Astrology, Spirituality & Alternative Healing

I would say that both you and poster #1 have a part of it right, I may have another part to add.

I'm only going to address the Pluto thing.

Pluto just re-entered Aquarius this past week and will stay there for some twenty-ish years give or take. When Pluto become activated, like entering a new sign, it brings attention to everything Pluto represents through the lens of the sign it enters with some residue from the one it's leaving. Pluto represents death and rebirth, the life cycle completed/"permanent" change. This applies to everyone on a global level and a personal level.

What I see as the main point about the transition is that it begins a "time of comeuppance" while also one of seeking balance in all things. This could be our species' last chance to make the corrections we've been avoiding for centuries. We'll lose a lot of people and other species but we could make it if we heed the warning signs that are bashing us over the head.

For the country, this could be where we, as a country and perhaps other nations will experience the same, can purge the corruption and finally correct the path we're currently on. Purging is a feature of Pluto's influence so expect it on many levels, what we decide to purge will be telling.

This is not exclusive interpretation but could add to the mix.
