strata in the modern age.

Read Pluto in Aquarius: Part I here to catch up!





In Pluto in Aquarius: Part II, we will review previous Pluto in Aquarius sojourns, thus highlighting additional themes we might like to consider for our present journey into this transit.

Let’s get into it!


1777- 1798
Pluto’s most recent visit to Aquarius occurred during an era of revolution among several countries around the world. While the Declaration of Independence was born in the late degrees of Pluto in Capricorn, it’s important to note that the US colonists continued to war with the British through the early years of Pluto’s journey into Aquarius. While we’d prefer our Pluto return to be wrapping up, I’d speculate that it will continue until Pluto reaches 9° Aquarius – Pluto’s position when the Revolutionary War was declared over via the Treaty of Paris.


Reign of Terror

The French Revolution began as a Women's March demanding lower prices of bread (to which Marie Antoinette said “then let them eat cake,” not realizing that you also need flour to bake a cake); this spiraled the movement into class warfare. The French revolution is regarded as a movement whose ideals of equanimity ran away with them – a textbook example of the oppressed becoming the oppressor. It wasn’t enough to level the playing field; heads were going to roll. The shadow side of humanitarian Aquarius is the authoritarian masking its agenda as the greater good. What is deemed humanistic to one grouping may very well be oppressive to another.

The 1780’s and 1790’s are considered a bridge between the Age of Enlightenment (the flourishing of social sciences, individual rights and humanistic morality) and the Industrial Revolution – the flourishing of machinery. On one side of the coin, machines liberated the individual from a more grueling labor; on the other, machinery brought more of a focus on efficiency versus the value of technical skill, laying the foundation for capitalism and new forms of exploitation.

Democracy was the hot, up-and-coming political ideology of this era – a true Aquarian ideal which considers the aims and desires of the group. Haiti, Australia and the Netherlands also claimed their Independence during this period. Liberalism and Partisanship (loyalty to a political party) began to take root for the first time, while abolition movements arose in the United States and Europe. Pluto in Aquarius fixates upon the question of what it means to be humane.

Technologically, scientific breakthroughs abound. The composition of water is first understood, new elements are discovered – and yes, planets. The discovery of Uranus was earth-shattering for both astronomers and astrologers – and certainly for those who had no previous knowledge of planets at all. Imagine the buzz on the street! “Science and technology, ooh!” More inventions such as cast iron, hot-air balloons and steamboats innovated architecture and travel. The small-pox vaccine brought medical breakthroughs while the cotton gin and lithograph innovated labor. The metric system was formalized as a global default measurement system – “fixed-air” indeed!



1532 – 1553
Roughly 500 years ago, Pluto again visited the sign of Aquarius – a sign concerned with societal infrastructure and social ideologies. King Henry breaks from the Roman Catholic church, radically dismantling England’s devotion to a particular doctrine. King Henry facilitates a Protestant reform, establishing the Church of England where his ideologies reign and the heads of traitors roll. Indeed, this encapsulates the tyrannical, uncompromising thread of Aquarian thought control. Note that this is also England’s second Pluto return!

As I mentioned in Pluto Part I, reflexives defense to the new Pluto movement are common. As Protestantism gains popularity, Catholicism resurges within the Reformation – which sought to rebrand Catholicism in a way that was more appealing to people, while also experiencing its own reprising of new Orders, including the Jesuit Order (Ignacio Loyola, a famous devotee amongst them). During this period, Sikhism is also established by Guru Nanak in the Punjab region. We often think of religion as belonging to Pisces, but the organization of peoples around a shared grouping of values or mission statement can be distinctively Aquarian. It’s no wonder the line between cults (Aquarius) and spirituality (Pisces) is often a porous one.


An orignal copy of Copernicus’ “On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres”

In terms of Aquarian technology during this period, we see several “firsts” in printing – mostly of various religious texts in various languages. The Scientific Revolution begins in 1543 with Copernicus’ publishing of “On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres,” which formally pitched the heliocentric model in a cultishly geocentric Europe. True to the outsider archetype of Aquarius, Copernicus dared to challenge the dominating thought. While he wasn’t formally banned by the Vatican until 1616, the birth of the book and its tectonic social ripple are born of Pluto in Aquarius.

We think of Aquarius as humanitarian – but maybe it’s more accurate to say that Aquarius possesses a spectrum of rigid viewpoints about what that means. This period features the Spanish conquest and the transatlantic slave trade, spurring conversations amongst the Europeans about the inherent rights of indigenous peoples. Oppressive conversion of language and religion begins in some regions, while other groups are able to retain autonomy. This seems to parallel the 1780’s when the enslavement of African and Caribbean peoples is banned as a practice in some parts of Europe and the American colonies. Pluto in Aquarius here then leads to the erasure of culture and the oppression of peoples in the name of thought control.



1041 – 1063
The coolest thing that stands out to me about this period: Around July 4th, 1054, a supernova is observed and recorded by several different cultures all around the world. For 23 days, it remained bright enough to be visible in the daylight. This supernova is presently known as the Crab Nebula. What’s so Aquarian? This event eventually helps historians sync the various calendars of the different cultures on all continents, bringing a sort of unification of time-recording systems.


