Mars in the sky moves to form a conjunction aspect with Pluto on November 27, 2012 at 8.14pm GMT and major events bearing the characteristics of both planets are destined to occur near this date.
On the world stage Mars stands for strife, might, aggressive force, belligerence, violence, brutality, conflict, war, military offensives, the army, police, bombs, guns, shootings, accidents and fires.
Pluto stands for groups, the international community (UN), dictators, tyrants, terrorists, rogue countries, nuclear weapons, insidious barbaric behavior, coercive enforcement, stonewalling, drastic measures, threats, bully-boy tactics and disunity or cooperative effort.
The Mars-Pluto conjunction is square Uranus which ups the aspect’s discord potential.
With what’s going on at the moment this astrological event will see the fighting escalate in Syria as dictator, Bashar al-Assad, (Pluto) fights for his life. And will the violence spread to Turkey, Lebanon or Jordan? Or will Israel attack and bomb Iran?
In Burma, Sudan and Sri Lanka ethnic tensions are red hot. And in Britain a child sex abuse scandal is waiting to explode.
In many countries mass protests involving large groups of people (Pluto) often turn violent (Mars) and the police (Mars) are out in force.
But it’s the Middle East where the tensions are at a flashpoint.
