Pluto
enters
Capricorn World
astrology predictions for 2008, 2009, 2010 until 2023. The history
of world events
with Pluto in
Capricorn (42AD to 1777). Pluto in the Zodiac Signs (1914-2007)
Background On
4 July 1776, the USA
declared itself independent from Great
Britain.
However, there is much controversy about its birth time. Here I am
working with a birth time of 2:12am.
In
this
article, I have checked many LIFE
ALTERING
events in America's history to
confirm the accuracy of this birth time.
If the USA horoscope has
a 2:12 am birth time , on 4 July 1776 in
Philadelphia, then Pluto
transiting through its house
cusps MUST work or the horoscope is incorrect.
Pluto is the most
powerful planet in the zodiac, in astrology. The most powerful sectors
of a
horoscope are the great angles, or two axes: the
horizon (1-7
house cusps) and
IC-MC (4-10 house cusps). Pluto transits (moves) very slowly through
the sky
with its orbit taking an awe inspiring 248
years. Lets see whether the USA
horoscope I am using is correct using transiting Pluto going through
these
great angles.
Conclusions When transiting Pluto (1786-87) was conjunct
the U.S.
Midheaven, the
U.S. Constitution was drawn up. This was profoundly important because
it set up
the laws by which America
is governed.
When
transiting Pluto (1890-92) was conjunct the U.S. Ascendant, the U.S.
took
ruthless control of its environment with: protectionism
(McKinley Tariff)
against foreign imports; the Anti-Trust Act to tackle massive
monopolies; ended
the Indian Wars through force; brought the contiguous U.S. under its
control,
by creating the last territory of Oklahoma; opened Ellis Island, the
major
entry point for immigrants between 1892-1954; the
invention of the
automobile,
the movie camera and electric chair (how Plutonian).
When
transiting Pluto (1947-48) was conjunct the U.S. 4th house, the U.S.
set up:
the defence structures (Defence Department, Joint Chiefs
of Staff, National
Security Council, CIA and the U.S. Air Force) to defend the homeland
(4th
house) against the threat of nuclear annihilation by
the communist Soviet
Union. The Cold War against the Soviet Union
went on
until 1988-90, when the Soviet Union
disintegrated.
When
transiting Pluto (1997-99) was conjunct the U.S. Descendant (7th
house), the
U.S.: tried to impeach President Clinton over a sex
scandal; invented
Viagra;
found new enemies to replace Communism with the so called War on
Terrorism,
including Al-Qaeda and the President of
Iraq, Saddam Hussein; led the first
attack on a sovereign country by NATO, when Yugoslavia was attacked;
launched
cruise missiles on supposed Al-Qaeda bases in Afghanistan;
saw the most
fanatical of religious fanatics, George W Bush, declare he would run
for
President.
I
have no doubt the USA
horoscope I am using is correct. My research which verifies this
assertion
follows.
1. Transiting
Pluto conjunct the USA Midheaven
(10th house).
The
Philadelphia Constitutional Convention
began on 25 May 1787.
The
actual text of the United States
Constitution, thelaws of the USA,
was completed on 17 September
1787,
but did not take effect until 4
March 1789. The structure of the U.S.
government was profoundly changed, as the Constitution replaced the
Articles of
Confederation with government power constrained through a division of
powers
and a system of checks and balances.
Transiting Pluto (Feb,
Aug 1786, Jan
1787) in Aquarius conjunct the USA Midheaven
(10th house). The aspect was within orb (effect) for around six months
either
side of the actual conjunctions, that is between August 1785 to August
1787. During
this time the USA Constitution was written! This is still
the most profound, lasting event in USA history,
writing the law of the USA, since the Declaration of Independence in 1776.
It took place as Pluto, the
most powerful planet in the zodiac, passed through the Midheaven, the
highest or
culminating point in the USA
horoscope! Complete transformation (Pluto) of the government, the law
and
presidency (Midheaven, 10th house) was the result.
This
is stunning evidence the 2:12 am
birth time is correct!
2. Transiting
Pluto conjunct the USA Ascendant
Transiting Pluto (Jun,
Nov 1890, May
1891, Jan, Mar 1892) in Gemini conjunct the USA Ascendant
(10th house). The aspect was within
orb (effect) for
six months either side of the actual conjunctions, that is between Dec
1889 to
Sept 1892.
