On April 17th, Mars makes a station, turning retrograde, at 8°54' Sagittarius. The next day, Pluto also stations, at 17°29' Capricorn. That’s two potentially scary planets, both getting very intense at the same time.

....

Retrogradation is a complex subject interpretively, but for our purposes here one point is central. The more slowly a planet is moving, the more powerful it becomes. That’s why Pluto transits are more momentous than Mercury transits—they simply have more time to interact with your mind, your attitude and your life. And a planet cannot get slower than flat-out stopped. Therefore, a Stationary planet is at maximum power.

To have Pluto and Mars both reach peak amperage within one day of each other is a rare and daunting prospect. Both of these planets make better friends than enemies, so to speak.

Well this should be fun?

I should have said the SUN will be on my Chiron...

Tr Mars between my Venus and Neptune
Tr Pluto heading back to pummel my sun again.

It didn't kill me last time, so...

Right near my Chiron.

I have an interview April 18 for a counseling position and transit Pluto in the second is forming a yod with my northnode in the 7th and vertex conjunct valentine with pluto at the apex.

That day transit Karma will be conjuncting my Chiron which is at the apex of a yod between Saturn sextile Cupido and cupido quindeciles my northnode. Interestingly my draco karma and venus conjuncts my tropic chiron in the 6th.

I will actually be arriving to Colorado mid April. This month I have gotten into energy psychology and have been implementing a lot of Emotional Freedom techniques on myself and teaching it to my clients, I also refinanced my car and joined a program that will reduce my student loans by half eventually. For me transit pluto has been great this month doing a lot of eliminating, organizing, restructuring, cutting but all for the ultimate good and for the benefit of my growth. I have been confronting my fears, freeing myself of anxiety with energy psychology techniques and organizing my finances when it comes to my loans by getting much better deals.

I think this is a time of transformation, growth, facing your fears and pushing your comfort zone and about dealing with our inner demons once and for all and by inner demons I mean your negative thoughts that limit you etc. Also a time of goodbyes, death and rebirth and making sacrifices for personal growth.

Pluto to me is about change, death, rebirth and transformation and mars about confidence, drive and going after what you want; I think this is a very powerful month but in a good way, definitely not bad. Is about launching bravely into the unknown having faith it will all work out, that is how I interpret Mars and Pluto in action this month if anything.

Really Fun! I see they're stationing right where it's already hurting.

I'm already having a ball with
tSaturn conj. Moon sq. Mars & Saturn(again)
tMars sq. Saturn..
and tPluto sq Pluto/MC-IC axis.

and I thought it was only depressing tNept square Moon.

During this time should we combine the Pluto/Mars energy when it form an aspect each to an individual planet? E.g. Sun conjunct Pluto 5, Sum semi-square Mars 0 (yes know semi-square isn't a major aspect but it is at 0, through astro.com)with the transits?
