Proserpina in Libra
Pavel Globa. Planets in the Zodiac Signs
1918 – 1989, 65 years. Here, Proserpina is in the domicile of Venus and Chiron, in the sign of Saturn’s exaltation, in the sign of the Air element. This position is a symbol of the transformation of human relationships. What seemed unshakably stable—marriage, parents, family, habitual social and international relations—all explodes. At this time, new laws and international law emerge (Libra symbolizes legislation), as well as a new attitude toward them. Before 1917, the world was homogeneous. After 1918, it became like unstable scales, where neither pan could outweigh the other. Global conflicts arise, constant demands for peace and justice, and constant violations of false equilibrium. The concrete actions of leaders contradict their statements. However, as long as Proserpina was not in conflict with Pluto, the world wavered but remained in relative balance. When, in 1933–34, Proserpina formed a square to Pluto, the world stood on the brink of terrible destruction. By 1945, the pans of the scales had balanced. In 1984, Proserpina and Pluto conjoined—humanity entered the path of global restructuring. Additionally, a massive gathering of planets in Scorpio and Sagittarius marked an ideological and religious revolution. The influence of Proserpina on the individual manifests in the ability to find a measure of individual harmony, an absolutely objective view, the capacity to adopt any person’s perspective and see life through their eyes. You possess a heightened sense of responsibility and duty. Relationships with others—marriage, friendship—are sacred concepts to you. Your elevated spiritual organization allows you to live the life of all humanity, to find in it material for your own transformation, your own criteria for reassessing art, and for creating new, fairer laws that guide the individual, as well as new humane means for the improvement of others. In the worst case, your consciousness experiences a blending of good and evil; you pass one off as the other—this is the wolf in sheep’s clothing. You shamelessly impose your position on those around you; you are unprincipled, masked by the veneer of the highest principle. You know no limits in justifying yourself, are capable of attributing your flaws to everyone else, and always tip the scales in your favor.

Was in the domicile of Venus and Chiron for 67 years (1918–1984). This position brought about the transformation of human relationships. Everything that seemed unshakably strong collapsed: marriage, family relations, social and international connections. After 1918, the world became like unstable scales, where the pans constantly oscillate. Global conflicts arise, constant demands for peace and justice, and constant violations of fragile equilibrium. New laws and international law emerge, along with a new attitude toward them. In 1933–1934, a square aspect formed between Proserpina and Pluto, and the world, which had been in relative balance, stood on the brink of terrible destruction. By 1945, the pans of the scales had balanced. In 1984, Proserpina and Pluto conjoined—humanity entered the path of global restructuring. The influence of Proserpina on the individual revealed itself in the emergence of an objective worldview, the ability to appreciate another’s perspective. Such a person possesses a heightened sense of duty and responsibility, the capacity to live the life of all humanity and find in it material for their own transformation. In its lower expression, Proserpina brought to the individual a blending of good and evil, the ability to impose their viewpoint on others, and unprincipled behavior masked by the appearance of the highest principle.
