That&#8217;s a term that describes asteroids and many newer classes of bodies that emerged in the 20th century &#8212; in particular, Kuiper Belt objects (of which Pluto was the first, and Eris the most famous for her role in &#8216;demoting&#8217; Pluto), dwarf planets, centaurs, and strange things like Damocles. You might visit any of the few websites that cover these points and find yourself reading a lot of keywords that don&#8217;t seem to add up to much. I think that it&#8217;s necessary to develop more complete narratives about these points, which evolve over time and with experience. The descriptions cannot be static because with each person who embodies one of these points in a natal chart and with every news event that reveals something new, it&#8217;s necessary to revise one&#8217;s understanding. One of the points that has been emerging in recent years as a signpost of our age is Nessus, discovered orbiting our Sun in 1993. Al Gore once called our time in history the era of consequences &#8212; easy enough to see, as we watch the ice caps melt. Nessus describes the process of cause and effect, which are the necessary steps to both consequences and karma, which is action and its results. One reason Nessus is so important in our time is because our society seems to be oblivious to the fact that action causes results and that results come from action. It is often said that the United States is a litigious society, where the common remedy is litigation. Working happily amidst the fray are working many slip-and-fall artists. Nessus is about taking responsibility for one&#8217;s actions, and for breaking the cycle of abuse or deception. Nessus can snatch the boomerang out of the air through which it&#8217;s spinning. Today the Gemini Sun is square Nessus in Pisces, and that is the image of the buck stopping: of taking preventive action, of stopping something in-process and of understanding that cause and effect are never separate.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you&#8217;re born under the sign of the twins, happy birthday.