1889 The great Oklahoma
land rush of 1.9 million acres. North and South
Dakota,
Montana and Washington
admitted into the Union. 1890Wyoming
enters the Union
as the first state with voting rights for women. The nation's two
largest
women's organizations merged as the National American Women's Suffrage
Association, to get the vote for women.In August, at Auburn Prison, New
York,
William Kemmler became the
first prisoner to be executed in the electric chair. America
went
protectionist by passing the McKinley Tariff. It was the highest U.S.
tariff so far at
over 49% on most imported goods. In July, the Sherman Anti-Trust Act
was enacted, the first U.S.
law to limit monopolies.
The Oklahoma Territory,
the last
territory in the contiguous U. S.,
was created. Idaho and Wyoming
were admitted to the Union. The Weather Bureau was created
within the
Dept. of Agriculture by an act of Congress.
1891 In January,
the Sioux surrendered, effectively ending the Indian Wars.A patent
for motion picture camera,
the first in its field in the U.S.,
was made byThomas Edison. 1892In
January, Ellis Island opened. Millions
of
immigrants have since passed through its portal.Walt Whitman died on March 26.
He is widely considered the greatest, most influential poet in U.S.
history.
The first successful petrol-powered automobile made in the U.S.
was built by Charles and Frank Duryea, bicycle designers and toolmakers
in Chicopee, MA.
Pluto
conjunct the Ascendant means: control over one’s environment;
attaining
success
in life by brutal, ruthless means; striving to attain power and
authority over
others.
As
transiting Pluto was conjunct the USA Ascendant (1891-92), two
inventions which
became two of America’s
greatest industries, cars and motion pictures,
appeared. Both radically (Pluto)
changed the U.S.
environment (Ascendant) and the way people see America
(Ascendant) forever: mastering great
distances (Ascendant) with the car, and
gaining enormous public influence through sex (Pluto) in the movie
industry.The
weather bureau came into being. Researching
(Pluto) U.S.
environmental
factors (Ascendant).The last area within contiguous America
became a territory. Complete lawful control (Pluto) over the
environment
(Ascendant).Female suffragettes became organized to claim
the vote. Women organizing to get political power over others
(Pluto
Ascendant). Ellis Island
opened. Between 1892 and Nov 1954, more than 12 million immigrants were
processed there. The immigrants radically (Pluto) changed the U.S.
environment (Ascendant).The
electric chair was first used for
an execution. This uniquely U.S.
symbol, the State using brutal annihilation methods (Pluto) to gain
authority.Heavy
protectionism was made law. Forceful
control (Pluto) of one’s environment (Ascendant).The Indian Wars ended. Brutal
suppression
(Pluto) led to control of the Indians.The
Anti-Trust Act was enacted. Trying
to control massive, powerful
companies who were monopolies
(Pluto) and their
effect on America
(Ascendant).Walt Whitman
died. Over a century after his
death, Whitman is a vital
presence in the
American cultural memory. Television
shows depict him. Musicians allude to him. Schools, bridges, parks,
shopping
malls etc., bear his
name. Death (Pluto) of
a poet who is an American icon.
In
1893, the year after transiting Pluto passed through the USA Ascendant,
the “Panic
of 1893” occurred. A growing credit shortage caused a
depression in which
15,000 businesses, 600 banks, and 74 railroads failed. There was severe
unemployment and wide-scale protesting, which in some cases
became very
violent. Transiting Pluto through an Ascendant changes things forever,
and
certainly brings with it the sting of the scorpion and some carnage.
There
is sufficient evidence here to accept that the USA Ascendant is at 70
Gemini and that the 2:12 am
birth
time is correct.
3. Transiting
Pluto conjunct the USA 4th house
Transiting Pluto (Aug
1947, Feb, Jun
1948) in Leo conjunct the USA 4th house. The aspect was within orb (effect) for six
months
either side of the actual conjunctions, that is
between Feb 1947 to Dec 1948.
1947-48 In
1947, the Cold War between the USA
and the Soviet Union began. In May, the Truman
Doctrine
was enacted to help stem the spread of Communism. In July-August, the
CIA, the Department
of Defence, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the National Security Council
and the U.S.
