Astrology for Capricorns

The Age of Aquarius is upon us. Well, almost. March 12, the transition begins; by April 5, it is over. Where are we now? In the Middle, the Middle. If you are a Capricorn, you should start to laugh, and laugh.

Look at the cockroaches run.
You can see fear in their eyes, on television. The big names, the big people, going down, going away. The rich ones are taking their carpet bags of money and heading for their two hundred acre farms. Too bad their money is in Confederate scrip. Fiat currency of the declining power. Mortgage backed paper, municipal bonds unglued by pension shortfalls, and arugula on sale the day before someone takes a geiger counter into the produce department.

April 5, 2011. Neptune enters Pisces. Called the Earth Shaker in Greek mythology, Neptune was soon pushed aside by the pushy cultists of Athena in Athens. They wrote the history and depicted Neptune in his republican or conservative nature. Neptune is also associated with bounty from the sea (the fish that the vegans do not eat), victory at sea, and the richest bottom lands formed around rivers and deltas. From this date until Neptune exits Pisces some decades hence, Neptune will always be the ruling planet, single, or in a team. So, pay attention to the people born under Pisces around you. They have the ear of the Earth shaker. If they want ketchup, give them ketchup.

The three generation planets are now enthroned in their new kingdoms for the next decade: Dread Pluto in ambitious (not adaptable) Capricorn; Inventive Uranus in clever Aries; and Neptune ruling all from Pisces. The Aquarian age begins. Are you a remnant from the past? Then you have the mark, and will be returning to your twentieth century; everyone else marches on into the future.

You are best advised to re-read your history of religious movements out of the last two thousand years. It does not matter if you believe; it matters if your neighbors believe. Neptune has an element of secrecy (especially if aspecting the Moon), can celebrate treachery (if aspecting Mars or Saturn), and is associated with illegal drugs (with Venus), the black market (with Mercury), and the public arts (with the Sun). What do your neighbors believe? Your sharing the continent with Pastor Jones makes you enemies on other continents; and then again, pissing off guys like Pastor Jones might be a lot worse in the long run.

Aries: You will be given control of the new technology and new machines of our new sudden future. There will be no instructions, of course. There will be a renaissance in the power sources of our culture, and you will be the Medici. You will be forced into action by the plebian demands of capital. The rich, the powerful, the underworld, all will cross your path. For self undoing, you will be tempted into a false belief that you are separate from the ocean in which you swim.

Taurus: Sudden changes and developments elsewhere will disturb your peace of mind, and worst of all, your financial plans. Of all the signs, you will retain the most wealth in the coming age … other signs will lust for power (Capricorn) or order (Virgo); even if your path to Manor and chieftainship is strewn with broken foes and burnt competitors. You can call down the forces of an avenging angelic host: the pagan gods of this age look upon you as friend. Under the influence of drink or dope, you will make merry in the halls of Asgard. The Heroes there like the way you party and will come to your assistance.

Gemini:
You will be constantly driven to action by the forces of stagnation. How it irks you, this constant diet of dumb and dumber. The ability challenged will grow to fear you. Your wit and agility will bring them down, and you will decorate your hall with their trophies: splintered shields, notched swords, and nailed helmets. You will be blessed through the friendship of the best in our culture through the medium of the internet.

Cancer: You will mourn the loss of some of the better parts of the Old Age, and be the person chiefly responsible for preserving the legacy of the past. The forces of capital will block your ambitions, and offer you up wealth and power in exchange for your soul. Being clever, you are advised to rent your soul, and not sell it. Sudden developments in technology and materials will give the advantage back to you in a eye blink. Stay true to your self, and you will win in the poker game with Hades, especially when he is distracted by a call on his cell.

Leo: The unexpected and the sudden changes all act to make you look better, have more, and enjoy it all. Celebrate the strike of lightning, it means more for you. Money will come to you from the sea, but the sea could also take your life away. If you go to sea, make sure you are carrying a sword, for although your life is in peril, you will obtain victory in combat. In victory, you will obtain recognition, acclaim, and fame. You will find that gold has weight to it, and requires work, sweaty work, to move around, just like lead.

Virgo: You are at war with the forces of stagnation. You ooze ability, and they do not. This will be a time for you of expanding skills, evil wizard mechanical devices of your design and use, and the imposition of your vision of Order (and good government) on all around you. The forces of money and property will be your willing paymasters and provide mercenaries. Look to Capricorn and Taurus for your minions. Your enemy will never know who you are, until you tell them in the Underworld.

Libra: Your insights into the Art of War will stand to your good reputation when you are welcomed into the Feasting Halls of Valhalla. Sudden developments overseas, and chronic social problems domestic will oppose you. At times you will be frozen into a stagnant lifestyle; otherwise, strike with your fast attack forces. You will be offered the rank of magister equitum. The time of conflict will be the best in your life. You will be popular, and have fun, meet interesting people, and enjoy yourself.

Scorpio: You will work with and around the forces of darkness. Wealth will come to you out of storms and gentle tropical breezes. When a ship cracks open, it will bring a perfectly sized pair of running shoes to you as you run on the beach. Your patron, the War God, has the latest technology. Paladins and the angelic hosts will have you for their host.

Sagittarius: Your sign is named after the Horse Archer, the most fearsome weapons system of its time. What is the most fearsome weapons system of your time, Sagittarius? That is what you are. Personal wealth will come to you, even if some of the gold coins are radioactive. Your home, your house, will suffer a storm, but also the bounty of the sea. The latest weapons you will carry, and you will face. You are the best part of Spartan heart of the War Machine.

Capricorn:
Everything is going according to plan. Your personal life is filled with feasting and pleasures of the flesh. The powerful look to you for answers, and make fresh plots with smiles on their faces. Power comes to you, and more still in days to come. But things disturb your money printing: the unexpected changes from war and unrest, and the startling developments in technology. You will be swept away from damnation by service with the angelic host, when that terrible battle comes. Make sure you have plenty of data cards for your camera, and batteries.

Aquarius: The beginning of the Aquarian age begins with a rather Piscean age clash of cultures, much to your distaste. Evil powers struggle for wealth, power, and order, and these act to disturb your sleep, and wet your eyes with their smokes and industrial emissions. None the less, you will acquire a personal fortune, property by the sea, longer life, and the status of ancestor of many, should you choose. You will have the friendship of the greater souls of the Age, even if some of them are meat eating barbarians.

Pisces: People should not disturb you for twenty years. The monsters of the sea are at your command, and all perils of the deep look upon the disdain you direct upon others as a tempting garnish. People who disturb the peace of the library where Pisces reads risk being sucked into a sinkhole. You will have new lime pits for old enemies, and more lime pits for fresh enemies. At other times, your sign will venture out into the world, where all new technologies can be turned to your profit. You will make money from the internet.
