.Uranus emphasizesindividuality and also produces sudden breakthoughs and explosions; Plutoconcentrates forcefully on internal and external power struggles, and endeavors toeffect transformations by bringing everything to the surface.People born when thereis a hard aspect between the two planets are typical of times in which hiddentensions are building up in readiness for all kinds of revolution.And when personalplanets in the charts are implicated, these people feel a need to express theirrevolutionary fervor personally.In 1965, for example, Uranus and Pluto were conjunct.Quite a few children of thatgeneration became filled with an uncontrollable spirit that was taboo-breaking (Pluto)and provocative (Uranus) in the exterem: as these children reached puberty, many ofthem in different countries became punks.If Pluto and Uranus strengthen each other by apect, they are not easy to hold backbut tend to push things to the limit.Pluto, representing force and transformation,aided and abetted by Uranus, can create sudden explosive acts of violence, or intensetensions affecting us deeply or welling up from the depths of the collective psyche.Fresh ideas in psychology and psychoanalysis are important instances of therenovating influence of Uranus on the repression and depth of Pluto.A primeexample is the publication in 1912 of Freud's 'Totem and Taboo', a work in which hecut through the conventions of his era and charted new territory in medicine.Hereaped a whirlwind of indignation for daring to slaughter so many sacred cows.Thebook came out during an inconjunct between Uranus and Pluto, a naturally disruptiveinfluence and not, one may add, conducive to success.In the same period, Adler andJung left Freud to strike out on their own.Also in 1912, Jung's first major work,'Wandlungen und Symbole der Libido', appeared.This also was highly original andbroke many of the current taboos but, at first, was more successful than Freud'soffering.In fact it was one of the many causes of the rupture between Freud andJung.Anyway, when Pluto and Uranus are in aspect, break-throughs occur in things to dowith the hidden and suppressed, with the masses (since they also are ruled by Pluto),with power and power-struggles, and with the fierce untamed forces in matter(atomic energy, atomic fusion, atomic research, etc.).Strain and stress are inevitablewith the aspects, because Pluto, which intensifies everything it touches, is activatingthe restlessness, tension and impulsiveness of Uranus.Therefore, if we have these aspects linked to personal factors in our charts, we oughtto take care not to be too uncompromising, and not to try and demolish everything(risking the destruction of more than we can restore).Impulsiveness and intensitymay need curbing.On the other hand, we could have enormous potential fordetective and research work, and make unusual discoveries in our chosen field.There is always a certain amount of tension in the character when personal planetsare involved; and this shows itself in restless searching, in delving into matters thathave little to do with the everyday world, and in a refusal to bow to the dictates ofsuperiors.For Pluto makes us want to deal with them in our own way.Therefore, ifthere is attempted interference, we refuse to tolerate it (in the tense aspects or theconjunction) or else manipulate it so as to change its direction (in the moreharmonious aspects).Battles for power or authority, and sometimes savage badmanners, are possible, with, at the same time, a grim determination to build our ownlives and develop our own individuality.When these aspects are linked with personalfactors in the chart, we demand the right to make mistakes; in fact, we need to makemistakes in order to grow up how we want, regardless of sound parental advice.Natal Uranus square Pluto(Note: the quincunx will not fall within orb again until October 2035 and last fell outof a 2½º orb in December 1912, so is assumed to be of no direct importance toreaders of this; the opposition last fell outside an 8º orb in October 1905 and will notfall within an 8º orb again until October 2043.The last opposition occurred in 1900-1903, so the only people still living to have it in their birth charts are centenarians.)(Haydn Paul)The influence of the square aspect was to stimulate 'destructive' social change acrossinternational borders, to intensify all those latent nationalistic characteristics thathad been coming to the surface of the national group minds, until the only way toexpress and release the underlying tensions was through world conflict.The close square applied from 1931 to 1934; and the phase was of rapidmetamorphosis in crucial countries like Germany and Italy.These were two clearexamples of the impact of the Uranian-Plutonian energy, where nationalistictendencies and élitist attitudes were elevated into a sense of social direction,manipulated by dictatorial groupings in an attempt both to seize power and to benefitthe State by introducing new political concepts.The power complex and need todominate of the unregenerated Pluto energy is displayed in the need to expand theircontrol and influence into other less powerful nations, through ruthlessly expressedviolence and force.The general world economic instability helped to create the space for radical andrevolutionary political agitators to gain power, feeding off the exploited energy of will(Pluto) to build an apparently attractive edifice of the new society.In many cases, thisbasic urge to create new social structures was genuinely held by those whose motivesand ideals were socially beneficial; however, they were to lose their positions ofresponsibility to those whose intentions were more mixed, and who were being sweptalong by their receptiveness to the powerful energies pouring into the world, whichserved to over-stimulate aspects of their unintegrated personalities.The collective group responding to the Fascist and Nazi ideals was generating andreflecting the possessing energy, especially through the group mind and seen inthose emotionally manipulated and invocative mass public rallies, which were similarin effect to certain types of magical ritual.There were two main ways in which peoplereacted to the social change occurring.One was to collaborate with it, being excitedand thrilled by active participation in a national resurrection, irrespective of some ofits hidden darker aspects.The other way was to be apathetic and passive, allowing itto go on all aroundt hem, feeling insecure and unable to have any influence even ifthey disagreed witht he dominating group.What became paramount in this square was the stimulation of the unconsciousnational mind and emotions by Pluto, which overrode the more intellectuallyidealistic mind quality of Uranus [ Pobierz caÅ‚ość w formacie PDF ]
