Holm Astrology has been creating "Astrology" and "Food For Thought" posts for over 10 years.  Wix has taken over the Vista Print websites and as a result of the migration of our information, a large portion of our blog posts are currently lost. 

 

We realize our Astrology posts are vital to our students.

With Pluto Square the Nodes, a new direction in life is about to become reality.  It may be very difficult to move forward but, in most cases, someone will assist you with this.  Outside influences are quite common when the nodes are involved.  Someone may come into your life temporarily forcing you to find a new path and then leave without much notice, but they were the reason you moved in the required direction.
Pluto Square Natal Nodes

Pluto square the natal Nodes (north and/or south nodes) suggests that there are power struggles when it comes to moving in the direction of choice.  There is the possibility that you are now entering a new path in life although it will be linked to what the North Node’s energies suggests which is defined by its sign and house position.  This new route may not be a comfortable one, but over time, you will realize that it is the correct path (again linked to the North Nodes sign and house position in your Natal chart). 

 

The path of the North Node can be challenging as, again, it is unfamiliar.  The North Node is your destiny so it is best to go with the flow rather than fight against the current of change.  Leave behind what no longer serves a viable purpose and move forward with an understanding that you will be moving in the direction required during this life.

 

In some cases, however, the path being currently taken is not your destined path. Other individuals may be influencing your decisions. You must make certain that the choices you are making are not because someone else suggested that that this would be the best route to take for you.  Square aspects indicate obstacles to overcome and challenges to be met.

 

Because the Nodes are always exactly opposite one another, Pluto Square the North Node will also be Square the South Node. This will create a T-Square.  Wherever Transiting Pluto is in your Natal Chart, the energies represented by the opposing house will be an area of life that requires your focus.  The T-Square is similar to a chair missing its fourth leg.  It is out of balance and requires your attention where the fourth leg should be located so that you can create the balance needed.

 

Pluto is a dynamic planet, and while in transit, Pluto can cause a corrosive interaction if you have a Natal Planet or Angle within a three-degree range Conjunct the position of Transiting Pluto.  If you have a planet or angle at the opposing position of Transiting Pluto, you will now have a Grand Square forming between the Transiting Nodes, Transiting Pluto and your positioning interchange at the Opposition to Pluto.  This aspect can be very challenging. (To use current time locations, because transiting Pluto is now in Aquarius, for this Grand Square to become activated and powerful, the Nodes would also be in Fixed signs creating a Grand Fixed Square.  If they are out of modality then the Square is not as powerful.)

 

Grand Fixed Squares suggests that there are several areas of life creating challenges currently, and this can last up to three years before the energy completely subsides.  The T-Square as well as the Grand Square are troubling connections and require interaction with those involved in order to find resolution.  The fact that there are Squares involved suggests that although the energies in place are very difficult at times, especially when direct, the square forces you into action to find solutions to the challenging situations at hand.  As far as considering the difficulty of this aspect, the rest of the chart along with the current transits from other planets to the natal chart would have to be delineated.

 

With Pluto Square the Nodes, a new direction in life is about to become reality.  It may be very difficult to move forward but, in most cases, someone will assist you with this.  Outside influences are quite common when the nodes are involved.  Someone may come into your life temporarily forcing you to find a new path and then leave without much notice, but they were the reason you moved in the required direction.

This is a significant New Moon coming up on July 24, 2025 because it receives several aspects from different outer planetary placements. 

 

Take advantage of the Leo New Moon 2025.  There is potential at hand. Move forward with confidence as a new direction is warranted and the chance of success is high.
Leo New Moon

This New Moon will be in the sign of Leo at 2°.  It receives aspects from Pluto at 2° Aquarius which is an Opposition, a Trine from Saturn and Neptune which are 1° and 2° respectively in Aries, and Uranus which is 0° in the sign of Gemini making a Sextile. 

 

New Moon’s suggest that it is the appropriate time to begin something new, make plans and orchestrate an action plan.  When the New Moon is in Leo, these energies will relate to self-proposed goals.  This indicates moving ahead with confidence with whatever you set in place and that there will be a strong potential for success.  You may have a strong feeling that you know what is best, and you will push ahead with confidence and assert your individuality regardless of any pushback.  The press for success is strong and it stems from the heart.  What you do now will have an influence on others in a positive way.

