Remembering The Past So We Don't Continue To Make The Same Mistakes

The last time Pluto was in Aquarius, it was during the Industrial Revolution. The world changed in many amazing ways and the quality of life improved for people everywhere.

We saw medical advances, with the newly found ability to fly on aircraft, and drive in an automobile, with having easier access to clean water, better housing, sanitation, television, radio, and internet. So many great benefits that made our lives a bit easier.

I can't fail to mention, though, that history frequently repeats itself, the pitfalls of the era. We also saw pollution at its all-time high, child slavery, race for power and control. The gap of riches is deeper than ever before as people will billions of dollars watch others with nothing starve from starvation and die.

The industrial revolution era was also a time of not just mass production, but also waste, billions of dollars of perfectly consumable food being tossed out, more malicious, maladaptive behaviors emerged, personality disorders, alienation, unethical science.

Instead of being the problem and making things worse in some ways…

We need to be the answer by

finding the solutions.

We need to step up to the plate and live the life of which we want to see and live it as we mean it! The search for 'progress' should not mean the destruction of our future for humanity or our environment.

We all deserve an equal chance at this life… as equals!

Collectively, as humanity has been once before, and will always be, better off if everyone nurtured a sense of basic decency, empathy, community, and put more care into the public than it does putting its entire efforts into "advancements" and "trends" for the sole purpose of profiting and monetizing on every single thing for the sake of gaining power and control.

In Africa, they produce almost 50% of the world's cocoa. It is public and accessible knowledge that it is made of child slavery in turn, black slavery, which people like to pretend doesn't continue to exist anymore. There is an open lawsuit against Nestle currently and nobody seems to care.

We mustn't stay in our cozy little bubble of comfort, blind to these facts while lacking basic empathy as we turn our cheeks the other way.

We can talk about all those things we're so lucky to have which make us happy, as we're continuing to ignore the atrocities and the blood that comes tied to it. But being in poverty is painful and it will never be okay no matter what new advancement product can bring us.

I hope to God that I or you or anyone else never experiences getting roped into warfare as an excuse to steal your resources like the Middle East. Or being chemically poisoned, in the attempts to cure early cancers. Or a painful death by the Indian fighters opposing Massantos grasps.

Nor do I wish any one to be forced to work 20-hour days while in captivity, with no pay just so Betty can sit on Facebook talking about how lucky we should feel as the captive sleeps in a two-by-two locked room or a cage.

I hope that you don't end up as a part of a medical cruelty experiment such as being deliberately infected or experiencing psychological torture or something else for the sake of advancing medicine.

What makes you more worthy of not suffering from another? if you believe that many must suffer for the greater good, you art part of the problem, and I hope you have your swimsuit packed because it's gonna be extremely hot where you're going.

Most of the people who are reading this got lucky. Because there are some who will never get the opportunity to even know about this article.

Humble yourself

We can build things and make changes to benefit from without the heavy toil of suffering which follows our previous generational wrongful guided path.

If one day you or your child or a loved one ends up knowing that unfair and unnecessary suffering while in the mind frame that the pain is worth that advancement "for humanity," I hope you take it at face value with as much entitlement as you take on a phone.

All of that which was unnecessary and cruel during times when we had enough resources for everyone to continue to thrive on, is no longer an option for our future.

It is important to remember the past and the mistakes we have made to assure we don't repeat them again. It is without saying that we have all benefited from those advancements, but there also could have been more ethical ways in going about attaining those advancements.

So when astrologically Pluto enters Aquarius, we all, as a collective, need to put effort into looking for clean energy and coming up with better ways to manufacture products in ways that don't cause pollution or harm to another living being, animals included.

It is NOW the time to be the change you wish to see. It is by being UNITED that we can stand up and make the difference for a cleaner, safer, and more ethical world for tomorrow.
