Just prior to the Summer Solstice, we had: June 11 Pluto Retrograde
re-enters Capricorn
Favours more conservative,
strict, rigid tendencies
Brings a period of focused, balanced productivity
Overall, the
chart tends to indicate a favourable, productive Summer, with good potential
for imagination and creativity, balanced with practicality. The passions and
enthusiasms could tend to get out of hand and a Pluto opposite Moon
would tend to make things uncomfortable by being too restrictive and bringing
up deeply-repressed emotional issues.
Some spectacular
water disasters, a Greek migrant boat sinking with 700 casualties on June 14,
and a Sub-Marine exploring the Titanic wreckage had an accident causing five
fatalities, June 18. These could be related to Saturn In Pisces, also Pluto on cusp of Aquarius
& Capricorn, I would relate it also to Mars square Uranus, June 26, &
fading Mars opposite Pluto-themes: meltdowns, watery depths, unusual, tragic
Another Saturn in Pisces related-theme
of water regulation awareness occurred on July 11 when a growing list of
countries have also called for a halt to deep-sea mining, at a key moment for
the fledgling industry as the International Seabed Authority (ISA) meets to
determine rules for mining
Around June 24, reports began to emerge of major militia
conflicts in Sudan,
which broke out in April.
A third very volatile month-long Mars aspect in a row occurred with
was Mars opposite Saturn, July 20. Circumstances or people tend to thwart our
will, feelings of resentment or frustration; difficult to assert ourselves;
action & expressing our urges blocked; difficult to complete tasks. There
was also Sun opposite Pluto, July 21, bringing issues of power and competition.
Various incidents around that time included: A mass
shooting in Australia, a third indictment for Donald Trump, a big Tornado in
South Carolina, a UPS and Hollywood writer’s strike occurred, as well as major
Russian attacks in Ukraine and a big heat wave in the US.

On July 17, Russia suspended its participation in a crucial deal that
allowed the export of Ukrainian grain, once again raising fears over
global food supplies and scuppering a rare diplomatic breakthrough to
emerge from Moscow’s war in Ukraine.
Record Forest Fire outbreaks in Canada were announced, July 24
There was a military coup in Niger on July
25.
On August 4, Ethiopia declared a state of
emergency due to militia conflicts.

away on July 21.

away on July 27.
Singer/songwriter and social activist Sixto Rodriguez passed
away on August 9.
