Moon Is In Gemini

Ah, the Moon in Gemini! It's like a cosmic game of Twister! The universe's way of saying, "Hey, let's juggle five conversations, two projects, and maybe learn to play the banjo, all at the same time!" Gemini, the celestial twins, is known for its duality and quicksilver nature. So, with the Moon hanging out there, you might feel like you've had one too many coffees, even if you've only been sipping chamomile tea. Your thoughts are likely buzzing around like a bunch of hyperactive bees on a sugar rush. It's not just a simple case of multi-tasking, it's more like trying to solve a Rubik's cube while balancing on a unicycle. And no, I'm not exaggerating! And remember, the Moon will be moonwalking (or should I say moon-running?) into Cancer in the next 24 hours. So, expect some emotional tides rolling in soon. You may suddenly feel like binge-watching that melodramatic series or hugging your pet a bit tighter. You'll switch from being an intellectual chatterbox to becoming the embodiment of TLC's "Waterfalls". No more juggling, it's cuddling time! But don't worry, this isn't a bad thing! Just a reminder that emotions are not your enemies. They're like those green, slimy aliens - a bit messy and hard to understand at times, but they can also be incredibly fun and enlightening. So, what's the takeaway here? Embrace your inner mad scientist today, experiment with your thoughts, ideas and that banjo if you have one. And when the wave of emotions come crashing in, don't try to build a dam. Let it flow, let it glow, and remember: even astrologers can't predict where your next burst of inspiration will come from! Remember, the universe may be a vast, confusing place... but it's also pretty hilarious if you know where to look. Happy stargazing!

Mercury

Mercury is in Aquarius

Mercury is prograde at 21 Aqu 09' 30", moving at 1.71 degrees per day, and is 207701508km away and receding.

Mercury Is In Aquarius

Well, howdy there, cosmic cowboys and cowgirls! Look alive, 'cause our fleet-footed friend Mercury has gone off and hunkered down in Aquarius. Now, I don't mean to alarm you none, but this here might just give your brainpan a bit of a stir. See, when Mercury, the galaxy's quicksilver gossip monger, shacks up with Aquarius, that old rebel rouser of the zodiac, well... let's just say things can get a mite peculiar. You might find yourself pondering the mysteries of the universe, like why don't we have flying horses yet? Or if the universe is so endless, where the hell are they keeping all the spare parts? Aquarius, bless its starry heart, has a knack for keeping its cool, like a cucumber in a freezer on the moon. So with Mercury passing through, you might find yourself lookin’ at your own heartaches and hang-ups through a brand new lens, one that could give you a clear shot at the truth. Don't be surprised if a few lightbulbs start flickering on up there. But hold on to your space hats, folks. 'Cause while this celestial shindig can help us see things as they are, it can also make us about as sensitive as a rock in a tumble dryer. That old cold logic can sweep away feelings faster than a black hole slurps up stars. You might find yourself needing an extra dollop of empathy sauce to keep from rubbing folks the wrong way. So remember, during this cosmic hoedown, try to tread lightly with your words. After all, it's a whole lot easier to fix a broken spaceship than a broken heart. Settle in, buckle up, and enjoy the ride. The stars are strange, but hey, so are we.

Venus

Venus is in Aquarius

Venus is prograde at 01 Aqu 58' 16", moving at 1.24 degrees per day, and is 216883620km away and receding.

