Venus-Pluto is, especially right now, an interesting combo; I’m imagining all that Pluto has unearthed in Capricorn now receiving a balm of Love–or will we instead see just what stirring up the status quo has cost? These two get together and the intensity, even in an Earth sign, can be overwhelming–we must ask, Why so serious?

No doubt about it, today and tomorrow we’ll spend scraping to the bone in relationships, and we may try to cut costs to their skeletal minimum; the impulse to excavate what we treasure may cause untold (even permanent) damage, but there’s also the chance that secrets that have moldered in the dark for far too long will come to light–and so might those sources of Love, Money, or those catalysts for change we have been unaware of or frightened of, until now.

The current meeting of Venus and Pluto in Capricorn may quite easily get all mixed up with other influences lingering near the same degree across the zodiac: Chiron, Uranus, even near midnight Pacific time, the Moon. Don’t accept erratic or wounding events as having a Venus-Pluto origin; if this duo wanted to wound, it would be fatal.

Don’t take anything in the Love or resources department for granted at this time, and certainly, if you can, shine a little love into the darkness; in Capricorn Venus-Pluto will embrace their passions and turn them into something solid, reliable, sturdy–and sometimes that’s much better than just stealing kisses in the dark.
