Pluto in Astrology: Meaning and Significations Explained
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 มิ.ย. 2024
- An introduction to the meaning of the planet Pluto in astrology, and explaining what it means in a birth chart, with astrologers Richard Tarnas and Chris Brennan.
In astrology Pluto is generally associated with power, control, manipulation, intensity, the underworld, taboos, transformations, destruction and regeneration, death and rebirth, making big things small and small things big.
Richard is the author of the 2006 book Cosmos and Psyche: Intimations of a New World View, and he previously appeared on episode 84 of The Astrology Podcast in 2016 to talk about the book on its 10 year anniversary:
• Richard Tarnas on Cosm...
At the beginning of the episode we talked a bit about the recent conjunction of Saturn and Pluto in 2020, how it coincided with the beginning of the pandemic, and how Richard felt about having discussed that cycle in Cosmos and Psyche in retrospect. Some of this was tied into a discussion in episode 254 titled Misconceptions About Mundane Astrology in the Media:
• Did Astrologers Predic...
Later we get into the discovery of Pluto, discuss how astrologers establish the meaning of new planets, and then read through some passages from different astrologers that talk about the meaning of Pluto.
Later in the episode we also touch on how to deal with skeptics of astrology, and how to demonstrate the validity of astrology in general.
We also discuss a new astrology documentary series based on Richard's work titled Changing of the Gods, which will be released next month.

I was the crazy person who sat and watched the whole thing through and currently on my 2nd time watching. Wow. Richard Tarnas. Just wow. What a captivating podcast episode this was. Thankyou Chris for bringing him to the show and finding the best interview, thought provoking questions.
LOL..The crazy person 😲,
We should be friends 😂
I watched it all at once as well. Loved it.
Just finished it all in one sitting. Can't believe how quickly it flew by. Bought 2 of his books on the spot
Also thank you Chris Brennan for just allowing him to speak at length and coming in with perfectly timed steering and visual examples-- this was a perfect interview.
I I I just just wanted you you to be be able able able and and and enjoy yourself too and and I I don’t don’t care care you don’t want want me me anymore anymore and I’m just just just
You Are get your your own card from you you don’t don’t

good luck with the rain lol I love it too lol miyyyyiyI
Tank you but Whats do mean fór transiting Pluto ascendent And first home?
Right?! Chris is the perfect person to run this podcast, not many people can interview with such grace
@@gadvojkuvka9577A transit is movement of a said planet, in this case Pluto. Ascendant meaning the Rising sign; the sign on the horizon at the hour of one's birth. First house is just that, the 1st house of the chart. If someone says their Ascendant - it means their First House of their own chart. My ASC is Leo - for example. Hope that helps you.

Finally. An in-depth discussion and analysis of Pluto without inhibition, apprehension or side stepping. Such a valuable chapter in the archive, thank you.
Amazing episode and I’m only an hour in. Richard Tarnas is single-handedly the reason astrology is such a huge part of my life. What a treat to be able to listen to something this comprehensive
Agreed. His work cemented my belief and changed my life. This interview is a dream come true.

Thank you Chris Brennan for this highly informative discussion with Richard Tarnas whom I was lucky enough to meet. I am excited to see Changing of the Gods which relects the work of Tarnas in his book Cosmo & Psyche. With natal Pluto conjunct my Sun I strive to understand the meaning of this placement still. Rick Tarnas has faciltated a deeper understanding in this interview. Chris Brennan's production of astrological interviews with some of the great thinkers of our age needs to be watched and preserved for the generations of astrologers to come. Bravo Brennan!
Back in the 70's I had my chart done by this new astrologer, Stephen Arroyo in Davis Ca. A few years latter, transiting Pluto conjunct my natal Saturn. I had been teaching kids meditation and some people who wanted to discredit the facility accused me of being a witch. It resulted in me having my life investigated, but in the end I was exonerated and found to be a victim of McCarthyism. I had Arroyo's book Karma and Transformation then, it was my bible, it validated what this Pluto transit was.
Are you female? Sorry you had to endure Macarthyism! Yikes
My brother got killed in a car accident in 73. It sucked. In 75, I believe I gave birth to him, that he reincarnated through me. He was pretty much done after Viet nam. And I felt a need to help him, since he'd helped me survive as a kid. I think it's hardest for survivors of war. I try to work for peace in my own way. It's good to survive and live as long as possible, for me. It saves resources for the planet in the long run, and gives you more of a chance to make this your last life time. Hope I don't sound too pessimistic. Take care!!!
