5 Revealing Stories of the Sun Opposite Pluto

Transcript:

Hey everyone, this is Acyuta-bhava from Nightlight Astrology. And today, we are going to talk again about the Sun's opposition to Pluto. I covered this yesterday. We took a look at both Mercury and the Sun opposite Pluto. And I covered it in terms of, I think, five different themes that you could watch for with this archetypal combination will refresh on the timing of this transit and give you a look at the real-time clock today. And then what I decided I would do is tell you the five most common stories that I hear from my clients, my natal chart clients, when the Sun and Pluto are forming, or when I should say when transiting Pluto is forming any kind of hard aspect to the natal Sun. This can be really helpful because it's not there's not always a one-to-one correlation between the way that you will feel a Sun Pluto transit on, you know, a Tuesday. And the kinds of things that people will experience when they have Pluto opposing or square conjoined the Sun in their birth chart, because one lasts of, you know, a week and the other one can last a year and a half or two years even. So they're not exactly parallel. But the value in talking about Pluto Sun transits and telling you, you know, some of the most common things that I see from Pluto Sun transits in my client's charts is that it just further can highlight what you might notice or what kinds of themes you might see. And it kind of educates you about the trends at a deeper level. At least that's what I hope it does. So that's what we're going to do today.

Alright, so we are looking specifically at the transit of the Sun in Cancer opposing Pluto in Capricorn. So this takes place today, July 19. But you will; you probably have been feeling it over the past weekend, especially with Mercury also going through the opposition to Pluto. It's kind of very similar in some ways. And if you for more on that, watch yesterday's video for the start of the week. But as the week goes on, you'll be continuing to feel Pluto and the Sun opposing one another until about Friday, when the Sun enters the sign of Leo, and then the dynamic changes. So with that being said, let's take a look at the real-time clock and just refresh on what this actually looks like in the sky. So you can't see Pluto; Pluto's invisible; what does it look like in the chart. So here's the Sun opposing Pluto, from cancer to Capricorn. That's July 19. But it lasts all the way until Friday. So you'll be feeling this all the way until Friday. Let me just advance the wheel a little bit. You can see here's Thursday. And by Friday in the afternoon, you can see the Sun is culminating at 2957 cancer, and by later in the evening on Friday, we'll be moving into Leo, its home sign. Thankfully, if you've been dealing, if you feel like you've been dealing with a lot of you know the heaviness of the Cancerian, kind of emotional watery energy, and it's not a place you like to hang out. You know, you might like fiery Leo a little bit better, especially if you're a fire sign. Mercury's also having just entered the sign of Leo as well.

So remember, don't forget to go back into my archives and check out the Planets in Profile series. I have a video on Mercury in Leo; I have a video on Venus in cancer; Venus has just entered the sign of cancer. So you know, those are always good resources if you just want a little bit more insight about that planetary ingress into the next sign.

But today, again, we are taking a look at the five stories that I hear the most from Pluto Sun transits. So we're talking about when transiting Pluto has makes a conjunction square or opposition to the Sun in your natal chart; what kinds of things am I used to seeing? What kinds of stories am I used to hearing from my clients? This should hopefully give us some more insight into the transit at hand. So there are five of them that I took the time to write out. And I think these summarize it, there are some others, but these are probably the ones I see most consistently. Like if you're writing a textbook on what to expect from Pluto, Sun transits, you would probably include these at least in my book.

So number one, when a client comes to see me, and they're in the midst of a Pluto two Sun transit in their natal chart, I notice that there are there will be moments of personal or professional empowerment or both. Oftentimes it's the same thing if you're achieving something or accomplishing something in your career; it probably feels like a great moment of personal empowerment as much as it feels like a professional. Like, like you're, you're leveling up at work, and sometimes that's coinciding with you growing as a person. The word transformation is, you know, the quarter jar word for, for Pluto, transformation, death, and rebirth; I make, I sometimes joke with my students that if you're going to become an astrologer, you have to find different ways of talking about the planets and don't always use the exact same words. I think when a person hits a moment of peak accomplishment in their career with a Pluto transit, it's probably because they have had to work through some really deep and intense challenges. Those challenges could be in any other area of life, but somehow they come; those challenges come at the exact same time that you're pushing the rock up the hill, toward a moment, like a pinnacle in your career.

