Could someone give me a briefing on planetary influences on my college year from 1987 Sept through to the year of 1988?

Also March 2017 and April 2017?


Born Liverpool, England 6.am. 30th January 1969.

Hitting the highlights: Transits show it as a time of significant change and challenge. While one would expect college to open one's mind to new things, you attended as Pluto squared your Mercury (starting to square your Sun): This radically reframes the way the mind works - "blows your mind" in some respect - and starts a pattern of reframing (over a two-year period) your whole concept of who you are and where you're going. (See the standard interpretations of Pluto transits to Sun and Mercury in the Transits section of the forum to confirm.) Concurrently, you had Uranus square your Pluto, which is broad, far-reaching change and reinvention. Finally, Saturn transited across your Ascendant during much of this time, usually signaling challenges, unusually hard demands and conditions, probably a lot of "growing up fast."

It was also the year of progressed Sun square Neptune. This is interesting in combination with the Pluto transit to your Sun: While Pluto-Sun means dismantling and reframing your sense of identity and direction, the Sun-Neptune probably set that up: It primarily means a dissolving or obscuring any sense of who you are or where you're going (being in a fog - which can happen by itself or, with Neptune, often has help from drugs).

Some solar arc directions reiterate some of these themes, such as Saturn to your Sun and Uranus to your MC.

Not knowing where you were located (for this or the other date below), there are a few important things I can't check, but perhaps the above captures the important things.

You do tend to big the "big deal change" times! Pluto was crossing your Eastpoint as Uranus crossed your IC: change, change, change, with significant reframing of your identity and especially your surroundings (this one may have involved a relocation). Saturn squared your Venus so, in some important sense, fun was spoiled - often marking an end of an important relationship or, on the other hand, duty and taking on responsibilities changed the tone from play to work.

Alienation yes. Harshness yes. At this time, I had no real world career-plan. Eventually I dropped out..but took the exams ...then was unemployed, on welfare. On top of all this, in the college, my first girlfriend left me. I was more interested in escaping into studying occultism than adjusting to practical matters. So yes..this;

Transits;
1 ) Pluto aspecting natal Mercury ; In college; Independent and bizzarre thinking and alienated others through confrontation for sure.
2) Pluto aspecting natal Sun ; awareness turning inwards, self-orientated, recreation of self.

March/April 2017;

More of spiritual relocation...courage..new practices stepped up. On a mundane level, fun was spoiled alright. I met an amazing girl .,,we exchanged numbers and texts around this time......but it eventually fell apart. Some other relationship dramas also.

Thankyou Jim.
