Okay, so I’ve been feeling all the feels lately, and I finally figured out why: Moon conjunct Pluto transit. I’m not a professional astrologer or anything, I just like diving deep into this stuff when I notice shifts in my energy. And boy, has there been a shift.
It started a few days ago. I just felt…heavy. Like I was carrying around this emotional backpack full of rocks. I’m usually pretty upbeat, but suddenly I was feeling super introspective, and honestly, a little bit gloomy. I even started digging up old memories, things I thought I’d totally dealt with, but there they were, bubbling back to the surface.
My Deep Dive Process
First, I grabbed my journal. I always start there when I’m feeling off. I just started free-writing, letting all the messy thoughts and feelings pour out. No judgment, no editing, just pure emotional vomit on the page. It felt…good, in a cathartic sort of way.

Then, because I’m a bit of a nerd, I jumped online and checked my astrological transits. And boom, there it was: Moon conjunct Pluto. I’ve been through this transit before, so I kind of knew what to expect, but it still hit me hard this time.
Knowing what was going on astrologically helped me frame things. It wasn’t just “me being crazy,” it was this powerful planetary energy stirring things up. So, I decided to lean into it instead of fighting it.
- I spent a lot of time alone. I mean, a lot. I canceled plans, turned off my phone, and just sat with myself. I meditated, I listened to music, I cried (a lot!), and I just allowed myself to feel whatever needed to be felt.
- I also got really curious about my shadow self. Pluto is all about transformation and the hidden aspects of ourselves, so I started exploring some of the things I usually try to avoid, like my insecurities, my fears, my less-than-perfect traits. It wasn’t always pretty, but it felt necessary.
- I connected with the past, the hard parts, and just acknowledged them, without judgement, and eventually I let it go.
Honestly, it’s still ongoing. I’m not magically “fixed” or anything. But I feel like I’ve moved through a lot of heavy stuff. I’ve uncovered some hidden truths about myself, and I’m starting to integrate those shadow aspects. It’s like I’ve cleared out some emotional clutter, and now I have more space for growth and light. It’s been intense, but I’m grateful for the experience. It’s a reminder that even the tough transits can be opportunities for deep healing and transformation.
