“Do you still think people choose their families?” I asked my sister, we have studied astrology since we were 8 and 10. “You used to think we came in where we came in by choice.”

“It’s a theory,” she said.

“A theory? You don’t believe this?”  She has a Sadge Moon conjunct Jupiter so “belief” is the litmus test.

“It’s a theory. There are a lot of people who believe in that theory but I can’t say I have that experience.”

“Interesting.  I definitely think I picked our parents.”

I feel frustrated over my inability to communicate my thoughts that have formed due accessing my deep emotion. I have made four attempts with four different people and can see I may as well be speaking French or Pig Latin or gibberish or something because no one seems to know what I’m talking about. They just don’t grasp the depth of what I am saying and as a consequence I fall deeper in.

Mercury (and Venus) in Virgo are tightly square Pluto and the rest of the sky is benign in comparison. Communications are manipulative but a negative connotation to that should not be assigned or assumed.

It is possible that a person’s manipulation of you is desirable (Venus) depending on the person. For example if your body is in a knot, a chiropractor can do some pretty nifty magic via manipulation. It reminds me of when I first got in contact with the soldier in 2003. Pluto was transiting my Sun then and I was having a hell of a time.

Yesterday I wrote about Mercury squaring Pluto and the Communication blackouts. Today we have this:

FAA says communication breakdown delaying flights

“The Federal Aviation Administration says a communication failure at a Georgia facility that processes flight plans for the eastern half of the U.S. is causing flight delays around the country.

FAA spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen says there are no safety issues and officials are still able to speak to pilots on planes on the ground and in the air. …”

Read the rest - Breitbart

This is textbook astrology. Breakdown (Pluto) in air travel (Sagittarius) caused my communication (Mercury) blackouts. Anyone else seeing more of this?

I am getting ready to make a video, it’s the kind of thing that will piss off more people than it will please so I asked myself, why? Today’s Mercury square Pluto offers the opportunity to become aware of and accept your own motivations which may or may not be noble and I’m taking advantage.

I don’t do it because I want to be provocative or controversial although this may be the result. My motive is much more selfish, I simply want to get to the next (a deeper) level and to do that I have to shuck off this other stuff. So while may seem…whatever you care to project (I think I am Oprah is a common one) what I really want to do is get smarter and this is the only way I know how to do that.

I would go on to say, this is so important to me I don’t care the damage it does my reputation. I am already an astrologer and it’d be hard to damage a reputation beyond that.

Can anyone relate?

Mercury is applying to square Pluto and things are hopping around here in some spots. In other spots there have been total black outs. For example over the weekend my blog was down for half a day and there was nothing I could do about it

Today, I some how dropped half my bookmarks and cannot figure out how to find the link that allows me to add things to the Astro News at the moment so again another black out.

The grounded Moon in Taurus is further stabilized by a trine from Saturn in Virgo and Leo is pissed. Leo is a fire sign, it prefers to be a blaze of glory and here is all this mucky, yucky, dense, earthy… well you know. What wants reality in their drama for Godsakes? It’s a f’ckin’ tragedy!

Outside of that, Mercury is in exact aspect to Pluto which explains all the talk of death on this blog the last few days. If there is something you’d like to get to the bottom of, now is a good time to probe.

Turns out around here at least, the Mercury Pluto opposition (along with the Moon in Scorpio) rules the day. Talk of sex, hidden knowledge various things stimulating and disturbing.

The soldier had me read a passage in a book this morning, one that he’s mentioned and referenced many times. I got the book months ago but if you’ve been reading here awhile you know I don’t open a box just because he sends it. At least not right away I don’t. I have to let this stuff cool off and that’s what this book has been doing sitting next to the bed for the last six months.

In whatever case, today he put it in my hand to read after reading it himself as I bootled (wrote the last blog).

“Just read this part right here,” he said with his fingers grasping a 10 page section.

The soldier and I watched Die Hard last night which believe or not, I had never seen. He stopped the movie repeatedly to explain how technically accurate it was as far as how an operation is actually planned and executed. Specifically familiar with every weapon used in the movie, (and calling himself the Special Forces weapons sergeant of all weapon sergeants) he explained whoever wrote the money had done their homework to the nth degree.

For example Bruce Willis has a beretta in the movie, a gun the soldier does not prefer but he says one of it’s features is an ambidextrous safety. You can use either hand to engage or disengage the safety of the gun and he pointed out how Bruce Willis kept changing hands to highlight this.
Continue reading Mercury Opposing Pluto: Deep, Penetrating… Hidden Knowledge

The Moon is in Scorpio and Mercury opposes Pluto which indicates an air of paranoia. Last night the soldier I was asking the soldier what he thought of various things which is routine. “Is this a trick question?” he asked me repeatedly.

Thankfully when I told him it was no trick question we moved along but you see the energy out there so here’s the song of the day: Elvis - Suspicious Minds.

Do you have a Mercury / Pluto exchange in your chart? How does it play?