Venus Is In Aquarius

Hang onto your TARDIS, star gazers! Venus has hitched a ride on the Aquarius express and it's dropping love bombs like a Dalek with a Valentine's Day card. Now, contrary to popular belief, when Venus hangs out in Aquarius, it's not all about the mushy-gushy, heart-eyes kind of love. Nope! It’s more of a Spock-meets-Kirk kind of camaraderie. Intellectual stimulation? Check! Friendship turned romance? Double check! You know how you've always thought of your friend as just that, a friend? Well, hold onto your sonic screwdriver because the lines are about to get blurrier than a Weeping Angel moving at the speed of light. You might start seeing them in a whole new light, like suddenly realizing that bowties and fezzes are, indeed, very cool. For those already in a relationship, worry not! Venus in Aquarius isn't about to cause a time rift in your love life. Instead, think of it as a chance to reboot. Rekindle your relationship by re-embracing the traits that pulled you together in the first place, like your shared passion for saving the world one alien invasion at a time. And who knows? A bit of space (pun absolutely intended) might be just what you need to appreciate each other's quirks even more. If you're single and ready to mingle? Fantastic! It’s time to attend all those alien conventions and intergalactic parties. Who knows, you might find yourself attracted to someone as different as a Cyberman in a flower crown. Just remember the golden rule: Keep it weird, people! And for the fashion-conscious among us, this is the perfect time to experiment. Throw on that impossible scarf, or perhaps some round glasses. And hey, if you feel like splurging on some high-tech gadgets, go ahead! It’s not like you're breaking any Laws of Time or anything. In conclusion, while Venus is in Aquarius, we're all a little bit Doctor. So why not embrace the chaos, make friends with a few aliens, and remember - love is a journey, not a destination. Allons-y!

Mars

Mars is in Aquarius

Mars is prograde at 03 Aqu 51' 13", moving at 0.77 degrees per day, and is 337298426km away and approaching.

Mars Is In Aquarius

Well, beam me up, Scotty, and call me Spock, because Mars is doing the cha-cha in Aquarius, and that's as exciting as a Tribble on triple espresso! Now, don't go reaching for your phasers just yet. This isn't a red alert situation. It's more like a cosmic shift that's going to turbocharge your brain engines and superpower your Starfleet of ideas. Mars, our planetary warrior, is like Captain Kirk in a debate - passionate, headstrong, and not afraid to rip his shirt for dramatic effect. But when he's in Aquarius, oh boy, he becomes more like Data - cool, detached, focused on logic. So, what does this mean for you? Well, if you've been stuck in the same old Starfleet regulations, it's time to warp speed out of there. Think about it, what would Captain Picard do? He'd boldly go where no one has gone before. And that's exactly what you should do. Forget the box, heck, forget the whole Borg cube! You're now in a universe where the only rule is "there are no rules." This transit is like your own personal holodeck. It's an opportunity to create the future you want, to fight for change and stand up for your ideals. It's about making First Contact with your own potential and exploring strange new worlds of thought and action. And while you're at it, remember that Aquarius is basically the Federation of the zodiac - all about unity, freedom, and looking out for the little guy. So, as you're charting your course for the future, make sure it's one that benefits not just you, but all species in your galaxy. So, grab your tricorder and set your phaser to stun, because Mars in Aquarius is about to shake up your universe. Just remember, the power is in your Vulcan mind-melding hands. Energize!

Jupiter

Jupiter is in Taurus

Jupiter is prograde at 09 Tau 26' 54", moving at 0.15 degrees per day, and is 783771510km away and receding.

Jupiter Is In Taurus

Jupiter in Taurus: A Galactic Rodeo

Well, well, well, look who decided to show up in the Bull’s playground. That’s right, folks, it's Jupiter, the celestial big shot of wisdom! Now, Taurus might not move faster than a sloth on tranquilizers, but when these two cosmic entities come together, it's like a sci-fi convention merging with a yoga retreat. Suddenly, you'll find yourself meditating in your cosplay outfit, realizing the Zen you've been seeking was just hanging out in your backyard all along. You didn't need to go to Dagobah for that... or did you?

Let’s be real, Jupiter in Taurus is like having Yoda as your personal life coach, pushing you towards your dreams and goals. So, dust off those bucket lists, it’s time to go do instead of try. And remember, there is no try, only do or do not, right? Just imagine Jupiter, in Darth Vader's voice, saying "I find your lack of progress disturbing".

Now, to the fun stuff. When Jupiter, the cosmic slot machine, hangs out in Taurus, the Wall Street bull, don't be surprised if you start seeing dollar signs in your dreams. It's like playing Monopoly with real money. But remember, even in this game of life, you can't always count on landing on Free Parking.

