I hadn’t intended to post this morning, but then I looked at the planets and decided that something needed to be said. With messenger Mercury setting off a T-square with controlling Pluto, and reactive Eris, the stage is set for trouble. This is just one of many edgy touchpoints we’ll experience in the weeks ahead as Pluto and Eris are in close contact. Pluto is the lord of the underworld, Eris is the warrior goddess who wasn’t invited to the party with all the pretty and popular goddesses, Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite. This Pluto/Eris square reminds of these lines from the Tori Amos song, Precious Things.
I remember, yes
In my peach party dress
No one dared
No one cared
To tell me where the pretty girls are
Those demigods
With their nine-inch nails
And little fascist panties
Tucked inside the heart
Of every nice girl
These precious things
Let them bleed
Let them wash away
These precious things
Let them break
Let them wash away
This Pluto/Eris vibe is about Eris raging and fighting for what you believe you’re entitled to, even if it means dragging others and yourself under and taking a trip through the underworld. Oh, you’ll go there. Pluto will welcome visitors to its murky depth and invite you to make yourself at home. Where you find 25 degrees of Aries in your natal chart is where you’ll rage over being excluded. Where you find 25 degrees of Capricorn is where you’ll dance with the underworld, it’s where you discover how far you’re willing to go. Be mindful of what you say. The response you receive could be more than you bargained for. Be alert to the dark and mysterious places where someone’s words or rage could take you. Look to house that holds 25 degrees of Cancer for relief. That’s where you can turn the valve that releases the pressure.
Love this song <3