Crab Nebula

The Byzantines reconquer the fortress city of Edessa (modern Turkey), returning it to Christian hands after 400 years of Islamic rule. What’s interesting about this is that we see a mingling of religious iconography during this time. Christian symbols overlay Muslim architecture. We also see The Great Schism – a splitting in ideology which produced the two largest Christian denominations: Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodox. Us versus them – a classic Aquarian aim to define a social order.

As for technology, movable type printing is invented in China; also during this time, a military treatise from the Song Dynasty is complied, becoming the first book in history to include formulas for gunpowder and bombs as well as how to build a double-piston pump flamethrower and magnetic compass.



795 – 819

A 13c painting recalling the Abbasid “House of Wisdom” era by Maqamat of Al-Hariri

As an astrologer, this period is naturally my favorite Pluto in Aquarius era. Belonging to the Islamic Golden Age and the intellectual and cultural abundance created by the Abbasid Empire, this era boasted values such as “The ink of a scholar is more holy than the blood of a martyr." While spirituality indeed plays a role in this period, it’s the Aquarian preservation of knowledge which collectively rests upon a pedestal. As Aquarius is the archetypal outsider, it’s interesting to note that foreigners from all over the world were welcomed into the walled city of Baghdad, so long as they brought books or intellectual talent.

Baghdad was essentially a capital of science, astronomy, mathematics, philosophy, medicine, and education –where both Muslim and foreign scholars aimed to accumulate the textual wisdom of the world and translate them into Arabic and Persian. Many classic works of antiquity that would otherwise have been lost were thus preserved – including many of the astrological treatises and texts we treasure today.

Mathematic systems such as the Arabic numerals many of us use today emerged from this period, including the introduction of the number “0,” algebra, and perhaps most interestingly, the word algorithm. As we presently head into a new Pluto in Aquarius era, “the algorithm” is largely considered akin to a tech-God entity and will play a highly distinctive role in this period.





305 – 330
One of the other reasons we observe a strong thread of Christianity throughout these Pluto in Aquarius periods may also have to do with the prominence of Constantine the Great during this period. He rules as Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire (306-337) for the entire stretch of Pluto’s Aquarius sojourn. During his reign, he formally establishes and ensures the spread of Christianity throughout the Roman Empire, which was largely polytheistic at the time. In fixed air fashion, Constantine wanted to make sure everyone was on the same page. He frequently held councils of theologians to iron out the kinks in Christian doctrine, as well as commission new copies of Bibles (copied by hand at that time). He additionally financed the construction of churches all throughout the Holy Roman Empire.


Eerie scupture of Constantine the Great, the first Christian Emporer of Rome

Constantine also supports this shift from a largely polytheistic to monotheistic worldview by rebranding Pagan celebrations into Christian rites. The historically notable Council of Nicea, is held in 325 AD, which orders the celebration of Easter and establishes significant doctrines. So if you ever wondered why Easter is officially scheduled on the first Sunday after the first Full Moon after the vernal equinox, now you know why.

What is not as well documented is the Plutonian counter-resistance to the Aquarian thought-control. However, there is ample mention in the Old Testament around the persecution of Goddess worshiping peoples and the destruction of their idols and temples of devotion.



Common Threads:
Throughout these periods, we see a definite emphasis on Aquarian “fixed-air” ideology. Whether its an intellectual movement, a societal movement or a divisive disagreement on how to interpret the Bible – we see how an ideology can have a sweeping, dominating effect on the way a society organizes. We can identify themes of loyalty to a specific viewpoint; look no further than democracy, partisanship, humanitarian causes and the value or preserving knowledge. We also see a dedication to scientific advancement either flourishing or budding during these periods. With Pluto, we must also acknowledge the authoritarian themes of thought-control and the deliberate shaping of belief or worldview. It’s both interesting and scary to consider how technology (and the algorithm) may very well embody the tyrannical Pluto in Aquarius thought-controlling entity.

My hope is that we can borrow an important thread from the Abbasid period: This Pluto in Aquarius era highlights the potential of the human mind as a source of empowerment, agency and humanitarian endeavors which continue to benefit humanity to the present day. As we move into a time where AI continues to replace and amaze us, may we remember the potency of our own minds and collectively return to value accessible educational opportunities for all.

This is amazing! Thank you so much

love this!!! I have been feeling the energy shift since finding human design - the institutions that no one is happy with but people have decided are impossible to change WILL change. Think banking, education, hospitals - wasted tax dollars and 2 party politic walls will come down. I feel a shift inward, a return to the self. In helping each other understand ourselves, we will change the world, the more we choose to believe God/the universe is within us, and the less we focus on the tiny differences across religion (something we invented lol), the more we humanity and people connecting with people in real ways. I sincerely believe that the businesses designed by those who put humanity first will be most successful. I am personally tired of the blind following and low vibrations - we invented the rules. they don't work for us anymore, so let's come together and change them. I feel like the left/democrats of today have been extremely oppressive - tech (perhaps) had accelerated group think. It's socially acceptable to discuss politics if you hate Trump, it was not acceptable to support him. The world knows what this group is AGAINST - the "isms" (ironically perpetuating the divisiveness they claim to hate lol), time to put energy into things we are FOR. I hope we innovate in a way that brings people together ....Pluto will dip back in Capricorn this October to tie up the loose ends - so this election will be extremely interesting. Will the oppressors succeed? or will individual freedom and love for the universe shine through.... choosing to trust the right decision will unfold! no matter what I think that is today



No mention of Charlemagne reign of terror upon the Pagan Saxons in 785 at Verden? 4500 people killed for worshiping as they saw right in their hearts.

