Default where is pluto

Why would someone take Pluto away, Pluto was millions of miles away minding it's own business. Then, with a few words by a couple of lab rats (Oops! I mean scientists) , it's no more. I do not know what kind of proof they have, but they are going to mess up a lot of history books. What about Disney’s Pluto? He must be really mad. Hopefully they won’t change his name. I think these so called scientists need to find something better to do with their time. Maybe solve some problems on earth, help the environment figure out what to do with chemical waste. Find a way to solve our gas problem. Rejecting planets does not solve our problems on earth , that is what they need to pay attention to. Good-bye Pluto. You will still be in our history books and, of course, in Disney theme parks.

A friend of mine who practices Astrology says that "Pluto's still out there", and that it is simply a matter of semantics. IOW, while Pluto may not technically be a planet anymore, all that really did was change our scientific definition of it's status. Astrologically, it still has an effect on us, and while My Very Excelent Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas, has become My Very Excelent Mother Just Served Us Nachos, it didn't remove Pluto from it's orbit or cause it to cease to exist.

Default Not to worry

Cool:
not to worry because because the american history books are already nothing but lies, why do you think our heads are in a constant spin. In America, we have no clue as to what the truth is or how to go about finding it. If that is the only lie you are worried about the count yourself very lucky.
America still think that white men are more man than black men or any other men. ask white women the answer to that...........They hold the answer....Peace...........Eli........Not to be mean.........looking for truth myself.......

Thumbs up Maybe we should be glad Pluto got plutoed?

Pluto is kind of the symbol of Learning Things the Hard Way, though blowing ourselves up with nuclear bombs, and such like.

Maybe we'll actually start learning through joy, rather than pain?

Ever the optimist....

Heh it is yet another ploy to try and keep people away from learning the truth of our existence and future secrets. On december 21st 2012 PLUTO will enter into the age of Aquarius (among many other celestial lineups), a very important event. Astrology has been of great importance to the flowing of energy within our solar system - and thus - our bodies - ever since the beginning. The first people upon the earth knew this - sadly this knowledge has been suppressed from the average human and this is just further promoting the 'great lie'.

On a seperate note - you can't make a planet dissapear that easily.

Default Let us recall that astronomers named Pluto.

Let us also recall that astrologers take the mythology behind Pluto's name very seriously.

Regarding, "You can't make a planet disappear that easily," let us also recall that Pluto could make himself invisible! Ponder that!

The astronomers giveth, the astronomers taketh away; blessed be the name of the astronomers.

As someone with Saturn and Pluto conjunct in the eighth house, I've been plutoed more times than I care to recall and I, for one, could certainly welcome a little less plutonian life.

Maybe 2012 will help us put on the helmet of Pluto, i.e., integrate the dark stuff, so there's no longer an Underworld, rendering Pluto "invisible," who knows?

OTOH, maybe this is all just a load of horse pucky, who knows?

As the Buddha said of me,

""People with opinions just go around bothering one another."

Default 2012: Proserpine, a return to spring?

Quote:
Pluto eventually took a goddess, Proserpine, maiden of spring. He emerged from the underworld and swept her up in his chariot. Proserpine became goddess of the Dead.

Although her fate was in the hands of Zeus and she was only obliged to stay with Pluto for half of the year and return to her mother the other half, hence the change from winter to spring.
New Horizons Web Site
We can look at this from a winter ("yet another ploy to try and keep people away from learning the truth") or a spring perspective.

OTOH, is it even possible to integrate Pluto? He's set loose a whirlwind.

Quote:
The metal Plutonium is radio-active. It was discovered soon after the planet Pluto. It is not only used for nuclear bombs, it is deadly by itself. It deserves to belong to the god of Death!

Pluto
I have to believe it is possible to integrate "Pluto." Anything less is a counsel if despair, IMO.
