Entre 2025 et 2035, Pluton quittera ses limites (vers le sud) pour la dernière fois pour les prochains millénaires. L’histoire nous apprend qu’une « rédemption, une révolution, un éveil massif des consciences deviennent non seulement possibles, mais probables » dans les temps à venir.
Pluton. Cette minuscule planète est là pour nous enseigner le pouvoir, notre pouvoir, comment nous l’avons et comment l’exercer. Trop souvent, dans notre vie, nous projetons notre pouvoir sur les autres… d’autres personnes, d’autres organisations, d’autres gouvernements, d’autres religions. Nous dansons dans l’illusion du rôle de victime et de bourreau. Pluton, le maître des tâches, nous fait dépasser cette danse. En transitant chaque facteur céleste de notre thème, Pluton nous offre une nouvelle chance de négocier notre rapport au pouvoir et à son expression. Lorsque Pluton transite hors limites (Hors limites), il élève cette danse à un niveau supérieur et correspond à des périodes où les sociétés sont prises en otage par des tyrans et des dictateurs (Hors limites Nord) et où les peuples revendiquent leur pouvoir par des révolutions et des réformes (Hors limites Sud).
En raison d’une anomalie dans la relation entre les mouvements de la Terre et l’orbite de Pluton, cette dernière passera bientôt un dernier cycle hors limites. Que pouvons-nous apprendre des derniers siècles de transit de Pluton hors limites pour nous éclairer sur ce dernier événement ?
Hors limites
Habituellement, les planètes en transit sont suivies grâce à la longitude zodiacale le long de l’écliptique, facilement visible sur les cartes circulaires modernes. Cependant, la mesure nord et sud de l’écliptique, appelée déclinaison, ne peut être représentée sur ces cartes. Le Soleil a toujours une déclinaison nulle, car sa trajectoire est l’écliptique elle-même. Toutes les autres planètes orbitent au-dessus ou en dessous de cette ligne imaginale, et les tropiques terrestres du Capricorne et du Cancer forment une zone ou une « limite » typique de ce mouvement. Une planète est dite « hors limites » lorsqu’elle dépasse la moyenne de 23 degrés et 16′ au nord ou au sud de l’écliptique. (Ce nombre varie en fonction de la distance entre le plan équatorial et l’écliptique, mais seulement entre 22 degrés 36′ et 24 degrés 12′.) #1
Une planète hors limites se manifeste de manière plus exagérée que si elle était dans les limites. KT Boehrer, qui a mené des recherches approfondies sur les planètes hors limites, affirme qu’elles nous apparaissent comme étant « au-delà des conditions ou des attentes normales ». #2 Dans Beyond the Solstice by Declination , Leigh Westin affirme qu’une planète hors limites est « libérée, se produit sans contrôle et n’est pas limitée par les contrôles normaux ».
La plupart des planètes se déplacent hors des limites à proximité des points de solstice, lorsque le Soleil apparaît le plus au nord et le plus au sud de l’équateur. Pluton, en revanche, a une orbite excentrique : inclinée de 17 degrés, allongée, le Soleil n’étant même pas au centre de son orbite. En raison de ces excentricités, Pluton se déplace hors des limites à proximité des 9 degrés du Lion et du Verseau. Imaginez maintenant un Pluton hors des limites, le dieu des enfers, libéré sur la planète Terre, vivant au-delà des conditions normales, sans limites ni freins.
Il existe une autre anomalie intéressante concernant Pluton. En raison de l’oscillation de la Terre sur son propre axe – la même oscillation qui provoque la précession des équinoxes, le passage à l’ère du Verseau et l’alignement galactique avec le solstice d’hiver inhérent au calendrier maya – le plan équatorial se déplace vers l’orbite de Pluton, puis s’en désaligne. Cela modifie la durée et l’étendue des déplacements de Pluton hors limites.
Le plus fascinant dans tout cela est qu’entre 2025 et 2035, Pluton sortira de ses limites pour la dernière fois des prochains millénaires. Ce déplacement vers le sud marquera une période de révolution, de réforme, de combustion interne et de montée en puissance du peuple. Explorons les sorties de Pluton dans l’histoire pour mieux comprendre notre avenir.
Pluton hors des Lorsque Pluton se déplace vers le nord, tyrans, bâtisseurs d’empires et guerres ravagent la planète, comme si le royaume souterrain de Pluton se déployait sous nos yeux telle une apocalypse zombie.