Air Force came into being. In November,
the House of Representatives passed citations
of contempt of Congress against 10 Hollywood
actors, regarding
allegations of communist influence in the movie industry.In March 1948, the U.S.
Supreme Court ruled
religious instruction in public schools violated the
Constitution. In April,
President Truman signed the Marshall Plan authorizing $5 billion in aid
for 16 European
countries. In May, the State of Israel was formed. In June,
the Berlin
blockade by the Soviet Union began. In July,
President
Truman issued the second peacetime military draft in the U.S.
amid increasing tensions with the Soviet
Union. The Cold
War was getting very cold indeed.
In
1947-48, as transiting Pluto became conjunct the U.S.
4th house, the U.S.
defence department structures were set up to defend the homeland
(4th house)
against the nuclear threat of annihilation (Pluto) from the Soviet
Union. The supposed communist threat to America
was used by Senator McCarthy and others in the mid 1950s to
unjustly crucify
many Americans, who were tarred with the brush of supposed enemies of
democratic America.
It was a shameful time in American history.
Everything
President Truman did in 1947-48 was to protect the American homeland
(4th
house) against the threat of annihilation (Pluto) by the communist Soviet
Union. The communist threat was burned so deeply into the
American
psyche that it remained the number one theme in American politics until
the fall of the Soviet Union in 1988-1990. It
became the
“fight to the death” (Pluto) of the two superpowers, who
both had
enough
nuclear weapons to annihilate (Pluto) the world. The Soviet
Union
was always pictured as being able to annihilate (Pluto) the American
homeland
(4th house).
In
1947-48, as transiting Pluto became conjunct the U.S.
4th house, the U.S.
alliance with the State of Israel began. It is a continuing story, with
both financial
and military support which has cost the U.S.
possibly hundreds of billions of dollars since 1948. It has also made
resolution of peace between Israel
and the Arabs impossible, because America
backs Israel
in
whatever it does. And from time to time the Israelis have been
absolutely
ruthless towards the Arabs.
It
could be argued that Jews within the Republican Administration,
especially Paul
Wolfowitz, made George W Bush behave in such an appalling way towards
the
Arabs, that it was only a matter of time before enraged Arabs reacted
and attacked
America,
as
they did on 11 September 2001
when they attacked the twin towers in New
York. Wolfowitz was the architect of the
foreign
policy of the George W. Bush administration known as the
Bush Doctrine, which
resulted in the invasion of Iraq.
The U.S.
is now
deeply entrenched in “another Vietnam War”, which will cost
it dearly,
which it
will lose. In the end, the
U.S.-Israel alliance has made the U.S.
the target of Islamic fundamentalists and terrorists. This alliance
began in
1947-48 with transiting Pluto conjunct
the USA
4th house. It can be argued it has “ripped the guts out of the U.S.
homeland” (Pluto conjunct 4th house).
The
evidence is simply stunning that the USA
horoscope I am using is correct.
4.Transiting
Pluto conjunct the USA Descendant
(7th house).
Transiting Pluto (Jan,
May, Nov 1998)
in Sagittarius conjunct the USA Descendant (7th house). The aspect was within orb
(effect) for six
months either side of the actual conjunctions, that is between July
1997 to May
1999.Pluto is the most powerful planet in the zodiac, in astrology.
Pluto
transits (moves) very slowly through the sky, its orbit takes 248
years. So
1997-99 was the first time it could pass through the USA
7th house, at 70 Sagittarius.
Pluto
rules: sex, fanatics, ruthless hatred, weapons of mass destruction
(atomic weapons),the will to exercise
overwhelming power, propagandists.
SEX
SCANDAL &
IMPEACHMENT TRIAL
Throughout 1998, President Bill Clinton’s sex scandal
(Pluto) with Monica Lewinskydominated
world television. In January, he denied he had had sexual relations
“with that
woman”. In August, ClintonClinton
was impeached.
admitted
to the world on TV to having had an “improper physical
relationship”
with
Lewinsky and to have “misled people” about the
relationship. In
December,
In
222 years, only ONE
U.S. President, Andrew Johnson in 1868, had been impeached before Clinton.
