LADY GAGA
Core EA Paradigm
She’s Lady Gaga.
She’s not ‘Lady Behave Yourself.’
– Chris Rock
Lady Gaga’s initiation into international popularity and success in 2008 directly correlated with transiting Pluto conjunct her Mars which gave way to her quick rise to fame as a superstar pop singer/songwriter and social revolutionist. Her unique theatrical style, flamboyant, provocative behaviour, and gender-role transcendence captured the adulation of youth worldwide, particularly the gay community who made her an iconic figure. Being utterly different from the consensus, the shock value in her performances represented an impulse for liberation, freedom and change, especially to her followers of like-minded souls. Her prior Soul purpose provided a quickening to bring about a rapid acceleration of her personal growth, thus contributing to collective growth. A new voice would start to infiltrate the collective consciousness creating social insecurity for the consensus, setting new trends for the freedom and rights of the individual, incorporating a fresh new approach, and thereby shattering outdated psychological mores.
As a member of the
Pluto Scorpio generation she is bound up with the human unconscious, and for this reason can be perceived as unpredictable and shocking as she enters the taboo areas where others fear to tread. The purpose of her generation is to transform the collective consciousness making metamorphosis and evolution possible through penetrating into the mysteries of life, understanding the psyche, gaining insights into the conflict between good and evil archetypes, and healing the collective patriarchal distortions around sex, power, betrayal, loss and abandonment. The use of symbolism in her video/stage shows is of both a positive and negative nature, examples being taboos, secret societies, abuse of drugs, hypnotism, mind-control, elite symbolism, esoteric/spiritual symbolism, God, occult themes, all seeing eye, church of satan, murder, poison, orgies, acting robotically, and being out of control.
Natal Pluto Scorpio in the 11th house symbolizes an acceleration of evolution of the dynamics that her Soul intends to liberate from in order to arrive at her own uniqueness. Pluto in Scorpio reflects her deepest unconscious emotional security, and this is amplified in its conjunction with the
South Node and
Moon Scorpio 12th where she desires to purge separating desires in her journey toward the Source. Faced with her limitations or powerlessness, depending on the choices she makes, she will desire to grow and transform in an accelerated way, by penetrating to the bottom line of any dynamic that is preventing growth. Comparable to the expression of the Uranian component, she challenges society by exhibiting what is forbidden or taboo. With Pluto in Scorpio she is using her sexuality to re-empower herself, to overcome patriarchal sexual distortions, to deal with issues of abandonment, intense betrayal, loss, misapplication/violation of trust, sexual violation, and misuse of sexual energy.
She is accelerating the individuation of numerous functions or patterns correlating to unresolved
physical, emotional, mental and spiritual traumas, inhibitions or suppressions in the course of the current life:
- Sudden traumatic events that result in exposing the truth of her actual nature and altering her lifestyle. Intense manipulation by friends and lovers. Being rejected by others for no apparent reason. Betrayal, abandonment, sudden loss, misapplication of trust, psychological abuse, sexual abuse, hypnotism (Pluto, Moon, Neptune).
- Prior egocentric structure of her Soul, self-image, emotional dynamics, limitations, areas that she gravitates to on a repetitive basis because they represent security and familiarity (South Node).
- Philosophical beliefs, loss of meaning, religious indoctrination, irrational rage, (natural ruler of 11th house Uranus Sag 1st).
- Relating patterns, instinctive attractions, androgyny, gender role transcendence (11th house ruled by Venus Aries 5th, Venus ruled by Mars Capricorn 1st, Gemini rules 7th house, NN Uranus conjunct Chiron Gemini).
- Feminine persona, psychosis, neurosis, self-image (SNs Vesta/Neptune/Venus in Aquarius, Moon Scorpio 12th).
- Sex, desire, rage, mental trauma, special destiny (Mars conjunct Uranus).
- Intellectual and mental trauma (Mercury square Uranus, Uranus semisextile Pluto, Uranus rules 3rd house).
- Trauma due to societal expectations (Uranus square MC).
- Family trauma, childhood emotional imprinting, neurosis, inferior self-image, loss of faith, massive disillusionment, sense of detachment and dissolution from family roots (Neptune rules 4th house).