However, Taurus has a notorious sweet tooth. And when the planet of expansion comes into town, we might find ourselves more drawn to the dark side...of the fridge. Listen, I'm not saying you're going to start hoarding chocolate lava cakes, but it wouldn't hurt to have a Jedi mind trick handy for those midnight cravings.

So, my dear star travelers, while Jupiter is in Taurus, remember that your lightsaber—err, I mean wisdom—is within you, not in a galaxy far, far away. May the force, and the bull, be with you!

Saturn

Saturn is in Pisces

Saturn is prograde at 08 Pis 29' 01", moving at 0.12 degrees per day, and is 1600290364km away and receding.

Saturn Is In Pisces

Beam Me Up, Saturn!

Ladies, gentlemen, and celestial souls, brace yourselves! Saturn, the cosmic drill sergeant, has taken a detour into the dreamy realm of Pisces. Remember those daydreams you've been ruminating on? The ones about writing a sci-fi novel that rivals "A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" or opening a vegan food truck that even die-hard carnivores will love? Now's the time to dust off those dreams and give them a proper once-over. Grab your notepad, folks, because it's time for some intergalactic brainstorming!

Now, let's not kid ourselves, having Saturn in Pisces is akin to inviting Sheldon from "Big Bang Theory" to your psychedelic party. He'll be questioning your every move, demanding details, and probably asking why your dream doesn't conform to the laws of physics. But as intrusive as he may seem, his attention to detail could turn your fantasy into a reality. So go ahead, roll out the welcome mat for Saturn, and take notes. You might just find his advice as groundbreaking as the theory of relativity.

For all the daydreamers out there, Saturn's presence in Pisces could feel like having a triple shot of espresso right before bedtime – unsettling, to say the least. But fear not, fellow Earthlings! This is the perfect time to channel your inner hippie. Meditate under the stars, go forest bathing (it's a thing, look it up), practice yoga, or simply inhale deeply and exhale all your worries. And while we're at it, keep a dream journal handy - you never know when your subconscious might drop the plot for the next big blockbuster.

With Saturn in Pisces, we're getting the best of both worlds: the structure and discipline of Saturn, combined with the intuitive, imaginative energy of Pisces. So buckle up, astrological adventurers, it's time to navigate through this cosmic journey and make your dreams a reality!

Uranus

Uranus is in Taurus

Uranus is prograde at 19 Tau 17' 59", moving at 0.02 degrees per day, and is 2954476896km away and receding.

Uranus Is In Taurus

Well, well, well, my celestial friends, hold onto your space hats because Uranus is back in Taurus for another round of cosmic shenanigans! And before you start thinking about the astronomical distance Uranus is from us (I can't even count that high), let me tell you, its influence is as palpable as if it was living right next door. So here’s what you need to know: Uranus is like that eccentric aunt who just loves to shake things up during family reunions. And Taurus? Oh, Taurus, that reliable, stick-in-the-mud bull who likes his grass patch just the way it is, thank you very much. But alas, Uranus doesn’t care about Taurus' penchant for stability and predictability. It's here to give old Taurus a cosmic wedgie and drag him kicking and screaming into the future. Prepare yourself for radical changes in the financial sphere. You might wake up one morning to find out that your credit card is now a sentient being demanding a pay raise, or that your piggy bank has declared itself an independent state. Expect the unexpected, folks, because Uranus in Taurus is about as predictable as a quantum particle on a caffeine buzz. On a personal level, this transit may make you feel like your money and possessions have suddenly developed an attitude problem. You might find yourself asking, "Why am I paying rent to a toaster?" or "When did my shoe collection become a democratic republic?" See, Uranus is here to challenge our preconceived notions of ownership and value. So, my advice? Don’t resist the coming changes. Remember, change is the only constant in the universe, aside from the fact that every sock will eventually lose its partner in the laundry. Embrace the liberation Uranus offers and you might just find yourself on a path to greater stability and freedom. And if you're lucky, you might even find that missing sock.

