Transit Watch: Mercury Opposes Pluto – June 19, 2011 – Personal And Otherwise
“When you stare into the abyss the abyss stares back at you.
– Friedrich Nietzsche
I regret not covering this sooner. Mercury opposes Pluto, exact tomorrow and it struck me that Annalisa’s post around people contacting her in order to injure me is an awfully good example of how this aspects works.
We are Mercury- ruled siblings and the probing (Pluto) communications (Mercury) are done beneath the surface or at least the attempt(s) is made.
Oppositions go back and forth so when a person intends to penetrate (Pluto) my sister (Mercury), it’s almost a given that my sister is going to penetrate the person(s) with the poison pen.

Kenny Rogers – The Great Mediator
Hopefully Coherent Ramblings
Yesterday I started telling you about “Cousin Gerard” and our trip to see where Arnold works here.
It was January of ’06. Mercury was conjunct Pluto in Sagittarius and Mars was opposite Jupiter at the time. People were making mountains out of molehills which was hilarious if you were an observer, not so much if you were in the thick of it.
Li-Tian greeted us with gracious intentions. All she had in the refrigerator were three eggs which she whipped up into a large flat omelet and set on a plate in the middle of the table for us all to share. I had just spent a year in China and had grown accustomed to this type of family style eating, Gerard on the other hand was visibly uncomfortable. He shifted back and forth in his seat and declined the offering.

Mercury In Capricorn Sextiles The Moon In Scorpio… And Reveals Things
Astrology in real life
Mercury’s transit through Capricorn (kissing Pluto en route) has been incredible for me personally. At the moment, the Moon in Scorpio is in a tight sextile to Mercury allowing access to depth for those willing to ponder the abyss.

Mercury Is Squaring Pluto And P Goes Diggin’ Around
Astrology in real life
“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.”

Pluto Direct Square Mercury Retrograde – Discovery
Astrology in real life
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.
Continue reading Pluto Direct Square Mercury Retrograde – Discovery
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.

Mercury Square Pluto, Communication Blackouts In The News
Astrology in real life
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?
Astrology Today: Why Do You Do It, Elsa? Why Piss Off More People Then You Please?
Behind the scenes at elsaelsa
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?
Astrology Today – Mercury Square Pluto… Communication Black Outs
Astrology in real life
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.

Astrology Today – Leo Is Pissed Off And By God, I’d Know
My eye on the sky
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.
