AQUARIUS - January 19th  to February 18th, 2012

We go into 2012 witnessing the first hard angle between Uranus and Pluto since they conjuncted in 1966. 1966 was the sexual revolution and a total change to traditional family structure - especially wrt women. Pluto is power; power that is not challenged....But Uranus goes where angels fear to tread, and stood up to the power and posture of Pluto....the roles in the family shifted and changed, with mom going out to work to create a life of her own. The masculine role had to shift too, and many times it didn't, or didn't go quietly.

The world we have today - a much freer, relaxed world, with independence and acceptance of cultures and religions by those born then and subsequently, is because Uranus and Pluto met up in Virgo in the early-middle 60's. Now they are forming their first challenge, as Uranus is about to square Pluto in 2012.

It's been 44 years since they conjuncted in 1966, and in 2012 Uranus will make its first hard angle to Pluto.....squaring Pluto from Aries to Capricorn. We're seeing it already as it builds to a peak. Uranus is all about computers, and as Uranus moves in, we're seeing the proliferation of data and social networks.....the conjunction in '66 brought computers into the home.

Pluto (ruler of Scorpio) represents the inevitability of change, the transformation of creation & destruction, life & death, whether literal or metaphorical; physically, emotionally, mentally or psychologically cleansing, purging, upheaval, elimination, catharsis, regeneration, healing, revitalization, metamorphosis…the butterfly emerging from the cocoon, fearlessly letting go of the old to embrace the new. This alchemical transmutation is irreversible & inevitable…part of life.

The expression of complex Plutonian in-depth energy is extremely dynamic & intense, rising from the subconscious/ unconscious realms, acted out through behaviors that are compulsive, obsessive, secretive, hidden, subversive; it is the transcendental aspect of sexuality; energy released from the core of the subconscious.

In Uranus and the Aquarian age ( element air - waves ) thought will serve as a channel to higher octave energy sourced from the 8th dimension.

The 8th dimension is that of unity consciousness, or simply put, God's consciousness.

The Prince/Preist of Space can also be interpereted as "The Ruler of Air", as Horus the Child is the HAWK. Air in the esoteric sciences is very much connected to the function of Communication.  

This  will come to be known as the Revolution of Consciousness.

Notice the Goddess Nuit bowing over the twin God, on her ankles and wrists she has bands that bear the Symbol of Aquarius and the Twin currents of the New Aeon. Receiving and Sending simultaneously interacting with the Cosmic Egg.

God of the sky and the first ruler of the heavens, Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius. He is the son and mate of Gaia, who created him without help.Saturn was the ruling Titan who came to power by castrating his Father Uranus. In Astrology, the energies of Uranus are electric and crammed with change. Uranus is forward-looking. It balks at tradition, and celebrates originality and individuality. Uranus is associated with technology, innovation, discovery, and all that is progressive.

On the up side, Uranus is associated with enlightenment, progressiveness, objectivity, novelty, and ingenuity. Negative expression of Uranus is rebelliousness without a cause and irresponsibility.

When Uranus is not developed, it reacts; but when natives are truly in tune with its energies, Uranus is highly intuitive. It represents the spark of intuition that spurs invention. We can see Uranus as the intuition that sparks further studies or investigation. Discovered in 1781, between the American and French revolutions, Uranus symbolizes our capacity to go beyond limits.

Uranus, the higher octave of Mercury ( ruler of communication ), is often affiliated with the higher mental faculties, intellectual powers that go beyond analytical reason and rationality. The faculty of intuition is particularly associated with Uranus. Intuition is simply the immediate apprehension of an idea or concept that is not received through the physical senses. All of us utilize intuition everyday, and more significantly, we often make our more important decisions in life based on intuition rather than our senses or analytical reasoning. Intuition is what allows us to conceive of notions like archetypes, Ideal Forms, Pythagorean numbers, and sacred geometry. Intuition can allow us to envision our own personal future, or it can be used to gain insight into the workings of the archetypal realm, the invisible realm, or cosmic system that orders and structures the visible universe.

Uranus is the seventh planet from the Sun and the third largest (by diameter).

Most of the planets spin on an axis nearly perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic but Uranus' axis is almost parallel to the ecliptic. At the time of Voyager 2's passage, Uranus' south pole was pointed almost directly at the Sun. This results in the odd fact that Uranus' polar regions receive more energy input from the Sun than do its equatorial regions. Uranus is nevertheless hotter at its equator than at its poles. The mechanism underlying this is unknown. Uranus' magnetic field is odd in that it is not centered on the center of the planet and is tilted almost 60 degrees with respect to the axis of rotation.
