Mercury, Mars and Venus conjunct Pluto in Aquarius.
New Timelines.
The volumes of talks we have had about shifting paradigms, the anticipation and the nervous curiosity in the last years are finally entering our lives from the most curious angles. Of course I am talking about Pluto in Aquarius, but Pluto was in Aquarius in the spring of 2023 you may think. Yes, but in sort of isolation, no planet other than the Moon touched Pluto directly, there were some moments of tension from the distance, bells faintly ringing.
Starting from February 5th Mercury, Mars and Venus are going to enter the fixed air domain of Aquarius and each meet Pluto at 0º for the first time in over 200 years, and that is something to make a note of. Each conjunction to Pluto in Aquarius for the next 20 years will gradually tell us a story, it is a story about Air and about new perceptions of time. Air element represents communication, movement, ideas and ideologies, freedom and individuality, words, technology, space, all the apps and search engines, AI, clean air, polluted air, different languages, non verbal communication, cerebral methods, and so on.
Mercury enters Aquarius on February 5th and meets Pluto straight away, bringing forth the first wave of insights, disruptive news and uncomfortable epiphanies that will continue to roll in on yearly basis for the next 20 years. It is a slow unfolding, the peeling off layers of our mental collective conditioning. Mercury in Aquarius is a quicksilver energy, shaking our nervous system and catalyzing a new way of dealing with information and taking apart old ways of communicating. These Mercury/Pluto conjunctions are going to put us all in touch with each other in radically new ways. If you are ruled by Mercury (Gemini and Virgo risings) or you have Mercury in the first decan of Aquarius ( 1-5 degrees) you are on the front lines of these Mercurial changes. Mercury in Aquarius seeks to grasp what is beyond our immediate perceptions of reality, this is a placement that pushes the boundaries of what we know to be true. This Mercury wants to roam freely in the space of infinite potential, set goals that are far reaching and communicate about ideas that will elevate our collective experience.
On February 13th Mars enters Aquarius and meets Pluto the next day. We are going to have Mars/Pluto conjunctions in Aquarius every 2 years till 2043. This energy is a true force in its capacity to clear and destabilize spaces that are not allowing people to recognize their true purpose and potential. It is going to catalyze events and forces to show us how misdirected our energy and courage has been for the longest time. The need to win at any cost is the underlying theme of this transit, but the notion behind winning is going to change through the years. Mars and Pluto can be ruthless, as they both often exist in absolutes, and that is a dangerous terrain. This aspect denotes the swift and inflammatory unfolding of events in the face of oppressive forces. It also can fire us up in a whole new way when it comes to our goals and the more unconventional visions of the future. The power here is found in the choice that is not made because of the mounting external pressure, even if it is the right direction of our energy. Remember your timing is yours only and a lot depends on the quality of boundaries you mastered while Pluto was in Capricorn. It’s you and your timelines, do not let others meddle in it.
On February 16th Venus enters Aquarius and you guessed it, conjuncts Pluto at 0º degrees the next day. How peculiar that we have a planet that rules our values, joys and comforts, closing the round of these conjunctions. The meeting of Pluto and Venus will sift through us, through our values, our not belonging wounds and will gradually lead us to transform our values in accordance to the global changes that we all have serious stake in. Venus in Aquarius seeks a value of belonging that is non restrictive. To choose the community one belongs to is not an easy task. This task requires setting very clear boundaries with those you share common visions and joys, and that skill is what allows freedom. Venus in Aquarius values both freedom and belonging, the key is measuring the distance between two, so you have plenty of fresh air and a proper vantage point to see the fullness of another.
Observe what happens this February, it is going to gain more traction with each year, and it begins this month. If you have planets or points between 0º and 5º degrees of fixed cross ( Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) you may be more attuned to this first wave.