It sounds like maybe you listened to Chris Brennan and Nick Dagan Best's Pluto in Aquarius episode? What profoundly enlightening and thorough research they did on Pluto in Aquarius. They covered this period and several others which I have not done here.
The 16th degree of Aquarius is symbolized by "A big businessman at his desk". This symbol represents the ability to organize large-scale enterprises and use power and influence effectively for constructive purposes, highlighting the need for effective organization, wise leadership, and the potential to bring together large groups of people to achieve common goals.


In the astrological event chart for Charlie Kirk's assassination on September 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah (exact time reported around 2:35 PM MDT during a Turning Point USA speaking event, based on visual timelines from news sources), the Ascendant is in Scorpio at approximately 21 degrees—aligning closely with the position of asteroid Poseidon on that date.Poseidon, in Uranian and asteroid astrology, embodies enlightenment, spiritual illumination, universal wisdom, and the piercing clarity of truth that cuts through illusion or dogma. Conjunct the Ascendant (the "rising" point representing the event's outward face, immediate impact, and how it enters public consciousness), it suggests the assassination isn't just a shocking political murder but a profound spiritual catalyst. Kirk, as a vocal Christian conservative and Turning Point USA founder, was already a figurehead for faith-based activism; his death under this configuration amplifies themes of martyrdom and divine revelation, "illuminating" (Poseidon's core archetype) the resurgence of organized religious fervour among his supporters. This mirrors historical assassination charts (e.g., MLK or Gandhi, where spiritual asteroids highlight sacrificial legacies), positioning the event as a flashpoint for collective awakening—potentially fueling a broader "enlightenment" backlash against secular or progressive forces, as seen in immediate post-event reactions tying it to Christian revival. It's less about the act of violence itself and more about the transcendent light it casts on enduring truths of faith and resistance.

-------------------------------

Aquarius 16° (Mem Chet Yud: "Casting Yourself in a Favorable Light") invokes Angel Mehiel for vivification—enlivening the spirit amid chaos. Core theme: Acute emotional sensitivity paired with the power to transcend negativity, holding steady in turmoil and inspiring others via a higher, visionary perspective on existence.Omega Symbol: Towering coastal cliffs symbolize rising above emotional "seas" for manifesting clarity and experimental breakthroughs.
Degree Angel Seheiah: Fosters soul connections, longevity, and liberation from toxic vibes.
Chandra Symbol: Grinding gems into medicine reflects slow, thorough assimilation of pure spiritual truth, repeating lessons until perfect self-universe harmony is achieved.
Supporting Symbols: Historian preserving past essence (Pleiadian); golden causeway bridging divides (Azoth); seeded by enlightened rituals (Libra 11°); fulfilled in prophetic insight and dual births of communication (Cancer 27°).

Overall: A quest for enlightened stability—grind inner light into healing wisdom, elevate to heal collectively.

16 Scorpio

Scorpio:16 A scientist using gravity waves to communicate with other universes. (Omega symbol) Manifesting/Experimental

(Degree Angel: ALADIAH (a-LA-dee-YAH) Looks Can Kill: Protection from the Evil Eye, Divine Grace)

This degree can form connections with other levels and realms of existence, and can create changes that are surprising, unlikely, or seemingly impossible. There is always a way to go beyond any limits, and the means to do so are close at hand. A tremendous resourcefulness is found here, for this degree is a gateway to the unexpected.

The Chandra symbol for this degree is “Charon ferries the dead across the river Styx.” The land of the dead across the river Styx is as radically different a place from the realm we live in as the other universes with which the scientist communicates. The question is, how to connect. If you're ready, and the time is right, connection is easy. But fear, and disbelief in the possibility of connecting are what often keep us from connecting. And so this degree is an ambassador who can help others to feel safe and secure as these transitions are made. It senses the existence of these other places, maybe senses that it has been to them before. It intuitively knows there are realms beyond death, and that no limits are absolute. How very uplifting and consoling this is. And often this degree carries out this function as ambassador without even being aware it is what he or she is doing.

Pleiadian Symbol: The volcano goddess laughing.

Azoth Symbol: In wind and rain a funerary tumulus is seen on the steppes.

Seed degree: Libra 8. A rare type of honey imbued with magical healing powers. (Omega Symbol). Love is the universal healing agent, and its effects open us up to new and ever-before-realized possibilities.

A vast junkyard. (Chandra Symbol). To clear away all the detritus and unnecessary elements from our relating allows us to enter into completely new and unexpected areas of connecting.

