This aspect is one the twelve more volatile
aspects in astrology (comprised of oppositions and squares with any combination of Mars, Saturn,
Uranus and Pluto), which I have observed. They are often accompanied, in their more extreme effects, with violence, accidents,
surprises, natural disasters . It is somewhat easier to see the effects
of these aspects as the more spectacular
ones tend to get heavier media coverage.
With Mars being the fastest planet involved in these combinations (travels around the zodiac every two years), this means that there are volatile Mars aspects in effect for approximately three months every year. This underscores the importance of integrating the Mars energy in one's chart, which can include anger, aggressiveness and impulsiveness.
The list below is meant to give an example of the more volatile events that typically occur during these aspects. By following the news at these times, one can get the impression that the world is complete chaos. However, as noted, these aspects are only in effect roughly twenty-five percent of the year. They do however put a greater focus on what one could call the horror of living.
One way to look at this stark reality of life is to consider that these aspects can have the role of pushing already tense or fragile situations to a breaking point, which has the useful effect of bursting the abscess to prevent further infection, as it were, or pointing out flaws in a structure that require greater attention for security, maintenance and repair. Moreover, if there were a greater awareness of astrology, many of these tragic incidents could be avoided. These can also be considered useful times to learn to integrate the Mars energies and these are also periods where one can learn to use the intense energy that is manifesting in productive ways.
The Summer quarter had two very volatile aspects, with Mars in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn going exact on July 1st and Mars square Saturn, exact on August 7.
According to Café Astrology: Mars square Pluto: You are especially sensitive to anything that reminds you that you are
not in control now. Your desires are intense and difficult to satisfy
under this influence. A tendency to bully and confront may dominate.
Efforts to make changes could be thwarted, or power struggles emerge.
The trick is to remain flexible and to develop strategies. The desire to
get the upper hand is strong, but it’s unlikely to happen under this
influence. It would be wise to observe whatever powerful feelings that
confrontations or conflicts arouse under this influence, as this transit
has a way of pulling out suppressed matter, or emotional “slush”.
Passions run high, and so does sexual energy.
Below is a list of 40 incidents that occurred from roughly June 23rd to July 7, when the aspect was in a relatively close orb. They are not the result of a rigorous comparative statistical analysis proving definite causality from the aspect, but rather a random sample of events that seemed to me to have the Mars and Pluto characteristics of this aspect.
In my post for the Summer chart, I opined that the following aspect could indicate a strong characteristic for the quarter: Sun quincunx Pluto 'An event or person may trigger this tipping point by
taking away your personal power. In relationships, you could react by trying to
control and manipulate the other person which would result in conflict and
bruised egos'.
The political events below could be considered examples of how this aspect played out.
