"Everybody does whatever
they do to get sex," you'd say,"Career, fame, money--these are all means
to an end of more sex." Anyone who disagrees with you is obviously deceiving
themselves. Thus, Pluto is the "x" in the phrase "x makes the world go
round"— love, sex, money, power, spirit. More often than not, we
are going to tell you what "x" stands for by what Pluto does in our birthcharts.
Let us create a round
table discussion with the various planetary combinations involving Pluto and
hear them debate their various world orientations:
Pluto-Venus:
Obviously, it was Freud who discovered that sex permeates everything and that
our drives, neuroses, hang-ups are all due to the sexual libido--all other psychologies
are mere tangents to Freud. That's that.
Pluto-Moon:
The greatest need, the greatest fulfillment comes from a profound emotional
response to the world. Our most profound desire—if we search below
the superficialities—is to care, to nurture, and heal each other.
Pluto-Mars:
You will be destroyed by that attitude! Wake up! Take a look around you. The
deepest drive was really articulated by the Darwinists and, more recently,
by the sociobiologists. We all act selfishly.
It is hard-wired into our brains, for God sake! The most fundamental drive
is to compete, is to survive, is to struggle. And if that means destroying
weakness, then it is only for the best in evolutionary terms.
Pluto-Saturn:
The evolutionary impulse you speak of must be controlled. Without restraint,
without suppression, life, as Thomas Hobbes has taught us, life would be solitary,
poor, nasty, brutish, and short. That's why we have social contracts--we need
mechanisms of control. Life is much more serious at heart than any of you
know. Your attitudes are quite frivolous.
Pluto-Uranus:
Oh God, how anal can you be! All of your responses always fail and breakdown.
We are dying to be free, to create, to experience life to its fullest capacity.
We yearn to participate in the dance of life and create a new humanity based
on common values...
Pluto-Mars: You
hippies! The sixties failed. It failed principally because you couldn't deal
with the realities of life. The engines of progress were completely unaffected
by your momentary lapse into delusion.
Pluto-Saturn:
The vision of the sixties failed because people didn't come to terms with
the fact that effective change only comes through persistant hard work and
toil. Free love is not an agent of change.