Fulfillment degree: Capricorn 19. In the night, someone peering into a dark window. (Omega Symbol). Reaching beyond the known into the unknown puts us in touch with uncertainties, but the also possibility of making intimate connection with beings or information which may be come our allies.

A half-eaten piece of bread. (Chandra Symbol). When we leave behind old realms to encounter new ones, we develop a heightened sense of what we need to nurture and sustain ourselves.

Oracle

In other worlds they heard his playing with gravity, which came to them as a kind of falling which called out to them like a voice echoing through a dark cave. They received his pattern of waves and quickly understood his code. He wished to speak with them, to know if they really existed. Yes, they replied, we are here, we hear you, and we know you think we are far away, but we say to you, we are here, inside you, one of countless universes that are born every moment out of even the slightest impulse of your imagination, a branch of that infinite tree whose roots and branches are one, and that grows simultaneously in every direction at once, not only the directions of which you can conceive, but infinite others beyond your conception. How may we help you?

Charles Kirk shot - Poseidon conj AS

----------------------------------------------



Breakdown of the key symbols
The Scientist communicating with other universes (Omega Symbol)

Connecting with other realities: This powerful image speaks to the potential for breakthrough and communication across vast divides. The scientist, representing the rational and logical mind, is using the seemingly paradoxical method of gravity waves to connect, suggesting that profound knowledge can be accessed in unusual, experimental ways.

Manifesting the impossible: The phrase "Manifesting/Experimental" highlights this degree's capacity for bringing unlikely or seemingly impossible things into being. It suggests that if you can conceive of it, you can potentially manifest it, especially by exploring new, unconventional methods.

Charon ferries the dead across the river Styx (Chandra Symbol)
Navigating the unknown: Charon is the boatman of the underworld in Greek mythology, and his task is to ferry the souls of the dead to their final resting place. This symbolizes the ability of this degree to act as an ambassador or guide through difficult, frightening, and radical transitions, like moving from life to death.
Overcoming fear of change: The symbol suggests that the greatest obstacle to transformation is FEAR and disbelief. This degree's energy can help overcome this, intuitively sensing that other realms exist and that limitations are not absolute. It offers courage to face transitions and CHANGE.

Degree Angel: Aladiah
Divine grace in transformation: Aladiah is a degree angel associated with divine grace and protection. This suggests that the difficult transitions and deep transformations of this degree are not undertaken alone but are supported by a higher, compassionate force. This provides a sense of safety even when navigating challenging spiritual territory.
How the other symbols connect
Pleiadian Symbol: The volcano goddess laughing. This image symbolizes the powerful, raw, and sometimes disruptive energy of creation and change. Like a volcano, the energy can be explosive and transformative, but the "laughing" goddess suggests an acceptance and even joy in this powerful, life-altering process.
Azoth Symbol: In wind and rain a funerary tumulus is seen on the steppes. The tumulus, or burial mound, represents a resting place for the ancestors. It signifies a profound connection to the past and a deep honoring of what has come before. The wind and rain suggest that despite the passage of time, these roots remain present and potent, grounding the individual during periods of major change.
Seed and Fulfillment Degrees:
Seed degree (Libra 8): The magical honey represents love as a healing agent that opens us to new possibilities. This "seeds" the Scorpio 16 experience by showing that the journey into the unknown is driven by a desire for healing and profound connection. The "vast junkyard" suggests clearing away old emotional debris is necessary to prepare for this new connection.
Fulfillment degree (Capricorn 19): Peering into a dark window represents facing uncertainties and the possibility of intimate connection with what is hidden. The "half-eaten piece of bread" symbolizes developing a heightened sense of what truly sustains and nurtures you as you navigate these new realms.

The Oracle's message
The oracle weaves these themes together into a story. The scientist's gravity waves are a metaphor for the individual's deepest impulses and imagination. Other universes hear this "playing" and respond, revealing that they are not far away but "inside you". This emphasizes that true change and cosmic connection begin internally, and the universe responds to the intentions and desires of the individual soul. The "infinite tree" that grows in every direction represents the boundless potential and interconnectedness of all things.

=========================================================

bovee


Scorpio 16° ("A girl's face breaking into a smile") embodies contagious cheer as a transformative force in collective energy—happiness radiates to uplift shared moods, while grumpiness taints them. Core theme: A simple, innocent smile pierces through Scorpio's intense seriousness, moodiness, or "dark funk," revealing humor in overly profound situations and fostering emotional lightness.

Dynamic Influence: Like emojis (:>)) or ironic "LOL"s, it highlights how subtle expressions bend perceptions—concave (absorbing negativity) to convex (projecting joy)—preventing misreads and sparking self-aware relief (e.g., grumpiness about LOL becomes funny, eliciting a genuine smile).

Fixed Sign Motif (16°): Recurring theme of subtle influence via curved/disc-like forms, evoking perspective shifts: Leo's post-storm sunshine (renewal), Aquarius's executive focus (structured optimism), Taurus's futile mystic revelation (humor in earnestness).
Practical Wisdom: Embrace cheerfulness to "color the air" positively; it's Scorpio's tool for alchemical levity amid depth, turning snits into smiles and isolation into connection.

