I have a confession to make…

I LOVE PLUTO.

In my poetry, Pluto shows up as my confidant, my bestie, my lover, my king. But it wasn't always this Way.

I didn't always have the deep trust for Pluto that I have now. Over the past few years, Pluto has made transits to important parts of my chart. The initiation was great, the change was harrowing, but I bloomed again.

Pluto is the master of change, cycles of death and rebirth, inner alchemy, and what is hidden in plain sight.

Plutonic energies speak to what endures.
Endurance through the difficult. Endurance of what remains when all else gets burned away.

Therein lies your Power.

Pluto is the pressure turning coal to diamonds. It's not necessarily easy to embrace Plutonic energies. It can be easy to feel victimized by them. You get to choose.

Pluto is entering Aquarius on March 23rd. The next year or so of this transit will not be straightforward as Pluto retrogrades back into Capricorn twice before remaining in Aquarius from November 19th, 2024 to March 8th, 2043.

For now, we are shedding the old as we embrace the new.

For a time, we'll have a foot in both worlds. Flexibility of mind and spirit will be necessary.

As we get closer to Pluto's entrance into Aquarius, chapter 33 of the Tao Te Ching keeps ringing in my ears...

"Knowing others is intelligence;
Knowing yourself is true wisdom.
Mastering others is strength;
Mastering yourself is true power.
If you realize you have enough,
you are truly rich.
If you stay in the center,
and embrace death with your whole heart,
you will endure forever.
"

~Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching
