“Think of the Universe as a wave”
—Laura Mersini-Houghton, Cosmologist
Pluto orbits the Sun, along with rubble left over from the forming of our solar system, known as the Kuiper belt. This outer rim, farthest away from the Sun, marks a boundary that separates our star system, and the vast galactic expanse beyond.
Some astronomical simulations suggest that a “hypothetical” planet also inhabits the extreme zone of the Kuiper Belt and awaits our direct observation. Known as Planet Nine, this elusive sister planet could be many times larger than Earth.
How can this invitation of infinity expand our window of tolerances? Will it further risk our sanity? Paradigm shifts are required for imaginable answers to the unimaginable vastness.
The glyph symbol for Aquarius consists of two parallel, mirror images of jagged lines: ♒️ They depict the phenomena of undulating waves of energy, carried as current, signal or code through cascades of connectivity that resonate through water waves, brain waves, electromagnetic fields, sound waves, quantum waves, etc.
When we lack a true signal, without authentic coherence, it can lead to collective disorder and disorientation. We develop personal power and coherence by returning our attention to our inner core more often. Playing to each other's strengths can kindle compassionate regard, and promote group resonance. We bear witness at this critical juncture for survival of life on Earth. We are in a crucible of polluted, despoiled lands and seas, with climate chaos steering the ship.
Will we find the collective will to choose the values humanity needs to harmonize and rehabilitate the human condition with integrity and authenticity?

As we contemplate the backstory of humanity’s deep inner space, Pluto in Aquarius offers us a cautionary evolutionary tale. We find that we are entangled, like the rest of the Universe, with the guiding light of our own multiancestors, reaching back to our beginnings. Even though we are at the frontiers of human consciousness and intelligence, we are still cleaning and clearing the pain of generations, reaching for liberation and reparation. We can only be truth together, by honoring the gift that is in each of us. While illuminating the deep history of our collective life, we’ll need to bring a wise inner luminosity into play.
The all encompassing
Wings of the Great Mother glide
through the celestial expanse of
Worlds within Worlds.
Abiding in an everlasting now,
Beholding the totality,
of Evolution's longing, and
the emerging sway of Time.
The Wings of Cosmos
carry us into the theatre of Lumination's
rise and fall . . .
A sudden, waking revelatory light
Is born.

We present to you the collection of essays written annually for We’Moon by vintage astrologer, Sandra Pastorius. Using her unique blend of the playful and the profound, Sandra highlights current planetary events with the We’Moon theme each year. She pays special attention to the roles the outer planets play
in the unfolding Mythic Theater of Life. Each essay offers illuminations and inspirations from these heavenly “characters.”
Sandra Pastorius, aka Laughing Giraffe, (Ashland, OR) has been a practicing astrologer since 1979, and writing for We’Moon since 1990. As a Gemini she delights in blending the playful and the profound. Email Sandra about readings, lectures and workshops.
