capricornI am going to keep harping on this because I am pretty sure I am right about something - That is that Pluto’s transit through Capricorn is going to shake people at their foundation and unleash powerful feelings of insecurity. As people come unglued one of the ways people will cope is by partnering and I believe this drive has already been shook loose for many.

I am working with clients who have various problems in their relationships they are highly motivated to solve. I am also someone who has problems in relationships that I am highly motivated to solve and I struck me today that every single client I have that is focused on this issue has strong Capricorn. I think this means the goats are the ones highly sensitized to what is ahead.

You know how animals clear out before a tsunami hits?

Dr. Beetle writes

“The recent Tsunami in December 2004 that devastated parts of Indonesia, Thailand and Sri Lanka renewed interest in the seeming existence of a sixth sense in animals. One of the devastated areas was an animal reserve at Yala in Sri Lanka with monkeys, leopards, buffalo, elephants and 130 species of birds. But after the Tsunami and the unfortunate death of many tourists, virtually no animal carcasses were found…”

( Read the rest from Dr. Beetle)

goatI think goats (Capricorns) are the ones to watch now. These are the people who have a heads up, something beyond their usual generalized fear and when they move you might be well advised to move with them.

Anyone else had an inkling along these lines? Noticed an increase in your drive or desire to secure your position or batten down the hatches?

Elsa- Yes definitely. Battening down the hatches, waiting, watching, listening, putting my ear to the ground to see if I can hear hoofbeats. People will need help and support from family, friends or complete strangers or will be offering it to others. Standing on your own two feet sure, but not alone. Sharing stories, sharing resources, looking for ways of doing things that have been forgotten to some extent while Pluto was in Sagittarius. I really appreciate that you are talking about this and look forward to hearing more about this from you. Do you have any other ideas? Any clues or missing pieces?

I am definitely preparing and have been for quite some time. Get some storable food you guys at the least.

My sister and I keep thinking about what we are calling “karma–geddon” and she is psychic as hell.

My next step is getting to know my neighbors better.

A lot of people have a weird & hinky sense of this not just Caps but I do have Cap.

If I am wrong (I have Neptune too), well at least I’m being a grasshopper and not an ant.

In other news I just heard a goat! One of my neighbors must have gotten one. That is hilarious OMG. I’m on the laptop out on the porch.

The goat says hi I guess. I hope they’re not going to eat it.

Thats so funny Anon, my neighbors just bought goats! First a male with horns (that cocks its head at you when you talk to it.. so sweet) which Ive been calling “Billy” (come to find out they named it billy.. go figure). Then they got a mama & a baby.

I dunno if im battening the hatches any more so than normal.. Im pretty much always prepared for nearly anything at anytime, and Ive been trying really hard to improve my relationship for yearssss now.

I have Saturn in Capricorn. Sun and Mercury in Gemini and I am having such a hard time expressing to others the raging insecurity I feel deep inside. But, I keep moving forward. For me lately that means focusing on the basics. Eating when hungry, sleeping when tired, saying nothing when I’m in doubt or don’t know, etc, and most of all, being kind to myself. The amount of negative crap swirling through my brain is astounding when the insecurities tug and pull. Right after the mercury retrograde I got snippets of proof that much of what I was worried about wasn’t coming from outside myself at all. I was debating my worth with myself! Geez. I intend to use this realization going forward, because yup, I am doing a lot more with a lot less, and that’s just the way it is.

I have Cap rising and have always had massive amounts of insecurity. The way I find I’m inclined to deal with it lately is by working on my house, which I guess is a pretty literal way of battening down the hatches. I have problems with relationships but I am not currently motivated to solve them.

Getting back to basics is the message I’m contemplating a lot these days. Back to the basic me, the basic needs, the basic vitality required for being basically decent!

Not so much fear as much as taking stock: what’s on hand vs. what ought to be on hand–in every area of my life.

Saturn in my 4th, Cap Sun in my 1st: I’m getting grounded in what really me. Actually, that’s a bit liberating–in the best possible way.

On the collective side of life, I am in some ways looking forward to this Pluto/Cap cycle because I see SO MUCH wasted food, emotions, energy–the list is almost endless. These past fifteen years I’ve been dismayed at the culture of excess we’ve built and wondering when the party’s gonna break up. I think we just heard “last call”!

