Pluto Sun Square Off
Photography still from the Tribute clip by Tenacious D
Hang on to your horns / hats darklings, as our two galactic power players challenge each other to more than a duelling solo. Under these clanging stars arrives a weekend fairly crackling with baptism by fire in the lashing tail end of Aries.
The Sun squaring Pluto always makes for interesting conversation. Of course it doesn't have to be a volcanic clash but this aspect can operate as a hair trigger, with a tendency to bring power plays or control dramas to a head. Its seething intensity delivers the kind of extreme emotional challenges that push us to an edge and a tipping point, from which we make meaningful change. Frequently long overdue and arriving with more fire than we thought we had left in us. Cue the blaze of glory et voila, transformation.
Fed on a steady diet of control masquerading as power for too long and the soul atrophies. Choking on the fear of losing control has the same effect. As does post modern persecution dressing itself up as virtue, or harsh internal diatribe heavy with judgement. All of these mercilessly chip away at our power and Pluto is having none of that. Not no more.
This quite frankly delicious collision of shadow and light surges through our power currents, enervating the bold and brave and likely electrocuting those unable to court revolution. That buzzing prod will make you move, one way or the other. The answers you seek can only be found in your shadow, Pluto's spiny fingers tapping in anticipation in your life and all lit up by the Sun.
Their tête-à-tête is prelude to a highly Plutonic weekend with Merc next in line to dial into the underworld before rebirthing through the heart of the Sun. His cazimi a reset in thinking to accompany our galloping evolution, delivered in the dark lord's signature style.
Can't wait. Bloody Marys all round, darklings. Everything turned up to 11. Listen for the crows and their cawing for change. Let that molten fire forge itself as steel. Snap, crackle and pop.
Power is not revealed by striking hard or often, but by striking true.
~ Honoré de Balzac
