I am not an astrologer but I have been working with my own birth chart since the '70's. Every morning I check my current transits online at www.astro.com. I also frequently check my free short forecast, my interactive travel chart to see what aspects I will be encountering in my next location (as I travel a lot for my video & documentary productions) and my progressive charts.
While working "intently" with Dr. Fred Alan Wolf's books Mind into Matter and Matter into Feeling on On Eagles Wings webcasts on quantum physics, which includes showing us how the many-worlds theory works, and really really trying hard to stay in "present time" I am beginning to witness or "observe" some fascinating phenomena taking place in my own matrix/reality.
My Spiritual Elder, Venerable PaRisHa is encouraging us to clear away as much old programming from our minds as possible so we can start using the other 90% of our brains by re-claiming full consciousness and therefore become the powerful beings everyone of us were given the right to be before we "allowed" ourselves to become sheep. The more I clear away the faster I seem to move when it comes to making decisions and changing my circumstances, as if whatever little voices, bent on holding me back from what I truly desired as my destiny, are dissolving and leaving room for new possibilities.
Studying with a Cherokee Elder for 20 years has left me accustomed to witnessing medicine in action..or miracles. Any quantum shift or phenomena that has to do with Grandmother I automatically accept..but now it is becoming more prominent in my own immediate reality. For over 35 years now whenever something manifested or changed (especially before I discovered the quantum world, the law of attraction and the power of the now) I just believed the universe was responding to what I was putting out, positive or negative. The Law of Karma or cause and effect now makes even more sense with a quantum understanding of how different it is to live in "cause" and not in effect (or being a victim of other "players" in the game).
As I am approaching my 56th birthday and embarking on another winter snowbird journey, I checked my chart as usual but was transfixed in a state of shock when I "observed" that Pluto was no longer in my 7th house of relationships but in the 8th house! I am talking about my natal chart here not a progressed or any other configuration, just the natal chart with the same birth info I have had for 56 years. Most people's first reaction would be that Astro.com made a mistake..but my absolute first reaction (after I got over the shock of what I saw) was that I had shifted something in me enough to no longer be "at war" in my relationships. Could this be how you shift yourself to a parallel world or a parallel "you" that is living in a reality that is better than the one you are in now? Do you change your astrological or birth personality as well? This would make sense (at least to me) if there were like 12 parallel worlds (or many-worlds theory in quantum physics) 12 different personalities therefore 12 different birth charts?
For this article I checked my birth data on other sites to confirm the pluto shift into the 8th house in my "natal" chart and I am going to dig out my old hard copy of my chart to see if there were any other changes although everything else looks the same. The part of this that makes me so happy, personally, is the difference this makes in my life. Here is what I was dealing with (and my friends and family can attest to this), for 56 years, and what it has shifted to today:
Pluto in the 7th house from www.myastologybook.com
If Pluto has difficult aspects, your intimate relationships can be a battleground with many power struggles, sudden changes, and endings; trines and sextiles to Pluto indicate experiences in which you can learn about the use and abuse of power from your partner(s). It would be helpful to examine your motives when you enter into a relationship. There's a lot of unconscious energy here, and you may need to learn to compromise and to not dominate your partner so much. On the other hand, you may need to become more aware of your partner trying to dominate or to control you, since it can work both ways.
Pluto in the 8th house from www.astro.com:
Your life goes through periods of very intense and deep change. You are always aware of something inside you pushing you to grow and become different from what you were. You are not afraid of these changes, because they seem quite logical, a natural process within you.
You may express your interests as a great love of investigating, immediately looking for the answers to any question that intrigues you. However, you don't mind spending a great deal of time and energy to find the answers. But this is more than casual curiosity, it is a deep psychological drive within you.
You want to use all the resources, objects, money or other possessions that come your way for whatever purpose is dominating your life at the moment. Subconsciously, a wish exists for psychic renewal and regeneration. In a general sense, it may be that unknown influences of Pluto could grant you the facility for rapid elimination of undesired influences, both psychological and material. This indicates that you possess the ability to free yourself, of those things that bind you against your wishes.
P.S. I wonder if this had any effect on the fact that I suddenly had the urge to cut my hair off !P.P.S. My friend and beautiful mirror Gail Reilly just reminded me that this could be how, as Dr. Wolf and Grandmother PaRisHa put it, "we can change our past"!!
