But first, we'll run into resistance, since the powers-that-be won't want to give up their control. Capricorn is an earth sign that deals with collective resources and corporations, institutions and governments. It governs society as a whole and how we contribute to it. Pluto in Capricorn will transform, reform, and reassess these institutions, as well as our sense of borders and boundaries, our ideas of property and resource rights. We will also be reassessing societal norms - types of marriage, the empowerment of blacks and women and minorities, immigration issues, mindless consumerism and our sense of work. Perhaps we will soon see a black or a woman president? We will reconsider the issues of wealth distribution, the environment, civil rights, aging, corporate rights, and our sense of social responsibility. These next 16 years will continue the dialogue of the two energies that were in play on 9/11 - Saturn opposite Pluto. Capricorn is ruled by Saturn - an energy that fosters fear, limitations, structures, patriarchy, as well as responsibility and discipline - and Pluto will continue to dig up the dirt on the secrets our government wants us to ignore. Our job as engaged citizens will be to demand the changes that are needed to get America to live up to its own ideals.

Pluto has an orbit of 248 years - it takes that long to get back to the same place. Pluto has not been in Capricorn since November 1762 - December 1778. This is the time that saw the Boston Tea Party (rebelling against Corporations) and the American Revolution; the confiscation of church lands in Russia, the abolition of the Inquisition in France, the first circumnavigation of the Earth and the beginning of the industrial revolution. Since Pluto was not discovered until 1930, this will be the first time that we are conscious of Pluto's energy in Capricorn. We need another American Revolution - one that will go back to the original intentions of our Founding Fathers (who turned to the Founding Mothers of the Iroquois nation for many of our concepts of government.) This time we have to do it right! And so we need to pay attention while Mercury and Neptune interact in Aquarius so that we have a vision to offer people about the changes that are possible.

There will be much more to say about Pluto in Capricorn, but I'll leave that for another day. I just want to end by saying that the first degree of Capricorn corresponds to the Winter Solstice - the rebirth of the Divine Sun. The most important relationship we need to develop is the relationship to our spiritual Self. During these next years, if we're to complete the work of transforming the world, we must first commit ourselves to a deep relationship to our souls. After that, anything is possible.

As always, pay attention to your dreams, especially for the next few months while Mercury and Neptune dance together. Write them down as soon as you wake up - keep a journal just for dreams by your bedside! - and try to think about their meaning during the day. If they're too complicated, call me and set up an appointment. Your dreams will tell you more about your life and goals than you will ever know.

An astrology reading is also a good way to see your self from another perspective. The heavens do echo our inner life!

Enjoy yourself this full moon. It's a good time to socialize and have fun.
