Mars squared Pluto at 23 degrees on December 23rd. This marked the beginning of a super heated, intense period which will be sustained through January, 2021.
Mars rules anger and raw male energy. Mars is stressed. I laid this out week by week so people can track this period as it unfolds. I'll link that below.
Currently Mercury is conjunct Pluto. It will cross 23 degrees overnight and conjoin Pluto tomorrow. I usually don't get this granular with things, but 23 degrees cardinal is the middle of a hot-zone that has been hammered for months and months.
If you doubt me, consider that next week's new moon in Capricorn is at what? 23 degrees. Conjunct Pluto, no less.
Fear is useless, caution is not. If it's important to you, be careful. Simple enough.
"I think I'll just run across this high-wire."
Long fall. Hard lesson.