Neptune

Neptune is in Pisces

Neptune is prograde at 26 Pis 19' 17", moving at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 4604249310km away and receding.

Neptune Is In Pisces

Alright, space cadets, buckle up because this is your intergalactic astrological weather report. So, Neptune, that big blue gas giant with a fondness for tridents, is currently doing its thing in Pisces. That's about 4.6 billion kilometers away from us, give or take a few hundred million km. And let me tell you, Neptune isn't just sitting around chilling, it's on a prograde roll, meaning it's moving in the same direction as our planet. It’s like we're all at a cosmic roller rink and Neptune is doing laps with Pisces. Now, you might be asking yourself, "how does this affect me?" Well, my dear earthling, when Neptune parks itself in Pisces, it's like putting on a pair of cosmic 3D glasses. Suddenly, all those petty arguments over who left the cap off the toothpaste or who didn't replace the toilet paper roll (looking at you, roommates!) seem even pettier. This celestial combo is like a neon sign flashing "UNITY" in the galactic sky. It's a call to stop playing the blame game and start focusing on how we can make things better together. You've got talents, dreams, and let's not forget those crazy ideas you get at 2AM. Now is the time to put them to work. Feeling spiritually inclined? Go ahead, sign up for that yoga retreat or meditation class you've been eyeing. Or maybe just create a sacred corner in your house where you can connect with the universe...or at least hide from your kids for five minutes. And while you're at it, don't forget to share your newfound wisdom with the world. After all, we're all on this spaceship Earth together, and Neptune in Pisces is here to remind us that we'll go a lot further if we row in the same direction. So, let's get out there and be the change we want to see in the galaxy. And remember, keep looking up, because you never know when Uranus might decide to join the party!

Pluto

Pluto is in Aquarius

Pluto is prograde at 00 Aqu 53' 17", moving at 0.03 degrees per day, and is 5358909329km away and approaching.

Pluto Is In Aquarius

Pluto in Aquarius: The Cosmic Remix

Alright, star gazers, buckle up, because we're about to take a wild, cosmic ride. Picture this: Pluto, the little rock star of the solar system that's been demoted, promoted and then demoted again (talk about an identity crisis), is now shuffling its way into Aquarius. And if you're wondering how far away Pluto is from us right now, let's just say it's 5,358,933,664.098603249km away - yes, I used a calculator, didn't just pull the number out of my space hat.

Now, Pluto, our misunderstood friend, is also known as the planet of transformation – we're talking major, life-altering, "holy supernova, Batman" kind of changes. And Aquarius? Well, it’s the sign of progress and innovation. So, when Pluto decides to drop by Aquarius for a visit, it's like the universe just pressed the "shuffle" button on your cosmic Spotify playlist. Life as we know it? That's so last zodiac cycle.

What do we mean by "transformation"? Well, we’re not talking about changing your hair color or swapping out your Star Trek collectibles for Star Wars memorabilia. We’re talking about soul-level shifts. It's time to Marie Kondo your life, folks. If it doesn't spark joy or serve you anymore, thank it for its service and kick it into the cosmic dustbin.

And Aquarius? It’s like the cool science teacher you had in high school, pushing us towards progress and innovation. With these two forces combined, we might see worldwide changes in everything from science and technology to civil rights and humanitarianism. Heck, we might even invent a teleportation device or finally meet some extraterrestrial buddies.

In our personal lives, this dynamic duo's influence will urge us to rethink about our place in the universe. It’s time to stop being the Sheldon Cooper of your own life and start thinking about how we can all live long and prosper together. Will you answer the cosmic call? Or will you just hit snooze on your celestial alarm clock? The choice, my friends, is yours.

