Silicon Valley Bank Failure Astrology
On March 10th, 2023, Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) ceased to exist due to a bank run caused by its clients. I want to dive into how this is a perfect book-end to the start of Pluto in Capricorn - that started in 2008 with 25 bank failures - as an early warning sign of what was wrong with the system, hopefully giving us ample time to fix it. Many conventional pundits have drawn the link between the 2008 failures and SVB as well, further codifying the parallel connections.
What is most interesting to me is how perfectly the astrology explanation for the failure connects with the nearly exact timing of when things would get “sticky” for the bank. Since we have the date of birth for the bank (October 17, 1983), we can do both the natal promise and timing forecasts for the bank.
As always, there are infinite possibilities within a narrow fate. However choosing a lower vibration or flat out ignoring your fate will have terrible consequences. Most of us live out our fate - consciously or unconsciously (see my recent write-up of Pedro Pascal). Hubris - the imagined idea that we are greater than gods - also applies to astrology.
Three big themes I want to ensure I call your attention to as we move through the failure:
We are currently in the period I call the Great Structural Undoing, as Pluto moves from Capricorn to Aquarius. All our established structures - banking, government, taxes, healthcare, education - are being unwoven. They are each choosing a new expression of Aquarius (which will finalize November 2024). SVB is a symptom.
We are also in a great period of contagion. Owing to astrological historical analysis, Uranus / Aquarius is often the start of a contagion. Especially when accompanied by Pisces & Neptune placements. So from 2018 until 2026, we will see lots of contagion - as what happened with SVB.
We’re coming to the close of a profound shift of values as the Taurus / Scorpio nodal axis ends its run in October of this year. And tomorrow marks the preview of our Aries / Libra shift we move into next with the Eclipse on April 20th. If the values of an entity are not in integrity or alignment with the new, we’ll likely see the end of it. And this is what happened with SVB.
