Dwarf planets

The ever expanding list of dwarf planets are clustered in four major zones – the kuiper belt, the scattered disk, the Sedna belt and the asteroid belt – gone are the days when the asteroid belt was a big deal in Sci-Fi. Today we can track these celestial bodies and see how their mythological characteristics influence the earth together with the planets. This is a new and fascinating area of astronomical and astrological research. Let’s take a look at some of the data we have. Not all of them have been named, many carry numbers – these of course are not used in astrology as the name gives the resonance we need for interpretation.

1. The Pluto Zone – Inner Kuiper Belt and Plutinos

  • Orbital range: ~30–50 AU from the Sun
  • Defining feature: Locked in a 2:3 orbital resonance with Neptune, like Pluto itself.
  • Key named bodies: Pluto, Orcus, Ixion, Huya, Rhadamanthus, Typhon, Thereus.
  • Role: Shadow processors, karmic underworld archetypes, exposing hidden power structures.

2. The Scattered Disc (Detached or High-Eccentricity Trans-Neptunian Objects)

  • Orbital range: ~30–100+ AU, highly eccentric, often with extreme inclinations.
  • Defining feature: Perturbed by Neptune’s past gravitational interactions; not resonant but still influenced by giant planets.
  • Key named bodies: Eris, Gonggong, Quaoar, Varuna, Salacia, Chaos, Ammonite (newly named).
  • Role: Outer trauma codex, chaotic rebalancing forces, creators and truth-bringers, restoring cosmic order.

3. The Sedna Belt – Detached or Inner Oort Cloud Objects

  • Orbital range: Hundreds to thousands of AU, well beyond Neptune’s influence.
  • Defining feature: Ultra-long orbital periods (thousands of years), possibly shaped by an unknown massive planet or galactic tides.
  • Key named bodies: Sedna, Leleākūhonua, 2012 VP113 (“Biden”), 2004 VN112.
  • Role: Galactic messengers, threshold guardians, awakening forgotten epochs of deep time and ancestral trauma.

4. The Asteroid Belt – Between Mars and Jupiter

  • Orbital range: 2–3.5 AU from the Sun.
  • Defining feature: Inner solar system remnants, many mythic goddess names, some promoted to dwarf planet status (e.g., Ceres).
  • Key named bodies: Ceres, Vesta, Pallas, Juno, Hekate, Isis, Lilith (asteroid form).
  • Role: Feminine principle, sacred law, devotion, soul contracts, balance of human and divine order.

We are still learning the significance of these bodies – but here is a ‘snapshot’ of how they are influencing us today. This snapshot for late July 2025 shows strong concentrations near the southern cone of South America, East Africa, and parts of the Middle East, many dwarf planets and archetypal bodies are currently influencing these geo-zenith points. Many are clustered around Sagittarius-Capricorn and Aries-Pisces zodiac sectors, highlighting themes of transformation, ancestral reckoning, and deep trauma transmutation globally. Of course we still see Pluto as a planet – and the most well known dwarf planets are Sedna, Chiron, Ceres and Eris.
