Unless you aren't following astrology or astrologers, you might not be aware of the dreaded conjunction we have been experiencing since January 12th. Saturn and Pluto conjunct every 33 to 38 years or so, but when they do this in Capricorn, all hell breaks loose. Think World Wars, destruction and plagues like the Black Plague.
Saturn is the task master, lord of time, structure, karma, the work we need to do. Pluto is the planet of death, tearing down all that needs to be swept away, not only from personal lives but to overarching systems like government and social structures.
I really thought this quote from Astrostyle hits it on the head.
"The “rip it down to the studs” renovations that a Saturn-Pluto conjunction demands is rarely gentle. Pluto, the galactic Grim Reaper, has no problem destroying anything that comes into its path. The dwarf planet demands total transformation, and that means getting rid of whatever is keeping us stuck in an old groove. Saturn is like an uncompromising inspector and architect rolled into one. After peering in every corner, this planet will help us map a master blueprint for the new structures we need to put into place."An interesting look at history of Saturn Pluto conjunctions, although not all in Capricorn here.
So, while this conjunction (also spiced up by Jupiter who's like "Let's blow this shit up even more!") is a long, slow, painful cycle of tearing down, it's not without purposes. The Renaissance occurred after a conjunction like this.
As a double Capricorn ruled by Saturn, this dance Saturn is doing with Pluto all of this year has been a real struggle. But only because I let it be a struggle. I see now.
This alignment is doing me a great service. It's tearing down a lot of bullshit, things that aren't serving me anymore not only structurally but personally with relationships. With people. People I thought were my core, my center, who had my back.
So now I sit back, with Saturn on my left and Pluto on my right and watch over the battle field and let them do their work, getting involved in the clearing out when necessary.

I'll be better for it in the end.
