Aspects
Neptune Opposition Pluto
An exceedingly rare, deep-generational opposition between the urge to transcend and the drive to transform: collective ideals and collective power face off across an era. It describes a civilizational reckoning far more than a single life. Where it touches a life, the work is refusing both naive idealism and ruthless power. At its best it forces a culture to reconcile its dreams with its depths.
Lean in — Refuse both naive idealism and ruthless power.
Watch for — Mistake an era's reckoning for a personal one.
