Pluto turns Direct for its final alignment with the Galactic Centre, then Jupiter joins in the fun! Relax - nothing is under control, but if you're still breathing, then everything is OK 
Since December 2006, Pluto has so far made two conjunctions with the Galactic Centre (Dec 29 2006 and Jul 16 2007 - retrograde). On Friday September 7th, Pluto turned "direct", after being "retrograde" since April 1st. (Planets have apparent "retrograde" motion because the Earth is moving faster and appears to "overtake" them; now we have moved far enough around in our orbit, for Pluto to appear to be going forwards or "direct" again). So we can all begin to breathe out again, after a long period of Pluto digging into our deepest, darkest places and rooting out our inner resistances to truly becoming the bright, shining, loving, wise and empowered beings that we are all meant to be. For most people this has brought challenges and changes in our deepest and most entrenched patterns, particularly those which have been fear-based in the past. For some, the changes will have been in relationships, or in work, and for many it seems that moving home has been on the agenda - we need to be in the right place, and in right alignment both inwardly and outwardly for what is to come next. It may have seemed relentless over the past months, but this is because the energy or intelligence of our Spiritual Will is preparing us for Pluto's final conjunction with the Galactic Centre on October 27th (at 07.24 Universal Time / GMT). And those changes have needed to happen in our deepest levels, by literally "rooting out" everything that has been festering in the hidden corners of our Unconscious. This is our last chance (for the next 248 years, by which time we probably won't care - immortalists excluded) to truly align our personal spiritual will with Divine Source or Divine Will, as we approach the "dimensional portal" of 2012 (more on that in later Updates). Tied up within this powerful alignment, we have also been contending with the Saturn opposition with Neptune (it ended around 8th August); this has been quite literally sorting our illusions and delusions from our reality, and showing us how well our Spiritual Reality (Neptune) conforms with or conflicts with our Physical Reality (Saturn), and vice versa. For many, this has involved changed plans and expectations, and sometimes 180 degree turnabouts in order to get these two aspects of Self to become aligned..."I was expecting this to happen, but the Universe had other, and sometimes completely opposite plans". Neptune can only ever be dealt with effectively by letting go and surrendering to the Divine within us. For now, the most important thing after Pluto turned direct on September 7th, seems to be for us to re-group, and to remain still and centred, so that we can truly receive and integrate the Divine Blessings of the final Pluto/Galactic Centre conjunction that peaks on October 27th. This is going to flow into our consciousness whether we are consciously aware of it or not, and whether we like it or not; so, it is better to be consciously aware of what it is bringing...and to like it. If, however we are still in "resistance mode" or denial of the patterns and attitudes which Pluto has been trying to change since last December, then the final conjunction may become rather more uncomfortable for us - Pluto and the Galactic Centre both bring into manifestation the energies and consciousness of the First Ray of Pure Divine Will, which is both clear and uncompromising. It works by removing the blocks, which we carry within us that keep us from being aware of our true potential for Divine Bliss, and from expressing our highest creative potentials. It manifests through the Second Ray of Love/Wisdom, which tempers the First Ray with Compassion. At times these First Ray energies may appear to be anything other than compassionate, but that is simply due to the current urgency for change, and the need for us to embrace our Divine potentials, rather than to keep resisting or fearing them, which many have been doing for countless lifetimes - sometimes, this fear stems from the memory of "well, the last time I did that, I got...burned at the stake / persecuted / condemned as a heretic, etc,etc for it - I'm not going there again". Remember, the First Ray, Galactic Centre and Pluto all work to manifest the pure potential of Divine Will - nothing is both more subtle and more powerful than this, and certainly nothing that exists in this 3-dimensional world can ever challenge it, when it manifests it's full potential through us. "It is our Light, not our Darkness that most frightens us." (Marianne Williamson). So, when we see all the distortions of consciousness going on around us, and when we expereience all the attempts of governments and other authorities - "them" (whoever "they" are), to control, or surveille us, to whittle away at our freedoms and liberties, it is important to know that against the true power of our spiritual potential these are like nothing more than mosquito bites to our divine consciousness, and are ultimately futile attempts to contain and control the awesome creative power of our essence, which can never be contained or controlled in this, or in any other way. If however, we buy into the collective shadow that these worldy powers represent and reflect back to us (it is after all our projected collective shadow), then we will certainly have an uphill struggle, because we will have given away our inner spiritual power to these so-called "authorities" out there, whose power can only ultimately be derived from our willingness at some level to give it away. NOW IS THE TIME TO STOP GIVING OUR POWER AWAY, no ifs, no buts, no "after I have dealt with my issues", no "when I am more spiritually advanced", no "who am I to be spiritually empowered", no false humility - JUST NOW, JUST BE! That's all there is anyway, just NOW - this moment of Being, everything else is Illusion. Pluto and the GC on and after (it moves very slowly) October 27th will, if we allow it, "resonate" us into our core energy, our core being, our core essence, and we will simply know who we are and what we are here to be and do. The challenge then is to trust our Knowing and our Being, and hey guess what...along comes Jupiter to conjunct the Galactic Centre on December 5th (exact from 09.32 to 11.18 UT/GMT). Jupiter is about Trust, it is about Vision, it is about seeing the Whole Picture; it is about carrying our potentials out into the world and into other dimensions of consciousness from the body, the emotions, and the mind as far as the higher/spiritual mind. Now is the time when we will begin to see and to understand the "Why" of what has been happening to us since December 2006, and what we need to do with that new understanding and experience - we will see it, then we have to act upon it - it is First Ray, if we do not act upon it, then it will be pointless and we will fall back into the old patterns, and create an even bigger shadow. Jupiter gives us Vision and Know-how, and tells us to GET REAL, and to make it happen in every aspect of our lives. When Jupiter conjuncts the Galactic Centre it can give us the vision to know how to make our true spiritual will manifest in the world - now. Not in some far off distant future, in some dream of the future, or in some fantasy of the future, when we have done this and that and learnt how to do so-and-so (Jupiter's shadow loves all these future possibilities, because they mean we don't actually have to be here and be real in the Now, but can delude ourselves that we are being "spiritual" just by having such visions and ideals). The First Ray energy of the GC will cut through all the waffle and self-delusion, and enable us to just make it happen. Then, on December 11th (at 19.11 UT/GMT) Jupiter catches up to and conjuncts Pluto - now things can really start to cook, and make things happen in the way that we want from the deepest aspects of our being, from our true Self. The Galactic Centre will have given Jupiter the Vision, and as it passes over Pluto, that will give us the power to make it manifest in our lives, and to anchor it into our daily reality. Jupiter is, as it were gathering up and harvesting the possibilities created for us by the Pluto/GC conjunction, and showing us what we can actually do with this. Trust what it shows you, because only you will know what to do with it, as long as you trust yourself - no-one else can tell you, because that would constitute a giving away of your spiritual power. So, as we approach this time, be careful what you wish for, because it will manifest; so, it is important to make sure that our wishing, our dreaming and our visioning comes from the highest and most pure aspects of our being, and that our wishing, dreaming and visioning empowers us at every level, as well as empowering those around us to be able to live their vision, and their dream. Jupiter is about Enjoyment and Fun, so enjoy it and have fun in your empowerment, and remember to keep breathing - it's much better than any of the other possible alternatives!
