Across the globe, unjust control prevails -- in spite of revolutionary attempts of the past few years.
We have seen prominent examples this week, including Egypt's Mubarak now being acquitted of the 2011 murder-conspiracy of over 1,000 activists and protesters.* And in the United States (Missouri as well as other States), police continue to be acquitted of corruption and killing.
In astrological terms, stern Saturn (the scythe-carrying reaper symbolizing oppression) dominates (Saturn is still stubbornly transiting Scorpio and squaring Jupiter. And Mars and Pluto are in a Saturn-ruled sign - Capricorn).
Meanwhile, revolution continues. Uranus is at an exact square to Pluto again, clearly pointing to demonstrations (Uranus = freedom) against "powers that be" (represented by Capricorn-ruled Saturn in overpowering Pluto).
Those who know astrology can see that those who value freedom and justice will continue to try to demonstrate (in harsh, teargas-filled conditions). This is apparent in the patterns behind the turbulence.

What's Going on in Egypt?
As astrologers often write, outer planets like Uranus and Pluto often correspond to world events. They posit that the Square (extreme tension) between these two planets is indicative of revolt (Uranus in Aries) (Aries ruled by Mars) against traditional, entrenched systems (Pluto in Capricorn) (Capricorn ruled by Saturn).
I've been thinking about Egypt and changing events there, and now -- stalemate -- after massacres less publicized than the initial attention given to the uprising against Mubarak. Some, though not all, analysts speculate that conditions in Egypt are unlikely to improve for a long while: that, in fact, it is worse politically, and life there far more dangerous for most Egyptians than when Mubarak was in power.
Looking at this astrologically, the Uranus-Pluto square continues, though at times it is wider, and at others-- tighter: the latter making political conditions worldwide less stable and disruption more intense. Eventually, this Square is meant to dis-empower corrupt leadership and bring about a better planet. But in the meantime, it can cause violence and prolonged struggle.
Venus in Capricorn conjunct Pluto, however, only makes cold Saturn (what is outworn tradition) stronger. And the Sun having been in Capricorn as well (until the next few days when it will ingress into Aquarius) has been like an energetic wall, foiling revolution, and even installing more corruption, forming this stalemate.
