VENUS SQUARE PLUTO
Intensifying matters of love, attachment, money, power, and self-worth. Emotions may be intense, but at the same time confusing. We could be drawn into power struggles or other intense interactions. Secrets that are revealed could be disturbing by exposing the bargains hidden underneath relationships, desire, money, and attachment. Relationships can deepen, but only when people are willing to tell the truth without using vulnerability as leverage.
Emotional intensity and emotional safety are not interchangeable. We might be confused about what we really want. Some of that bewilderment could be due to being drawn into another's emotional reality too easily due to blurring the boundaries between self and other. This can reveal unhealthy emotional patterns or relationships where control, jealousy, fear, or insecurity has been hiding beneath the surface. Care can turn into leverage : a test disguised as a question, a reply withheld to see what happens. Financial disagreements can reveal deeper questions about control.
NEPTUNE SEXTILE PLUTO
This is part of a rare long-term series of sextiles that continues through the coming years, guiding us toward a more enlightened and empowered future, a collective shift that embraces both spiritual enlightenment and social empowerment. This generational influence is associated with profound shifts in collective ideals, spirituality, culture, technology, psychology, and humanity’s understanding of power and transformation. This marks the second pass (the first back in July) of a very long-term transit that will perfect 13 times in the six-year period from 2026 to 2032.
Ideas about courage, freedom, rebellion, and progress may require revision. Look beneath appearances and understand the deeper forces shaping our choices. Groups and movements that promised liberation may reveal their own hierarchies and power games. The charismatic rebel may turn out to have an oddly detailed list of rules everyone else must follow.
It's going to be hard to escape a feeling that what's happening now has happened before. What's unfolding now is infused with a kind of urgent inevitability. People often talk about historical cycles that move through our lives like an unstoppable planetary orbit, but the truth is they don't. We’re different and the world is different. It's something to keep in mind when life feels like it's moving towards a foregone conclusion.
