Today we take a new look at some factors that have impacted everyone on Earth since 2007, and continue to put major pressure on every element of our existence now in 2012 and into the future.
Today I’ve combined and re-written two articles from 2007-2008 that outlined some key factors in what we went through that spun us all into the current weird reality of Uranus square Pluto. As I said in the original intro to this article, "one thing's for sure - the next several years we'll see a hot time on planet Earth, with a lot of changes forcing us all to adapt in big ways.... A new era is upon us, and our positioning is everything."
Many vectors of human life are converging on a crash course with a greater Destiny, where we shall reclaim our Divine Estate regardless of what wreckage happens between now and the coming "Spring of the 21st Century" approaching after the Grand Irrationality passes later in this decade. Each century has 4 symbolic seasons, defined by the 4 25-year periods that make up a century. We have been in the “Winter” of this century since 2000, are now at the mid-point of that “Winter,” and will begin to approach the “Spring” which will be in full swing by 2025.
In this "Winter of the 21st Century," the seeds of the best of what we harvested during last quarter of the 20th century (the “Autumn” of that century) are dormant during the cold era upon us. We are seeing the end of things as we've known them, and in the future we won't be able to take for granted some very valuable and necessary lessons if we are to become reasonably enlightened and cooperative beings in a world that is sustainable.
We are told from ancient venerable sources that humanity will not extinguish itself, nor will life be stricken from this fragile Earth. Of course, due to forces already set into motion within the vast economic, political, and social illusions we've constructed, there will be many major changes helping us to see that we are all far more interconnected than we've thought before now.
So consider this article as a reminder to take a larger view of the possibilities, where we can continue to focus on bringing forth the good rather than dreading the negatives. Hopefully, we can remember some crucial elements of how we can experience what's coming, and get to "the other side of time" with a minimum of upset and confusion.
We now segue into an edited version of the original 2007 article, “What Is Coming in 2007-2008-2009-2010-2011-2012?”
A reader asked a simple but profound question: "Something's coming......I don't know what it is...but it's gonna be........good?" I responded that we’ve been living with so many oppositions (and major squares!) for so long that it's hard to name the bigger process that's happening. We're getting awarenesses and polarizations, but may not have many words to adequately describe what we're all living within.
So we call it the Great Transition, New Age, end of the Mayan calendar, the “end of time,” or any number of other descriptors. It’s definitely a polarized time during these decades marking the transition between the Age of Pisces and the Age of Aquarius. Any period between Great Ages is one of relative instability, where old ideas and ways of living have to change due to circumstances humanity itself has set into motion.
As to whether it will prove "good or bad," I suspect it will a mix of the two, depending on when and where and who. Good and bad are always in the eye of the beholder, and subject to changes as perspectives change. What is good today for some may be bad today for some, or many. Also vise-versa. We mostly can agree that what is bad today for all will be bad tomorrow for all. However, what we believe is bad for us today may be seen as a true blessing tomorrow, if it gets us into gear.
That's why often we are spurred to deal with something we may not want to (but we have to), and are prodded by events to rise to our better potentials. Even when we don't know how something will turn out in the long run, if we persevere it always brings forth some aspect of our creative imagination.
It's all a question of what we're focusing on. We always have the power to re-focus, and turn our understanding to what creates a better life. That what each and all of us have been doing the past several years, whether through challenging circumstances or through new stabilities.
By ancient sources we are told humanity is on an arc of return, and past the depths of its ignorance, though there are a few throwbacks still flailing against history. I believe these times are the last effort for those clutching at a way of life that is already fading, as the vast majority of us do NOT think torture, starvation, violence, greed, and smashmouth politics and economics are part of a desirable or sustainable reality.
Humanity has its problems, but almost everyone in the world has been moved to a much different perspective than ever before in human history. We are collectively at warp-speed evolution, about 120 years into a 500 year cycle and jetting into a new era of evolution.
Think of the way things were framed before the microchip, internal combustion engine, rock and roll, and indoor heated showers. Even if we take a momentary step back, we're still way farther along than our grandparents and their grandparents.
We've collectively stepped over a great divide in fundamental comprehension of electricity, magnetism, matter, light, and how to use these both constructively and destructively. A laser can guide a bomb as well as provide eyesight to the blind. It's how we use what we've discovered that is the greater human necessity.
We are now becoming aware of global issues that transcend nations, and affect everyone on Earth. This is the wave of history, and we have some ability to determine whether the transition into the era dawning after 2020 will be unnecessarily difficult. It will be rough enough, but eventually we will break free of the mindset that is gripping the planet at present. This too will pass.
It's like humanity is the planetary brain, and one part of it has awakened to some much greater possibilities of how to live in this 4 dimensional place we call Earth, while the other part of the brain has a diseased tumor destroying everything it seeks to possess through its desires with no thought to the destruction it has caused. However, eventually we will learn we must work together as we have always learned since the dawn of humankind.
We have grown separate through an illusion that is divisive and exploitive, and this is contrary to evolution. What confronts us is a decision to change focus due to forces beyond our control that compel us to learn how to adapt to future needs.
I am sure it will all turn out to be ultimately "good," since we'll move past the destructive mindsets and emotional toxicity presently plaguing the public health. During this time, many we encounter will still try to frame "success" and "failure" in terms of the old reality systems, whether they are realistic or not.
Since 2007, many of us have found ourselves moving through experiences pushing and pulling us in confusing direction. This has prodded many into a moment to moment practice of remembering that we are Eternals participating in shaping the future by our thoughts, feelings, and deeds in the present, despite the oppositions, polarizations, dualisms, and crashing philosophies and views that are inherently unreal.
Even if many of the dualisms and conflicted philosophies used to be real (or not!) to some degree, as we move through this intense period we are seeing that much we used to believe is no longer real. Everything is giving way to the evolutionary necessities presenting themselves with greater and greater frequency as we all come to realize our connectedness with the Earth we live on.
So relax a little, and to the degree you're able, enjoy the passing soft parade inside the gold mine. We are the trailblazers of a dawning era that will make this one seem like a grand illusion. We just have to stay focused, balanced, of abundant view and generous in our goodwill in living our lives on this beautiful, fragile Earth.
After this era hits maximum weird, it will gradually get better. That will make the process we’re moving through and the goals we’re working toward all the more wonderful through the contrasts to this old dying era.
We're playing for the long haul, which promises so much we've never known or experienced that it will stagger the imagination. Our job is to open the door and greet that which shows us our freedom to be greater than we were.
Since what's been going on astrologically is of major relevance to any thorough discussion regarding humanity’s transition period between 2007 and 2013, here are three articles written in October 2007 that go into considerable detail about the squares and oppositions coming in the next few years. They may shed light on what you’ve been going through and why these past 2000 days. These 3 are followed by 4 more on Uranus in Aries, and its importance in these days, months, and years.

