This weekend Pluto is once again the star of the show. It has been in Capricorn since 2008 and will be there until 2024! The planet of destruction and overwhelm continues to wreak its own kind of havoc. Pluto is a big reason we have been feeling like we are struggling in so many areas of life for so long.

On Saturday, Mercury opposite Pluto transit creates a battle of ideas, either within our own minds or with others. There is a tendency with this transit to look at only one side of an issue. However, if we do some research and investigation, we can uncover facts we did not know that may cause us to change our opinions. Can you be openminded enough to see the other side? Although opinions may be very strong now, there is also the promise of a positive transformation in our thinking as we reach deeper levels of understanding.

There are, however, some negative scenarios to watch for. Insurrectionary tactics such as propaganda, mind control, threats and intimidation to name a few. Watch out for being talked into things under pressure, due to being obsessed with a particular idea. The truth may be hidden today by secrecy or misinformation. Do not take anything at face value and investigate both sides. Conspiracy theories abound. To help us remove ourselves from negative and destructive people and environments, meditation, self-analysis, or even prayer will help us understand our feelings.

Pluto in the fourth house feels tension at home. The control theme is always present. Do you relinquish control to other family members or hold onto power? Do you do this by hiding the skeletons in the family closet?