@@janetlee4421 I really hope you're not imposing on your child that he's your brother. Let the child have his own identity without this backstory you believe to be true.
@@ASMRyouVEGANyet no, I don't push it on him, he thought it was pretty cool!
My intuition and or impatience was like I wonder if the astrology podcast posted Pluto yet? Posted 1 hour ago ! I literally yelled in celebration and it’s with Richard Taranas !! This is a dream come true episode!!
This was for me at least your best podcast ever Chris - and one of the most valuable lectures on archetype-informed astrology available. Thank you Rick for being such an examplar of wissenschaft, colleagueship, curiosity, and practice in this field. Thank you both so much.
@2:16:00 love that Richard uses the arts to teach the archetypes. Understanding something on a feeling/sensory level is so much richer than words alone.
I am a Scorpio rising with Pluto in the 1H. I’ve been waiting for this ❤️
I HAVE NEVER CLICKED ON A VIDEO SO FAST!!! WOOT!! Thanks Chris!!
well, I've finally finished the episode and it was amazing Chris. Thank you for all you do for the community.
Brilliant! Thank you, Chris, for letting Richard speak uninterrupted. And much gratitude to Richard for sharing his rich experience, wisdom, and knowledge so freely. I will be returning to this podcast for years to come!
👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you for your majesty. ✨
This is the most valuable podcast ever, with the most profound people ever. 💫
Unlimited blessing to you and everyone involved. ❣️
I have been waiting for this one 🙌 ! So incredibly today I was doing my research on pluto and listening to your episode outer planets and now here it is ! So excited to get into it!
So gooOd‼️
Thank you❤️❌🌺
I’m doing the same right now!
@@louigibeuuk9118 a. We azalea saws
Phenomenal video for both astrology experts, novices as well as anyone that is curious. Well done and thank you for this work.
Brilliant dissertation on Pluto. What a contribution you are both making to a deeper perspective on interpreting Astrology.
Wow, what a gem this episode is. And what a privilege to witness the great Richard Tarnas live!
It is humbling.
I could literally listen to him talk all day. I'm in awe of his rambling wisdom. He feels like a professor that I would have long conversations with and build a thesis study with.
This is probably one of the most inspiring conversations I’ve had the pleasure of sitting in on. Thank you. Not just for the content but also the nature exchange!! Wonderful!
This magnificent video has had deep resonance for me. I was raised by grandparents who had been hidden away during the European Holocaust. They were young children when it began. I recognized the effect of Trump on a large number of our population. That was familiar to me as a warning we were coming into a very challenging time. I began to study astrology more deeply at that juncture. I am not a professional astrologer but an Rn and an artist. Hearing this profound discussion provided me the ability to project what we will be going through and how to better prepare for it.
Great podcast on pluto, to say the least. As Scorpio, with pluto in Leo, in 7th H, conjunct S node and 8th house cusp, have been life long student/experiencer of metaphysics/ spirituality, and abuse survivor. Am finally healing, growing, and surviving exponentially, and I've always thought of pluto as ruler of Scorpio, do not relate to Mars as a ruling planet at all. Not that it's bad, but do not relate to war In a physical way or need for war, even though I finally figured out, I survived things like being strangled to death, and having a baby cesarean without anesthesia, to mars on asc in Cap. I'm into conservation and love preventative medicine. Thank you for this mind expanding podcast! It is "over the moon." You guys really know your stuff! And this is a study that can help mankind to find itself, and there for it's sanity. Hopefully, before its too late. Of course there's wars and rumors of wars. We've always had wars, probably since humans invented tools, and now, with the media, we will always hear about them. God bless and keep you in the light!
Richard Tarnas....one of the last greats still standin'!! And to think of all the times he was out and about in S.B. and that I had a Pacifica library card!!! Like Chris...appreciate 'em while they're here people!!!
A true prophet for our times.
Thank you for this enlightening discussion.
