EVOLUTION of the SOUL ~
Mars Opposes Pluto for the 3rd & Final Time!
True Freedom is entering a space of the undiscovered self, and experiencing the evolution of your own Soul.
Mars is the planet of freedom, desire, and self-discovery.Mars is the lower octave of Pluto, and thus correlates to the conscious component within you that instinctually acts upon the desires emanating from your Soul.
Mars represents the instinctive urge to take action, to become, and to follow what is rising up from your depths. When Mars and Pluto are in strong aspect to one another, as they are now in opposition, there is a growing intensity of energy that appears to have a life of its own, one that has you unable to stay put or to tolerate anything that has reached a limit or run its course. There is a sense of urgency ~ it’s a call to action.
An element of karma and fate is almost always involved, even if it’s simply an energy that echoes quietly beneath the surface. However, more often than not it is a dramatic interplay being acted out on the stage of life. Mars under stress can ignite anger within you or others, as you come face to face with something that must be confronted if you are to evolve. Often this anger is linked with fear and insecurity of what a changing future might involve.
In every case, it will lead you outside your comfort zone as you push your own limits and reach for the light of greater possibility; in love and in life purpose.
A REVIEW
Early October 2024 ~ early May 2025 represents an evolutionary window where your Soul has been working through themes of self-empowerment that have required you to go back to the past and re-cover the emotional ground that has been bypassed or side-stepped so you are ready to ascend. Your Soul is nearly clear of this tumultuous trend that involved not 1, not 2, but 3 Mars/Pluto oppositions.
Key dates below:
2024
Nov. 3: Mars in Cancer opposes Pluto in Capricorn at the anaretic 29th degree. (3:44 am PT) representing a critical point that marks the end of a cycle and the beginning of another cycle, accompanied by fated intersections and karmic inter-plays. It may have also reflected one last power-move to hold onto the past with Pluto signifying the Soul’s greatest sense of (emotional) security.
Nov. 3 Mars enters Leo (9:10pm PT)
Nov. 19: Pluto enters Aquarius ~ for the next 20 years: Sudden change and transformation can appear to occur suddenly, but it can also be a revolutionary process that takes place over an extended period of time.
Dec.6 : Mars stations retrograde at 6 degrees of Leo.
2025
Jan. 3: Mars Retrograde in Leo opposes Pluto in Aquarius
Jan. 6: Mars backs into Cancer
Feb. 23: Mars stations Direct in Cancer (17 degrees)
April 18: Mars re-enters Leo
April 26: Mars Direct in Leo opposes Pluto in Aquarius ~ Untethering your Soul from a past that binds. Actualizing your evolving creative life purpose.

Activating the Evolution of the Soul
What have you been in the process of clearing or eliminating in your life so that your Soul can evolve? Oppositions can feel intense, especially on the way there, as a crescendo effect of pressure persists within your personal journey. It can be experienced as a deep, unconscious pull toward something you need to confront, or a push that demands a removal of what was leading your Soul off course.
The secret to the opposition is this: While you may be feeling emotionally stretched, oppositions are in place to throw-off whatever has been in the way so that your new chapter can begin. Once the block is removed, the opposition becomes a conjunction, thus a new beginning and a fresh start.
It can be experienced as a death of an old part of you, so something bigger and brighter can be reborn. In some cases, there may be a feeling of grief as we let go of who we once were or of something we thought we wanted. For some, it can be experienced as re-living a loss or experiencing loss in the present moment in time involving a career, a loved one, or of the way things were and no longer can be. But the energy is ultimately propelling and empowering as more quality substance colors your wings.
Go deeper now, with the understanding that the less you resist, the more freedom you will find in the discovery of your evolving Soul.

Early in the month, I posted a chart for April 5 that included a stellium of planets merged in Pisces = Mercury, Venus, Saturn and the North Node. Both Mercury and Venus were retrograde in Pisces at the time. Uranus in Taurus was in supreme position to this watery line-up, forming a sixty degree angle called a sextile, representing the potential for healing breakthroughs on all fronts, in relationships, life purpose, or in overall health ~ physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual. These themes have been moving through a rekindling process the entire month of April.
Since then, both Mercury and Venus have moved direct, Mercury moved on into Aries,, but Venus has been hidden while traveling behind Saturn and the North Node (future) in Pisces.
Venus, the planet of love and money, parts the veil and steps in front of the North Node and Saturn to form another NEW PHASE CONJUNCTION (exactly like the one on April 5) but this time with Venus moving DIRECT (vs. retrograde), energizing more CLARITY, visibility and love as Venus makes her move on Thursday, April 24.
Venus enters Aries on Thursday, April 30, energizing a new fire of loving potential in all of your relationships.
In addition, during the entire month of April, this Pisces stellium has been plugged into electric Uranus in Taurus, grounding you in a revitalizing vibrational charge that just about guarantees desirable transformation of some kind (although, in some cases, it may not look or feel like it initially. Uranus is currently also forming a rare yet exceptional alignment to the Nodes to energize more speed and relief, as well as the potential for a sudden wind reaching your back.
The New Moon in Taurus on Sunday, April 27, is squaring Mars on one side and Pluto on the other side, in the midst of their mutual opposition, which can lead you into an evolutionary crossroads. A big step may be required, one that looks and feels like a radical departure from a predictable past, but one that has your highest path in mind. It is a time for planting new Soul seeds.
Your Soul is a trusted compass. Surrender and let it lead.
BIG NEWS = Mars finally clears the shadow from its retrograde cycle on Thursday, May 1st.
This Mars trend that began in early October 2024 has been seven months of pulling you in and out, left and right, up and down. This, with the intention of getting you in touch with your deeper self for personal clearing, maturation, and re-discovery. In essence, so you can find your way back home to yourself, back to your Soul center.
Prepare to kick life into a higher gear and evolve at the speed your Soul feels ready for.
Free Yourself ~ A Sea of Infinite Possibility Awaits!
