On March 23, 2023 Pluto entered the sign of Aquarius after its long stretch in Capricorn —dating back to 2008. Although this transit is significant, it is still a temporary shift into the sign, as in June 2023 it will revert back into Capricorn. Additionally, the cosmos decided on timing this transit during the week of the Spring Equinox and New Moon, enhancing the unconscious aspect to this shift. In other words, the degree with which Pluto sits until June —zero degrees that is — coupled with the zero degree mark of the Spring Equinox, contribute to the ultimate unconsciousness of the transit.
Many of you may find you do not notice a shift, and that is exactly what an unconscious transit would feel like. But, with enhanced mindfulness and awareness practices, the shift is very much present. With Plutonic energy, we must slow down and tune in. The shift generally takes place in the collective energies first, but depending on your natal chart there could very well be timely appearances of the shift. Subtle energies are very much cluing us in.
My personal experience at the exact moment of the transit was beautiful. Birds were panicking in the air, smoke was rising out of bushes and Pluto announced with a smile on her face that it would be a glorious day. Now, I understand this last sentence is a bit confusing but the cosmos love playing these games with me. A woman, out of the blue, who could not have had any more Pluto energy than she did, walked up to me in a quiet area and literally was gleaming with excitement about the energy of the day. She ordered that I “enjoy this glorious day.”
A good example of this transit’s energy embedded within the collective is the recent tornadoes that struck in the Mississippi River Valley just one day after the transit took place. Another example is the recent hype on banning gas stoves. Aquarius, an air sign ruling technology, is merging with Pluto to create some havoc for the purposes of evolution.
