An interesting mix of influences today involving Pluto and Venus.
Venus opposite Juno suggests challenges, projections or endings involving a set relationship agreement (Juno) versus intense expressions of love or desire (Venus). What one partner wants may be at odds with the commitment/agreement. Venus rules Taurus, but in Scorpio her energy pushes past Taurus’ limits and demands more extreme expressions. Money and/or love could be an issue. Perhaps one partner wants something deeper, or is projecting their own secrets/obsessions onto a union.
However, Pluto (ruler of Scorpio) makes a supportive sextile to Venus, and Pluto is just moving away from a trine with Juno. So what’s happening is part of a necessary transformation. A new relationship is emerging and the strength of what’s developing will push both partners to look at what lies beneath their commitment.
Pluto makes a tricky square to Pallas in Venus-ruled Libra, suggesting these changes will challenge superficial (Libra) relationship strategies. There may be a social power struggle: a passive-aggressive battle. Pallas in Libra is about keeping it nice and balanced, at all costs – strategic politeness. While it’s important to not allow things to devolve, simply focusing on keeping it nice will not be enough. This is about keeping it real, and Pallas’ inconjunct to Juno indicates tension between social niceties versus the basics of the agreement.
There are three angles here – the social surface, the deeper undercurrents and the material/physical reality of the commitment. All three make up the complete relationship.