Thank you! This was incredibly illuminating! If I may, I'd like to quote a particularly beautiful part of what Tarnas said... "“There are powerful archetypal complexes associated with the death and rebirth cycle that are so closely connected to the four outer planets… that the understanding of the inner meaning of these planets and the discovery of the outer existence of the planets is happening right at the time as our civilization, species, and planet is going through a death and rebirth crucible of transformation, which seems to me of great significance as if the universe is giving us bread crumbs to home, clues of insight to mediate and navigate this transformative moment we are in as an Earth community, and it shows the Cosmos somehow cares about the Earth and pays attention to it.”
Agreed!
Indeed. I did not get to that part on the podcast, but I often re-listen, this warrants another gander.
Thanks so much Richard and Chris, for this inspiring, so extensively knowledgable discussion💫 I feel from you both such deep rigorous wisdom and also truly touching modesty, which, somehow, touches most deeply the truth of the soul.
These time stamps are so precise and amazing. 🙏 Whoever does the work to sift through and figure out which topics start where, you are my hero.
This is TOTALLY fascinating! A truly packed podcast with information for everyone. Thank you! 🙏
Thank you for showing this wonderful knowledgeable and profound teaching on Pluto. I have so much Pluto and have been working with it all my life. This is wonderfully supportive in going through a massive Pluto transit. Thank you 🙏🏻
A mind blowing episode! Thanks so much Chris for this amazing series with its crowning grand finale with Richard Tarnas on Pluto! I could listen to you two for another 20 hrs - thanks so much for the incredible treasure you keep offering us 💎 🙏🏻
Chris, you do amazing work. Your attention to detail is top level. Thank you 🙏🏽
Perfect timing for me. When I look back at all Pluto Saturn contact in my chart over the past 11 years, I notice that I have been hurt (life threateningly) by others. I will be embarking on the inconjunct in a few months and I got a huge warning today when someone threatened me. This podcast was up on my list when I returned home. I would have never made the connection between being hurt and the Pluto Saturn contact without this information. Pluto Saturn was your fourth segment. I took a 4 hour break after that part because I was so blown away. Thank you so much. I'm sure this information will play a HUGE role in saving my life as I can now make the necessary adjustments to my approach with others. I'll let you know if I survive the inconjunct. Thanks again. :-) PS, In each case, the themes surrounding the conflicts are heavily sexual, violent and power play oriented with threats of death. However, the rebirthing process is unlike anything I have ever experienced. It truly is like a phoenix rising from the ashes. The warning today, even though it was tough for me to witness, could be a lot worse in several months if I don't break this pattern. I love astrology, but GOD is still in charge as far as I am concerned and only GOD could have orchestrated the complicated, intricate and incredible chain of events which happened to me today...all of which led to that one segment of this podcast and my understanding of what is going on around me. Chris, I really can't thank you enough. GOD, I will never be able to praise you enough. Thank you! There is a verse (Psalm 19) in the Bible which states;
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge...Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens he has pitched a tent for the sun...It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is hidden from its heat.
Good to hear you recognize the Creator aspect of astrology that isn’t spoken of much. The evidence is everywhere now and over time.
@@rondasnyder4151 Amen amen amen f😮God hung the stars and the moon and the sun in the firmament. He gifts us with Free Will and when it comes down to it, although he has put a lamp in the heavens that can pull the tides, His Word is final over any prediction or any choice our free wil. All we need do is call on Jesus Christ on His Father, God, ask for intercession and if it is His Will you shall be hesrd😮. No divination, no woo woo new age rites can override the One who has the final say on anything everything going on on earth for He loves us and has blessed us so, amen 😅
Whoa, I can't think of anyone better than Richard Tarnas for explaining the astrological significations of Pluto. That was so enriching and edifying, thank you!
Thank you for this comprehensive video on Pluto as a Scorpio sun I do love Pluto because it forces you to face the dark/ unknown because light cannot exist without dark
As a owner of cosmos and psyche this is a real treat. 🙏 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I am glad Astrology is for the few. For Us that know its true power a tremendous leap in understanding is required. I believe that not only does astrology choose you but teaches one through direct experience. It is magnificently humbling and a deep spiritual maturity is required upon the journey.
I've been waking up when Pluto is on the Ascendant (almost to the minute) for the past week which is SUPER early for me... quietly gathering astrological knowledge for 20 years and I still don't know what this means. At least I think enough about the energy I was feeling wash through me to check the chart for that moment. I sleep by Chris's book and my ephemeris these days. Thanks for all your hard work.
