When the internal and external fronts are finally lost… The bravura dances of Ukrainian politicians who have turned into performers on the volcano of unfulfilled hopes of society after the Revolution of Dignity, and the powder keg in Donbas, stuffed to the brim with the beastly hatred toward Ukraine and everything connected to it. Which explosion will come first? Will both explosions happen simultaneously? Pluto will soon answer this question for us, as on April 18 it turns retrograde in the sign of Capricorn (reversal at 15 degrees) and will remain there until September 23 (directness at 12 degrees). Since Pluto has already passed through these degrees once, let us take a brief look at the 12th degree from which Pluto emerged and to which it will return in September. It was this degree that marked the BEGINNING of not only dramatic but also tragic events of 2014 for Ukraine: the shooting of the participants of the Maidan Self-Defense detachment and Yanukovych’s escape. The reformation of the Verkhovna Rada and the government. Protests with pro-Russian slogans began in the cities of southeastern Ukraine. Crimea and Sevastopol, with the help of the “little green men,” declared their actual separation from Ukraine… At that time, the world rallied around our country. But whatever happens now, 14 months later, Ukraine, I believe, will remain face to face with both internal and external challenges, since the world’s public interest in events in Ukraine, as those of a liberation nature from colonial oppression by Russia and corruption, has significantly declined, to put it mildly.
And here is why:
– Megacorruption continues to drain the life force of the state as new-old officials, closely cooperating with oligarchs, mercilessly plunder Ukraine, inventing increasingly sophisticated schemes for embezzling the state budget and taxpayers’ money;
– Old corruption schemes for self-enrichment have not been eliminated; they have merely acquired new or additional pocket thieves;
– The cynicism of the mutual cover-up among members of these “teams” is uniquely demonstrative in its brazenness and scale;
– The looting by the oligarchy, mostly bound by one chain to the Kremlin, in the sphere of tariffs and prices for the population is off the charts;
– Rising taxes, which strike at the already impoverished segments of the population, reduce their meager well-being, driving many into complete destitution;
– Loud accusations against officials—thieves of the state treasury—of embezzlement and bribery remain nothing but accusations;
– The titanic efforts of the Verkhovna Rada deputies to pass laws that could bring the people of Ukraine closer to European or simply civilized standards of life are futile, since the new-old corrupt executive power stands guard over its own interests;
– The investigation into the organizers and executors of the sniper massacre of the Euromaidan participants remains shrouded in mystery and has long reached a dead end;
– Billions stolen by the “family” of Yanukovych and their accomplices have still not been returned to the state budget;
– Secret “deals” in Minsk only strengthen the positions and military might of the occupiers each time, thereby expanding the geography of the territories they occupy.
What can we expect in connection with Pluto’s return to the degrees of 2014 in the context of 2015? Since Pluto itself governs wars, and in this case it is also under a strong defeat (a square to Uranus), the conversation will be about Ukraine being forced into a harsh choice: either it will win this war, despite having to fight on two fronts simultaneously, or it will cease to exist as an independent state.
This is a difficult trial, first and foremost, addressed to a nation that has thus far lived in the prosperity of self-deception, shifting all responsibility for events in the country onto leaders of various stripes and sizes, without much concern for how they came to be marked in such a way or from what reserves they draw funding for their promotional campaigns with billion-dollar budgets.
Now, as Pluto moves retrograde through the same degrees it traveled in 2014, it will be interested in bringing absolute clarity and sharpness to each person’s understanding of their role and even purpose. The fog and deception cast by the natal retrograde Neptune, spread by experienced political technologists over a significant part of society, will be completely dispelled. And since retrograde Pluto implies deep transformation, it will do this carefully, meticulously, and without ceremony.
Given that Pluto tolerates no uncertainty, it will create conditions that force everyone to draw conclusions about peace and themselves, overturning not only consciousness but life itself. This will apply to large social groups of people. Against the backdrop of escalating social disharmony and imbalance, the flaws in all structures, systems, and state governance will come to the fore and become obvious. Finally, EVERYTHING secret will become public.
But there is an encouraging aspect. The trine of transit Mars, Mercury, Sun, and Black Moon to Pluto is very inspiring! This is evidence of the protection of Higher Forces, moreover within the framework of world karma! However, this “protection” will only work if certain conditions are met, which are indicated by the Sabian symbol of the 15th degree of Capricorn: “A sociocultural process must look not so much to the past as to the future. Abuse of power (let us clarify: dictatorship, corruption, fraud) can create conditions dangerous to the health and spiritual development of society, especially the new generation. Therefore, the destructive tensions of social life must be neutralized.”
And finally, I will quote Yuri Kasyanov, whose words seemed fitting here: “God has left this perishable world. The Son of God, having risen, no longer descended to Earth, where poverty, deception, and war reign. There is no point in dying repeatedly for those who do not wish to be human.” It is worth reflecting on this. There is still time.
