Scattered energies begin to take shape and form. The full moon in Scorpio opened up the emotional realms to intensity and exploration. Things are beginning to simmer down so long as we’ve given ourselves time and space to process and digest. Mercury’s move into Taurus is a grounding point in the Aries/Gemini spin.
Mars Square Jupiter
On Monday the 4th, Mars in Aries forms square to Jupiter in Cancer. This is an awakening energy. We may have been feeling this for the past week. Eris and Chiron are still within orb of conjunction in the latter degrees of Aries. Mars will make conjunction to both of these points in the next week. First, however, the square to Jupiter is a reminder of the healing potential of these times.
Jupiter has been lingering in square to Chiron and Eris since October of 2025. The conjunction of Eris and Chiron in late March brought everything to life and now we are entering the final phase of this expansive and healing transit.
For today, Mars is delivering and creating extra energy to be used towards something that inspires you. Look to close relationships, comfort zones, passions, family, home and things that just make you feel both safe and powerful. Maybe you are looking to take up a cause for others? This probably won’t work too well right now unless YOU yourself are completely taken care of. The focus here is on the momentary needs and desires. When we are able to get in touch with these and find ways to fulfill them, we can build something greater into the future. Overdoing it and trying to shift tomorrows outcome today will tax your energy system and lead to increased anxiety. Beware of reaching for energy. Sugar, caffeine, stimulants or drama are just some ways in which we as humans create energy that doesn’t actually nurture us.
This planetary combination has so much potential. In our world, however, they forgot to teach us that resting, healing and being still is incredibly powerful. Instead, our world focuses on production, output, work ethic and competition. These all have their place, but our society has become far too one-sided.
Pay attention to your own needs first, especially the body. In reading charts for clients, I have always recommend Mars Jupiter transits as a time to get stronger. Jupiter has excess energy and Mars can channel and funnel this energy into physical form. So, within this aspect, we have a dichotomy. On one end, we can run all the energy through our bodies to get things done and go on a great adventure. This can be done to the extent that we run on adrenaline, coffee and sugar until our kidneys are tapped. At the other end of the spectrum, we can use the Jupiter energy to fill our physical tanks where it is needed. This requires conscious attention to rest and receptivity. Jupiter won’t just fix your body, the energy must be directed, held and absorbed.
On a personal level, when I see an aspect coming of this type, I plan to meditate, rest, do yoga and to feed myself nurturing foods. I eat when I’m hungry and feed myself well. The body has limits, and Jupiter has none. So we can transcend our current state of lack, but only through recognizing where we need assistance and where our bodies speak to us.
This is a boost in physical healing and can enhance or even completely shift your mood or viewpoint. Be sure to slow down enough to drop off your emotional baggage before taking off for a new flight.
Mercury Square Pluto
As mentioned above, Mercury made it’s way into Taurus and will only be there for two weeks ((May 17th into Gemini)). This energy is helping us to accept reality for what it is. Tuesday marks a bit of a reality check. Even though Mercury and the Sun are in Taurus, things have still been moving so fast it has been hard to settle in.
Pluto is stationing retrograde as of the Wednesday the 6th. For all intents and purposes Pluto is still on Tuesday at the time of this transit. This adds strength to Pluto ((which really doesn’t need that)). A fast moving Mercury is like a sharp and fast moving arrow. While Pluto stationing is like slow moving front wall of a flash flood in the desert southwest. The arrow will be rolled into the mud, trees and rocks. Mercury will be folded slowly but thoroughly into the will of Pluto.
As of Tuesday wherever we are flying high we shall be grounded. This certainly isn’t a bad feeling but also will feel more adult and serious than it will playful and free. Pluto in Aquarius is moving towards an exact trine with newly into Gemini Uranus ((more on this later)). Pluto is preparing for some intense energy dynamics. Some of the changes that are coming this summer and into the fall/winter require shifts NOW.
As Mercury in Taurus squares Pluto, we can see that some things just aren’t going to work out. There are certain realities that, no matter how much we don’t want them to be true, are certainly true. Communications within the media might not bring the most lovely feelings.