Going back a bit further: from 1687 to 1710, Pluto was out-of-bounds north, peaking in declination in 1699 and 1700 when the French King Louis XIV instigated war throughout Europe and Peter the Great expanded Russia into Sweden. At the beginning of this period, William and Mary crossed the English Channel and took over England – the so-called Glorious Revolution that was not glorious: more of a coup than a revolution.
From 1437 to 1466, Pluto out-of-bounds north saw the rise of Mehmed II, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. In 1453, the year when Pluto was farthest out, Mehmed’s army catapulted itself into Constantinople, taking down the Byzantine Empire with new cannon ball technology. From 1188 to 1221, Pluto’s northerly transit out-of-bounds coincided with the reign of Genghis Khan, a representative of Pluto that needs no further elaboration. Genghis Khan was crowned emperor a year before Pluto was at its most extreme in 1207. Concurrently, it was the time of Christian crusades and knights in shining armour fighting their way into Jerusalem.
From 940 to 976, Otto the Great expanded the Holy Roman Empire and Zhao Kuangyin founded the Song Dynasty. From 692 to 731, Charles ‘The Hammer’ Martel expanded the Frankish Empire and Leo III burned altars throughout the Byzantine Empire. From 445 to 486, Vandals and Goths took over the Roman Empire. From 197 to 240, Ardashir the Great founded the Sassanid Empire. And before that, from 50 BCE to 6 BCE, a series of wars and conquests transformed the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire – from Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon in 49 BCE to Octavian crowned Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE (when Pluto was peaking), this time period is legendary. All of this occurring with Pluto out-of-bounds to the north. For reasons that I hope are obvious, I call this the POWER time.
Pluto out-of-bounds south
When Pluto transits OOB to the south, instead of tyrants, we see the people rise up through revolts, rebellions, chaos, implosions, collapse, and shifts that move from the internal to the external. The last time Pluto was OOB southside was 1775 to 1796. In 1775, rebels in the colonies took out their muskets and mounted a revolution against the British Empire. When Pluto peaked in 1783, the war officially ended with the Treaty of Paris calling a truce between the largest empire on the planet and a group of visionaries who started a new nation with a new constitution. Six years later, in the same city as the treaty, rebels stormed the Bastille, starting a time of terror and chaos in France. Finally, as Pluto left its out-of-bounds journey in 1794, one of the leaders of the rebellion, Robespierre, was executed, ending the Reign of Terror.
Going back in time: five years after Martin Luther wrote 95 Theses (1519), Pluto went OOB south (1524–1553), and demonstrations in Europe against corruption in the Catholic Church kick-started what has come to be known as The Reformation. By the time Pluto peaked in 1537, Huldrych Zwingli had died in battle, King Henry VIII of England had broken with the [Roman] Church (1534), and John Calvin had published his theological treatise, starting Calvinism. By the end, Lutherans were allowed to practise in the Holy Roman Empire. In 1291, when Pluto peaked in extreme declination south, the last crusade ended at the Battle of Acres, dispersing the knights throughout Europe, including into the Alps where three cantons signed a treaty and establishing the roots of one of the few countries in the world with direct democracy, Switzerland. Meanwhile, Kublai Khan oversaw a time of advancements in the arts and infrastructure in China.
From 1028 to 1067, Pluto OOB correlates with a chaotic time in England ending with the battle of Hastings and the intervention of William, King of Normandy. At the same time, the Catholic Church in Rome moved into a schism. Going back another cycle, from 780 to 824, Charlemagne and Harun al Rashid passed gifts back and forth overseeing a time of peace between the Holy Roman Empire and the Abbasid Caliphate as the Islamic Golden Age was growing legs. Pluto was OOB from 533 to 580 CE. During this time, the Byzantine Emperor Justinian (reign 527-565) transformed the judicial system into what has come to be known as the Code of Justinian, and gave us “innocent until proven guilty”, an inspiration for modern governments. Perhaps most significantly, Pluto was OOB from 285 to 337. Christian demonstrations and massacres surged into a peak of chaos during Diocletian’s reign (284–305). Just as Pluto peaked in extreme declination, Diocletian died, and Constantine (reign 306-337) took over. Constantine addressed the internal strife within the Roman Empire by establishing Christianity as an official religion and giving them freedom to worship, without ostracising the pagans (that came later).
Going back further into history, Pluto OOB brought on other times of revolt and reform including in the Roman Empire (Jewish Revolt of 70 CE); in the Seleucid Empire (Maccabean Revolt from 167-160 BCE); in Greece (Pericles Funeral Oration in 431 BCE was at a Pluto OOB peak); in Greece with Solon’s Reforms; and in Judea with Solomon’s reforms. Back in 1194 to 1123 BCE, peaking in 1166 BCE, Pluto’s OOB time oversaw a time of world collapse when several civilisations including Egypt, the Hittites, and Assyria all fell at the same time. For reasons that I hope are obvious, I call this time REFORM.
