By now, with Pluto having begun to transition into your relationship sector in March 2023 and having now settled in for a 20 year continuous stay in November 2024, you will have a feel for his influence. Pluto is the planet of change and transformation and this first visit to your relationship sector in our lifetime is taking you on a journey that over time, can change how you approach your relationships, while helping both you and your relationships make the kind of changes or just to lean in the direction that can create more authentic relationships. While Pluto can bring sudden change, here for so long, it is more about evolution and slow turns in the right direction. You will also be starting to become aware of sticking points, when this long term focus on your relationships comes up against times when your own needs are important as well. You experienced this when Mars was retrograding back out of Leo in the New Year, when he returned in April and again at the very end of last month, when Mercury returned to Leo. As you move into the new month, a clash between Mercury and Pluto is just starting to separate, while the Sun will face the same when he returns to begin your birthday month and new solar year on 23rd July. The reality is, for the next 20 years no planet can return to Leo without clashing with Pluto, something that is key to maintaining the right balance between your own and your relationship needs. For Mercury, who because of a retrograde turn on 18th July, will not only spend the whole of July in Leo but the whole of August as well, as the planet of communication he will be using this to get the communication lines open. This will be especially helpful when the Moon makes its monthly visit to your relationship sector from 12th July to 14th July. It is a few days earlier that the Moon will not only return to your romantic sector from 7th July to 9th July, but coming full circle from last month's Full Moon, these romantically charged lunar vibes will have a lot more potency.
