![]() The trine between Pluto and Jupiter spent most of April exact which would have expanded upon Pluto’s need to analyze and break down the old structure and transform the areas of health (medicine), service, and other Virgo topics. ![]() So these children are even more conservative than those children born in January and February with Jupiter now feeling constricted. In March of 1960, Jupiter moved out of its own sign into sober Capricorn which formed a wide sextile with Neptune and a trine with Pluto in Virgo. But both of these groups would have a heavy responsibility placed on their backs (Saturn in Capricorn and Pluto in Virgo), but also the ability to expand one’s thinking and with the Aquarius Sun, the ability to think outside of the box, definitely a skill that would help these children survive the wacky and surreal 1960s that awaited them. If the child was born when the Sun was in Capricorn, he or she would be more down to earth than the children born with the Sun in Aquarius who would just feel at odds here with possible squares to Neptune and inconjuncts to Pluto and the opposition to Uranus (Aquarius planet). We would not be changing the status quo no matter how exuberant for change we felt.Ī child born under these influences would carry this dynamic throughout their life-a sort of push-pull, wanting to trail blaze but stepping back to those things that were tried in true. While the Fire element wanted to blaze its way through the month, the Earth element brought in conservatism. With these elements in grounding or rigid Earth and enthusiastic or passionate Fire would have set off mixed messages. Jupiter in Sagittarius trined Uranus in Leo. We launched 1960 with a trine between Saturn in Capricorn and Pluto in Virgo sextile Neptune in Scorpio. However, the older Baby Boomers of marrying age were having babies and that’s where some of us come in, though my parents are from an older generation (Pluto in Cancer). We went from an American Bandstand or Ed Sullivan Show mentality where teeny boppers (Baby Boomers were the first teenagers and prior to this generation you were either a child or an adult) screaming their lungs out at the sight of Elvis then later the Beatles and other pop stars from those early years to the Summer of Love, sit-ins, and LSD. As the decade rolled forward, events grew in intensity, not surprising with the Uranus-Pluto conjunction in Virgo wanting to fix the world, and finding a lot wrong with the planet. We started out this decade on a conservative note with morals and behavior growing looser as we approached the end of the decade. In many ways, the 1960s was a holdover from the 1950s and we would expect that from a transitional year. Jazz, folk, and folkloric music from other parts of the world played a prominent role as did classical music as there were several virtuosos touring the world in the 1950s and 1960s including Canadian iconoclast Glenn Gould who ignited the return of Bach’s keyboard work.įamous births of 1960 include: Antonia Banderas, Bono (U’2), Jane Lynch, Hugh Grant, Colin Firth, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Sean Penn, Roger Taylor (Duran Duran), Stanley Lucci, Tilda Swinton, Kenneth Branagh, Hugo Weaving, Julienne Moore, Erin Moran (Happy Days), and Ru Paul, to name a handful. ![]() The British Invasion with the mop top Beatles leading the way was yet to come. On the music side, the sound was still Elvis, Buddy Holly, and the bluesy rock music or shake, rattle and roll. People were watching Fellini’s La Dolce Vita, Franju’s Eyes Without a Face, Naruse’s (Japan) When a Woman Ascends the Stairs or on the Hollywood side, Hitchcock’s Psycho, Kubrick’s Spartacus, and Annakin’s Swiss Family Robinson. The international cinema was hot cranking out movies from India, Japan, Canada (Quebec) and all across Europe. The French New Wave cinema was underway making international stars of Truffaut, Godot, and Varda. In Argentina, Israelis captured Nazi general Adolf Eichmann. The women’s rights movement, the Gay rights movement, and the Civil Rights movement were also underway. Cyprus also liberated itself from Great Britain so a revolutionary spirit was already spicing the air. OPEC was established, while several African nations were liberated from colonialism including, Madagascar, Congo, and Senegal. Overview: We started the decade with Jupiter in its own sign Sagittarius (exuberance), Saturn in its own sign, Capricorn (conservative, sober, authority), Uranus in Leo, Neptune in Scorpio, Pluto in Virgo and Chiron in far-reaching Aquarius.