As we quickly head into Pluto out-of-bounds south, we enter into a time of internal collapse, rebellions, reformation – perhaps even wise leaders will listen to the needs of the people. Consider that in some places the next Constantine, Harun al Rashid, Kublai Khan, or Ben Franklin may be on the rise into power. Perhaps mass demonstrations lead to another reformation, or revolutions lead to new constitutions, or collapse and internal chaos lay waste a world of corruption opening the field for a new society. Perhaps even something that has never happened before – a mass awakening, a time when internal strife leads to breakthroughs in science, consciousness, and healing.
In my forthcoming book, Persephone’s Revolution, I outline five possible futures for the last Pluto OOB: Collapse, Revolution, Non-violent Demonstrations and Benevolent Rulers, a Scientific Paradigm Shift, and an Awakening, including the places they are most likely to occur. I imagine we all have preferences and might try to move to a country that is most likely to have a benevolent ruler or an awakening. However, the reality is that we are one world, one society, and profoundly interconnected. One country collapses, and its waves of impact incite a revolution in another land across the globe.
However, looking at the entire Pluto cycle, which I deem begins when Pluto crosses the equatorial plane moving south to north (1863 in our current cycle), it offers insight into how various cultures, lands, and people with disparate histories may respond to an unleashed Pluto.
Pluto crossing the equatorial plane south to north
To complete the Pluto Paradigm shift cycle that follows declination, two more points are necessary – Pluto as it crosses the equatorial plane south to north and then north to south.
Each cycle begins with visionaries, people who see beyond the current state of humanity, beyond the tumult, beyond the suffering, beyond the beliefs that hold reality so tightly. People who lived and initiated new Pluto paradigms (0° south to north) include Thales, Aristotle, Ptolemy, Augustine of Hippo, Hypatia, Cicero, Lycurgus, the Prophet Muhammad (and his immediate followers), al-Battani, Bernard of Claivaux, Hildegard von Bingen, Chaucer, Petrarca, Descartes, Kepler, and Galileo.
To start off our current cycle, James Maxwell came up with the equations for electricity and magnetism; Darwin wrote a paper on evolution; Abraham Lincoln gave a speech; Ramakrishna experienced enlightenment; Baháʼu’lláh had a dream in a garden that launched the Baháʼí Faith; Helena P. Blavatsky fell off a horse and began having visions; John D. Rockefeller Sr. invested in oil; Karl Marx wrote Das Kapital; and Henry Dunant wrote a book that led to the Geneva Conventions and the Red Cross. Titans of industry took quantum leaps in wealth while even the just word technology became relevant. For reasons that I hope are obvious, I call this time VISION.
Pluto crossing the equatorial plane north to south
In this stage, a turning point, a crisis, and a cry for justice shift the direction of humanity and move us onto a course of revolution, reformation, and into the REFORM time. Many times, a powerful leader dies and after a crisis in succession a weaker leader steps into place setting the stage for revolution later. Leaders who died and left a power vacuum in their wake include Ramses II, King David of Judea, Augustus Caesar, and Lorenzo de Medici.
In the power vacuum, radicals cry for justice, like Jesus, Mani, Savonarola, Samuel Adams, and in our current cycle, the people of Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Czechoslovakia who stood up to the Soviet Union and played a part in its collapse. Turning points can take other forms like the battle of Talas that brought paper from China to the Abbasid Caliphate, Columbus landing in Hispaniola bringing gold and slaves from the New World to Europe, or the Italian Renaissance that brought art and new tools of war to the world, or the ‘Great Awakening’ when Jonathan Edwards got the colonists excited about freedom of religion.
In our current cycle, Chernobyl exploded, bringing awareness of the dangers of nuclear energy; the Soviet Union fell into 15 different countries; and protests in Tiananmen Square were violently quashed. To go into all the crises of the late 1980s is beyond the scope of this article and is covered in thorough detail in my upcoming book.
For reasons that may or may not be obvious, I call this time JUSTICE, not because justice is given, succeeds, or is even the focus, but because there is a cry for justice, a deeper desire for justice, a call to rectify and change the laws and current belief systems in society.
For those history buffs who want to track your own fascinations with the past, here is a list of dates outlining the Pluto in declination cycle going back to 1809 BCE.