 

You can be assertive with your plans although with the Opposition from Pluto there is a suggestion that this will manifest in ways that regenerate and transform conditions that others may not approve of, or that others believe should include their input.  Others may want to direct your actions in ways that suit them or offer advice that may stagnate or change the direction you have in mind.  Other options are important, but you believe you know the best way forward. You likely will not listen to their advice as they may tend to dictate rather than conform to your ideologies.

 

At the same time, there is a positive relevance stemming from transiting Saturn and Neptune.  Neptune helps with your vision and creative potential, while Saturn offers stability and structure which may be required as you move forward to create some lasting results.  Reality sets in due to Saturn’s influence, and you understand that the path forward might not flow as smoothly as you might want it to. Your chances for success are highlighted because of the placement of these two planetary energies.

 

The Sextile from Uranus, which also has strong implications, will be in effect into the fall of this year (2025).  Uranus is about creating change because what has been in place now needs to be revamped or the direction of things needs to move out of complacency and into a new and better direction.  Uranus is known as the awakener and can bring sudden insights into the picture helping you to progress in new areas because of what you set out to do during this time frame.

 

The house locations of these transiting planets along with the placement of this New Moon in your Natal chart provides insight into the areas of life involved.  Check to see if other natal positions come into play as well, especially a Conjunction or Opposition to the New Moon’s placement of 2° Leo.  The overall chart will have to be delineated carefully to get the full picture.

 

Take advantage of the Leo New Moon 2025.  There is potential at hand. Move forward with confidence as a new direction is warranted and the chance of success is high.

Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.
October Solar Eclipse

On October 2, 2024, we will be experiencing a Solar Eclipse in the sign of Libra at 10°. 

 

If you have natal planets either conjunct, opposition or square to this position, primarily the Conjunction and Opposition, you will be affected by these energies, and possibly in a powerful manner depending on other transits in place at the time when this eclipse is in effect.  You can allow a 3° orb of influence, so planets between 7° and 13° of this placement in the appropriate signs will be influenced.  All major aspects will have some effect on this placement. 

 

A few months leading up to this timing will begin to show what has potential to manifest.  This influence can be strong for about one year, but last as long in years as the eclipse lasts in hours.  According to www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/solar/2024-october-2 the first location to see the partial eclipse begins at approximately 11:43 a.m EDT and the last place to see the partial eclipse ends at approximately 5:47 EDT.

 

Since this eclipse is in the sign of Libra (you always must take into consideration the sign and the house placement of any eclipse), the main influence will have to do with relationships.  This may include your spouse or significant other, close friends or business associates.  It involves fairness, justice, balancing, harmonious yearnings and perhaps making things right. 

 

It often encompasses new beginnings or endings and opportunities for significant change.  There is often an important shift where we must let go of what was or the past and move ahead possibly in a new direction.  Important life events are often tied to when Eclipses’ energies take hold, and again the house position will define what area of life may be involved.  Transformation and change are key characteristics of eclipses.  Sometimes it can bring unexpected change when we least anticipate it, but this change is often just what is needed in the long haul.

 

Transiting Mercury is closely tied to the conjunction of the Sun and Moon during this eclipse, and this suggests that the mind is closely tied to what takes place.  You may have been thinking about things for some time and now is the time for action or when action takes place.  Sometimes destiny seems to prevail and much of what takes place is beyond our control.  Things change because they need to.  Intensions play a big part in what unfolds, and goals also come into play.

 

Along with Transiting Mercury, we also have a Grand Water Trine with Venus (love and affection), Mars (sexual energy and drive) and Saturn (a steadying effect which can solidify things and bring stability).  The Grand Water Trine suggests emotional connections have the potential of working well and moving along nicely.  You are self-sufficient at handling any events that may unfold, and you do not depend on others to do the work necessary or to move you in the intended direction.  The emotions may be kept under wraps at this time as you know you can handle anything that may surface, and things flow without obstruction.

 

Embrace the energies of the October Solar Eclipse which will be influenced by the energies of Libra. Let go of the past and move forward into your new direction.
