A prophetic look at the astrology of Elon Musk and the company that may rise or fall with him. The man who wants to colonize Mars might first have to survive a Pluto return.
Musk is an Accelerationist. He (and 2 other billionaires to my knowledge) believe that we need to hasten the Fall of Earth and get out to the stars. They believe the destruction is necessary to push us up and out. Problem is that they have little understanding of how nature actually works and cannot possibly be ready for the stars before it's too late and we're trapped on a ruined and dying planet.
Yes, this is the dark mythos at the core of the Accelerationist creed: burn the Earth as launch fuel. It’s a theology of escape disguised as innovation. But as you say, there’s a blind spot - they’re trying to outrun a system they’ve never understood. You don’t earn the stars by abandoning the soil. Nature doesn’t reward extraction with ascension. It demands relationship. And without it, they’re not heading to the stars… they’re heading into exile.
Ah yes - totally fair question. It does seem weird at first glance, since Aquarius isn’t the classic opposite of Cancer (Capricorn is). But Pluto’s early degrees in Aquarius are still close enough to Elon’s Sun (around 6° Cancer) to count as an opposition by degree. Astrology gets a bit stretchy like that - it’s not just sign-to-sign, it’s about orbs and timing too.
Basically: the pressure’s already building, and that Pluto opposition will get louder over the next few years.
Thanks for reading so closely - love when people dig into the astro details. 🙏🌌
Thanks for clarifying- I get it :) Even happier to know that he's on his way to facing some inevitable and inevitably stressful cosmic music . . . ☀️ Couldn't happen to a more deserving individual!
Thanks for asking! The chart I’m using is based on Elon’s confirmed birth date - June 28, 1971, in Pretoria, South Africa. Time of birth isn’t public, so rising sign is speculative (many use Gemini based on his communication style), but the Cancer Sun–Saturn conjunction is confirmed and central to the piece. That aspect alone sets the tone for the karmic themes explored here.

Just part way in, but struggling to understand how Pluto in aquarius opposes his cancer sun. I'll keep going. Thanks for your writing!!!

I like what you're saying, but what birth data are you using for Elon's chart? It's not making sense to me. Thanks.
