About this entry
A mythological division of the elements in Adams 1930 sends fire to Hades or Pluto, and the Pluto in her sentence is the god. Leo counts as a fiery sign in the later manuals, which invites a connection she never makes about any planet or any sign. Her line belongs to myth and has no astrological standing.
From between 1937 and 1939 up to sometime between 1956 and 1958 Pluto kept to this sign, around nineteen years, and each birth in that time shares it. These are the first births for which astrologers knew from the start of the stay that the planet existed. The Sun owns Leo in Ptolemy, and nothing there speaks to Pluto.
Modern popular astrology often speaks of this pass as a self-assured, self-expressive group. The idea is a modern label, and no one's personality follows from their birth year.