- Disillusionment of self (Neptune Cap 1st).
- Physical trauma, repressed sexual desires (Saturn semisextile Pluto).
- Misapplication/violation of trust, intense betrayal, manipulation by others, sexual violation, misuse of sexual energy, separation by death, emotional dependency (Cancer rules 8th house containing Lucifer).
Trauma to any of the above areas can cause a chain-like reaction. The above physical, emotional, mental and spiritual traumas are being purged through her North Node, a strong-willed Leo approach by taking charge of her career, creativity, ideas, and putting these into action, bringing them into reality, and giving them a sense of special purpose. She is attempting to heal a multitude of unresolved traumas by means of her creative talents that instinctively allow her to go beyond the old obsolete patterns. This healing takes the form of creating shocking lyrics, dramatic videos, containing bold social statements regarding sexual assignment, that really reflect her inner reality and what her Soul desires to liberate from. Support by her group of fans (like attracting like) promotes easy and steady evolution and liberation from past cultural conditioning patterns. She is experiencing an intense fruition condition in this lifetime in which her inner courage and strength allows her to express what is different and unique about herself (ruler of NN, Venus Aries ruled by Mars Cap 1st; Saturn Sag 1st; Uranus Sag 1st; SNs Uranus/Mars Sag 1st).
North Node Taurus 5th conjunct its ruler Venus means that these archetypes are not brand new, she has been working on these in prior lives, and will continue working upon them in the current life. Her current evolutionary intentions are to control her special destiny and purpose and to actualize it through the power of her will. With ruler Venus Aries tightly conjunct the NN, the purpose will be linked to becoming aware of her individuality in a social context, initiating relationships on an instinctive basis, balancing extremes, learning equality, and developing her individuality. She sees herself as her own symbol of transformation and power, and effectively transmits this message to her ‘group’ allowing them to grow and change along with herself.
Her
Lunar Nodes at birth had just turned Direct enabling a thrust forward to set into motion the dynamic outpouring energies of her Soul desires and intentions. Her Nodes at 0.02 deg Scorpio/Taurus are a culminating archetype meaning that an entire sequence of lives is culminating in the Scorpio/Taurus archetype. Regarding the number of aspects to Pluto, the evolutionary pace in this lifetime is geared toward the expression of the Air element, ideas, messages, communications (grand trine made up of Pluto, Jupiter/Vesta and Pallas in Air houses). Pluto conjunct the SN is a partial replay of the past, and mostly a fruition condition of these archetypes as a natural resource brought in from the past. With Mars sextile SN, Mars trine NN, ruler of NN (Venus Aries) trine Mars, her Soul intentions are actualized in an easy and steady manner creating a harmonious fruition between the past and future. The Pluto/Mars phase (a crescent phase sextile with orb widened) means a secondary life (not primary), a slowing down, and the planting of new seeds (like Taurus).
The desire for
gender-role transcendence (de-conditioning from Saturn) creates an inner vibration whereby she creates or attracts to herself individuals who confess their attraction to her, or individuals to whom she is attracted. The wide stelliums made up of Saturn-Juno-Uranus and Uranus-Mars-Neptune; Saturn opposite Chiron; Saturn sesquiquadrate Venus; Saturn trine Sun; and Vesta in the 3rd house (linked by rulership to the 1st house) illustrates the emergence of her de-conditioned essential nature through the 1st house physical body, the taking of new paths and directions, and the fulfillment of her sexual desires in an instinctive way. Taking her message of new-found freedom out into the world is symbolized by Mercury closely conjunct the IC in opposition to the MC which is ruled by Mercury, Mercury ruling the 7th house, and Uranus ruling the 3rd house. With the Sun ruling the 9th house, she is espousing the freedom of natural sexuality. She is learning to deal with her own emotions by receiving constructive criticism in a graceful manner rather than a willful manner, so that her purpose can be adjusted to the needs of the social system (Ceres bQ Sun, Sun inconjunct Pluto). With all those planets in the 1st house, including SNs Uranus/Mars, and Jupiter Pisces ruling the 1st, she is able to draw upon her instincts based upon Natural Law and relay that message to the world audience.
