Transiting Pluto
The Opportunity:
We all have something “wrong” with us, and society has a path, usually with statistics, for every wrong out there. Society might say “you’re lazy, unfocused, and spend too much time daydreaming.” Oh no, that means you’re going to end up unemployed and in a falling-down house with no grasp on reality. When we’re touching in on Pluto, we’re prone to hear the disempowering parts of our reality. Lazy. Bipolar. Depressed. ADHD. PTSD. Drug addict. Weak. Sensitive. Nutcase. That crazy cat lady. I mean, the list can go on and on and on. And the temptation can be the find all the categories in which society tells you, and then invariably hear how that is going to hold you back in life. But the opportunity of this transit is when you hear society go “lazy, unfocused, daydreamer” you stand up and go “peace prioritizing, creative, artist.” You lean into it. You make the clothes you dreamed of making. Now you’re still lazy, unfocused, and a daydreamer…but also a millionaire. This transit wants you to flip what society has ingrained about you on its head. Instead of saying that traits or experiences you’ve had have rendered you powerless or ineffective in society…you say, I am powerful. I take my weaknesses and make them strengths. I don’t fight to fit in, I innovate with the tools and power I have. I am brilliant. That’s the opportunity with this transit. To stop listening to what is “wrong” about you, and start really honing in on the opportunities that present themselves because of all the unique reasons why there is something beautifully right about you.