---------------------


Scorpio 16° ("A girl's face breaking into a smile") evokes infectious joy as a bridge through emotional intensity, choosing happiness to draw connections and lighten collective moods.Sabian Symbol (Lynda Hill's Interpretation): This symbol highlights the power (or need) to "put on a happy face," radiating warmth to break the ice and invite closeness—even when life's depths make smiling challenging. It's an act of inner choice: expressing joy to shift atmospheres, as true smiles are contagious, fostering eye contact and relational openness. Keywords: Drawing others, willingness to relate, things that make one happy, breaking the ice, smiling or frowning, facial expressions, facial feedback, eye contact, dental hygiene.

Negatives/Shadow (Hill): False happiness to satisfy others' needs, lack of sincerity, breaking up (relationships or facades), rigidity of responses, grumpy attitudes, refusal to communicate, poker faces, frowns—potentially masking Scorpio's deeper vulnerabilities with insincere cheer.

Degree Theory (Nikola Stojanović): 16° carries Cancer (watery, nurturing) energy—emphasizing emotional intelligence, family bonds, patriotism, and protective instincts, with a focus on building stable legacies through heartfelt expression.

At "level 2" of Cancer degrees, it suggests early emotional awareness, closeness to select family members, and a clear vision of ideal home life, often appreciating one's roots more after witnessing others' dysfunctions; slightly more outgoing than lower Cancer degrees, with outgoing vibes emerging from comfort zones.Negatives: Imperfect family dynamics pushing premature emotional exposure, over-sensitivity leading to withdrawal, clinginess to "shell" of familiarity, or unbalanced patriotism turning insular—challenges in fully emerging from relational shells without feeling exposed.
Astrological Interpretation of Solar and Lunar EclipsesIn astrology, eclipses are potent celestial events that amplify lunar cycles, acting as catalysts for change. They occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth align, with the North and South Nodes (points of fate and karma) involved, making them tied to destiny and accelerated growth.


The primary distinction lies in their timing, energy, and thematic focus: solar eclipses align with New Moons (initiations), while lunar eclipses align with Full Moons (culminations).

Solar Eclipses: Meanings and InterpretationsCore Energy: Represent new beginnings, fresh starts, and opportunities, often with a sense of destiny or fate pushing forward dramatic shifts.


They are like "supercharged New Moons," emphasizing external actions, bold initiatives, and planting seeds for long-term growth.

Themes: Focus on worldly matters, identity, leadership, and external changes (e.g., career pivots or public roles). They can reveal hidden potentials or truths, urging proactive steps, but with intensity that feels chaotic or urgent.

2 sources

Symbolic Mechanism: The Moon blocks the Sun, symbolizing instincts and emotions temporarily overshadowing ego and willpower, leading to breakthroughs in self-expression or purpose.

Impact: Often positive for innovation, but can feel disruptive if resisting change; in mundane astrology, they may influence governments or authority figures.

Lunar Eclipses:

Core Energy: Signify endings, releases, and closures, acting as "supercharged Full Moons" that bring EMOTIONAL culminations and manifestations. - Charles Kirk shot

They highlight what needs to be let go, such as old habits, relationships, or fears.

Themes: Emphasize internal, emotional, and relational dynamics, including subconscious revelations, healing, and transitions. They illuminate HIDDEN feelings or truths, fostering REFLECTION and SURRENDER.


Symbolic Mechanism: The Earth shadows the Moon, representing practical realities or collective influences eclipsing pure emotions, leading to clarity through release.

Impact: More introspective and relationship-oriented, potentially triggering breakdowns or epiphanies; in mundane astrology, they affect the masses or public sentiment.



Key Differences

Initiation vs. Culmination: Solar eclipses kickstart cycles (new chapters), while lunar ones wrap them up (endings and resolutions).

External vs. Internal Focus: Solar are outward-directed (actions, opportunities), lunar inward (emotions, releases).

Intensity and Perception: Solar can feel more ABRUPTand "negative" due to sudden changes, but both are neutral tools for growth—lunar might seem gentler yet deeply emotional.
How the Left Programmed Young People to Hate
By David Betz and Michael Rainsborough


In the spring of 1975, the Red Army Faction, more popularly known as the Baader-Meinhof gang, stormed the West German Embassy in Stockholm and murdered two of its staff before setting the building ablaze. In its aftermath, a British tabloid printed a headline whose bluntness masked its profundity: ‘So, Who’s Sick?‘

It was less a headline than a rhetorical diagnosis, reflecting the bewilderment at these seemingly senseless acts of terror. Was it the bourgeois world condemned as corrupt by these self-styled revolutionaries, or was it the revolutionaries themselves, who in their righteous fervour appeared possessed by demons?

The question was never one that admitted an easy answer in that moment, and it remains just as piercing in ours. For when, half a century later, Charlie Kirk was struck down in the midst of civic debate, and when voices on the ‘progressive’ Left respond not with horror but with unholy glee, we are forced once again to confront the same ambiguity. Who is diseased? Who is truly sick? The question still hangs in the air, accusing its audience as much as its subjects.

