Sun Squares Pluto Oct 2025

Oct 23-24 is the second of 2025's twice-annual Sun-Pluto squares. The Sun's in Scorpio, Pluto's in Aquarius. We're coming off a New Scorpio Moon including Lunar conjunctions with Mercury and Mars (also in Scorpio). Luna Moon is headed into Sagittarius within a day's time. As I write this, the Ascendant where I live is Capricorn.

A crisis is manufactured, but someone's sure to come out looking like a big hero. How much are we willing to risk for self-indulgence? Everything? Well, you know what they say - Risk big, win big. Don't start crying if you lose. People are watching, as you've already created quite a spectacle. This could actually be a perfect opportunity to set a strong example for others on how to behave with integrity under pressure.

Got planets, points, or luminaries near a fixed sign cusp? The 0th or 1st degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, or Aquarius? You'll feel this one good. Enjoy that. Learn it. Know it. Live it.

Natal Pluto square Sun types have to deal with this every day. An extreme folk. The ones that don't wind up dead have all flown too close to The Sun. You'll want to hear their stories of hubris and the times they barely survived. In the ideal, you wind up with people who no longer flinch at life's ugliest. An epic arc of redemption and demon-slaying. You almost envy 'em.
