Mars brings impulsive energy wherever he touches in a chart. Rash, headstrong, action orientated, fearless and a battle warrior. He is the natural ruler of the first house of self. He rules Aries, the first sign of the zodiac. Aries rules the head and resonates to "me, me, me".
Pluto is power and control. Wherever the Lord of the Underworld is lording, powerful forces are at work that revenge, regenerate, resurrect and reincarnate. Pluto is the natural ruler of the 8th house of birth, death, sex, psychology and other's money. He rules Scorpio, the 8th sign of the Zodiac. Scorpio rules the reproductive organs and resonates to "I know".
Mars is the courage to battle demons. Pluto is the demon. Working in harmony, these two planets energies ensure supreme victories. It is when these two energies are jarring that life altering, ultimately life affirming, situations can arise. The energy clash requires bravery to face the darkness of the underworld.
Whilst looking at my family's charts recently I noticed Mars was to conjunct my youngest grandson's natal Pluto in his 6th house. Knowing the potential of this aspect I investigated further. His natal Pluto is in opposition to his natal Mars in the 12th house. This aspect was about to be transit triggered. My grandson is 6 yrs old. The 6th/12th axis can relate to health and hospitals. With the Mars and Pluto interplay I could see potential for an accident.
Before allowing my protective, maternal instincts to take over, I looked to his mother's (my daughter) chart for confirmation. Low and behold Mars was making a direct hit to her natal Neptune in the 5th house at the same time. I interpreted this as Mars-male, impulsive action, activating her Neptune-psychic, hospital, water, gas, in the 5th house area of-children, fun, sport.
Right then time to ring and gently forewarn. Astrology is a great tool to empower. Not only does it give identification to energies potential. It gives time frames. Free will and destiny don't have to be opposite ends of the stick.
I received a phone call late last night. My daughter rang to tell me my grandson had split his head open at the shops earlier while climbing a trolley barrier and falling back onto metal floor tracks. Typical Mars. My daughter was in the process of saying "stop, get down or you'll fall and crack your head." when it happened. My daughter said she could see it actually happening in her head right before it did. Classic Neptune. She rushed over and held him and willed him to open his eyes or scream out as he was just lying still (Pluto, fear, death). Then her hand just filled with blood (Mars) and her clothes were soaked in it. He began to cry and she said she had felt she was in a bubble with only herself and her son. The crowd and pandemonium had a far away feel.( Neptune and I believe Spiritual protection). My grandson was taken to hospital (12th house, Neptune), received stitches (Mars, Scorpio, Pluto), without anaesthetic (Neptune).
My daughter said there was nothing she could have done. She had been watching her son so carefully during my time frame warning. They had witnessed two car accidents right near them and she had prevented him from playing in his tree house before gale force winds suddenly came through. This accident was split second, inside, right next to her, while she was being served.
Destiny and free will combined. Let me explain. The planetary energies were going to play out. This was predetermined before birth. A destiny or Karma exchange was inherent at this time. The means to attaining the life lesson or soul directive was immaterial. The deeper imprint was the goal. The high road or the low road is choice. To listen to our instincts, conscience, common sense or inner calling is choice. To notice signs, omens, symbolism or life currents is choice. I can surmise the soul imprint for my daughter, grandson, older sibling who witnessed and even the supporting cast members of the public and shop staff, medical personal etc. All who had a small or large part to partake of the energy. Either to give or receive their own karma. But that would be arrogant of me as I have already played my part and received my lesson/gift. Also a soul's journey is deeply personal and individual. The Higher Universal Energy/ Goddess/God etc is beyond mortal complete comprehension as it is ALL. The ripples of destiny go wider and deeper, through many incarnations, than I could possibly fathom at this point of my evolution. Also words cannot completely convey Spiritual insight and communication. I believe my daughter's conscious free will may have offset other potential outcomes, thereby negating more sinister/dangerous/life threatening outcomes. Beliefs and thoughts really do create our reality in this dimension.
