<\/dt>\nThree, because of the historically significant aspect, a grand water trine, that will perfect just as Uranus stations retrograde.<\/p>\n
Three, because of how modern history can be said to have started twice before and may be starting yet again. The first time in correlation with what makes tomorrow’s grand trine significant. The second time in correspondence to the discovery of Uranus.<\/p>\n
Precisely as Uranus pivots tomorrow, three other slow-moving planets will be perfecting an aspect without modern precedent, the grand water trine of 2013-14.<\/p>\n
The three other planets in question are Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune. The unprecedented nature of their aspect begins with Neptune, the modern ruler of Pisces, where Neptune is now.<\/p>\n
Neptune takes over 164 years to go around the Sun, and the zodiac. It spends about 14 years in each sign. That means a century and a half goes by before Neptune returns home to Pisces after having completed its time there.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Pisces is one of three water signs, along with Cancer and Scorpio. Saturn has occupied Scorpio since October 5, 2012. Jupiter entered Cancer three weeks ago. Tomorrow the three planets will be precisely (to within one tenth of one degree) equidistant from each other, 120 degrees apart on a 360-degree circle. Together they constitute an equilateral triangle on the zodiac, hence the word trine.<\/p>\n
That does not happen every day. As a matter of fact, it has not happened since the world moved ahead by 11 days in the course of one day.<\/p>\n
The last time Neptune traversed Pisces, from 1849 to 1863, Jupiter and Saturn were not positioned so as to complete, even for a single day, a trine like the one perfecting tomorrow. Nor did Jupiter and Saturn fall into place during Neptune’s previous tenure in mutable water at the beginning of the 1700s. Tracing back any farther is problematic because a Pope named Gregory replaced one calendar with another in 1582, an event that some consider the beginning of our modern age.<\/p>\n
The transition from the old calendar (established by Julius Caesar) to the Gregorian version most of us use today was not a smooth one. It entailed moving ahead 11 days in the course of one day, and it took 70 years before all the major nations of the western world were with the program. That makes it difficult to say exactly when Jupiter and Saturn were last anchored in a water trine by Neptune from Pisces.<\/p>\n
We can say, however, that the discovery of Uranus was just as momentous, if not more so, as Pope Gregory’s game changer.<\/p>\n
For thousands of years, for all of history and before, humans had no conception of a Universe more complex than the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and stars. The occasional comet or meteor were here and gone, only perturbing for a moment what had always been and what, it seemed, would always be.<\/p>\n
With Uranus’s discovery in 1781, what had always been, and what would always be, suddenly and unexpectedly became nevermore. That single event, taking place just as the ancient political order of the western world was being relegated to nevermore by one unprecedented revolution after another, can reasonably be considered a second, or alternative, start for our modern era.<\/p>\n
Tomorrow’s convergence of astrological events brings all the players together during what appears to be a third time of momentous endings and beginnings. First, we have a water trine not seen since we don’t know when, because of how the very definition of ‘when’ was altered. Second, Uranus, the planet that changed everything above while everything was changing below, itself is changing directions.<\/p>\n
Third, two monumental events, both centuries apart and centuries ago, are being implied in the astrology of a single day.<\/p>\n
At this point we cannot say how, or even whether, posterity will connect tomorrow with the advent of the Gregorian calendar and the discovery of Uranus. Time, and the perspective it confers, will tell. If there is anything to astrology, however, the convergence of events in repeated correlation with the number three is compelling enough to at least consider the possibility that we are all, together and at once, experiencing a third beginning and a third conclusion in the course of modern history.<\/p>\n
