As Mars transits its ruling sign of Aries, we experience Martian energy in its purest form. Directness, assertion, & warrior-like approach to things we find passion in.

In August, Mars will begin to form a tense & difficult square with Pluto in Cap. This is big.

(A thread)

Mars & Pluto are 2 very intense planets. How they differ, primarily, is this:

Mars is energy, aggression, & anger. Anger is HEALTHY when it is directed constructively. Anger is dangerous when ego gets in the way or when we hold onto our anger (resentment)... in walks Pluto.

Pluto shows us what happens when we incorrectly handle anger. This is where Mars energy turns into Plutonian resentment. This can manifest in different ways based on the individual. It can show up as control, compulsion, obsessiveness, resentment, shame, trauma, or rage.

A way to release our Plutonian intensity is to tap back into Mars. Mars seeks an outlet for our intense energy. Mars in Aries wants physical release through the body, so as we approach this Mars-Pluto square, commit to channeling your aggression out in an immediate & healthy way.

Your natal Mars will show how your unique cosmic make-up wants you to channel ur Martian energy so it doesn’t turn into Plutonian resentment.