“Epistemologies of the heart” ❣ . This is a human who lives what he speaks and speaks of what is lived. Such a nuanced discussion. Thank you
Boy, have I been waiting for this one since I saw first of the meanings and significations series. I am highly Plutonian (scorpio rising with pluto conjunct ascendant at the exact same degree minus a couple minutes, in the first house). Just started reading "Healing Pluto Problems" by Donna Cunningham this week. Thank you so much for this!!!! The Astrology Podcast is my absolute favorite channel for road trips. :D
Coming back to comment again & thank you guys for putting in so much time for this episode- around 1:24, Richard begins talking about the process of ego destruction- I could not put into real words what has been occurring in my own life regarding this, but I see it clearer after that small segment. It had to be described in a mythic way for it to truly translate to me on a deeper level of understanding. Especially right after listening to the section where he was mentioning someone going through a heavy Neptune transit and being tapped into the untouchable realms messaging as merely a vessel, but barely remembering it- I relate heavily to that and information these days seems to be only penetrate my mind on that ethereal, symbolic way. I also see directly how Uranus blows through, Neptune dissolves, and then Pluto comes in for the final kill. What a brilliant way to look at the process of ego death as I am experiencing it personally in this order and all at once.
For reference I'm currently going thru these transits in the present moment: Saturn return, Uranus trine Uranus (and square saturn), Neptune trine ascendant, Pluto sextile Pluto, Pluto square Sun. I'm 29 and can't believe I'm alive. I wrote in my journal the other night that reality feels like the underworld - I don't remember writing that. I seem to be witnessing hell, walking right through it. Life has become extremely abstract and reality nearly completely estranged to me. Where people say reality I don't know what they mean anymore. I'm not so sure I ever have. Hahaha... uh, cheers.
I’m reading this book too half way thru now
@@LiaBunny93 It was an extremely helpful book! I even went on to purchase some of the Bach remedies suggested for certain traumas. They, among shifts in awareness, have had a profound impact since. I've had vivid dreams of reconciling with abusers and people in general that I haven't been able to forgive for far too long. Pluto has the ability to heal itself in the unconscious and I'm seeing it with my own eyes...
@@heycharise @Charise Anderson Yes those are the facts :)
Whoa there are books?!? Ummmmm....I need more action I already been sitting and in the studious pose much too long
What a lovely and knowledgeable guest and, polite and knowledgeable interviewer. Thank you very much
Incredible how the 1930 discovery of Pluto was smack in the middle of WWI and WWII, some of the darkest momemts of the20th century on Earth..... where major changes took place after each.
What a wonderful interview! I loved what Tarnas had to say about the demotion of Pluto and his concluding comments brought tears to my eyes and reminded me what a special gift astrology is. Thank you, Chris, for making such great astrological content available to everyone.
Born in the 60s Pluto conjunct Uranus part of a Grand Trine in my chart. Learning to live with it. This really helped understand it better. Thank you both! 💓🙏
Me too opposite Saturn, talk about yin Yang and being pulled between the forces in the opposition, just getting to a sort of balance between 10th and 4th houses, pluto conjunct Uranus in my 10th; wildcard Uranus flips me from high powered positions to homelife and back again 😱
Just checked and Biden has a conjunct Pluto and Jupiter if you expand the orb to 12° (which Richard mentions he thinks we should do). Suddenly super intrigued and excited to see what happens in the next 3 years lol
Thank you for this fascinating and timely podcast!!!
This interview has been an amazing gift, I listened straight through. You Men are both TREASURES to the Astrological and Cosmos community. Profound gratefulness!
With both Pluto and Uranus in my first, this is already amazingly relevant. But as I have a Pluto transit in opposition to my midheaven Stellium (including Saturn and the Sun) and it’s pretty interesting times, I value this episode even more than usual. Thanks a million for your amazing work.
Your content has sparked a fire within me for the topic of astrology that probably was always there, but listening to your content has made me hungry for more and more knowledge. and for once I can say not only do I have a true authentic PASSION for a subject, but I also feel like I have an amazing resource to utilize as I continue on the journey. Thank you so much.
The timing of this is perfect- I’m just reading his book cosmos & Psyche !
