 === Pluto in the signs ===
-Because of its elliptical orbit, the time Pluto spends in each of the signs of the zodiac varies from 12 years in Scorpio to 30 years in Taurus. As Pluto transits through the signs, it marks major shifts in planetary energies. Pluto entered Aquarius on March 23, 2023, 248 years after it last entered this sign. We can gain some understanding of what this might portend by studying transits of Pluto in previous signs and also previous transits through Aquarius.

We can gain some understanding of what this might portend by looking at how Pluto activated the energies of previous signs as it passed through them.

-<blockquote>The sign of Aquarius is associated with freedom, revolution (for good or ill) and technological and social innovation. It rules progress and the future. While Aquarius rules groups and group activity, it also gives the impulse to individuality. Those born under the sign of Aquarius are often highly original in their approach to matters. Aquarius rules the dissemination of ideas and information. In its negative expression, Aquarius can be expressed as tyranny or anarchy rather than freedom.<ref>Elizabeth Clare Prophet, June 29, 1991.</ref></blockquote>

-Previous transits of Pluto in Aquarius may give some idea of what we can expect in this era.
+We may well see positive and negative aspects of Aquarius come to the fore in this cycle, as we saw the previous time Pluto was in Aquarius, from 1778 to 1798. This period included the American War of Independence (1775 to 1783) and the French Revolution (1789 to 1799), including the Reign of Terror (1793 to 1794). It was a period of fundamental change in the structures of society, the overthrow of an old order and the establishment of a new. We saw greater freedom (as was established in the American Revolution), but also the rise of tyranny (as in the Reign of Terror).
-The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was 1778 to 1798. This period included the American War of Independence (1775 to 1783) and the French Revolution (1789 to 1799), including the Reign of Terror (1793 to 1794). It was a period of fundamental change in the structures of society, the overthrow of an old order and the establishment of a new. Astrologers see the same possibilities in the current transit of Pluto through Aquarius. In the previous transit, we saw the possibilities of the new order being one of greater freedom (as was established in the American Revolution) or a new tyranny (as in the Reign of Terror). These are the options before us today.
-Here are some key events in previous transits of Pluto in Aquarius:
-to 1553: Henry VIII and the separation of the Church of England from papal authority. The theories of Copernicus foreshadowed a new era in science. Pope Paul III established the Roman Inquisition in 1542 to deal with the rising tide of Protestantism.
-to 1063: The Great Schism, the split between Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches.
-to 819: The start of the Islamic Golden Age, a period of scientific, cultural and economic flourishing in Islamic history. The Carolingian Renaissance saw a similar transformation in Europe.
-to 329: Constantine established Christianity as the state religion of the Roman Empire.
