Whether you believe in and follow astrology or not, the subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) energies of the cosmos are felt within our mind, body, and souls. Today marks a very intense shift in energy created and propelled by two very forceful energetic bodies going head to head in the cosmos.
Mars (the God of War) ruling over energy, drive, passion, and aggression, goes head to head in a cosmic battle with Pluto (the God of the Underworld) ruling over our darkest parts of self, our subconscious mind, and the anger we try so hard to keep hidden. This particular energetic battle causes a great intensity that triggers the aggression and fire within.
Although this energy is direct and at its most potent influence today, you’ve likely been feeling this energy build over the last few days. Both Mars and Pluto are Scorpio’s rulers, and as we are currently in the depths of Scorpio’s emotional waters, this fire added to an already very intense emotional storm could cause a few issues in our relationships.
Mars and Pluto are rulers of the current season, but Mars is currently positioned in Libra at a crisis point in the final degrees of the sign before it leaves Libra’s energy for Scorpio. Mars in Libra is adding an aggressive narrative to our mental planes and having a hard time balancing the energies to create peace and harmony in our relationships. Pluto is rooted in Capricorn energy right now, where the power struggles of breaking free from restrictions are the hottest energy topic.
So here we are in Scorpio season working on healing our subconscious mind and pieces of our soul, with mercury retrograde, having us look back on our pasts, reviewing, reflecting, revising, the mental perspectives we’ve been having, and Mars and Pluto decide they can’t put off their aggression with one another any longer. This is adding some Libra and Capricorn energy to the watery mix of Scorpio season and we will likely see this effect our relationships greatly.
This mixture of energies can see a rise of aggression, violence, and hostility, within ourselves and others, effecting the collective on a grander scale. It’s lighter aspects can reveal great strength, huge amounts of courage, and a potent power to overcome our fears. With everything in life, there is a duality that gives us options to tap into one side of the energy over the other.
This energy is very triggering, exposing our wounds and urging us to transform into more powerful beings. By using the aggression, energy, passion, and drive within us to face our fears, accept our controlling and manipulative ways, and see where they have been creating blocks for us in moving forward, we can essentially overcome the old narrative that has created a stagnancy in our progress to advancing our consciousness. Again, being in Scorpio season and having the ability to change our subconscious programming is a blessing in disguise when we use our darkness to lead us into the light.