Within all of this there is massive strength. The key is to shift focus. While still remaining in the moment, we must consider the arc of the soul. While still remaining as an individual, we must consider the path of the collective. What role do we play? Well, it may be getting lost or reshuffled during this time. Without faith in something, this time feels lonely and desperate.
If you are struggling with something, it is important that you speak to someone about it. Mental, emotional and physical health are all perfectly intertwined. Sometimes just speaking about something to someone can help us to feel it all. Feeling through things can help clear the body of pain and annoying symptoms. Instead of treating illnesses with supplements, doctor visits or pills… aim to express what you are holding in words. The more direct and clear the better, but any form of personal expression will assist you.
Being let down is about expectations being met. Ideally, this week helps us to lower expectations and recognize what is real, present and beautiful.
Be grateful for what you have, as we are entering a phase of having ‘just enough’ to get by. This isn’t a bad thing, as having too many resources can obscure the beauty of our own existence. Value what is there for you, value your own energy. If someone doesn’t light you up, if they bring you down or complain regularly… feel free to release them. Someone else may find their energy lovely. Another friend or partner will fit you better anyway, maybe they are just waiting for you to drop the dead weight.
Pluto Retrograde
Pluto is retrograde every year. Like clockwork we move around the Sun and end up on the side closer to Pluto. This is when it appears to retrograde. Planets never actually move ‘backwards’, but astrology is all about reference points. This one is set to be a doozy.
In July of 2026, Jupiter in Leo will oppose Pluto. In addition, Uranus will form and exact trine to Pluto. Let’s not forget about Neptune, as well, which will perfectly sextile both Pluto and Uranus. It is very wild astrology, and more is written and talked about on YouTube. In addition, you will hear more from me about this as the summer unfolds.
I mention all of this now because the stage is being set for these unfolding.
Can we trust authority? No, obviously not.
Should we burn everything down? No, obviously not.
Are your neighbors your enemies? No, obviously not.
It’s time for people to wake the f&ck up. They have been brainwashed and many continue to accept the dark elixir of blindness. Humans are being manipulated and the energy of Pluto will refuse to allow this to happen any longer.
This time brings back the energy of 2020, when the pandemic was unfolding. Humanity was told to stop everything, to take a bogus medicine and to just follow orders. Today, more of the same thing is happening. Whether it is gas, home or food prices. Humans are being controlled as to their freedom of movement.
I expect these 5 months to be the most revelatory in modern history. What was really going on? Depending on how much you are willing to open your eyes, you may just find out that you have been lied to about everything. Even more shocking, we may just end up realizing we WANTED TO BE DUPED because that is easier than taking responsibility for our lives! This is how personal and soul growth occurs, through accepting our role in being submissive.
Crazy right? Who is this guy, talking all this sh!t? Well, this is reality honey. Our world isn’t a punishment, a prison or a mistake. Everything that is happening is calculated to be the exact moment you and I need to advance our consciousness as souls. For whatever variety of reasons, we have all ended up on this planet at this time with these psychopathic wounded individuals in charge of the resources.
Please do not allow them to control your energy, focus or emotions. Of course they have the weapons of destruction. That is because they seek to destroy themselves and everyone else. These people are filled with self hatred and loathing so strong that they have conjured wars and explosions that are rationalized as patriotism or protection.
Some souls seek to stay in the dark, believing that one side is bad in order to believe that their side is good. That is one way to live, but Pluto is gonna make that harder and harder. By August, Uranus will ensure that the electroshock therapy of truth exposure hits those who most need it. If people want to stay weak and blind, they will have to sacrifice more than just their empowerment. The stakes are raising, as are the rewards.
Stay vigilant, my friends, speak your truth where it feels appropriate. Shuck away all the brainwash and stories of war and politics. It is all a game.
Things that were seen as noble or vital to the health of society will be seen as denigrating and embarrassing very soon. As the population wakes up, one by one, reality starts to shift.
Break the mold, stop following convention. And for f$ck’s sake, stop fighting with your brothers and sisters, you are falling for the trap.
Are you empowered and centered enough to love? Even when it is scary and intense?
