On October 10 Pluto turns direct in Capricorn, launching a three-month reckoning with how false power is being used in the world and in your own life. On January 21 next year Pluto returns to Aquarius for nine months, resuming the call for revolution. Then in early September 2024, it slips back into Capricorn for a final three months of Karmic Clean-Up, until in November it re-enters Aquarius for 19 years.

I see this 20-year passage of the God of Hell through the sign of Revolution as the Make-It-Or-Break-It Crossroads. It's become obvious to anyone paying attention that worldwide systems of government and leadership have become obscene twisted caricatures of what they should be. Here in the States, Government by Pharmacy causes people with hemophilia to pay $30,000 a month for the drug to keep them alive, which costs pennies to make.

The Ruby Heart of the Dragon: Sun Signs for Our Times is a complete overhaul of the zodiac, which tears down astrological clichés, and updates the twelve signs for our complex and changing times. Mark Borax introduces each sign as a rigorous journey from self-ignorance to self-actualization, which he dramatizes as seductively as a travel writer.



Drawing upon thirty-five years of depth counseling others through his astrology of the soul, and upon his wild wandering life, Mark explodes Sun-sign clichés to present a wholly original take on the zodiac. The Ruby Heart is part exposé/part travel narrative, which blends a dash of memoir into the author’s revision of the twelve-part art of being human.