There is another component to this Pluto OOB business, a component that may take a bit to digest. It seems that how we experience power in our lives not only has to do with Pluto, but with the point in space in which Pluto goes out-of-bounds. The degrees of zodiacal longitude where Pluto goes into extreme declination become sensitive points in space, where we also see themes of power play out as other planets traverse these degrees. It is as if Pluto’s orbit is in a field of energy with the other Kuiper Belt objects, and this field influences or correlates with other planets in our solar system.
Some astronomers are considering the Kuiper Belt as a toroidal field. It is interesting to note that other major Kuiper Belt objects have high inclinations in roughly the same direction, including Haumea, Makemake and Varuna. Check out solarsystemscope.com for an easy and fun way to view these orbits.
When I studied planetary physics with an eccentric inventor, Dan Dial, in Shelton, Washington, he taught me to view the planets as filters that augment the energy penetrating our solar system, spirally, centripetally inward from space from all the stars, black holes, and galactic fields, aligned with the orbital plane. If the planets are actually creating shadows on our planet rather than emitting any kind of energetic presence (as scientists like to remind astrologers), and the energy that is emanating from all kinds of fields from all kinds of places moving through the planets, then a toroidal field of the Kuiper Belt could easily be a significant factor in how we experience human consciousness patterns.#4
In over 1400 charts that I have explored, some poignant examples stand out. Look at the Sun, for instance, as it moves through the northern OOB place of Pluto (currently at 9 degrees of Leo in the tropical zodiac) and using the same orb of influence as the orb the OOB takes place in.#5 We have a grand list of powerful people – people who embody or embodied power, who looked to no one for their own authority. People like President Barack Obama (12°5’ Leo); King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia (08° Leo); President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela (05° Leo), the Grand Ayatolla of the Shia Religion Ali al-Sistani (11° Leo); President of Pakistan Arif Alvi (6° Leo). Benito Mussolini, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Henry Ford to name some other significant ones.
As we quickly head into Pluto out-of-bounds south, we enter into a time of internal collapse, rebellions, reformation – perhaps even wise leaders will listen to the needs of the people
Others that forged their own way include writer J. K. Rowling, Quarterback Tom Brady, and the first man on the Moon, Neil Armstrong. My clients, typically not world leaders, with Sun around 9 degrees Leo, often feel a great need to change the world, a burning urgency to make a difference in the world, as if their light cannot be contained.
On the south side (currently at 9° Aquarius), we see leaders more likely to be reformers or work their power within a group or even represent the people like Oprah Winfrey (10° Aquarius), Jerome Powell (16° Aquarius), King Abdullah of Jordan (10° Aquarius), Chief Justice John Roberts (7° Aquarius), one of the richest people on the planet Carlos Slim Helu (8° Aquarius) who works closely with his family, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky (5° Aquarius), President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Boris Yeltsin.#6 With clients, there is passionate desire to reform the world, to work together with others to change society.
Each planet expresses its own flavour of power. I have taken to calling this place power, the place where in the zodiac Pluto goes out-of-bounds north. Another example is when Mars is at the power place (currently at 9° Leo tropical): we see athletes whose physical endurance and power goes beyond the average even among professional athletes: basketball players Michael Jordan (10° Leo), Wilt Chamberlain (07° Leo), Charles Barkley (09° Leo) and baseball players Willie Mays (13° Leo), Derek Jeter (11° Leo), Roger Maris (07° Leo) and Joe Torre (10° Leo). And a few others who are known for their courage in extreme environments like the mountaineer Ed Viesturs, the Navy Seal Carl Brashear, Helen Keller, Florence Nightingale, Anne Frank, and John McCain.
On the south side, we have athletes Lance Armstrong (12° Aquarius), Ken Griffey Jr. (12° Aquarius) and Pete Rose (08° Aquarius). For extreme physical strength and courage, magician David Blaine who lived in ice in Times Square for three days (06° Aquarius), Steve Irwin who showed us that alligators are really safe to hang out with (16° Aquarius), the astronaut Gus Grissom (09° Aquarius), and Joan of Arc (12° Aquarius) who showed us what a dream could do.
Perhaps more interesting, are people with the Sun/Moon midpoint activating this axis, people who not only exude power and conviction, but are emotionally able to align themselves with this power, giving them the ability to sustain their convictions over time. Current leaders like Vladimir Putin (6° Leo), Joe Biden (14° Aquarius), Pope Francis I (13° Aquarius), the Dalai Lama (12° Leo), Rupert Murdoch (7° Aquarius), Elon Musk (11° Leo), and President Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed al-Nahyam of the United Arab Emirates. And past leaders J. Edgar Hoover (10° Aquarius), Henry Kissinger (15° Leo), and U.S. presidents Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Hayes, McKinley, Hoover, Harding, Truman and Nixon.