So, you know, it's often the grandfather dying, and the, you know, someone you were really close with, let's say, at the same time that you are up for promotion to, you know, like, let's say, moving up to middle management or something, the two happen at the same time, and there's this feeling of arduous, heavy, deep, dark, intense feeling that you're becoming a completely new person. And it's because you're grieving, and you're letting go of someone, and you're also, you know, taking the next step in terms of your advancement at work. So, I say personal and professional empowerment because there's a sense of having gone through a trial with Pluto, having succeeded, or having worked through a period of difficulty. And coming out the other end, you feel stronger. You feel like I just did that. And usually, there's a feeling, or like an aura of fate that surrounds these Pluto Sun moments, a fated encounter, you see something, you do something, and it just feels like, yeah, that was fate. You know, there's that was a twist I couldn't have seen coming. And stress that I feel like I had to go through, and an accomplishment that felt like a reward but a test at the same time.

So Pluto, when Pluto hits the Sun, there are great strides that are taken off in your career, you'll see people gaining that starting their company that they that you know their own business, or getting a promotion or, you know, you realize something about yourself and your own capabilities that you didn't think, you know like I didn't know I had this in me kind of feeling. So Pluto is drawing out this empowering, you could say the solar or heroic dimension of our psyche. I can do this; I don't think I can; it's heavy, it's dark. I'm just I'm scared it's there's something faded and like a test, and I have to go through it a trial and tribulation. And it's by running that gauntlet and coming out the other side that people often feel that's where we get the word reborn from; it's an easy word to use. And I'm not like against that. I don't mean to sound like I'm against it, but that this is what we're actually described. Why do you feel reborn because you've gone through this whole trial period of trials and tribulations, and you've survived somehow, Pluto is always making you have your it's always forcing you to survive something and a season of your life and episode of your you know, like a chapter in your life. That's just wow; it's full on. So personal and professional empowerment through trials and tribulations.
That would be the number one thing I see these aren't necessarily ranked. But if I had to pick one, this was the very first one that I wrote down. And I think it's because it's the one I see the most.

Number two. Now what comes along with this, oftentimes, is the trial or the tribulation that sort of precedes or is a part of a moment or season of personal and professional empowerment. But not always. Sometimes Pluto transits are not necessarily about some great accomplishment, but more just about the confronting of one's, the shadow of one's ambitions, desires, goals, and ego; now, ego the whole chart is the ego when people say, oh this planet or that planet is the ego No. The ego literally just means I, and the chart is a living you. You know, divinity story sort of planetary picture of everything that is going to be defining your character, your fate, your destiny. So there's not really one part of the chart or one planet that is more ego than another.

So when we talk about the Sun and ego, what we mean is the ego insofar as your ego is defined by or related to the things you want or desire, or the things that you are ambitious about, or that you are trying to achieve, like the protagonist in a novel or a film that has a set of desires or actions or fears that somehow drive the plot forward. So when we might have to face fears under a Pluto Sun transit that hold us back from our ambitions, we might have to face the dark side of our own ambitions, as in I want to be so special and powerful, but there's some kind of selfishness in this. The goals that we have, and the shadow of those goals and desires, or I want this or I want that, and I'm not considering how it may affect someone else.

