Although the Jupiter Uranus conjunction has us starting off on a new seeding moment of courageously trying new things and taking leaps of faith, the Sun in Taurus is forming a square to penetrative Pluto in Aquarius today (April 21st), giving us a more intense and perhaps anxiety-inducing feel.
Pluto is a planet about what’s beneath the surface & what has yet to be revealed. It can speak to where we feel a sense of crisis, insecurity, or heaviness and what underlying tensions are present.
It’s a good time to be honest & vulnerable with those you care about, ask for care & reassurance if you need it, & probe deeply into anything that may be unsettled inside of you.
It could also be a good time to address problems that you’ve been sweeping under the rug or ignoring. Pluto has a critical eye for the unsaid and unexamined.
That being said, Pluto can also heighten insecurities that are rooted in the imagination or in the lens of our past.
Regardless of whether the monsters are real or not, it’s a good time to:
-recognize any unsettling or uncomfortable emotions
-highlight where they are coming from, even if the stories are from a warped view of reality from your own triggers
-communicate your experience to someone trustworthy (without making assumptions or engaging in blame-behavior)
-be with yourself
-be with others and their big scary feelings too
And if questions or thoughts that feel of life or death stakes come up, be with those as well.
This could be a time that you create safety around being vulnerable in your relationships, as you learn to lean on those you love and ask for what you need.