You might be asking where is Donald Trump on this list, or Jeff Bezos, or Warren Buffet. Donald Trump has Sun/Neptune midpoint at 14° Leo, a place I like to call the illusion of power. Jeff Bezos has Sun/Saturn at 7° Aquarius, an ability to assert authority. Both Warren Buffet and Kamala Harris have Sun/Jupiter at 10° Leo, changing the world through their ability to envision a new world. And last but not least, Xi Jinping [of China] has his Moon close to 6° Leo along with the head of the EU, Ursula Gertrud von der Leyer (around 14° Leo), following in the footsteps of Chairman Mao Zedong (14° Leo), Queen Elizabeth II (12° Leo), Mikhail Gorbachev (8° Leo), John Foster Dulles (10° Leo) and King Louis XIV of France (6° Leo).
Conclusion
The Pluto declination cycle appears to mark history in perfect lockstep with how paradigms shift – from a time of visionaries (VISION), to when tyrants build empires (POWER), to a crisis point that brings cries for justice (JUSTICE) and finally into a period of redemption, when the visions of the visionaries emanate throughout the populace, when the cries for justice of the few become cries for justice of the many, and when leaders either listen to the people or are ousted and revolutions take down despots. As we head into the REFORM time, the last time Pluto goes out-of-bounds for thousands of years, a redemption, a revolution, a mass-awakening of consciousness becomes not only possible but likely.
To conclude, I offer this blessing: may the visions of Ramakrishna, who found a way through and beyond major religious dogma to inspire Gandhi to start a non-violent protest movement; may the visions of Henry Dunant, who disgusted with the war and its aftermath started a worldwide peace movement; may the visions of Helena P. Blavatsky, who saw beyond this world into the interconnectedness of humans with other worlds; may the visions of Baháʼu’lláh, who wanted peace for all people of all religions; and may the visions of Henry David Thoreau and Leo Tolstoy, who both saw a way to live in harmony with nature and community– may all these visions prevail over the visions of the Robber Barons, or the visions of divisiveness of the US Civil War, or the visions of heavenly cities that incited so much violence during the Taiping Rebellion, or the visions of Darwin that have come to mean the survival of the fittest, or the visions of Karl Marx that have led to so much discord.
May we find the ability to adapt and unite from the work of Constantine, wisdom from those who walked away from the crusades and started a new form of government in the founding of Switzerland, inspiration from the activists of the Reformation, and courage from the leaders of the American Revolution. I look forward to something entirely new enveloping the planet – a wave of understanding, compassion, and unity – unlike anything before.
It is after all, Pluto unleashed for the last time.

5) Between 1938-1953, the orb was extensive. Pluto was OOB from 28° Cancer to 15° Leo – an orb of 16 degrees. I used the orb we are moving into, a five-degree orb because between 2025-2035 Pluto moves from 5° Leo to 16° Leo.
6) Here’s a brief statistical context for the POWER time. The Forbes list of the most powerful people on the planet in 2010 contains 68 names, and we have birth data for the first 49 of them. Of those 49, 12.2% have a planet within three degrees of the Pluto OOB point north or south. If you take what a random study of statistics suggests, you have just as much chance of being born on any one day of the year as you do any other day. (There are studies that show September as having more births in recent years and some studies that show a few random dates in October as being popular – but every study I looked at did not include dates of the Sun at POWER. So, there is a chance that someone is slightly less likely to be born with the Sun at Pluto OOB north– but we will ignore that since it only strengthens my argument.) Therefore, one would have a chance of having the Sun or any other planet at POWER of 3.3% given a three-degree orb of each point. It seems significant, the difference between 12.2% and 3.3%. Note that the list of the 49 most powerful people did not include Hugo Chavez, SCOTUS Chief Justice Roberts, nor did it include the presidents of Pakistan or Israel, and Oprah was number 64 and not included. When we add in the Moon, Venus, Sun/Moon, and Sun/Venus we include every person on the list with the following exceptions: Dimitri Medvedev, Ban Ki-Moon, Michael T. Duke, and Sergey Brin all of whom either have Mars or Sun/Mars at one of the points, Jean Claude Trichet who only has Pluto and Sun/Neptune, and Hu Jintau who has nothing at all at any of the power or justice points, no midpoints, nothing. I can’t figure him out, but then I don’t think I’m the only one who finds him an enigma.
