<\/a>The story of Bitcoin has the Uranus square Pluto story written all over it. Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008 and began to turn the structures of our life (Capricorn) upside down, tearing down our economy so that it can be rebuilt. \u00a0Of course our economy didn\u2019t actually break down and it\u2019s not being rebuilt in a healthier way. \u00a0In fact, things are progressing pretty much as they did before the Great Recession which means that we are heading for ANOTHER breakdown. \u00a0If a tornado (Pluto) tears down your home because it sits on a weak foundation (Capricorn), and you rebuild your house the exact same way, you can\u2019t really expect a different result. Uranus represents new ways of doing things, and it also represents technology. \u00a0Uranus is in Aries right now where it is radicalizing individuals and forging fresh new ways of innovating our society. \u00a0Because it is in a challenging aspect to Pluto in Capricorn right now, these fresh new ways are challenging the old ways and potentially leading us to radically different forms of business entities, family structures, and money. One such radically different forms is the Bitcoin<\/a>, a form of currency that lives exclusively on the Internet. \u00a0There are no actual coins, and the value of the Bitcoin isn\u2019t tied to anything tangible. \u00a0It isn\u2019t administered by any state or nation (Capricorn). \u00a0It is a purely Uranian form of currency. \u00a0It\u2019s an interesting \u201ccoincidence\u201d that Bitcoin was originally conceived in 2008 when Pluto entered Capricorn. \u00a0But its use as actual currency didn\u2019t begin until Uranus entered Aries in 2010 and began the square to Capricorn. Of course, our whole financial system is not that different from Bitcoin. \u00a0In our family we hardly ever see any real currency. \u00a0Our salary is automatically deposited into our account. Our bills are automatically drafted. \u00a0We pay for everything with a credit card and then pay the credit card every month online from our bank account. \u00a0Our financial world is already on the Internet. The fact is, as the Onion pointed,out<\/a>, \u201cmoney is, in fact, just a meaningless and intangible social construct.\u201d At one time our currency was actually tied to gold and silver, and the dollar bills were a representation of a tangible currency that had intrinsic value. \u00a0But in today\u2019s world, money is just an idea \u2013 an agreement that something has value. On March 18 of this year a division of the US Treasury, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, attempted to assert control (Pluto in Capricorn) over this independent currency (Uranus in Aries), something that Bitcoin is resisting<\/a>. Meanwhile, the aggregate value of Bitcoin is now somewhere around $1 billion and the currency is in somewhat of a bubble. \u00a0Hedge fund investors<\/a> are seeking out Bitcoin plays. \u00a0When the financial establishment (Pluto in Capricorn) takes ownership of Bitcoin (Uranus in Aries), the currency will lose its anti-establishment qualities and become a part of the stodgy status quo. This will help Bitcoin to succeed as a market currency, but at the cost of losing its independence \u2013 the classic Aries\/Capricorn dilemma.<\/p>\n