The Eclipse of Compassion

The murder of Charlie Kirk was barbarous enough, but what followed was more chilling still. Social media, that great theatre of contemporary sentiment, resounded with elation rather than grief. Where the natural response should have been mourning and sober reflection, there was instead celebration, applause, even exultation. The old pieties of compassion and human dignity were trampled beneath a chorus of malevolence.

If we return to 1975, we can discern that the spectacle is hardly without precedent. The chronicler of the Red Army Faction’s rise and fall, Stefan Aust, described the psychosis that fuelled its violence as the Baader-Meinhof Complex: a toxic brew of revolutionary ideology, middle-class angst and personality cultism, in which politics fused with pathology. Terror and bloodshed were the logical expression of this worldview.

Jillian Becker, in her study of the same phenomenon published in 1977, placed the emergence of the Baader-Meinhof gang within an extended historical frame, tracing how West Germany’s post-war radicals were the children of those who had lived through the Third Reich — parents whose relationship with Nazism was often ambivalent, sometimes unrepentant. Their children judged them guilty of complicity or cowardice. In turn, they felt they had no tradition to receive let alone uphold, no cultural authority to embrace as their own. Becker memorably described them as Hitler’s Children, who expressed their alienation in violence against the very society that had given them life and often prosperity.

The parallels with today are clear. The obnoxious, jeering, bratty mobs on social media and their elevation of spite into virtue: these too are not simply political stances but symptoms of generational breakdown. Becker’s ‘lost children’ of post-war Germany were orphaned by the silence and ambiguities of their parents’ Nazi past. Today’s youth, though shaped by different conditions, are estranged in an analogous way — heirs to a liberal order that preached emancipation but delivered only deracination.

Children of the Void

Becker’s account of Germany’s post-war radicals was of a generation forsaken by history — children who, faced with no inheritance they could accept without shame, turned their fury against the civilisation that had produced them. That revolt finds its echo 50 years later.

The YouTube channel Richard The Fourth, one of the few voices to offer measured and calm reflections on our troubled times, spoke in similar terms of those TikTokkers, X users and BlueSkyers who rejoiced in Charlie Kirk’s murder. “Who are these lost souls? Where did they come from?” he asked. They were, he suggested, “the lost children of the boomer generation”, alienated by the failures of a secular progressivism that promised transcendence through empathy and emancipation from tradition, but in the end gifted them only spiritual vacuity.

These people are not monsters by nature; they are the offspring of a culture that extolled compassion while detaching it from justice, that proclaimed liberation even as it erased the sources of meaning. The progeny of flower power have become the children of a void, and in that void, savagery takes root.

The historical parallels, then as now, are evident: youth cut adrift from their cultural moorings find themselves drawn less to renewal than to destruction. Then as now, dislocation breeds violence and scorn rather than reflection. Becker’s Hitler’s Children and Richard’s “lost souls” are separated by time and circumstance yet bound together by the same pattern: a society that cannot pass down its traditions to its successors is liable to be repudiated by them.

If Aust diagnosed the Baader-Meinhof Complex and Becker revealed the deeper dereliction that sustained it, Richard The Fourth’s reflections illuminate the pathology of our own time. The cheering at murder and the inversion of empathy into its opposite are the symptoms of a Liberal Nihilism Complex: a syndrome in which the promises of modernity collapse into petulance and hostility, leaving only a cohort of ‘feral goblins’, mocking and howling into the abyss.

Creating the Land of Hatred

Contemporary academics, especially in the social sciences, have little of real value to offer humanity, but the few decent ones — those who write for this outlet, of course — still have the capacity to bring depth and perspective to some of our present predicaments.

We are neither spiritualists nor psychologists and cannot claim to have a greater window into the minds of these lost souls than anyone else. What we can offer, though, is decades of engagement with the study of strategic conduct: the motives and means of those who resort to violence in pursuit of political ends. And it is here that we wish to advance a thesis that goes further than viewing the collapse of empathy as an unfortunate by-product of social confusion.

What we are witnessing is not a mishap. Whatever the spiritual degradation and cultural dispossession of these young minds, they are, nevertheless, instruments of history. The way they have been psychologically programmed is no quirk of fate; it has been done with intent. They have been conditioned for a purpose.

To explain this means walking backward into history. We could begin with the French Revolution, but for simplicity’s sake let us start a decade before 1975; in 1966, when Mao Zedong unleashed the Cultural Revolution in China, mobilising youth against their elders, students against teachers, children against parents. He did not stumble into chaos; he conjured it — because chaos was useful.

In Wild Swans, Jung Chang’s memoir of her family’s turmoil during the Cultural Revolution, she recounts that Mao ruled by getting people to despise one another. He understood the ugliest human instincts — envy and resentment — and knew how to weaponise them. “By nourishing the worst in people, Mao created a moral wasteland, a land of hatred.”

What Jung Chang described was not an incidental consequence of revolutionary excess but the very heart of its method: hatred deliberately sown, division systematically engineered, cruelty unleashed as a political instrument.

