Part 1: This part in our intensive exploration of Pluto focuses on the meaning of the so-called ‘planetoid’, beginning with mythic portrayals of the underworld deities and ancient philosophical conceptions of what happens to the soul after death. It looks at the relationship between Pluto and the collective psyche, Pluto and the fundamental survival instinct that exists in all living species, and the patterns of specific generation groups related to Pluto’s placement in specific signs of the zodiac. Finally, it focuses on how Pluto is expressed in the natal chart, especially in its aspect patterns with the personal planets and with Saturn. Demoting Pluto from a planet to a planetoid might be appropriate from an astronomical point of view, but it seems that Pluto isn’t paying a lot of attention to having his potency reduced on paper. (There are a few sound problems in this recording, especially in the first half, so the sound can be a little quiet – we recommend using headphones to listen to these parts if you have problems.)

This part is also available in a bundle with the other 2 parts to rent on this platform.
