The End of Capitalism – An Astrological perspective
At the beginning of the 1960s Uranus and Pluto were in the sign of Virgo (astrological symbol for the economy and for thrift) after their passage over the fixed star Regulus, at the heart of the constellation of Leo.

Those born at this time take no pleasure in tranquillity and set no store by a life of inaction; rather they yearn for crowds and mobs and civil disorders. Sedition and uproar delight them” [1] Generally Robsons interpretations for the Hyades are much harsher than those of Aldebaran. It is interesting that Robson himself has both his Sun and Midheaven in the Hyades. However Robson’s personal life is a mystery, so we have no way of knowing if he based his conclusions on himself. He says the Hyades; “give tears, sudden events, violence, fierceness, poisoning, blindness, wounds or injuries to […]
