StephB writes on Saturn Leaves Libra… 7 years:

You mentioned reflecting on what’s happened in the 4th, 5th, and 6th houses (from the natural chart, right?). But would it be more important to reflect on the last three houses that Saturn has transited in our own chart? In other words, are we still climbing the (natural chart) mountain even if Saturn is actually descending on our natal chart?

StephB - no, it doesn’t translate. The quadrants are defined as shown in the diagram. In other words, houses 5, 6 and 7 so not represent a quadrant.

With Pluto in Sagittarius people enhanced and enlarged their sexual characteristics. With Pluto in Capricorn and Saturn heading into Libra, modesty comes into vogue.

There are some new trends springing up after fashion week in N.Y. and one can guess which signs will hop on which wagons when they shop for fall.

Now it’s true, trends tend to get to the other states a year late at times but with all the inexpensive knock offs we can expect to see some of these trends hit the inexpensive stores right along with the upper line stores!

Lunalie asked about positive manifestations of Saturn / Pluto transits on the boards. I wrote about these two planets squaring off in November, 2009 -  Intense Crush - Dirty Grave.

These planets will also square off, January- February 2010 and again, July - August 2011.  People with planets at the very early degrees of the cardinal signs will be most personally affected but entire collective is going to know all about this.

These days it seems everyone I work with is looking for a settled relationship. If they are in a serious relationship, or marriage, they want to stay in it.

It’s possible this is just who I draw but I wonder if this does not reflect something deeper.

I think Pluto in Capricorn signifies deep insecurity and survival fears in the collective. This would lead people to want to partner so as not to face the hardship alone. It would follow that people with planets are early degrees of the Cardinal signs would be feeling this first.

Is it me or has there been an authentic shift here?

Can you elaborate?

I was pretty sure I was going to come in to vogue when Pluto went into Capricorn and I have. It’s going to be a nice long run for, Elsa P who was born to disaster and crisis. To say I am in my element is an understatement. I know how to navigate… whatever.

I seem to be the only one around here interested in this (yet) but hey. I used sell on ebay long before Meg Whitman came on board, long before there were fees to sellers. Matter of fact I was also a very early user of paypal who (get this) launched with this promise - “No fees forever!  Send money on the internet for free!”

Vivian and I rooted for each other but from a distance because when you are in a whirlwind, sort of vortex it takes everything you have. You just can’t get too near another person’s whirlwind vortex or you’ll get sucked up but you can connect via the eyes so this is what we did and time passed the way it does.

Eventually the soldier moved here and Vivian and I had more in common than ever. We were both with men we loved, who we met when we were teenagers. Both men were ultra-masculine and devoted to their families and while neither of our daughters were healed things had calmed dramatically. We had a few months like that and then Vivian told me her husband had lost his job.

When Pluto transits a sign we see the shadow side of the things the sign rules. For example with Pluto in Sagittarius we saw the shadow side of religion (Suicide bombers and the sex scandal with the Catholic priests), the shadow side of sports (OJ Simpson, steroid use), the shadow side of courts (OJ Simpson again) the press (too many scandals to list).

Truck driving is dangerous. The last company the soldier worked with statistically saw 1/3 of their trucks wrecked each year. Not a day goes by where the soldier doesn’t see dead drivers on the road and when I used to drive to meet him all the time I saw them myself.

There were all those drivers killed on the Oklahoma ice storm we got caught in and on another trip I passed 17 trucks blown over and off the road caught in gusts of wind with their trailers empty. But there is a new and growing threat. People have started stealing trucks with knives or at gunpoint and taking off with the load.