Also, President Nixon resigned from office
in 1974. Both Presidents’
Johnson
and Clinton were eventually acquitted. Clinton
was pursued with a “ruthless, fanatical hatred” (Pluto), by
his
political enemies (7th house). A President being so publicly belittled,
on the
world stage,
over a sex scandal (Pluto) has never been seen before. This
confirms transiting Pluto through the USA
7th house cusp at the time.
In
March 1999, Lewinsky’s book on her affair with Clinton
went on sale.
VIAGRA
On 27 March 1998,
the Food and Drugs Administration approved Viagra for use in treating
male
impotence. With Pluto (ruling sex) hitting off a
major angle in the U.S.
horoscope, Viagra seems to confirm again the birth time of 2:12 am.
AL-QAEDA On
23 February1998, Osama Bin Laden published a fatwa declaring jihad
(holy war)
against all Jews and Crusaders. Bin Laden is the head of the terrorist
group
Al-Qaeda.On 7 August, U.S.
embassies in Tanzania
and Kenya
were
bombed. The bombings were linked to Bin Laden. On 20 August the U.S.
military retaliated, launching cruise missiles against alleged Al-Qaeda
camps
in Afghanistan
and a suspected chemical plant in Sudan.
IRAQI
DISARMAMENT CRISIS When
transiting Pluto went through
the USA
horoscope’s 4th house in 1947-48, the USA
declared that the Cold War with the Soviet Union,
the
only other superpower with nuclear
weapons, had begun. Pluto rules weapons of
mass destruction.As transiting Pluto began to go through the USA
horoscope’s 7th house in 1997-99: the U.S. Senate passed
Resolution 71,
in
February 1998, allowing President Clinton to “take all necessary
and
appropriate actions to respond to the threat posed by Iraq’s
refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs”.In June
and Sept 1997,
Iraqi officials
had harassed U.N. weapons inspectors. On 29 Oct, Iraq
said it would begin shooting down U-2 surveillance planes being used by
U.N. inspectors. Military action against Iraq
was threatened as early as February 1998 by the USA
and Britain.
There were continuing conflicts
throughout 1998 between the
U.N. weapons
inspectors and the Iraqi government.The USA
eventually
invaded Iraq
in
Mar 2003. It found no weapons of mass destruction. Much of Iraq
has been destroyed. Tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians have been
killed. And
the hatred against America
grows by the day.
1999 On 24
March 1999,
NATO (lead and controlled by the USA)
launched air strikes against Yugoslavia,
in the Kosovo War. It was the first
time NATO (the USA)
had attacked a sovereign country. The air strikes continued
until Yugoslavia
sign a peace treaty on 9 June. On 12 June, a
NATO-led peacekeeping force
entered Kosovo.
BUSH
TO RUN FOR THE
PRESIDENCY On 12 June 1999,
Texas
Governor George W Bush announced his intention to seek the
Republican
Party's nomination for President of the USA.
If you look at Bush's
horoscope, you
will note it has Pluto conjunct the Ascendant. This is no accident! Thetransiting Pluto conjunct the USA
7th house shows PLUTONIAN
things
happening to the USA
when he began his run for the Presidency.
Bush’s
horoscope is that of a fanatic (Pluto)
because his
Pluto is so dominant in his chart. Pluto conjunct his Ascendant makes
him:
attain success in life through brutal and ruthless means; have
the desire to
attain success at all costs. Bush is well known for calling his enemies
“killers”. Sadly, Bush is also a fanatic and a
sanctioner of
killings himself.
Over 40 000 civilians have been killed by the USA
in the Iraq
war.
When transiting Pluto (1947-48) came to conjunct the USA
4th house, the U.S.
entered the Cold War against the communist Soviet Union.
Both superpowers had nuclear weapons. It was a plutonian
(ultimate destruction)
time for America.
When transiting Pluto (1998-99) came to conjunct the USA
7th house, the U.S.
began to enter the so called War on Terrorism. It began pursuing Iraq,
claiming it had “weapons of mass destruction”. It made a
pre-emptive
cruise
missile strike on Al-Qaeda camps in Afghanistan.
It “forced” NATO, led by the U.S.,
for the first time to attack a sovereign nation, Yugoslavia.
