The Sun makes a dramatic opposition to Pluto now, creating a powerful see saw like angle that demands both change and release.
The hotspot degrees are 14 Cancer and 14 Capricorn, so this will be most influential for you if you have planets or chart points (like the Ascendant or MC) at these degrees, or at the square angles of 14 Aries and 14 Libra.
The Sun represents creative force, expression and leadership. Pluto is intense, deep and wants to take charge.
This aspect can invite you to step into the driver’s seat, or reclaim control around a topic or issue where you’ve given away your power.
Under a Pluto aspect secrets or hidden things can come to lig
ht. True motivations may be revealed, or you may discover something you’ve overlooked. This can be an aspect that highlights ‘buried treasure’, as the Sun brings light and warmth to the darkness and intimate space represented by Pluto (who is after all, God the Underworld!).
It is an opposition aspect though and that means things – people, situations, goals/limits – that stand opposed to you, or what you’re trying to do. This can be like a great test, that forces you to be more honest, mostly with yourself, about why you want what you want, or why you’re doing what you’re doing.
So, the take away? As new insight brings truths to light you can be more honest about what’s really going on, for yourself and others. As a result, you can better apply your own desire and light to something that really matters, like a battle worth fighting.

Along the way, you may step away from a disagreement or debate you’ve realised you aren’t that invested in. This aspect is also like a preview for the even more intense and potentially dramatic Mars opposite Pluto aspect that arrives next week around the same degrees.
If the release side of this aspect manifests for you, this is a time to purge and purify, to release that which has had power over you and to reclaim your sense of control.
It’s ultimately about applying your free will, so that the forces of fate don’t take over.
If this is your birthday (July 6, 7 or 8th), your half birthday (you’re born January 4, 5 or 6th) or your quarter birthday (you’re born April 4, 5 or 6th or October 7, 8 and 9) this will be a big theme for you, not just now as the aspect happens, but throughout 2015.
If you are born on these dates you have the Sun in your personal chart close to or at 14 degrees of your sign, in this case either Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn, which means you are in the middle of a personal Pluto/Sun transit. You can read more about this in your year ahead horoscopes, (Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn) or it would be discussed in a personal year ahead chart consult.
Are you feeling the Pluto influence? Are things that have been hidden coming to light, or are you in the purge and purify side of the energy?
