Episode Details

You know, when I was born, Uranus was in a balsamic relationship to Pluto. This is a generational imprint. That was the mid-60s, and it completed between 1965–1966. And what was also peculiar about it—they were both in Virgo, Saturn and Chiron in Pisces were making an opposition to this rare conjunction (it takes 140+ years for they to meet). That created a very special situation for the people who are right now entering into their 60-year-old moment.

Dane Rudhyar wrote then: “What is happening today, as Uranus starts its new cycle of relationship with Pluto, is that the very foundations of man's collective mentality are being transformed; for Pluto represents indeed the planetary aspect of mind, the one mind of Man.”

“Pluto, I repeat, refers to the collective mind of humanity. In a narrower sense it refers to some closely interrelated and authoritarian human groups... But when Uranus acts upon Pluto... Uranus does not allow Pluto, as it were, to pull everything to the bottom or core. Uranus periodically fecundates and always stirs up the realm of Pluto; and we are witnessing such a fecundation.” 1965

So let’s talk about this trine that we have right now. It’s the first time that we have a trine with these two planets after their 1965-66 new cycle while we’re living. Probably the time before this trine happened, it was a closing trine—was in the 1922s. The last opposition was in 1901: the structure of the world began to reconfigure. Nations emerged, empires fractured, ideologies clashed, and industry consolidated under new frameworks of power.

But it has taken 60 years for Pluto and Uranus to create a trine as I spoke in recent articles about aspects. And they’re doing it: Pluto at the very beginning of Aquarius and Uranus at the very beginning of Gemini, both air signs. One is fixed—Aquarius—and the other one is mutable. So there’s this energy. It’s a supporting energy bringing new ways of doing things, while at the same time there’s a transformation and revolution in society.

You see, Uranus is ruling Pluto that is in Aquarius, so they’re really supporting each other. So the question is:

-where in your life do you feel that you are bringing some inner mental revolution?

-And how is this going to be transforming not only your life but your place in society?

(Pluto and Uranus in an opening trine signifies a maturation of the revolutionary cycle seeded in the 1960s. They are stabilizing vectors; air signs bring networked cognition, distributed innovation, and collective pattern restructuring. Aquarius sets the collective container. Gemini disperses the data. Uranus rules Pluto in Aquarius, so this trine is recursive, it supports a long-range synthesis of disruption into form.)

Relational clarity and inner refinement

And although these transits are not personal, they become personal now that Mars just entered Libra. We had Mars going through Virgo in the last weeks, joined the South Node of the Moon. It was initiating a way to look into the systems and the habits and the way our very complex mind edits out and edits in situations. It was all about initiating purity in the discernment and also calibrating obsessive ways of refinement.

Now that it’s in Libra and in opposition to this Saturn and Neptune retrograding in Aries before they reenter Pisces, it is initiating a way how to create a balance between all these other subjects. So let’s say it is saying: hey, I’m an individual that wants to liberate myself from many things that I no longer care for, but how do I respond in relationship to others, in relationship to my needs, in relationship in general?

And I can tell you that I’ve been going through that deeply. That’s why I’ve been trying to keep some silence an