Always was attracted to the work of Nietzsche & Goethe. Now its clear
They have Sun-Pluto contacts that speak to the Sun-Pluto Conjunction in Scorpio in my chart. 🙌
If these things are happening on this planet , imagine what is happening in other parts of the solar system, astrology isn’t just set up for the human, but certainly there to pay attention and to make a change. So nice that there are humans out there paying attention to some extent. Personally speaking it was a great cleansing of my childhood sexual orientation through my parents that absolutely needed to be released. This is what I love about astrology. I guess the human is not that evolved that’s why it’s happening and possibly to the extreme. It’s all psychological reflective and extremely emotional for the human heart.
Fascinating one which has to be listened over. Your minutes helps a lot to go back. I enjoyed all the examples given along. It helps to anchor the knowledge shared here. The humility of Richard is nice.
A deeply intelligent and profound presentation with a heartfelt conclusion that made me quite tearful…” the Cosmos seeks a discerning partner…” 🙏✨
LOVE! This was such an in depth discussion, thank you both so much. And yeah, Richard Tarnas has to be one of the heroes of astrology, so this was a treat! Thank you Chris for bringing this to us! Indeed, you are sharing so much to the community, and we are so grateful, especially for your sun in pluto taking things to the extreme. It's wonderful! 💙
I was born in 1964, with Uranus ,Pluto in my second house went through the horrible experience of COVID-19 in south Africa as a teacher and stuck in a toxic work place looking for a release and born in India look for a real escape,can you suggest something going to happen in my life. Thanks for Richard and Chris, great revelations.
I am such a fan of Tarnas. Loved his books and refer to them often. He's such a compelling speaker. Grateful for this Chris! ...yes I'm a fan of you too! And loved YOUR book! :)
Great interview and Richard Tarnas waxes Poetic while synthesising and sorting through the rigorous and multi-faceted insights of meaning-making about our Kosmik connections. Well-done you two ...
I am going to have to listen to this a few times so fully absorb. So interesting - thank you !
I have been negotiating Pluto conjunctions to a stellium of 5 planets , some of which are conjunct, since Pluto arrived in Capricorn. Currently exact with my Mars exact conjunction with Moon. I have found myself riveted and transfixed by this exceptional podcast today. Just prior to waking up, to hear it , I emerged from a dream where my old iPad was laying face down with i.d. engraved on its silver surface. Pluto occupies my 12th house and is usually part of my education through graphic details , such as this. I cannot describe the amount of suffering I have encountered in the last couple of years through this emerging transit with Pluto..So I have to thank you both for being a pivotal part in enabling me to glimpse my journey to my reconstruction ! So many points raised here, have helped to demystify and give representation to the immense struggles and sacrifices I am encountering. A very fruitful refreshment lodging, on my journey. Thank you both most sincerely.
Thank You for this whole series! It has been awesome, probably one of my fave‘s on this channel now, and one I would recommend to anyone studying astrology. Understanding the planets in depth is so so valuable.
And wow how incredible to finish this series off with Richard Tarnas, I felt like I was listening to some sort of Royalty or so haha.
Everyone was absolutely great though! I enjoyed all the masters talking about the planets. Truly appreciated every single episode.
Thank You So Much Chris, for providing this for us!
Thank you Chris for this vidéo. Richard Tarnas is such a beautiful person…
I have an ascendant, Saturn, Pluto grand trine. I've been working with those themes unknowingly my whole life. I have watched this video five times in total. I watch it in segments. It's so dense. I've been using it to journal and do inner work. I've worked with my hypnotist on these themes. My inner work has been improving my life so quickly lately. Also the people around me are changing their lives too just automatically. Not everything that seems difficult is terrible
Thank you gentlemen, I appreciate having the privilege of being able to listen and learn from you.
What can you say…a powerful episode!
OMG! Such a fabulous interview! We are honored to be doing a sneak premiere of "Changing of the Gods," followed by a live panel with Rick Levine and other renowned Astrologers, 6pm Saturday, Feb 5, at the upcoming Los Angeles Conscious Life Expo, Feb 4-7th, as part of our "Astrology and Consciousness," track.
Thank you for sharing your astrological wisdom with the collective. I am of the belief that the cosmos reveals the infinite facets of itself based on the spiritual progression and growth of the collective consciousness. We discover what we have proven ourselves ready to discover. 🌅
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Just Brilliant! Thank you so much gentlemen for this terrific discussion of Pluto and Changing of the Gods.
this stuff is so fascinating; thank you for your in-depth analysis. Pluto in Virgo here!
