Generation Beta and Pluto's Structural Revolution
Pluto Before Beta
Approximately 248 years ago, around 1773, Pluto was in Capricorn. Notable figures born during the last sidereal Pluto in Capricorn exemplify the Saturnian themes of structure, authority, and legacy associated with this placement. People such as William Henry Harrison, the 9th U.S. President, Klemens von Metternich, the architect of post-Napoleonic Europe, and Lord Byron, the revolutionary Romantic poet, all left their marks on history through their engagement with societal frameworks. Others, like Sally Hemings, highlighted the oppressive structures of their time, and philosophers like Arthur Schopenhauer questioned the fundamental constructs of existence. Together, they represent a generation tasked with navigating and reshaping the foundations of their world, leaving legacies that resonate with Capricorn’s enduring ambition and transformative power.
Beta's Saturn
Over the next 15 years, Saturn will travel halfway around the zodiac from Aquarius to the middle of Virgo. As ruler of Capricorn, Saturn will influence the impact of Pluto's influence throughout the generation. Some periods overlap due to the retrogrades that occur in and out of a sign.
