We
have received inquiries as to what activates a planet’s energies in an
Astrology chart.
We
are going to use Pluto as our example for this purpose. Let’s say that Transiting (Current position)
Pluto has been in Conjunction with your natal (birth position) Venus for some
time now. Pluto will move very slowly
through the heavens. It can affect your
Venus for up to three years and for people very sensitive to the energies of
Pluto, Pluto’s influence could last as long as five years. Pluto on Venus suggests transformation in
your love life or changes directly related to your finances. There are other translations but we will
stick to these predominate obvious couple.
We
will not discuss the meaning of Transiting Pluto on Venus in detail. What we are concentrating on is “when” this
aspect will be enhanced and when to expect activity. The closer transiting Pluto moves towards
being direct in this example, (in other words when it is less than one degree
in separation or moving towards the specific degree of Venus in your chart),
the stronger it becomes.
You
ask, however, “what actually activates this transit?” It might become activated when it sits
directly on Venus, within 10 minutes or so, but more than likely, it will
become activated when Pluto is within range, (so under a half of a degree from
Venus’ position), and an inner planet will activate this transit.
The
inner planets that activate energies or stimulate action are Mars and the Sun
(also Uranus, an outer planet, when it is direct). You can often use Uranus to pinpoint the
timing for events within a couple of days.
The progressed Moon also stimulates activity and this takes place the
closer it is to being direct (same degree).
The progressed Moon has an influence for a period of three months, when
in aspect. The influence from the
progress Moon is when it is one degree approaching, while direct and one degree
separating.
For
example, if Venus is 15 degrees Capricorn in your chart, as Pluto begins to
affect Venus, you will notice some activity, at least on a mental level. When Pluto is about 1 degree or less of
being direct, its energies will grow in intensity as it approaches. If transiting Mars or the transiting Sun is
moving towards this 15 degree Capricorn, or in opposition (180 degrees) to this
degree or in square (90 degrees) to this degree, it will stimulate activity and
bring out the potential of what these energies suggest in your chart.
You
will also have to look at which house is being transited by Pluto as well as
the house natal Pluto resides in within the birth chart as these will be the
areas of life that will be affected by this transit of Pluto to Venus.
The
trines (120 degrees) and sextiles (60 degrees) from transiting Sun and Mars
will also affect the timing but it may not be as noticeable as the square (90
degrees) or opposition (180 degrees) and especially by the conjunction (0
degrees).
The
conjunction is widely used as a timer in Astrology. Checking to see when this is activated either
from the Sun or Mars will help you to pinpoint the potential for activity. You may be able to narrow down the time to
one or two weeks. As mentioned, the
progressed Moon especially by conjunction will often activate any planet it
makes contact with, and you can often use this as a tool for pinpointing timing
as well.