The lesson travelled westward. French intellectuals, jaded by the ossified torpor of Soviet communism, visited China and found in Mao’s carnival of destruction a perverse vitality. They imported his ideas, transmuting them into the currency of post-structuralist thought, which in turn shaped the practice of the Baader-Meinhof gang and others like them. From there it was but a short step to their entrenchment on Anglo-American campuses.

In the United States, groups that emerged from 1960s student radicalism, such as the Weather Underground, adopted similar tactics. Their manifesto, Prairie Fire (1974), named after Mao’s dictum that a single spark can ignite a conflagration, urged radicals to exploit racial and class divisions precisely because such divisions could be rendered unbridgeable.

Prairie Fire, which is still an influential text on the American radical Left, is a handbook for permanent confrontation. Its pages bristle with the conviction that America’s prosperity, its institutions, its constitutional liberties are all obstacles to be torn down. It demanded escalation over reconciliation — more division, deeper fractures, sharper antagonisms. For its authors, harmony was stasis, and stasis was defeat. Hatred was no passing symptom; it was the weapon itself.

This was not a politics of justice but of immolation. Harmony was the enemy; hatred the accelerant.

The Long March into the Academy

The campaigns of violence waged by groups such as the Weather Underground and the Baader-Meinhof gang were eventually broken. In the latter’s case, their downfall was signalled by the successful storming of a hijacked Lufthansa jet in Mogadishu in October 1977 by German GSG9 Special Forces, assisted by the SAS, which led to the suicide of the first generation of leaders in Stammheim Prison. After these reversals, many radicals withdrew to safer ground: the universities. There, sheltered by tenure and steeped in jargon, they recast their struggle into something less visible but more enduring.

What could no longer be pursued through bombs and bullets was now carried forward in the idiom of theory. Critical theory, post-colonialism, gender studies — all served the same end. Established systems of knowledge and reasoning were methodically dismantled, and in their stead rose the new orthodoxy of ‘social justice’. In this dispensation, social justice meant rancour without limit. The effort of the intellect was no longer a quest for truth. Instead, it was to be redirected into the calculated manufacture of animosity.

Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe set out this programme with striking clarity in Hegemony and Socialist Strategy (1985). Their project was never the reconciliation of differences. It was, rather, in their words, “to extend social conflictuality to a wide range of areas” in order to generate “new antagonisms”, arising out of “highly diverse struggles: urban, ecological, anti-authoritarian, anti-institutional, feminist, anti-racist, ethnic, regional, or that of sexual minorities”. The aim was less to close fissures in the body politic than to ensure they remained open wounds. The scholarly mind was recast: no longer to think and analyse, let alone to seek concord, but to irritate and inflame.

What they offered was more than theory; it was revolutionary strategy re-clothed in academic garb. Laclau and Mouffe made plain that the task of progressive politics was to create new fronts of enmity, new identities defined not by their substance but by their opposition — a creed of victims and oppressors, endlessly proliferating, endlessly unreconciled. In their schema, the intention was never to knit society together into an equilibrium, only to drive it into perpetual dissonance.

Nor was this movement hidden, or without its early critics. Allan Bloom in The Closing of the American Mind (1987) saw where it was all leading. He warned that the university was ceasing to be the guardian of truth and culture. Instead, relativism was being allowed to erode tradition, while grievance displaced learning. He foresaw the battlelines forming long before the wider culture wars broke out.

In the decades that followed, the academy was unmade: from bastions of learning into factories of disaffection. The lecture hall, once devoted to dispassionate inquiry, became a place where conflict and division were intentionally stirred.

Engineering Discord

The end of the Cold War gave the enterprise added impetus. With the supposed ‘end of history’, liberal triumphalism licensed universities and institutions to reinvent themselves as moral tribunals. Politics was recast as ethics, and ethics as indictment.

‘Diversity’, ‘equity’ and ‘inclusion’ became less articles of faith than a set of tactics — no longer instruments of compromise but of humiliation, tools by which resentment was stoked and sustained. Generations of students have since been trained to denounce rather than to reason, to persecute rather than to persuade. This is Mao’s Red Guards reconstituted for a digital age: armies of accusation, armed less with AK-47s than with hashtags and HR manuals.

Those who dismiss the ‘culture wars’ as a distraction misunderstand the nature of conflict in our time. The sociologist James Davison Hunter, who coined the phrase three decades ago, cautioned that when disputes cease to be arguments within a shared reality and instead become clashes over what reality itself is, rapprochement is no longer possible. At that point, the logic of civic debate and constitutional politics gives way to the logic of force.

To see all this as a tragic misfortune is deeply mistaken. What has emerged is not spontaneous disorder but a carefully tended culture of antipathy — fertilised by theory, irrigated by resentful passions and sustained by bureaucracies whose survival depends on perpetual conflict.

The Fruits of Permanent War

The harvest is plain to see — in the mayhem and murder on a Utah campus, in the digital mobs that revel and rage across social media, and in a public discourse poisoned by denunciation, where opponents are cast as existential threats — Nazis, fascists, and every other heresy of the age — solely for the crime of disagreement. In such a climate, the very possibility of civil discourse dissolves, leaving only the grammar of hatred.

