This Age of Collapse Was Written in the Stars
How Pluto in Aquarius is Ending the Age of Hierarchy, And Why That’s a Good Thing
Look around. The system is glitching.
Trade tensions have backfired, isolating America and rattling global supply chains. The stock market is spiraling, investor confidence is shaken, and international alliances are fraying. U.S. leadership on the world stage is slipping, no longer seen as the steady hand it once claimed to be. And in the streets? Peaceful mass protests are rising as people demand autonomy, dignity, and real change. Today, millions turned out across America (and in cities around the world) marching not in chaos, but in clarity, calling for a future where power is shared, not imposed.
We are watching a collapse take place in real-time.
The ground beneath us is shifting.
What once seemed solid now feels deeply unreliable.
For many, this is anxiety-inducing, depressing, even terrifying. It feels like we’re all going over a cliff. But even though it feels like chaos, it’s not meaningless.
It’s written in the stars.
This is Pluto in Aquarius. And it’s right on time.
Astrology doesn’t predict headlines - it reveals patterns. Cycles. Energetic tides. And Pluto, planet of death, rebirth, and power, has just stepped into Aquarius - the sign of innovation, rebellion, and collective change. We’re not just witnessing unrest.
We’re living through a necessary collapse - one that clears space for something better.
The Cracks in the System: What Pluto in Capricorn Revealed
From 2008 to 2023, Pluto moved through Capricorn - the sign of governments, corporations, and legacy institutions. Its job? To expose what was rotten at the top.
And oh, it delivered.
2008 Financial Crisis: The global economy tanked, exposing a system fueled by greed, debt, and deregulation. The rich got bailouts. Everyone else got breadcrumbs.
Pandemic Fallout: Our healthcare systems were stretched to the edge. Frontline workers were praised and sacrificed. Billionaires got richer while the sick rationed care.
Tech Overlords Rise: Social media platforms monetized attention, polarized society, and shaped reality with algorithms. Our data became their goldmine. Free speech became a product.
Labor Backlash: Gig work replaced job security. Burnout became a badge of honor. But workers pushed back - strikes, walkouts, unions reborn. People want purpose, not just paychecks.
Climate Chaos: Fires, floods, famines - while fossil fuel companies lied and leaders postured. The planet screamed, and still we debated whether it was “real.”
Social Justice Movements: #MeToo, BLM, Indigenous rights, anti-colonial uprisings - righteous reckonings swept the globe. But so did backlash. The status quo doesn’t go quietly.
Pluto in Capricorn was a wrecking ball in a suit. It showed us that the foundations we trusted - banks, governments, corporations, even the myth of meritocracy - were hollow at best, dangerous at worst.
That was the reveal.
Now, with Pluto in Aquarius, we move into the rebuild.
What Comes Next: The Blueprint Beneath the Rubble
Pluto in Aquarius is not here to restore the old world. It’s here to reinvent it. And this time, the power doesn’t belong to the elite; it belongs to the people.
Here’s what we’re stepping into:
Decentralised Power – Blockchain, DAOs, community banks, mutual aid. The era of the gatekeeper is ending. The tools of power are going peer-to-peer.
Reimagined Communities – From intentional living to local resilience hubs, people are finding new ways to live, share, and survive together, without waiting for top-down help.
Revolution in Labor – We’re rejecting hustle culture. Demanding dignity. Reclaiming time. Expect more worker-owned co-ops, universal income experiments, and collective bargaining wins.
Tech with a Soul – The next era of innovation won’t be about extraction - it’ll be about regeneration. Tech that uplifts, educates, connects, not exploits.
Global Networks, Local Action – Aquarius is global. Expect a surge of transnational collaboration, from climate justice to digital activism. Borders can’t contain consciousness anymore.
New Stories, New Myths – As old belief systems crumble, artists, healers, and storytellers will shape the new world. Meaning-makers, this is your time.
We’re not going back. And thank god. Because the world that’s falling apart was never designed to hold us all anyway.
What Now? What’s Yours to Do?
So much right now feels out of our control.
That’s the hardest truth of this moment - but it can also be the most liberating.
You don’t have to save the world.
You don’t have to stop the collapse.
Because this collapse is necessary.
Our task is not to prop up a dying, dysfunctional system just because we’re afraid of what comes next. Our task is to find the courage to let it fall, and to welcome in something far better.
The greatest challenge ahead of us isn’t the collapse itself; it’s our resistance to it. The clinging. The urge to patch and preserve what’s already decaying. But some things need to die so that something healthier, wiser, more humane can rise in their place.
We have to conjure the energy of the world we want to live in.
Hold it.
Vibrate with it.
Call it in.
Ask yourself:
What am I ready to release?
What systems have I outgrown?
Where can I reclaim my power, my voice, my hope?
And most importantly, get clear on what you stand for, not just what you stand against.
Yes, protest has its place. Yes, responding to injustice matters. But if we only rage against what’s wrong, we feed the very thing we want to dismantle. That’s the energy of tearing down. And in a collapsing system, there’s already plenty of that happening on its own.
What the world needs now are the builders.
The ones who plant vision in scorched earth.
The ones who stand rooted in what they believe in, so deeply, so fully, that it begins to take form.
That’s the energy that turns rubble into something sacred.
That’s the energy that rebuilds the world.
Personally? I’m choosing to meet this moment with vision. To name the cracks in the old world, and still believe in the new one. To write about what’s breaking and also what’s becoming.
To trust that collapse is not the end - it’s the clearing.
How will you meet this moment?
We have to keep reminding ourselves to embrace the beauty and power of the universe. We are one! It's so reassuring to read the 2030's will be a beautiful time of rebuilding! Our 9 yr old grandson lives with us and I wonder what he faces; he's an Aquarius, so sensitive and kind. Sounds like good timing!
I’ve been saying for years that we were living through the fall of Rome 2.0 and here we are. Interesting that the tropical Pluto transit coincides with the Saturn’s sidereal slide into Pisces.
Regardless of the grammar, it is indeed written in the stars
