Mercury Opposing Retrograde Pluto...

today in Kilmore at 1.29am. Mercury at 1 degree and 42 minutes of Cancer and Retrograde Pluto at 1 degree and 42 minutes of Capricorn.

Wow, this is a pretty intense energy combination (and first aspect that Mercury makes as it moves in Cancer)! This suggests that a highly emotional situation (Mercury in Cancer... contacting Pluto) or person is likely to be accented in our lives right now. This person or situation is likely to be very complex because of the Plutonian influence, but also in need of restructuring and change. The opposition suggests that we will have the chance to view this situation as objectively as we ever will, considering the emotional nature of this configuration, and also be able to reach a turning point with it.

Sometimes it's helpful to look back to when planets involved in an aspect were conjunct (symbolically the start of their relationship), to see what was happening around then in terms of what is happening now. The last time Mercury and Pluto were conjunct was in mid-December 2008 at 0 degrees of Capricorn. Look to see where this conjunction happened in your chart, and also which houses are ruled by these planets (Gemini, Virgo and Scorpio) to get an idea of what people and issues may be important as part of this planetary pairing.