With Mercury, Saturn, Uranus, Pluto and Ceres all retrograde, she is a
Retrograde personality possessing a deep knowing of the necessity of making changes through her own unique and individual expression. With all of her Rx planets, she is never resting, always dissatisfied with the way things are, always in a perpetual state of movement and growth, so therefore the Rx aspect of her persona does not ever reach a state of inertia, but continues its action throughout this lifetime accelerating her natural evolutionary pace. Her
Mercury Rx means that she is a genius who had overdone it in the past, and so she is slowly down, “doing it her way,” in a Uranus-like fashion, rejecting or rebelling against external conditioning of how her Mercury function is expected to be actualized or lived. Thus she is putting her thoughts and ideas down into completely unique lyrics by drawing upon deep unconscious resources from the past (Mercury Pisces Rx). Since that Mercury is ruled by Neptune Capricorn 1st, those memories can be traced back to matriarchal lifetimes where she is drawing upon ideas from Natural Law (loop of energy: Mercury ruled by Neptune ruled by Saturn ruled by Jupiter ruled by Neptune, and so on, and the 1st and 3rd houses that contain these planets form a natural sextile).
The Nodes being of the Air and Fire elements are comparable to the
Star of David pattern in all the Air and Fire houses. Air combining with Fire means the inspiration to get a message across, similar to a sextile, which is energizing, stimulating, reasoning, objectifying, observing, and then pushing the practical application gained through that understanding out into the environment. We can see the process of the sextiles being amplied 6-fold in the Star of David pattern made up of 2 grand trines and 6 sextiles, forming a hexagon, the meaning of which is stability, harmony, adaptability, fullness and richness. Although the Star of David pattern is in the Air/Fire houses, it is made up of planets/asteroids with a feminine theme: Pluto, Neptune, Vesta, Venus, Pallas, and Ceres. Her mission to heal patriarchal distortions through the re-emergence of Natural Law is symbolized specifically by the SNs Pluto/Jupiter/Saturn all ruled by Saturn Sagittarius 1st, but also includes all the remaining Planetary South Nodes since they all share the final dispositorship of Saturn/Uranus Sagittarius 1st.
With
Lucifer in Cancer, anything linked with the emotional body can set into motion intense emotional distortions such as mother issues (Mother Monster, the unconscious emotional behaviour patterns of Moon Scorpio 12th ruled by Pluto), victimization, vindictiveness and wanting to get back at others. Positively, she has the ability to be the bearer of Light, to bring the awareness and inspiration of God to others, to powerfully help others transform their own emotional weaknesses (NNs Pluto/Saturn/Neptune 8th), and to act as a powerful role model by accessing the Capricorn polarity of emotional maturity. The 2nd house (opposite Lucifer 8th), ruled by Saturn Sagittarius allows the development of emotional security and self-reliance by getting in touch with and expressing her essential natural self. To recover the skipped steps (Lucifer t-square Nodes), there is a focus on the NN Taurus 5th, the development of self-worth and self-reliance to assuage and heal the emotional depths of insecurity and over-dependence upon others.
Uranus/Mars/Neptune/SN Mars are all conjunct the Galactic Centre indicating
Daemon origins within matriarchal tribes, cultures or societies based upon living in harmony with Natural Laws. During those times, men and women lived freely, naturally and equally, and sex was a sacred dynamic (natural Lilith Aquarius conjunct SN Neptune, Uranus Sag ruling the 3rd house, Chiron Gemini 7th, NNs Vesta/Uranus/Jupiter 7th). Her 3rd stage Individuated (3rd sub-stage) consciousness manifests a truly unique, gifted, innovative, and humanitarian purpose. The Star of David pattern expressing as individuated radiance symbolizes the awareness of her Soul pondering upon the nature of who she really is, and opening up her consciousness to the natural God’ess via the Natural Law of sharing, caring and especially inclusion.
“So we talked about growth, and that led us into this kind of scientific space,
and we started talking about evolution and the evolution of humanity
and how we begin as one thing, and we become another.”
– Lady Gaga