I believe an important precedent was set,
the U.S. would and could now make pre-emptive
attacks on sovereign nations. Later on, the U.S.
invaded both Afghanistan
(Oct 2001) and Iraq
(Mar 2003). George W Bush began his run for the
Presidency. He is a religious
fanatic, a born-again Christian, who hates (Pluto) Muslims with as much
vitriol
as Osama Bin Laden, and other Islamic fundamentalists, hate
America
and the Jews. So now we have religious fanatics in the White House
waging the
supposed war of religion, and inciting more and more hatred between
Islam and
Christianity.
Further Evidence of
the accuracy of the USA horoscope
1.
In 1914 the USA
was threatened with financial disaster.It
was so serious that the New York Stock Exchange closed between 31 Jul-28 Nov 1914, as the biggest
gold
outflow in a generation imperiled the USA’s
ability to repay its foreign debt. During this time, transiting
Pluto was at 1-20 Cancer conjunct theUSA second
house cusp! ThroughoutOctober 1914, transiting Saturn was stationary at 20 Cancer
on the USA
2nd house cusp and USA Venus.
Catastrophic (Pluto) financial crisis (2nd house).Serious
(Saturn) financial crisis (2nd house).
2.
On 6 Apr 1917, the USA
entered WWI. Transiting Pluto was at
20 Cancer on the USA 2nd house cusp and conjunct the USA Venus,
ruler of 12th house. Catastrophic
(Pluto) loss of life
(Venus rules 12th house of death and mourning). Massive (Pluto) drain
on USA
finances (2nd house). From 22 Feb
to 23 Apr, transiting Saturn was stationary
on the USA Mercury. Grave decision (Saturn) to go to war in America’s
“face” (ruler of Ascendant). Global war (Pluto) which would
destroy the
old
empires of Europe (Pluto entering Cancer).
3.
On 25 October 1929,
the
Great Stock Market Crash began, catapulting the world into the Great
Depression. Transiting Saturn in
Capricorn got with
1½0 of the USA 8th house in April 1929 and finally
entered it in mid December. Saturn entering the 8th house (money) means
“bankruptcy”
more powerfully than any other astrological indicator. The Dow stock
market
indicator hit its bottom in July 1932, after losing 89% of its value.
4.
On 7 December 1941,
PearlHarbour
in Hawaii
was bombed by the Japanese and the USA
entered WWII. Transiting Pluto (stationary
Oct-Nov 1941, Aug 1942, stationary Jan-Jun 1943) in
Leo 45 degrees from the USA Mars, the god of war,
shows the USA’s
determination and aggression. Transiting
Chiron (stationary Oct-Dec 1941)entering the USA 4th
house. Death (Chiron) entering the
house of USA
families. Transiting Mars in Aries
opposed theUSA Saturn(July,
October and early December 1941). Mars Saturn is called the
“death
axis”. Saturn
rules the USA
8th House of death. In this time period, thetransiting
Marscrossed semi square (450) totransiting
Saturn and Uranus in Taurus
as they made a semi square to theUSA Sunand
sesqui
quadrate to theUSA
Saturn. Challenging others to a decisive fight (Saturn Uranus
Mars)
where USA
families (Sun rules 4th house) bear the brunt through deaths (Saturn
rules 8th house) of their children (Saturn in 5th house).
5.
The Korean War broke out on 25
June 1950. Up to 6 million soldiers died. Over 33 000
Americans died.Transiting Neptunein
Libra
(stationary
May-Jul 1950) conjunct the USA Saturn.
Serious depression (Saturn Neptune) to USA’s
children (5th house Saturn) as they face death (Saturn
rules 8th house). Transiting Plutoin
Leo (Jan, Jul
1950,
stationary Apr-May 1951) semi square theUSA
Venus. Serious (Pluto) financial losses (Venus
in 2nd house). Grave (Pluto)
depression and death (Venus rules 12th house).
6.
In October 1973 the first world oil shock took began. The Dow (DJIA)
stockmarket index dropped 40% in the next 10 months, so it was a
serious
recession in the USA.Transiting Saturn(Aug, Dec 1973,
May 1974) in Cancer entered theUSA 2nd houseand conjuncted theUSA Venus. Serious
(Saturn) financial
crisis (2nd house).