Avoid hasty speech and things said in anger in the heat of the moment. Impractical ideas, nervousness, irritability and unexpected disruptions are what you may have to deal with today. There may be sudden changes in travel plans. Be extra cautious while traveling as accidents are possible through carelessness and impatience.You possess a quick mind, you are very intuitive, and you require a great deal of mental stimulation to keep from feeling bored. Preferring to be self-directed, you don’t always take advice easily. There is a part of you that loves to shock, challenge, and instigate with the things you say; however, this may not be a conscious process. Your mental energy and output is extremely variable–one day you might be capable of enormous effort and interest in a project, and the next day the opposite. This is largely due to the fact that you feel a strong need to be true to your instincts and intuition, and if you are not absolutely inspired, you don’t feel right working on a project–you might feel that you are “faking” it, and this doesn’t sit well for you. The problem is that in life there are always going to be routine tasks to complete, things we have to do that don’t entirely suit our interests, and so forth. School years may be challenging as a result of your disdain for a linear approach to learning, routine tasks, and subjects that don’t inspire you, not because of any lack of mental ability. In fact, you can have real flashes of genius and your ideas and perspectives are often very original. At times you can be very dogmatic. You have a tendency to be, or to appear to be, scatterbrained. Your attention span can be short, and as a result, you might often leave projects unfinished. At times you can have an irritable temper and need to channel some of your nervous energy into constructive pursuits. Take time to reflect on what you truly believe in, because many times you are too busy challenging established thought, or playing devil’s advocate, to get in touch with your own opinions and feelings. This way, your intelligence, integrity, and ingenuity can come shining through.Some Famous People with the Mercury in Hard Aspect to Uranus: Squares – Sigourney Weaver, Oliver Stone, Steven Seagal, George Clooney, Drew Carey, Bjork. Oppositions – Howard Stern, Voltaire, Henri Matisse, Billy Jean King, Robert Browning, Charles Chaplin, Danny DeVito.

Venus

Venus Conjunct Mars

There is a desire for love, beauty, relationships, and things that feel good. Desire is strong today and this includes the desire for the opposite sex. Be considerate of others today as you may express yourself too strongly. Use your creative energies and get involved with the arts, music or the theater. How about making a special meal for your significant other? Watch your spending today as you may feel tempted to overindulge and be too extravagant. Curb your potential for eating too much rich, sweet, or spicy food. Moderation is the key. Be refined and charming around women. Do not get involved in petty gossip or in competition with the women you know. Have fun at a social gathering, but remember, don't come on too strong or let your opinion of yourself swell so as to become overbearing and obnoxious.For people with a Venus-Mars conjunction in their natal charts, the blending of the feminine and masculine energies within is a natural process, although other aspects to the conjunction will tell the whole story as to how this is done. These people possess personal magnetism in spades. They live and breathe romantic/sexual relationships. It is generally easy for them to form relationships, unless the conjunction is severely afflicted. They ooze sexuality, and they are generally quite impulsive with regards to entering new relationships. Relationships are not only important to them, they require a fair amount of excitement, adventure, and passion in their pairings in order to feel alive and vital. With this conjunction, there is generally a pleasing blend of self-assertion and cooperation. This comprises some of their charm, in that they generally know how to assert themselves without stepping on others’ toes. In some cases, men with this aspect may be too dominating in romantic situations, and might gain a reputation for being “macho”. This is not always the case, however. For the most part, these people are quite direct about what they want in a relationship, and they are quite passionate when it comes to going about getting what they want. It can be a challenge maintaining perspective when it comes to relationships. These people are generally highly creative and are bent on finding outlets for their creativity. Their vitality and warm energy is something that can be felt by others, as if it lies just below the surface.Some Famous People with Venus conjunct Mars: Barry Bonds (in Gemini), Carmen Electra (in Gemini), Bette Davis, James Caan (in Taurus, also conjunct Uranus), Sally Field, Eva Gabor (in Pisces), Merv Griffin (in Leo), Kris Kristofferson (in Gemini), Bruce Lee (in Scorpio), Courtney Love (in Gemini), Peter O’Toole, Al Pacino (in Gemini), Stefanie Powers (in Scorpio), Sting, Uma Thurman (in Gemini), Vincent Van Gogh (in Pisces), Harry Hamlin (in Virgo), Sandra Bullock (in Gemini, conjunct the Ascendant).

