The Moon in Capricorn is joined by
Pluto, who has been wrecking havoc with economies and governments. Astrologers
are quick to say that Pluto represents the energy of death and rebirth, but we
have to remember that in myth, Pluto is also the judge of the underworld, the
judge who makes us face the Truth. The
planet Pluto seems to drag up the muck, the underworld stench of what's rotten
in the sign it travels through before it starts the restructuring of new
life.
In Capricorn, it makes us face the truth of our communal structures. And so far, we've seen that our present system is pretty much all smoke and mirrors. It is not taking care of the Commons for us the intangibles that we all have a share in: our water, our air, our earth and its riches. So the question is: why do we need it if it isn't doing its job?
Pluto conjunct the Moon means that we have to sit in judgment on our collective culture and the emotional attachments we have to consumerism and corporate-run government. When the mother dies in fairy tales, it means there is no real emotional intelligence to teach us about life. Although the rules (the father) are clear, we have to repress our emotional responses or be judged as wanting.
This eclipsed Moon, coupled with Pluto, will release those repressed feelings. It could get scary. But only if we continue to ignore their presence. We need to understand that all the witches we fear are only our own repressed emotions and thoughts.
