Okay, so I’ve been feeling intense lately. Like, REALLY intense. And I finally figured out why – Mars square Pluto transit. I’m not a professional astrologer or anything, I just dabble, but even I could feel this one coming.
It all started last week. I woke up one morning just… angry. No reason. Just pure, unadulterated rage bubbling under the surface. I snapped at my partner for leaving a dish in the sink (usually, I wouldn’t care), and I nearly lost it at a slow driver on my way to work. That’s when I knew something was up, cosmically speaking.
So, I pulled up my trusty astrology app. Lo and behold, Mars (planet of action, aggression, and desire) was making a hard square aspect to Pluto (planet of transformation, power, and the subconscious). Basically, it’s a cosmic clash of the titans, and we mere mortals get caught in the crossfire.
Knowing this, I decided to be proactive. Here’s what I did:
- Acknowledged the energy: Instead of pretending I was fine, I owned my feelings. I told my partner, “Hey, I’m feeling really irritable today, and it’s probably because of this transit. Please bear with me.”
- Channeled the intensity: Instead of letting the anger fester, I found healthy outlets. I went for a hard run, hit the gym, and even did some intense cleaning. Anything to physically express that pent-up energy.
- Practiced mindfulness: I knew this transit could bring up some deep-seated issues, so I made an extra effort to be present and aware of my thoughts and feelings. I meditated, even if it was just for 10 minutes, and I journaled a lot.
- Avoided power struggles: This is a big one. Mars square Pluto can make you want to control everything and everyone. I consciously chose to let go of the need to be right and avoided getting into unnecessary arguments.
It wasn’t easy. I still had moments of frustration, and I definitely felt the urge to lash out. But by being aware of the transit and taking steps to manage the energy, I managed to navigate it without any major meltdowns.
The Results?
Honestly, I feel stronger and more resilient. I see the power of working with astrology and with myself. By facing the intensity head-on, I feel like I’ve cleared out some old baggage and made space for something new. It’s like I did a deep clean of my soul.
So, if you’re feeling extra intense right now, check the transits! You might just find a cosmic explanation, and more importantly, a way to work with the energy instead of against it. And hey, don’t forget to be easy on yourself, it will be fine.