Venus

Venus Conjunct Pluto

Your love nature may be particularly charged with emotion and desire. Possessiveness and jealousy are possible. Power struggles may be a part of your close relationships. Resist the urge to control your partner. Intense change in romantic relationships is possible.Your emotions, particularly when it comes to feelings of love and attachment, run very deep. Your personality is magnetic, and you tend to arouse strong feelings in others, who may find you intriguing or somehow offensive! And all of this before you even open your mouth.In love, you can be quite possessive and possibly obsessive. At the root of obsessive feelings are deep fears of rejection, loss, and betrayal. Your feelings often run hot or cold–your love nature is generally extreme. It’s hard for you to detach yourself when it comes to personal relationships, and this sensitivity comes from a tendency to take things very much to heart. You are certainly most charming when you want to be. Love relationships turn your world upside down. You are likely to experience love at first sight, as you tend to work on instinct when it comes to affairs of the heart. Your relationships often feel fateful. You easily put pressure on your partner, as you expect much loyalty and honesty in your intimate relationships. Be careful not to let your relationships get to a point where your partner is superfluous and you are working through your own inner demons through him or her. Certainly, you will learn much about yourself through your relationships, and you may not always like what you see. You will meet yourself (the “darker” side or inner demons) through your relationships, and it will be critical that you recognize it as your own “material” and not project it onto your partner. On another level, you may have a talent for drama, writing lyrics, music in general, and finance.Alternate interpretations:~You are extremely loyal to and solicitous of those you love, without a cloying sentimentality. Your values and thoughts center on love, which can easily become the hub of your life. Early in a relationship, you are apt to be jealous and possessive, but with time and experience this can be transformed into a higher, more mature type of attachment. You are willing to give your all to your beloved but demand the same in return. Your strongest desire is for an all-consuming love that will bring you satisfaction on all levels: emotional, physical and spiritual. With aspects to Mars or Neptune, there could be a preoccupation with or compulsive attitude toward sex. — Interpretation sample from the Heaven Knows What report.+ You may not be particularly sentimental but if you love someone, you love them completely and forever. You live on the emotional extremes. People are either important to you or they don’t even exist. Your feelings are deep and volcanic. You love power and control which is fine if you have learned to control yourself. You are magnetic and surrounded with an aura of mystery. You deal with groups and group resources. You may have leadership in some creative project or in some financial enterprise. You polarize people: they either love you or hate you but are seldom indifferent to you. — Interpretation sample from the In-Depth Profile report.*You have deep, compelling love feelings that seem irresistible and often irrational. Your love relationships are very passionate and intense, and you experience both agony and ecstasy in love. You are always changed in a deep, fundamental way by your love experiences, though this may come about through painful and difficult confrontations or separations. You are something of an emotional fanatic about things you care about.#You are the stuff of saints and martyrs because you engage in your beliefs with a fanatical desire to conquer anyone in your path. A physical love relationship can make or break your spiritual connection, depending on your ability to nurture the depth of feeling. Interpretation sample from the Your Spiritual Path report.Some Famous People with Venus conjunct Pluto: Ian Scott Anderson (Venus conjunct Pluto in Leo), Charles Dickens (Venus conjunct Pluto in Pisces), Amelia Earhart (Venus conjunct Pluto in Gemini), Jessica Hahn (Venus in late Leo conjunct Pluto in early Virgo), Phil Hartman (Venus conjunct Pluto in Leo), Victor Hugo (Venus conjunct Pluto in Pisces), Jeremy Irons (Venus conjunct Pluto in Leo), Liberace (Venus conjunct Pluto in Cancer), Heather Locklear (Venus conjunct Pluto in Virgo), Barry Manilow (in Leo), Dr. Phil McGraw (in Leo), Olivia Newton-John (in Leo), Sean Penn (in Virgo), Julia Roberts (in Virgo), Sarah Ferguson (in Virgo), William Butler Yeats (in Taurus).