Thank you for finishing this series! I'm creating a magic system partly based off astrological significations on the planets and these videos have been priceless!
I love this thank you Chris for bringing us this interview I loved it!! I have played it over and over again until I gathered the courage to comment!! Wow just wow!! So educational so inspiring 💯🙏💛✨✨✨
I can't wait to watch this about my beloved Pluto! Thank you, Chris !
This was a priceless episode! Thank You so very much to both of You ❤️👌🏻✨👊🏻
I actually couldn’t even believe I was hearing the author of this Book!! Lol, but especially Loved the story with your daughter ❤️
This podcast was fantastic! Thank you! And, btw I did in fact listen to the entire podcast in its entirety in one sitting! 😄 I was too obsessed to quit! Pluto at the top of my chart!
Pluto's power of destruction and transformation is always for the purpose of bringing about a better pattern.
Pluto Forever
I am leo rising, sun conjunct pluto at zero degrees in libra and pluto will soon start transiting my DC…it will be squaring my Venus, mercury and Uranus conjunction in Scorpio. I can already feel the power of it by being empowered and not letting others to dictating me how to live my life. Thank you for this amazing presentation Mr Brennan. 🙏🏻
A real treasure! Thank you!
Stellar interview with Richard Tarnas. Amazing. Thanks for your podcast. WOW.
Absolutely AWESOME podcast, so rich in content, so inspiring and last but not least excellently prepared, as always! Merci Richard and Thanks Chris!
I don't know how good of an astrologer Chris is, but he's definitely the greatest platform of astrological education for the masses... Probably because of his Sun-Pluto conjunction in the 10H (with 9H signification since his MC is in the 11H)... This being his 2H profection year and the conjunction of his nodes.. All power to him for the future.
This was awesome. I loved every minute of it.
Yes, I agree astrologer, Dane Rhudyar was the biggest influence for 1940-60's generations and the transcendental transpersonal astrology opening up the archetypal intuitive spiritual side.of astrology. I was so blessed gifted by being in his small classes in Shambhala bookstore in Berkeley in the 1960's.Louis Acker was the first astrologer I studied with in Palo Alto before Rhudyar He was wonderful as was Betty Caulfield astrologer owner of Boston's Fourth House Bookstore. She was student of Isabel Hickey.thank you, Astrology podcast for bringing on such a great astrologer and teacher, Richard Tarnas, and his great astrological knowledge and archetypal wisdom
Astrology as a gift from the cosmos had me openly crying as I looked out my window at the snow blizzard and spotted an occasional sparrow struggling to fly a few yards.
I put some sliced oranges under the protective branches of my front hedge🍊inviting the sparrows in 🌲
I’m no astrologer but this episode could, in my opinion, make anyone a better person.
OMG! This is SO GOOD!!!! I’m not even an Astrologer! Thank you so much!
“Hopefully our listeners will be listening to this in segments rather than all in one sitting”
Me after sitting for 3 hours and 15 uninterrupted minutes 👁👁
Thank you for releasing this!! What an amazing talk, also, on my birthday so I take it as a free birthday gift!
It is so very appreciated the great quality of this class/interview, thank you very much to both! You are great people and professional’s that enrich our life’s.
Wow, Richard's significations of Pluto are spot on for what is currently happening in the United States with the Pluto return.
WOW! Thank you both.
I really appreciate that Richard still has his Christmas tree up in late January.
I think that shadow version has been going on a lot longer than 4 years. Its been building to a crescendo for the past 30 years and is coming to a caldera type explosion.
Revisited this interview a year + later. Just brilliant. Thank you, Chris, for your skillful presentation of Richard Tarnas' genius on this particular subject especially.
I'm currently in a class at CIIS where Dr. Tarnas is one of our professors! The class is titled "Evolution of Religious Consciousness." So profound....and timely.....We are fortunate to have such an insightful intellectual on the planet at this time.
Holy shit. LUCKY!!!
For those of us, who have experienced the plutonic abyss and been annihilated, and transformed ...this presentation is profound astrological insight at its most brilliant ...
...
😊
Indeed. I moved to my Pluto IC line along the West Coast. My times in Vancouver, Seattle, Los Angeles and San Diego over the last 6 years were fraught with mental, emotional, financial and physical difficulties.
But now I feel reborn and not afraid of anything. I feel like a Phoenix rising from the ashes.