Cap sun here on the degree where Jupiter began its retrograde and yea, the bad luck has hit. Was meant to move in with my partner to live a self sustainable lifestyle as the world out there is no longer supporting the illusion we’ve been employed by. First, partner dissloved on me so its me and my 2 kids. Then, my dog who has always been my burglar alarm - live in S.A. - has started to kill all the neighbours cats - not a good way to arrive into new community at all. So, I have major decisions to make like he must move on out of this reality. Here I am in charge of the tsunami or is it my survival in the face of the community’s tsunami. I am preparing the earth to start my food garden and finding that no matter how uncomfortable life is for me I am good support for those around me going through their fears. Looking forward to December when Jupiter resolves its retrograde and also when PLuto will be in Cap again. There is no turning back anymore.

My MC is in Capricorn and recently, since last year, all I can think about is repairing my relationship with my dad. Didn’t think of Pluto until I saw this article. On top of that, I’ve just quit my job - a professional one in a foreign country - because I want to get back to my roots big time. Want to move back to the USA. And as far as getting another job in the same industry, well, part of me just wants to temp again like I did earlier this decade, or waitress again. I want a break from all of the striving of the past 10 years or so. Is this Pluto stuff????

My experience has been that of giving and receiving forgiveness. A woman that has despised me for years because she thought I got her fired from her job (I absolutely did not) just suddenly let it go and was nice to me. I also forgave someone, maybe that why I was forgiven.

Yeah, had a breakdown this morning.
Last night my mother ever-so-kindly pointed out to me that my husband is always traveling, so his chances of eventually straying inevitable. Thanks mom.
Truth is I am insecure about that all the time. But what am I gonna do, divorce him because he might cheat on me someday.
The clincher is that we are looking to buy a piece of land out by the lake, and save very wisely for the next few years until I graduate college so we can build a dream home that we will grow old in. I’ll be sad about selling the home we live in now because it was our first home.
But my point is, the fact that we are projecting what our plan is in the next few years has me thinking…….a lot can happen in the next few years. What if he does stray? What if I get tired of him traveling so much (we’ve been doing this the past 7 years)? What if I fall out of love? What if he does?
I am feeling incredibly insecure about it lately. He is a wonderful man, so I don’t know where it’s all coming from.

Yes, I have been thinking about this for a long time. I have Capricorn in Jupiter in my 3rd house. Over a decade ago I heard a Native prophecy that instructed everyone to stockpile enough food and water for everyone in their family to use for SEVEN YEARS. And I have been working very hard for the last eight years to get to a financial level where I can do that, but the financial part seems to elude me, so far.

I have myself witnessed the behavior of animals when bad weather is coming - they’re just gone. We get some bad storms out here on the No. Plains and it’s really eerie when you go outside to see what the sky is doing and it’s so totally silent. That’s when I know it’s time to head back in and put on a pot of soup, check the t-paper,drinking water, coffee and tobacco supply and mix up a batch of bread dough.

And shell, as a person who’s been there, done that, and gotten the T-shirt, I sure feel for you that’s a heckuva place to be. But I think this is one time you shouldn’t listen to your mom, no disrespect to her intended. I just don’t think it’s inevitable. And I also think you can grow away from your current state of mind - it doesn’t always have to be like it is now.

Shell, I respectfully disagree with your mother. IMHO, It depends on your husband’s chart and the natal promises contained in the chart. Traveling doesn’t matter, a truly loyal man will never cheat, and cheater does not need to be a traveler, he will find a way to cheat…wherever.

My ex-husband was a pilot and he was gone a lot, I enjoyed my alone time & never worried about him cheating even though he had a face that lured women like mad. He wore his wedding ring very prominately displayed, and every time he lost it windsurfing, he went out and replaced himself, each time with a thicker band. Since he was not going to cheat, he did not want to have to deal with the come-ons.

Don’t let your mother get you all worked up for no reason, eh?

See, Natasha, one never knows about these transits. I thought Jupiter was always supposed to bring ‘good’ stuff, but that is not necessarily true for everyone. By the way, I have been through what you are going through with your dog when I had siberian huskeys. The neighbor had a gazillion cats, more everyday, and they were always shitting in the sand that would accumulate on our side of the seawall, but anyway, when they ventured into the fenced in area, there was not a damn thing I could do if I didn’t see it. Not only embarassing, but also a royal pain in the ass. I feel for ya!

I agree with Loonsounds and Peppermint, Shell. It can be inevitable that you’d miss your husband while he’s away, or inevitable that you realize that you love him exponentially while he’s away, but it doesn’t have to be inevitable that he screws up while you are temporarily apart. Perhaps your breakdown came from finally admitting your fear? (I have Capricorn Moon as well; this is why I’m suggesting this).