Thanks very much. A little while ago Robert, I was on a website where I can look a various types of charts for free. Of course, my astrologer skills are not super good. I found that my progressed chart has all the angles line up in the cardinal signs! Wow! I was looking cause I knew that my current progressed ac is in the latest degrees of virgo and was curious when I would change to libra ac. So, amazingly in July 15,2015. All the angles line up to 0.00 d respectively!!!! Wow. Has this ever happened to you?

Hi Robert,
Great stuff as per usual, thanks!
btw., I ran across this amazing universe simulation that I thought that you and the community would rather enjoy.

So well put....but yes, when is maximum weird??
Posted by: Elizabeth | April 19, 2012 at 12:01 PM
Well it looks by the comments that I'm not the only one already feeling maxxed out on the weirdness! When does the roller coaster stop?? Thanks for a great article.

Robert,
I have become quite used to the weirdness in the Air, and just take it as the way it has become, and is as it is, at this time and age. What is really Normal is what I ponder, and what really is an Illusion.
Read some of past historical times with Uranus square Pluto. Got quite a lot from that. Read it when first shared, and compared assimilated to the now. With deeper insights into it.
Lots of new ways of a New Age, inventions, breakthroughs, on many levels, and a Higher Way of being is happening right now, all around.
Have Pluto conjunct natal Capricorn Moon and opposition stellium in Cancer, Venus/Mars/Jupiter. Seems to be just hanging and hovering and camping out there, and is really tough to handle at times, yet such a beautiful healing also.
Love the insightful beautiful articles you write and share, thank you much for them.
Love and Light,
Nancy
