Pluto Conjunct Venus (Jan-Feb 2021)

How is everyone doing?

We are in the leadup to Mercury RX and the Full Moon… sleep patterns might be a little bit hectic, it could be hard to concentrate.

At the time of writing (26.01.2021), the Moon is transiting Cancer. This might be making us feel the tension of this Full Moon energy a bit more, especially as its transit through Cancer will see it aspect the Aquarius stellium in an inconjunction. The inconjunction is awkward energy- like ships passing in the night. We might simply have no time for our emotions, or fail to understand what we are experiencing currently… Venus is still sextile Neptune, so there are a lot of things that are unclear at the moment! There’s so much room for misunderstanding. Do try and take a step back! Especially as we have another rather spicy aspect on the horizon, a keynote of the upcoming Full Moon in Leo πŸ™‚

Venus is currently applying to conjunct Pluto, and will be occupying the same degree at the time of the Full Moon. Now… those of us who know anything about synastry know that it might be time to howl like a wolf! Because: simply put, Venus-Pluto is obsession, obsession centered on what it is that we value. Is obsession a good thing? That depends on your perspective.

Obsession can lead to a lot of toxic troubles, a lot of headaches, a lot of hurt feelings and manipulative behaviour. However, obsession can be the impetus that we need to get to the core of something, to figure out our patterns and our blocks, whatever it is that is stopping us from manifesting our full power.

With Venus-Pluto in Capricorn, this obsession can be centered around what gives us a sense of structure, of power, of an enduring legacy that can be built on. So we might be thinking deeply about ways in which we can make some extra money… or we can be thinking deeply about ways in which we can form enduring partnerships.

We may, however, simply have the urge to go out and find someone intoxicating and exciting to be with- especially with Mars squaring the stellium in Aquarius, Jupiter amplifying and warming everything! Be warned: with Venus sextile Neptune as well, this is the kind of astroweather in which you might pick up something toxic. Equally enticing might be the idea of buying something gorgeous and expensive, or getting a bank loan. Venus-Pluto is a financially enriching aspect, but with Venus sextile Neptune I would hold off from any extravagant purchases. Neptune dissolves what it touches- Venus’s expectations can be unrealistic here. Please try not to simply buy stuff in order to make yourself happy because that may sap your power.

My advice to the is to definitely try and do something enjoyable, something to remind yourself of what you truly value and desire. This might be good astroweather in which to introspect about past toxic relationships, especially those which were Plutonian or Neptunian in nature. Mercury is RX soon and you know what that means- texts from the ex (never the one you might actually want to hear from, funnily enough!)

Please remember that control is an illusion. Without Pluto, without strong and primal force to bind us to our desires, there would be no new life. Without death and suffering, there would be no joy and no creation. We might have to go through some shit in our time, but it is worth going through this to truly find our strength!

Venus will be conjunct Pluto exact on 29.1.2021. I will consider this aspect to be in effect from 27.1.2021-1.2.2021.
