Russia attacks Ukraine

The world has rapidly plunged into uncertainty. The risky buildup of opposing military forces in Eastern Europe is simply breathtaking. The possible consequences of a wrong decision may be catastrophic, to say the least. However, we know how many obstacles are generally in place between the current state of affairs and a hypothetical large-scale conflict. Hopefully, diplomacy will win beyond Ukraine’s borders.
Nonetheless, modern Russia’s Saturn return seems to have reinforced the country’s willpower, as well as its territorial ambitions. On the other side of the planet we find a broken America, a nation going through its own Pluto return and second Neptune opposition, grown too old in its current political form. No doubt we are assisting to the manifestation of Biden’s ‘Plutonian’ mission. Last year I published an analysis of the latest US Inauguration chart, which shows prominent Pluto at the Midheaven. Also, the unstable Fixed square between Saturn-Jupiter and Mars-Uranus is offensive, warring, confrontational, erratic. In 2020 I wrote about the fact that 2022 would most likely end up being a critical year for this presidency. The Inauguration’s progressed Sun moving towards Saturn is something we should not overlook.

Interestingly, Zelensky’s natal Midheaven is reported by Astrodatabank to be at 20 Aquarius, in opposition to his Moon. That means that Saturn is about to align with those. A massive indication of the crunching force which currently looms upon Zelensky’s shoulders, as well as the unprecedented focus the rest of the world is directing towards his country.
The coming Mars-Pluto conjunction may be critical for the US and the rest of the world. As I wrote months ago, paradoxically it may open up a whole new chapter in which we find the American question more worrying that the pandemic. However, I hope that the next New Moon of early March will show a traditionally benevolent face, being so Jupiterian. Its Piscean signature may bring a diplomatic solution, or at least a promise of some sort. However, Jupiter often overinflates everything it promises.

Last year I wrote a lot about the current Mars-Pluto cycle, and how the arrival of the new conjunction at 27 Capricorn would represent a new chapter in this whole story of social dismantlement. The area of the zodiac which Venus, Mars and Pluto are currently moving through is the seat of the 2020/2021 crisis. A massive global, social, political, ideological metamorphosis has been taking place for a couple of years, and we are now getting ready to step into new territory. That’s what scares the entire world right now, the darkness which lies ahead of us all.
