Pinches & Punches of Power: Mars/Pluto square (Aug 28)


Read up on my past post on the Mars/Pluto Square for a background to tomorrow's energies.

I wanted to add that tomorrow is about Desire - Pluto is our soul's hungering, our deepest need in this life, our soul's craving. Mars is the channel through which we find the energy to go after what we desire. Pluto = the need. Mars = the enabler.

Tomorrow, desire becomes a focal point. Suddenly many people find themselves at the mercy of insatiable needs. The more you've repressed, the more is likely to come up. Violence manifested tomorrow is a sign of desires that have reached fever pitch and must be satiated and experienced.

We have to let dramas play out - there's no stopping this energy from hitting its max, unless we spend today and the better part of tonight and tomorrow, going through our souls (how many of us do that?!) and seeing what has to go, and what is keeping us from a connection with ourselves and the Source of life itself (call it God, or the Universe or whatever).

We have two roads - one takes us towards ourselves and our Souls
The other believes we are disconnected and takes us further away (or so it seems)

Conflicts are a sign we're butting heads with these two paths. Egos get in the way. Pluto in Sagittarius (beliefs) clashes with Mars in Virgo (the 'right' way). Neither can win, but both will fight it out, and be reflected in situations on Earth which reflect this - from as simple as couples arguing over how something is cleaned or who should scrub the toilet to larger conflicts where religious groups enforce their belief (Sag) on others who aren't as 'pure' (Virgo).

Church is no sanctuary and neither are our halls of Education - knowledge cannot prepare us for the Initiation of the Soul. It will find its way to the light somehow - and tomorrow this is what it's all about, the darkness being brought into the light.
Sexual energy reaches fever pitch - manifested for some as rape, s&m games and the exploration of Taboos.
Occult energy is high - tarot readings reveal amazing insights for example. Psychics pick up a lot of unfinished 'stuff' in peoples energy fields
Aggression skyrockets - gyms should be packed to avoid people nuking each other
Therapy is needed - we can clearly see what we are desiring, wherever our resistance lies, or our obsession can be found


How do we go after (mars) what we crave (Pluto). Is it healthy? Why are we so angry? What can we do (mars) to transform (Pluto) the situation?

Recycle your life - stick it all in a pot and see what blends together. The oil of our old, karmic wounds will rise to the surface so we can chuck it in the garbage finally. If we're smart that is.

Pluto represents a culmination of what our Soul has been seeking through many lifetimes - Mars clashes tomorrow to edge us further on - to achieve what it is we want so we can be done with one phase of existence (or lifetime). Maybe the ones who leave the earth plane in the next few days are ones who completed their assignments - whilst the ones of us left below are still battling our egos and trying to find out way back to our centre?

In the end - desire is either thwarted or experienced, in order to teach us the necessary lessons of evolution.

When do we know when to stop? Perhaps we won't, but we'll find our way no matter what.

Tomorrow - look at your darkness, feel your passion, dictate your own direction, but allow others their own room too. It doesn't need to be so drastic! Take out the trash. Clear the deck. Have a fire ritual (Pluto is in Sag a fire sign, after all) and clean up the roughness of your life (Virgo loves a clear space).

With at least one clear room to sit in and contemplate we can all avoid a major clash.

Enjoy a spirited and soulful day, channel some energy (it needs to break free!) and prepare for a Soul initiation.

Love,
Neil
