Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into this whole astrology thing lately, and let me tell you, it’s been a ride. I recently started looking at transits, which is basically how the current planets are interacting with my birth chart. And guess what popped up? Pluto transiting opposite my natal Sun. Sounds intense, right? It totally is.
First, I noticed I was feeling, well, off. Just really restless and like something big was brewing underneath the surface. I couldn’t put my finger on it, but I knew something was up. So, I checked my transits online (there are tons of free sites that do this, by the way), and BAM! There it was: transiting Pluto opposite natal Sun.
Next, I dug into what that actually means. From what I gathered, this transit is all about transformation, power struggles, and facing your shadow self. Basically, Pluto comes in like a wrecking ball and forces you to confront all the stuff you’ve been avoiding. Fun times!
The first thing that manifested for me was this intense feeling of needing to control everything. Like, everything. My relationships, my work, even little things like what I ate. It was exhausting, and honestly, it pushed some people away. I had to really sit with that and ask myself why I was feeling so desperate for control.
Then came the power struggles. Oh boy. I found myself butting heads with authority figures, questioning everything, and generally feeling like I was constantly fighting an uphill battle. It was like all my suppressed anger and resentment just bubbled to the surface. I had to learn to pick my battles and channel that energy in a more productive way.
- I started journaling like crazy. Just getting all those messy thoughts and feelings out of my head and onto paper was a huge relief.
- I also leaned heavily on my support system. Talking to friends and family who get me was crucial.
- Then I did meditation and consciously practice.
The biggest thing, though, has been confronting my “shadow self.” This is the part of you that you don’t really want to admit exists – the jealous, insecure, angry bits. Pluto forces you to look at that stuff head-on. It’s not pretty, but it’s necessary. I’ve had to confront some uncomfortable truths about myself, and it’s been painful, but also incredibly liberating.
It hasn’t been easy, and I’m definitely still in the thick of it. But I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I’m learning to let go of control, to embrace change, and to accept myself, flaws and all. It’s a process, but I’m growing through it, and that’s what really matters.