Mars

Mars Conjunct Pluto

You may be tempted to bully people into doing your will. The spirit of competition is strong, but try to be cooperative instead. Much can be accomplished if you will use your energies and your indomitable will together, in harmony. Do not try to control people or events. Concentrate on doing your best and things will work out the way they are supposed to. People who are coerced to do your will, will at some time try to even up the score. It's not worth it. Avoid power struggles and be aware that someone might try to control you. If so, all you have to do is stand up for your rights.Your ability to commit yourself to a task or goal is tremendous. When inspired, you are able to draw upon great stores of strength and determination. You can be so single-minded and focused that you readily lose yourself in a particular task, possibly to the point of obsession! You can be very skilled at investigation and research. Quite automatically, you are interested in what motivates and drives others, which can make you a natural psychologist. You might find that you constantly challenge yourself to take on more and to do more. You might watch this tendency if it seems to take over your life, as you may never feel satisfied with your accomplishments. Your stamina and endurance tend to be stronger than most.You don’t take kindly to others’ attempts to bully or push you, and you can be extremely stubborn when pushed. You are always especially aware of, and sensitive to, others’ use of power and authority. Resentment can be a problem and letting things go can be very challenging. Your gut reactions are rather intense and emotional in quality. As you mature, you are likely to learn that detaching yourself a little helps you to be more objective and constructive.You might have some fear of your own anger, assertiveness, power, and drive, particularly early in life if your intense nature has been misunderstood. You are not always forthcoming about your intentions and plans, and you typically strategize well in pursuit of a goal rather than go after what you want loudly and directly. While this means you can out-maneuver practically anyone, and although your determination is admirable, you might watch for a somewhat paranoid tendency to keep your plans to yourself if this stems from fear that your intentions will be misunderstood. Whether or not you choose to take advantage of others is entirely up to you. There is an “all or nothing” quality to your nature. You put your heart into whatever it is you are doing, and although breaking ties or ending things can be challenging, once you’ve done it, there’s no going back.You possess a fascinating, alluring, and even commanding aura. You prefer that others see you as strong and in control. Allowing trusted people to see your more vulnerable qualities can take time.Your strong desire to make things happen through your own efforts can bring you much success. “What will be, will be” is certainly not your motto. However, this same quality can sometimes limit you, as you would benefit from more detachment and the discovery that some things can’t or shouldn’t happen just now.#At some point in your life you may feel that the gods or goddesses step in to impose changes on you. What you make of these moments determines your spiritual future. Generally, whatever effort you make will be well worth your time.Some Famous People with Mars conjunct Pluto: Kevin Kline, Sigourney Weaver, Ringo Starr, Yves St. Laurent, Brooke Shields, Boz Scaggs, Franklin Roosevelt, Paul McCartney, Sarah Jessica Parker, Melanie Griffith, Zelda Fitzgerald, Tony Curtis.

Notes about Transits

Mars is all about action, and where Mars is in our chart with transits is a place where we are prepared to stand our ground. Mars transits can be really productive, but they can also be angsty, aggressive, and sometimes come from a place of anger. It's important to pay attention to how you direct that energy. Mars transits can last for up to a couple weeks.
Jupiter transits enhance your life with optimism and forward-thinking, and lasting for about a month, give you plenty of time to take advantage. Bigger and better is Jupiter's way of thinking, and should be yours as well.
Saturn transits, on the other hand, are where we get a major reality check, and if we’re not ready for them, they can be pretty rotten. Of course, if we’re prepared and up to the task, Saturn transits can also bring very well-deserved rewards, too. Saturn transits last a bit longer than Jupiter transits—usually 2 months or so at a time, but with retrograde cycles, you could be looking at the same lessons three times over a 6 month period.
The outer planets, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto last for such a long time that they make long-lasting impacts on our lives. In fact, Neptune and Pluto can last for two to three years! Consider their effects, plan accordingly, and make them part of your life for the better.
