Over the years of using this asteroid in synastry readings and the subsequent research that I dove into, while undeniably important and descriptive of an entirely different type of bond, I often find myself at a loss for words to describe the type of bond indicated when the DNA asteroid contacts certain points. I have found there are patterns and certain placements that are most common as an indicator of this unique type of bond.
When the Sun and Pluto are in the challenging aspect of a square, it is difficult to ignore, and like everything in life, how we experience this energy depends so much on how willing we are to surrender to what Pluto is asking of us.
As astrologers now know, this is all in perfect design with what Uranus brings and teaches. He is the Great Awakener, the sacred rebel, and transcends any and all social programming, and we must open our minds in order to greet him properly.
When we face our shadows, that means the sun “has our back” and is supporting us even though we can’t see that… we have to zoom out in order to see the full picture of that support. It is OUR shadow that we’re seeing. What do we know about shadows? They generally are distorted, not realistic, can fool us (shadow puppets), usually look scarier than they are.
Natal Venus in Virgo folks are usually pretty skilled at the care and feeding of a partner, both literally and metaphorically. If they trust that you are committed to growth in the relationship, they can be utterly devoted and will express their love through thoughtful acts of service and by actually making your life a whole lot better.
The Pluto square Pluto transit is one of these initiations-in-common that can serve up some of the most drastic life changes between the ages of 36-61. It’s a wide age range, yes, but most will experience this transit in their middle to late 30s or early 40s.
The composite Sun tells us what the relationship needs in order to stay alive and thrive. The SIGN of the Composite Sun tells us HOW the relationship likes to get its vitality. The HOUSE placement of the Composite Sun tells us WHERE in life the relationship likes to get its life force.
The composite Sun tells us what the relationship needs in order to stay alive and thrive. Tending to its needs gives the relationship strong bones and resilience to the natural ups and downs of life and love. Most importantly it makes the relationship a pleasure to be in!
At first glance, it might be easy to assume that if Jupiter is retrograde in the natal chart, that all these wonderful things would be revered and negated. This is not true! I have found this particular natal retrograded planet to be one of the most misunderstood. Let’s talk about it.
Bottom line, we are confronted with any taboos we have tried to sweep under the rug. Something in the intimate spaces in our heart has reached critical mass and must see the light of day. Our defenses crumble. Any attempts to hold them at bay are no longer successful.
When Venus is transiting the sign of Cancer, it is an opportune time to beautify our homes and bless them with our focused energy. Don’t forget to engage your inner child in some creative play, send heart beams of gratitude to your ancestors, and inject loving rewrites into your personal myth. Intuition can be enhanced at this time, so trust your instincts!
Every year we have 2 eclipse seasons. One in spring/summer and one in fall/winter. These potent periods of time are opportunities for conscious-focused individuals to experience rapid and palpable change in their lives.
