Writer's Block: Dwarf Pluto Planet

I thought the "redefinition" was very clever, because it solved the problem of classing bodies like Xena and 2 Pallas as well. The folk who will get put out by it are Western astrologers. Pluto was added as a planet (major influence) when it was discovered (as were Uranus, Neptune and Ceres). However, should an astrologer really pay attention to Pluto at all, if it's "only" a Dwarf Planet? In the end, it's awfully silly to care either way, as the planetary body (and its moon Charon) still exists as it always has.