It's a privilege being able to listen to such a mature soul/mind after a life of honest, brave, humble, intelligent digging into the Mystery of Existence. Kind of resonating with such a Cosmic Intelligence, the experience is a treasury. Thank you.
Loving this DEEP dive into all things Plutonian. Hoping that someday the enormous heart-shaped feature on Pluto will be incorporated into our relationship with this archetype in the same way that the physical aspects of the other planets each have qualities related to their astrological interpretations... for example: Mars the “red” planet and the associations that color holds in our collective - passion, anger, warrior, sacrifice etc. Or Uranus spinning on its axis totally unlike any other planet in our solar system. Saturn, the planet of boundaries and edges - with its lovely rings.... Neptune’s totally enveloping oceanic blue ....each planet has physical properties that resonate with how astrologers see these archetypes. It cannot be an accident that Pluto has revealed to humanity, through our own curiosity and mastery of technology that it has a HUGE heart. This must be the archetype saying something important to us as they speak to us thru the language of the physical planets. One more comment regarding how these celestial bodies get named.... was anyone else cringing with dismay when the “scientists” ( ignorant of the power a name can invoke ) decided to let Eris have a seat at the table knowing what havoc we had invited into our collective by doing so? Perhaps I am showing my age but I remember those discussions and my great sadness when the announcement was made.... what fools these mortals be.....
It’s pretty interesting you mention the heart on Pluto. I just read a comment on Reddit the other day about how someone believes that it is not Venus that represents love - or at least “true love” - but Pluto. While I’m not sure the degree of the truth of such a statement, I find it useful to gloss over the areas where such a statement may be wrong in order to find where it is right, to find what the statement’s sentiment is.
This was just riveting, from start to finish. I'll be thrilled to see the film when it is released, and I'm so grateful to have a glimpse of Rick's genius without reading the 600 pp - sorry! After a phd in mind-body science and four years reading Jung, i now have to garden and do artworks instead, mostly! Bravo Bravo Bravo, thank you both for this unparalleled conversation.
SO seriously appreciate this podcast. Mega Pluto dynamics here natally and current Pluto transit to personal planets. This interview invited me to access my deep core, feel less alone during these Capricornian Plutonian times, and restore a sense of inner-home and faith in depth psychology. Words, art, cosmos and wisdom. Thank you both.
how masterful you have to be to give such profund and deep knowledge with an absolute clarity and simplicity! thanks to both of you for this delightful episode, full of wisdom ❤
Thank you guys for a phenomenal show and explanation of the Pluto,😍😍😍😍
I am so grateful for this. Your work changes the world Chris. Thank you. Rick Tarnas is amazing.
I am appreciative of all you share. This is so helpful. I am working through things before my second Saturn return that I did not learn during the first Saturn return. I have some intense placements with my Mars, Pluto and Uranus in my 4th house in Virgo. I always thought family is so important and would defend my family. However, I realize I hid or missed some things that are not positive and I do not need to be accepted or involved with certain family members anymore. I kept trying to get approval from one influential well known parent in their field of work but that parent was never open to me. I realize it is okay to not have approval. It is the parents own childhood wounds that I accidentally triggered but it is not my problem to continue to take on. I don’t need acceptance and am finding my worth now without that parents approval. I have Saturn and Chiron in the 10th house of Pisces. Those placements and some others have been intense and difficult. I have to walk away to be able to live life to its fullest . The parent and siblings that actually think they are God, I do not have to be around or accept anymore. Realizing I have been the scapegoat or doormat in my family is not acceptable and no child should ever have to go through that experience ever. I don’t understand why group dynamics end up that way but should not in regards to any child at all. Parents should be required to go through parent training before they have their own children. They have no idea how much influence they have on their own children. I am taking responsibility for my own faults not taking others faults as well. I have my own issues as well but working through my mistakes but don’t need approval from anyone but myself and God.
Oh I just love this so much! Thank you! Its such a privilege to hear you two talking. I love how good you are as an interviewer Chris. And Richard is just amazing the way he keeps going with fabulous answers to all of your great questions. This is so satisfying. Love it. I'm thrilled.
This was a fascinating episode and I found it so interesting that I listened from start to finish without pausing it.
I have also been waiting for this one Yay! Thanks Chris and Richard. Diving in as I am making dinner tonight. 🌟✨💯‼️
