From 2008 in regards to assimilating trauma / Pluto transits – shell writes on Will It Take 10 Years To Assimilate:

“Is that kind of like when something happens in your life that is painful, and you think you’ve learned a lesson and will be better equipped to handle it the next time around; yet when it happens again, it still hurts like hell and you have a brain fart as to how to handle it productively? And the second time around, you have baggage from the first time which only adds to the backache? Yeah, I could see how maturity would be the only thing to help. But that only goes so far, huh?”

From June, 2008 – Introduction to my idea that parenting is in crisis. Pluto in Capricorn…

Anyone else willing to cop to struggling with this?

Speaking of families where one or more members are invisible, projected upon, or forced to carry the shadow for the group, I am trying to improve my level of understanding and acceptance of this. Because as common as this is, to me it’s a foreign culture.

My family is very overt. Everyone knows who everyone is because every single one of us has a strong Moon Jupiter signature and we will tell you who we are.

Now if you misunderstand us, we will tell you again with our voice raised. We’ll be loud at first and then louder.  If continue to misunderstand, we will probably pick up a brick and hit you with it. Continue reading The Psychology And The Shadow Side Of Families

“We’ve been looking at old pictures recently and I think _______ might have been happening to, Vid,” I told my husband. “It looks like this may be going on in the picture. I’d have never dreamed it at the time. I guess I’ll ask him.”

“You think he remembers that?”

“Vid?” I asked, considering the fact he’s a Taurus which is famous for their memory. “I don’t know. If he doesn’t, I would just as soon remind him now. Because if this was going on and he’s forgotten, it’s still in his psyche somewhere. Best to dig it up now and deal with it because I’ll tell you what happens if you don’t. You wind up, 30 years old, setting up circumstances that include elements of whatever it is you’ve repressed so that you can remember the thing and try to integrate it. This can cause all kinds of problems; it can derail you so I do think I am going to show him the pictures and ask what he remembers.”

It’s been awhile but when Pluto first headed into Capricorn, I was talking about this in terms of a natural chart. Astrologese aside, I see Pluto’s transit through Capricorn as a Pluto transit to the Moon transit for the entire collective.  Basically we’re going to dig up our roots this decade, for good or ill but eventually for our own empowerment.

My son has transiting Pluto conjunct his IC which is the equivalent of a Pluto Moon transit.  It’s only once every 60 years (give ot take) that Pluto crosses an angle of a person’s chart and it is always profound.  In this case Vid has Pluto transiting in hard aspect to natal Moon, simultaneously so the situation is even more extreme.  He’s also got Saturn and the stellium in Aries in play here but I am putting that aside to focus on the Pluto Moon element.

I was talking to my husband about plans (Capricorn) and my feelings (Moon) about my trip home.  My husband and I visited Arizona a few years ago but the trip was more about him than it was about me.., and about us, since we met there.  We visited his family and his friends. We visited some and ate at some of the places we did when we were teens but this trip will be very different as it is entirely focused on my family.

If you’re new around here, I wrote a series of posts over the last years that chronicled the Pluto transit to my Moon.  If there are 100 posts on Neptune conjunct the Midheaven, there are at least that many on Pluto’s transit to my Moon and probably more.

Most the post were a horror to write but I felt I had to do it for my own sake and survival.  I know a lot of people bonded to me via those posts and I don’t know what to say about that.  Others fed and I don’t know what to say about that either.

I’ve written extensively about Pluto transits to the Moon, offering my personal experience with the transit. I love these deep topics even if they rip my heart out and haunt me so I’m here with a story today.

denamaria, a regular on the blog and a friend of mine had a hysterectomy last week.  She is having a Pluto Moon transit so surgery in regards to the womb is textbook. This is the end of her childbearing, very obvious manifestation.

I thought she may be dead for a couple days there; you can see the story as it unfolded on the boards over the weekend. But as it turned out, she was fine and she called me today with a story.
