The mass consciousness of the planet is at a low point. Not only are people operating at a low consciousness but even those who are more evolved are at a more depressed level. It feels like this depression is beginning to strike out with more anger. Depression surfaces from anger turned inward.

Saturn/Pluto Transits
Those of us that follow astrology shudder when we think of Saturn transits…or panic when Pluto inches toward a major area of our chart. Both planets have dark, fearsome reputations and this year we have seen how their conjunction in Capricorn in mid-January coinsided with the start of a prolonged period in many societies of personal and financial hardships. We’ve witnessed an enforced (Pluto) pause (Saturn) to everyday life — a lockdown with much of the world “temporarily closed for renovation”. With these two conjunct this year (2/19 – 11/20), this has been the most extreme time of the transit.
