Star Struck Style

This aspect that recurs every couple of years goes exact tomorrow right around the same time that the sun conjoins my natal Pluto and opposes my natal Chiron. I am concerned about being put in a position where I have to defend myself. Frankly, I’d rather just take the day off to get a massage, like I did in 2021 when I first published this post.

Anyway, I had already resolved to try to keep my thoughts to myself. As the saying goes, I was planning to “hide in plain sight” since avoiding my workplace was not going to be an option. Then I visited “Café Astrology” where I read this interpretation of the sun/Pluto conjunction:

“You are strong-willed and focused under this influence. The need to gain more control over your life motivates you to greater heights. You benefit most now from strategy and perhaps keeping things to yourself for the time being — you don’t have to reveal all that’s on your mind. You are in the position to gain some personal power — keep your eye out for opportunities, and do look beyond appearances. Some people find lost items or uncover resources — material or otherwise — under the influence of this transit. A ‘Eureka” can occur now. Self-discovery is the name of the game.”

The potential for this alignment to override the other two isn’t strong, but I’m not going to dismiss it, either. The one word from this passage that resonates with me the most is “strategy.” My strategy is to hide behind a facade of indifference while I process the events of the day. I need to avoid the compulsion to react to whatever occurs in the moment. I need to avoid appearing defensive even as I am defending myself. I run the risk of exposing all my vulnerabilities otherwise.

It doesn’t have to be a bad day if I don’t let it be a bad day. In fact, it could be a good day if I don’t let anything get to me, right?

I guess I’ll find out soon enough . . .
