It is most cer\u00adtain\u00adly true that the tests faced, and the lessons learned in any one year may con\u00adtin\u00adue into the fol\u00adlow\u00ading year (or sev\u00ader\u00adal years), as the unfold\u00adment of one day into the next is cer\u00adtain\u00adly dri\u00adven and informed by ener\u00adgies and expe\u00adri\u00adences that wax and wane over many weeks, months and&nbsp;years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Plu\u00adto in Capri\u00adcorn \u2014 The End of an&nbsp;Age<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Earth as a whole, the most impor\u00adtant plan\u00ade\u00adtary influ\u00adences remain in place, with some vari\u00ada\u00adtions on a theme we have been faced with for some time now. Cer\u00adtain\u00adly, the pas\u00adsage of Plu\u00adto through the Sign of Capri\u00adcorn, (2008 through 2024), con\u00adtin\u00adues to pro\u00advide the pri\u00adma\u00adry heart\u00adbeat of our spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal chal\u00adlenge. I have called this once every 250-year cyclic peri\u00adod the \u201cend of an age\u201d, which was clear\u00adly so for the pre\u00advi\u00adous pas\u00adsages in the ear\u00adly 1500\u2019s and the 1700\u2019s. In those ear\u00adli\u00ader peri\u00adods, and I would think most by now would agree it is true for our own time too, the world seemed to fall apart as Polit\u00adi\u00adcal, Eco\u00adnom\u00adic and Cul\u00adtur\u00adal dis\u00adin\u00adte\u00adgra\u00adtions rever\u00adber\u00adat\u00aded through all realms. But these spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal earth\u00adquakes also her\u00adald\u00aded each time that a new age was dawning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A new world is com\u00ading, but that requires that an old order give way. Of course, the fun\u00adda\u00admen\u00adtal nature of what it means to be human, our needs for food, shel\u00adter, com\u00adpan\u00adion\u00adship, love and secu\u00adri\u00adty are ever-present, but they are also evolving\/transforming, seem\u00ading\u00adly (or actu\u00adal\u00adly) at an expo\u00adnen\u00adtial rate, which is in large part due to what is known as \u201cthe sci\u00aden\u00adtif\u00adic rev\u00ado\u00adlu\u00adtion\u201d that began sev\u00ader\u00adal cen\u00adturies ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coper\u00adni\u00adcus, Bacon, Galileo, New\u00adton among many oth\u00ader \u201cless\u00ader knowns\u201d, ques\u00adtioned assump\u00adtions passed down from time immemo\u00adr\u00adi\u00adal. This quick\u00aden\u00ading of the human capa\u00adbil\u00adi\u00adty to know and alter our world has endowed human\u00adi\u00adty with pow\u00aders that have seem\u00ading\u00adly out\u00adstripped our wis\u00addom to wield them, whether in Physics = Nuclear weapons, or Biol\u00ado\u00adgy = Bio-engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Much that was will con\u00adtin\u00adue in some form of course, but much more of our social, eco\u00adnom\u00adic and polit\u00adi\u00adcal struc\u00adtures will be reformed\/transformed into new modes of expres\u00adsion, and they will cer\u00adtain\u00adly be informed by new ideas (or old ideas renewed) and mean\u00adings.

From 2017 on through into the begin\u00adning of 2019, we have been influ\u00adenced by the Uranus\/Neptune Semi\u00adSquare which is the first sig\u00adnif\u00adi\u00adcant aspect in their 170 cycle from con\u00adjunc\u00adtion to conjunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uranus rules \u201cIndi\u00advid\u00adu\u00adal\u00adi\u00adty\u201d; I call Uranus the \u201cAwak\u00aden\u00ader\u201d, as it is the Avatar of the High\u00ader or Freer Mind that forms one of the three aspects of Spir\u00adit. Nep\u00adtune rules \u201cCom\u00admu\u00adnal\u00adi\u00adty\u201d; Nep\u00adtune is the Avatar of the Ener\u00adgy-Form that holds the whole of Cre\u00adation as One, the one abid\u00ading force that binds all to all, Uni\u00adver\u00adsal or Uncon\u00addi\u00adtion\u00adal&nbsp;Love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The inte\u00adgral rela\u00adtion\u00adship between these two reveals the para\u00addox\u00adi\u00adcal truth behind the mys\u00adtery of the Universe\u2019s con\u00adsti\u00adtu\u00adtion. Every\u00adthing, every par\u00adti\u00adcle and every \u201cBeing\u201d in this Uni\u00adverse is an indi\u00advid\u00adual that is a unique instance of spir\u00adit informed by its own Quin\u00adtes\u00adsence; yet all of these \u201cones\u201d are One in Spir\u00adit and fun\u00adda\u00admen\u00adtal\u00adly indi\u00advis\u00adi\u00adble from one anoth\u00ader. Through\u00adout all king\u00addoms of life, in age after age, there is an ever-shift\u00ading bal\u00adance between these two prin\u00adci\u00adples, between the One and the&nbsp;many.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ten\u00adsion between the Indi\u00advid\u00adual and the Com\u00admu\u00adni\u00adty wax\u00ades and wanes in any cul\u00adture or civ\u00adi\u00adliza\u00adtion.

This world-wide con\u00adfu\u00adsion has pro\u00adduced a cri\u00adsis of order and mean\u00ading\u00adful\u00adness for the many who yearn for a life and world that is \u201cFair and Free\u201d.

That way can be found by remem\u00adber\u00ading that these crises have come before, and at each moment our ances\u00adtors found a way by hold\u00ading firm to the great\u00adest truths, those pre\u00adcious jew\u00adels of spir\u00adit which nev\u00ader fade or fal\u00adter.
