Doomsday and Change

I have heard some long, drawn-out talks about the upcoming catastrophes that could happen when Uranus squares Pluto. The precise dates in which the two planets will be exactly squaring each other are:
June 24, 2012, September 19, 2012
May 20, 2013, November 1, 2013
April 21, 2014, December 15, 2014, March 17, 2015

Admittedly before June 24 this year, the world has already seen a number of upheavals, for example, the Jasmine Revolution in the Middle East and the earthquake in Japan that led to tsunami and radiation leakage last year. Sudden and dramatic changes will certainly not stop there. More are sure to come.

However, I do not think it realistic or useful to brood over about what might happen. After all, Uranus squaring Pluto exactly means some unexpected, explosive and fundamental change. Even if we have listed out a hundred possibilities and tried to get prepared (if possible at all), I am sure what will actually happen must be the 101st possibility that we have never thought of and we will still be caught surprised. So why bother?

Before the end of 2011, I wrote that Hong Kong's sense of self will be seriously challenged this year because first Pluto and then Uranus and then both together will be affecting the city’s Sun. But who could have "predicted" it would erupt in an incident like the Dolce&Gabbana saga?? That is why astrology is only for "predicting" the psychological state and energy flow, rather than the actual incident, if not given a very specific context.

A local English TV channel has just finished broadcasting the three-part documentary Into the Universe with Stephen Hawking that featured the famous British physicist. So the gold we find on our planet is made of iron compressed with some other substances when a star (one like our Sun), upon its "death", exploded into a supernova billions of years ago, and the iron was something that had been accumulating inside the very core of the star for billions of years before the explosion!!! So if you have a gold ring, says Hawking, it is truly precious - and I would say "Simply miraculous!". It is a piece of the universe on the finger!


It was also enlightening to learn from the documentary that even when an old star dies, the substances that its explosion splashes into the universe will eventually, pulled by gravity, form some new planets. I call it the true Plutonic "death and transformation", illustrating the inevitable cycles of change that is the universal law.
