I have just received the newsletter from the Astrodienst website which seems relevant to this subject:

Some myths and fairy tales tell of a hero's journey during which someone has to face challenging trials, cross unknown seas or survive dangerous encounters with powers of the underworld. Usually, all ends well, and the hero returns home with a valuable gift, a magical object, or blessed wisdom. The astrological constellations in January and throughout 2020 contain all the ingredients for such a story. The quality of time is extraordinary in its intensity. It is hard to believe that we will all suddenly become heroes and heroines. In the coming months, however, we will certainly bear witness to profound changes in social life.

The dominant constellation is the conjunction of Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn, which will be exact on January 12. Now it will become abundantly clear which foundations in our society have become too fragile to offer reliable stability. Corrections are inevitable. Where these are denied, fierce confrontations are to be expected. Thus for some time, your personal path could lead you through challenging terrain where every step counts, just as the heroine and the hero must experience on their journey. Your room for manoeuvre may be limited, as many things are now subject to the laws of necessity for some time to come.

On January 10, the conjunction of Saturn and Pluto is heralded by the Full Moon on the Cancer-Capricorn axis, with a penumbral lunar eclipse. The Cancer Moon draws our attention to the fact that social structures, rules and powers only make sense if they serve the people. On January 13, the Sun will be directly aligned with the conjunction of the two planets at 23° Capricorn. During this time, light and shadow may struggle intensely for sovereignty. It is a time of initiation, in which the inner light can clearly show itself - a first climax in a year that will offer us still some further ingredients of a genuine hero's journey.

During the remaining days of January, we can hardly expect any relaxation, but at least a relief from the feeling of paralysis. On January 20, the Sun enters Aquarius and subsequently forms a square with Uranus in Taurus on January 23. After the experience of the leaden heaviness of the previous days, creative and freedom-loving forces now become active again, particularly at the time of the New Moon in Aquarius on January 24.

And here is an article from Philip Lindsay, an esoteric astrologer, from his latest newsletter:

This Saturn-Pluto conjunction has not occurred in this sign for 500 years, since the religious Reformation in Europe, 1517. It is also the first conjunction with Saturn in Capricorn that has occurred since Pluto was “discovered” in 1930. Hence this conjunction indicates a massive reformation that will take place in the ensuing years; it is the pivotal point of this Pisces-Aquarius cusp and represents the power structure of the status quo that have reached their ultimate point of crystallisation – and hence an inevitable shattering:

In this sense, Capricorn holds in itself the seeds of death and finality … When crystallisation has reached a certain degree of density and so-called “hardness,” it is easily shattered and destroyed and man, born in Capricorn, then brings about his own destruction; this is due to his fundamentally materialistic nature, plus the “blows of fate” which are the enactments of the law of karma. Again and again, a certain measure of concreteness is achieved, only again to undergo destruction, prior to the release of the life and the rebuilding of the form.

If crystallisation is reflected upon, it means that the shadow must be faced – to destroy the crystallisation is to release the shadow locked up within. Hence, this must occur individually and collectively – and has been occurring for much of 2019 as Saturn and Pluto have moved closer to one another. Both planets represent an expression of the destroying force of ray 1 – will or power – that is used to shatter old forms.

The January full moon of 2020 represents the culmination point of this 500 year cycle. Saturn ruling the mind, is responsible for the creation of thought-forms that eventually become crystallised. The thought-form-creating capacity is karma-engendering – and Saturn is the Lord of Karma:

From certain angles, Saturn can be regarded as the planetary Dweller on the Threshold, for humanity as a whole has to face that Dweller as well as the Angel of the Presence, and in so doing discover that both the Dweller and the Angel are that complex duality which is the human family.

The exact Saturn-Pluto conjunction occurs around the Capricorn full moon solar festival – along with the Sun and Mercury upon their annual circuit, considerably amplifying the power of the conjunction. (Including Jupiter, there are five placements in Capricorn at the full moon.) No one knows what is going to unfold in the next several years, it is all determined by human free will. Life is becoming tougher, and yet the tension must be held during future periods of pain that inevitably accompany great changes:

Capricorn is ever the sign of conclusion, and of this the mountain top is frequently the symbol, for it marks the point beyond which further ascent in any particular life cycle is not possible. Capricorn is, therefore, the sign of what has been called esoterically “periodic arresting.” Progress becomes impossible under the existing forms, and there has to be the descent into the valley of pain, despair and death before a fresh attempt to scale the heights takes place.

Therefore, 2020 may be a year of greater pain and transformation for Humanity. Yet, following the shattering of these old forms, radical changes are on the horizon, symbolised by Saturn and Jupiter entering Aquarius together in Christmas 2020. Aquarius, the sign of reform and revolution and the greater cycle toward which the world is heading.

In the interim however, Humanity must come to terms with the oligarchies, declarations of war, financial institutions and corporations that dominate many Western political systems and billions of lives.

This problem is at the heart of the Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn, hence this conjunction represents the seed of change that must occur, signalling the breakdown of that system. If this does not happen, the conjunction will represents a further consolidation of selfish power and a lack of compassion and caring by those who hold power.

One possible ramification of this conjunction is a worldwide financial crash/crisis that signals the breakdown of capitalism and the fairer redistribution of resources. It has been forecast for years, is well overdue and is predicted to occur in 2020 by many analysts, experts, financial institutions and astrologers. Capricorn is one of the major signs related to money and its production, hence its intensely material attributes in its lower expression.
