A month from today on February 13th, Mars and Pluto will join for the first time in Aquarius since the late 1700's.
Mars has been and will continue to be very thematic over the next year as the North Node is currently doing its thing in Aries, a sign commonly associated with war because of its ruling planet — Mars.
On this same day, the North Node will be conjunct Chiron and joined by the Moon at 16 degrees of Aries at around 12:00 PM EST. With this bit also thrown into the mix, it paints a picture of the traumas of war.
I have been pondering this whole configuration for a few weeks now.
