Mars Square Retrograde Pluto...

starts on August 3 (using a 1 degree orb), is exact on August 4 at 2.58pm in Kilmore, leaves on August 6.  Mars at 3 degrees and 11 minutes of Libra, retrograde Pluto at 3 degrees and 11 minutes of Capricorn.

This aspect is basically happening at the same time as the previously discussed Mars/Jupiter Opposition, so suggests an especially powerful time for all of us.

Looking at this aspect on its own, it suggests a pretty serious clash of energies that will test the way we use power, and also show us just how far others are will to go in using theirs.  It is important to keep your own actions honourable during this time, regardless of what others chose to do, particularly since it may feel as though you are being provoked in certain areas of your life!

As is usually the case look to see where this aspect is falling to get an idea for what or who may be at cross-purposes in your life, and where power issues will need to be handled with care.  Also look to see which houses are ruled by Mars (one with Aries on the cusp) and Pluto (one with Scorpio on the cusp).

If you have personal planets and/or points in Aries or Capricorn you may feel this energy more strongly than others.
