Maurice Fernandez The hi 500 Year Cycle and the Generational Cycle Completely new material on one of the most fundamental cycles that humanity experiences. Pluto and Neptune are among the slowest moving bodies in the solar system, and their 496 year cycle sets the tone for the evolution of a whole era. It touches on the deepest existential questions, both consciously and unconsciously. The last conjunction in 1891 was at 8 degrees Gemini and boosted the crossing between eastern and western cultures, along with the great development of communication and transportation that we are now still fully involved with. Neptune and Pluto have locked into a 90 year long sextile aspect, from the early 1940s until the late 2030s. We will explore this generational sextile as it has moved from Pluto in Cancer and Neptune in Virgo, to the current Pluto in Capricorn and Neptune in Pisces.

Techniques or tools used will trace back to an understanding of the natal chart dynamics; the art and nuances of progressions, returns and arcs; cycles that weave their way in and out of our lives; plus an assortment of other techniques gleaned from so many years of star- gazing and application. These are tools I use with my clients who invariably have a stressful issue they bring to the consultation that often reaches back to the natal chart patterns. Our life here on planet earth with its many challenges is an evolutionary journey integrating with our soul pattern.
