What Happened
In 1347, merchant ships from Asia arrive in Sicily, carrying infected rats. The bubonic plague spreads rapidly through Europe over the next decades. The death toll reaches 75-200 million people (75-200% of Europe's population dies, though figures vary). Entire villages are abandoned. Economic collapse and social disruption follow. The plague kills more than any military conflict in history.
The Cosmic Link
Jupiter rules expansion. Pluto rules death at mass scale. Their conjunction manifests as plague expanding across continents, killing millions. Jupiter's expansion (plague spreading globally, commerce spreading disease) meets Pluto's death function (mass mortality transformation). The medieval world is Plutonianly destroyed and transformed. Social, economic, and religious structures collapse.
