Sun/Pluto is power that flows easily, due to a specific choice and piece of information. Confidence increases as you’re naturally drawn towards a subject and mode of communication that’s different from your previous choices.
The Sun and Pluto’s sextiles to Vesta in Aries confirm you’re on the right track via a sense of increased devotion- you know, without words and beyond logic, that this is special. This path, this thing you’re learning, is a potent matter that must be fuelled. It feels sacred because it is and there’s no question that you’re going to pour all your purpose into it.
However, Mars (ruler of Aries) makes a hard square to Pluto Rx. So here’s the simmering anger due to blocked actions or resistance to change. You want to do things your way or you’re clinging to something but the bigger-than-you force is relentless.
Resistance and insistence are (in this case) damaging. Because Pluto always wins. The transformation in your physical environment is happening, like it or not. Pluto Rx’s harmony to the Sun and Vesta encourages you to make a choice regarding your personal transformation – that shift in your purpose and focus. Don’t fight it – go with what you already know is sacred. Accept that something you own or are fighting to preserve is outdated/dying.
A Mars/Pluto square can sometimes indicate violence and cruelty, so keep your eyes open for a power struggle that intensifies to the point of survival. Conscious actions (Mars) are attempting to suppress inevitable evolution and this leads to an explosion you never saw coming. For example, the patient, placid individual suddenly erupts with frightening energy.