So I've seen again like this one is so common; I swear to God, like every client, every other client, I see going through a Pluto Sun transit is going to have to face some element of their own ambition or their own desires, or wishes or their heroic story that they have about their lifetime and what they're trying to, you know, accomplish or do or that the sense of calling. And to whatever extent there's something dark, unseen, or unconscious about it, they will face that you'll have to go through it and come to understand why where your motivations come from, why do I want this to begin with? Is it healthy or not really. Now that can come alongside moments of great personal and professional empowerment. Again, it's as though one leads to the other by examining your motivations and sort of clarifying them, purging them of anything that's toxic; sometimes, you take really big steps forward. But the confronting of the darkness in your plotline. That's a safe way of describing it.

Number three is an increase of wealth, Pluto. The word Pluto means riches. And one of the things that is associated with Pluto transits is money; you'll see people coming into success in business, or, you know, buying a piece of land or property, or getting a getting, you know, promoted and hence earning more money, making a big investment. But I've again, so free, and it's usually not losing money, there might be shadows around money, like spending too much or maxing out credit cards or being enamored by power and wealth and having to look in the mirror about that. But generally, you're looking at, like lots of my clients have had increases of their money or wealth under Pluto, Sun transits. It's as though there's a strike gold from deep, deep within; you are striking gold within yourself psychologically, spiritually relationally. But oftentimes, literally, you're somehow striking gold, and you're becoming wealthier, or you're becoming more successful or something like that.

Number four is sickness and recovery. Now, this plays into themes of death and rebirth again, but what I mean by this and this could be spiritual sickness, psychological sickness, mental, physical, emotional sickness, could be sickness in the family, or have a family member, of someone close to you or in your environment. But there are often again, I know this one sucks, but lots of my clients have gone through, you know, cancer recovery from cancer chemotherapy surgeries, they have had a massive, you know, surgeries to correct some, you know, problem in the body. And it could be, you know, not necessarily anything life-threatening, like, I've actually seen a lot of people have knee replacements or hip replacements, or it's almost as though the Sun just broadly speaking can represent one's vitality and freedom of movement, a sense of health and sunshine that radiates through someone, or the sense that that's somehow like stunted or blocked or prohibited by something and then the removal of that prohibition or the removal of that toxin or sickness as part of the process.

So I've seen a lot of people go into this could be psychological and emotional. People go through really intense; like I actually, I had Pluto conjoined my Moon in Capricorn and then opposed my Sun in cancer and went through surgery. And you had had a few other health issues that came up. And I've been pretty healthy up to that point in my life. So that was surprising. And I had read, you know, of course, and seeing clients and, you know, everything suggested that the possibility of getting sick and it being life-changing somehow could happen. For example, as a result of the Sun, or Pluto opposing the Sun in my natal chart and finishing that up over the past two years, my own some of my own first kind of real, I would say life health challenges led to me working out five days a week. Yeah. So the idea that you get sick, Pluto representing some darkness, some toxin or poison that's in the body, the mind, the soul, the spirit. That's, that's one part of it.

But the other part is usually that there is, again, this theme of survival and of coming out the other side having been deeply changed because of what you went through. Now, I don't want that to scare people. Because I would say the vast majority of people that I've spoken with who have had anything come up during a Pluto Sun transit, regarding their health, it has not been life-threatening. It has been challenging and maybe puts them in touch with the fact that everyone and everything is, you know, mortal in this world is going to die and pass away and change. But they'll, you know, these like, for me, it was truly life-changing because it was a much deeper grasp of my own physical limits and mortality than I had ever really had before. I dealt with a few things over the course of a couple of years. And then, you know, as the Pluto transit passed on, I got better. And so there's, there's something. Yeah, there's a profound process of sickness and recovery associated with the transit.

Number five, I've said it a million times the death of solar figures; you can see fathers die, solar figures die or pass away or transformation related to solar figures, including leaders or famous people, heroes, any kind of solar figure. I'm not going to say more about that because I said a bunch about that yesterday. But those are my five things that I see the most and hear the most from my clients. I hope that you find that useful. That's what I've got for today. We'll see you guys again tomorrow. Bye.
