Global Financial Crisis Begins

Saturn Square Pluto (authority and power systems collapse)

The housing market collapse and subprime mortgage crisis trigger a global financial meltdown in September 2008. Lehman Brothers fails. AIG, Bear Stearns, Washington Mutual collapse. Credit markets freeze. Stock markets crash 50%. Millions lose homes and jobs. The Great Recession ensues. Wealth inequality accelerates.

Saturn rules institutions, authority, and responsibility. Pluto rules obsession, destruction, and transformation through crisis. Their square creates the violent breakdown of financial institutions and systems. The 'untouchable' structures of Wall Street prove fragile. Power concentrates as small banks fail and mega-banks consolidate. Plutonian death and rebirth of the financial system.
