Speech, Survival, Freedom

With the Moon in Gemini crossing United States Uranus and Mars, and President Trump's Sun, Uranus, and North Node in the 10th house, the revolutionary leader launched a defense of the American people's right to express themselves freely. According to law, this right is not given to the people by others, it is inherited by every citizen at birth. 

At birth, the human voice is perhaps the most important conscious tool of survival. It communicates essential needs and conditions long before words are formed. Sounds from the throat provide grounding in the alien environment. That knowledge is remembered. Even everyday conversation reinforces the basic will to live and thrive.

There are many authoritarian regimes around the world that restrict open expression, even punish it by imprisonment, and sometimes death. People from such places flock to the United States for this freedom among many others. The utterances from the public square in the US are wild, unpredictable, sometimes shocking, obscene, frightening, and sometimes poetic and inspiring, or even honest. It is a free-for-all.

People occasionally take their gifts for granted and forget to re-vitalize and appreciate what by fortune came their way. Pluto in Capricorn is reflecting a reminder to the populace that freedom of speech is best appreciated and protected.

The Pluto return in Capricorn is making some unusually long stops at USA Mercury, the governor of speech in the cosmos. 

When an outer planet going direct reverses course, long stationary periods occur where people gather information and motivation in order to make progress when the planet goes direct again. Sometimes repeated stations occur when the issues are especially important. This is what has happened to United States Mercury.  

The first stop at the country's 24 degree Mercury in Cancer came in February 2020 with a five month long station. Everyone noticed that free speech was under attack from the tech giants in cahoots with the establishment government. While some continued to ignore the incident, now that Pluto is preparing to make another  station, the situation is asking for more attention.

In August, a four month station begins, where the actions initiated today should gather force. This four month station takes the nation to December, just months before the first Pluto return to the 27 degree natal Pluto in Capricorn. National media outlets are declining in influence and the tech monopolies will do well to follow.  People will do well to look at their consumption of these products.

With the country's North Node in self expressive Leo, inhibiting paralyzing restrictions are not really well met deep in the psyche of the body politic. Freedom of speech parallels freedom of thought. Of course, groupthink is tempting in the human urge to belong, but Americans seem to have an instinct for individuality. 

Speaking freely is the American birthright. A more responsible honest expression will surely satisfy natal Pluto in Capricorn. Correct?
