Whatever the astrological meaning of Pluto is (transformation, death and rebirth), we can all agree that its cultural meaning entails the god of the underworld and death in general. How odd then that in the very year that astronomers down-graded Pluto’s status as a planet, the news for the last week of the year is dominated by funerals (i.e. James Brown, Gerald Ford, and Saddam Hussein.)
A. Che Why posted his little song “Galaxy Day” to commemorate the sun’s transit of the galactic center on Dec. 18 and mentioned that “Pluto’s on the same spot. Maybe we’ll see if it matters or not.” It’s hard to say, but coincidence clubbers everywhere can ponder the symbolic situation.
