In numerology, the year 2010 collapses down to equal the number 3.
Yes, the word is “collapse”. The word could be “reduced”, but the bottom line is that it is a “deconstruct”. With the Pluto in Capricorn transit just getting started, and a good 12 to 14 years to go, look for even more “collapsing”. The beginning of the Pluto in Capricorn transit is still about the breaking down. Out of the ashes will come the rebirth part of Pluto.
Several transits that started this year were: Mercury retro, confusion in communications, Mars retro in Leo, plans put on hold making it hard to move energy forward that shows any results.
As a drive around this town indicates, large businesses are closing down, as well as more empty smaller shops and stores. Everyone quickly driving to get where they need to be may not notice the changes until one day they notice that the block they pass daily, appears to be, a ghost town.
So what good can the three year bring? Creativity! Creativity means just that. What does one do in the arena of creating in a three year, especially if you are an owner of a business?
When things are breaking down it might mean trying more creative ways to keep a business afloat, it also could mean looking at changing the business to reflect current trends, and/or, it could also mean shutting a business down and looking for a creative way to move forward with your life. Either way, the key word here is Create! Flexibility in a three year is a must, as rigid patterns will cause distress for yourself and others around you.
What about starting a new business in this economic climate?
The answer is: Go for it! Do your research. What is needed now? Pluto in Capricorn means that people will spend their money, although they will want to try and hold on to it as much as possible. Getting someone to let go of their money will depend on what age group, what they value. People will spend money on the things that they “deem” to be of value. Capricorn represents traditional values and as other transits during this year come into play to help bring in the new paradigm, observe how these values might be shifting and changing.
Begin with the basics, as people need food, shelter and clothing. Beyond the basics, people will spend cautiously. In an environment of such doom and gloom most people will want to be uplifted. Music, Art, and Entertainment will be a focus as Jupiter in Pisces begins its transit for the coming year. On the positive side, Pisces, ruled by Neptune, rules all things of illusion and dreams. Neptune also rules deception, alcohol, drugs, water, oil and gas, and hiding out from reality in all of its many forms. Depending on the current desire for a positive outcome, it can rule spirituality and religion.
Eclipses in 2010
Solar eclipses bring about external events from internal sources which we are not aware of. They also shine the light on that which you have succeeded in, and then can help others with.
Lunar eclipses can accelerate those internal emotions which then stimulate changes in our feelings regarding people and/or situations in our lives. On the flip side this can also show you what are learning from others.
The way to think about any eclipse is that it activates change; in order for new growth to manifest, we must release what no longer works for us.
Important eclipse dates this year are :
January 15 - Solar Eclipse @ 25° Capricorn
July 11 - Solar Eclipse @ 19° Cancer
Please also take into account any “blue moons” occurring this year as the one that occurred in January, these trigger earthquakes such as the one in Haiti. If you live in an earthquake prone area make sure that you have all that you need if your area suffers disruptions.
Mercury Retrograde dates