“a truly loyal man will never cheat, and a cheater…will find a way to cheat”

Loonsounds - absolutely. I’ve always believed the same. Cheating, and other behaviors lacking in integrity, are a function of internal values not external circumstances. What’s inside will always find a way out, regardless of anything else.

Shell - This belief has always made me feel secure. It is really freeing, and you never ever have to worry about creating and keeping the right circumstances to prevent the ‘inevitable’ from happening. It’s not inevitable - it’s either in the person or it’s not. I can tell you that I’ve never cheated on anyone, and have no interest in it whatsoever. It’s not part of me, so no matter where I am or what I’m doing, no partner of mine ever has to wonder.

Hell yeah, Elsa. I’ve been feeling this way, “beyond the usual generalized fear” for a year now. There’s a need to take responsibility, get down to basics / consolidate resources, set records straight, address unfinished business. Any bad decisions could cost more now than they usually would. It’s serious business these days! Pluto in Capricorn is a potent combination.

Not strong Cap by any means, but I’ve got Cap on the DC and I’m partnering with a Sun-Saturn. So Pluto is on my DC and opposite my Mars and it’s evident from the epic legal/psychological battle I’ve been locked in for over a year.

So, I read your recent re-post about the mom with the Pluto transit to her T-square, and I have not been able to stop thinking about your line “super yin.” Everyone (including my Mars) wants me to fight a yang battle and it ain’t working.

So if you get in the mood to write more about the concept of “super yin” , how to be it, and if everyone can use it to survive a Pluto in Capricorn tsunami, I would love to read/know more.

Thank you guys, for your kind words. I know my mother is speaking from her own life experiences, her mother’s life experiences, her mother’s mother’s life experience, and so on. The family hasn’t had much luck with this, obviously.
I’m usually very good at keeping a positive attitude about it, but it’s my external circumstances that are bugging me, although I probably shouldn’t let it (my mom, her two best friends who BOTH are having marital problems from infedelity, MY best friend who just became separated because her husband strayed, not to mention I live in the largest military town….and let me tell you, frequently you can open the daily newspaper and see that another person has snapped and killed their spouse, and/or kids, and/or self when they found out their SO was cheating while deployed. It seems to be all around me right now. It’s just bearing down on my psyche. Hopefully it will pass soon.
Thanks again, I enjoy all of your company :)

Yep. I’ve always felt like I *should* set up a home and put some roots in the ground, but for the first time I’m actually doing it.

I’ve definitely got the feeling its all going to be ripped up though, wayyyyyyy more so than usual.

Shell, my husband joined the Army when he was 26. We had a baby under 1 & 1 on the way. Went to basic, AIT then was deployed to Bosnia. 15 months total he was gone & I never once worried about him cheating. Part of it is just his nature, hes very loyal by nature. Part of it was the fact that I have been cheated on in the past (ex boyfriends) and Ive learned that you just cant control that stuff (control is an illusion anyway) because hes going to do what hes going to do. Checking up on him and trying to find evidence that he is (or isnt) cheating just drives a person insane (BTDT). Its one of those transcendence things Elsa talks about.. I had to just give it up, let it go & know that if he did cheat, it had nothing to do with me - and everything to do with him.

Dolce, Your comment really resonated with me; in fact, it sounded as thought I could have written it!

In the last couple months, I came home, back to the suburbs where I grew up. I want to only date people in this area and make my life here with my family and friends (roots). For anyone who knows me, that is a huge and startling statement.

I am making peace with my parents. Loving them “despite” -

I am healing my past drama with bad relationships. And learning how to love, to give, to transcend.

I bought freaking health insurance! (I never had it in my life.)

I am doing a cleanse and working out and doing yoga and chanting and meditating.

Best of all, I made a list for myself and posted it to my window of the bounds for which I’m aloud to do things and at the top, I wrote “I don’t care what you say.” :)

(I have a small habit of taking on too much and not getting it done).

This has all been very amazing.

Oh, and I should add that I’ve been solving a lot of emotional mysteries about myself - like how I work. Getting myself a little more :)

I’m also paying off debt and being a better friend!

Not sure why all this is happening astrologically except to attribute a good deal of it to being here on Elsa’s site and talking with Elsa.

I really feel like I’m coming into my own, and growing up (at 36); I feel like a bona fide “late bloomer” (which I guess is not unusual for a cappy chick).