It is the very condition Jung Chang described: a polity increasingly characterised by malice, nurturing the worst in its citizens, sustained by leaders who profit from fracture.

To reiterate, this is not collateral damage. It is the design. A fractured society is a pliable society. The more its members despise one another, the easier it is for elites to consolidate power under the guise of adjudicating conflicting rights-claims. A peaceful society cannot be radicalised. A society at war with itself can be subverted from within.

Here we confront the image of our times: young people clapping bloodshed, institutions that tremble before mobs, elites that fan flames for advantage. This is no vision of reform. No accommodation of political differences. It is the shadow of perpetual strife — the deliberate cultivation of a land of hatred.

The Terminal Condition

Thus, the question of 1975 — “Who’s sick?” — has found its answer. It is no longer only the young who jeer at murder, though they remain responsible for their choices. Yet their conduct reflects more than personal failing. It is the outcome of a society that abandoned its traditions, hollowed out its own authority and left its youth open to manipulation by those who profit from discord. Individuals may bear the guilt, but the culture that fashioned them must also stand condemned.

The signs of decay are no longer hidden. It is the parable of the Emperor’s New Clothes: the pretence sustained only so long as no one dares to speak what all can see. What we are living through is an epidemic of noticing — a slow, reluctant recognition that the social fabric is threadbare and that the fractures are premeditated, not incidental.

David Horowitz, who as editor of the radical 1960s periodical Ramparts once marched in the ranks of the radical Left before renouncing it, understood these dynamics better than most. He argued that the upheavals of the era were not motivated by the “longing for justice”. It was “not a quest for peace but a call to arms. It is war that feeds the true radical passions, which are not altruism or love, but nihilism and hate.” The reality of their political programme, he lamented, “entails only permanent war, that observes no truth and respects no law, and whose aim is to destroy the only world we know”.

“Hysterical” Anti-Trump Protesters Claim State Visit Could Lead to British Death Squads
By Will Jones


Anti-Donald Trump protesters have been accused of “hysterical scaremongering” after producing a film suggesting the US President’s visit this week could lead to Britain being policed by paramilitary death squads. The Telegraph has more.

In a two-minute video released on social media, the Stop Trump Coalition claimed Mr Trump was “opening the door to global fascism” and said his visit would drag Britain “further into the abyss”.

The group is planning a mass demonstration on Wednesday to coincide with the President’s second state visit and is calling for thousands to take part in a march.

But politicians have warned the group to dial down the rhetoric after it broadcast dystopian fake news reports featuring people being kidnapped and killed on the orders of the Government.

The video is fronted by Zoe Gardner, a seasoned Left-wing campaigner, who tells viewers: “There is a darkness coming. It has already swallowed America and now it is coming for us too.”

She goes on: “On September 17th Donald Trump comes back to Britain and the fight for our future comes to Parliament Square and how our nation reacts that day decides everything about our future.”

The film includes a fake news report suggesting huge England flags with the slogan “Send Them Home” had been hung from Tower Bridge.

It then cuts to a fictional recruitment campaign for the imaginary state-controlled British Defence League (BDL).

A man in paramilitary uniform, with a union flag on his shoulder, says: “Some say woke, we say weakness. They call it diversity, we call it dilution. I fight for the British Defence League now I am asking you, stand with me patriots together keeping Britain pure.”

In a second fictional report, a newsreader fronting a channel called BNN solemnly tells viewers: “Liverpool and Birmingham are in flames tonight as masked BDL officers detain hundreds under the Home Security Act. Ministers say it is to protect so-called ‘real Britons’ but campaigners are saying
"Meridian/Vulcanis Midpoint" is a term used in Uranian astrology, referring to the midpoint between the Meridian (MC) and the hypothetical planet Vulcanus (representing the principle of the "spark of creation" or the inner fire that drives transformation). This midpoint, like all midpoints, is considered a point of activation and can indicate how a person experiences a specific event or situation.
Understanding the Components
Meridian (MC): In astrology, the Midheaven or Meridian (MC) represents the peak of the chart, career, public image, and ambition.
Vulcanis (Vulcanus): This is a hypothetical planet in Uranian astrology that is not a recognized astronomical body but symbolizes a potent creative force, the "spark of life," or the inner fire of creation and transformation.
Midpoint: In astrology, a midpoint is the exact halfway point between two points or celestial bodies in a chart.
Interpreting the Meridian/Vulcanis Midpoint
Catalytic Action: Planets that aspect or fall on the Meridian/Vulcanis midpoint can act as triggers or catalysts for events related to one's career, public life, and the driving force of creation or transformation.
Connection to Destiny: The Meridian itself is connected to the Earth's equator, symbolizing a person's connection to the Earth and their earthly existence. When combined with Vulcanus, this midpoint can signify how one's creative fire connects to their life purpose and public life.
Application: To understand this midpoint, one would look for any planets in a birth chart that fall directly on the Meridian/Vulcanis midpoint or are in an exact conjunction to it. This can provide insights into a person's motivations and how they express their innate creative power in the public sphere.
