The Moon moving through the signs on DrStandley.com

The Moon in Leo trine Jupiter in Aries at exactly 11:49 AM EDT. Lunar aspects have an 'orb of influence' of 12 to 14 hours 'before' and 'after' their exactness.

The Moon in Leo sextile Venus in Gemini at exactly 5:59 PM EDT. Lunar aspects have an 'orb of influence' of 12 to 14 hours 'before' and 'after' their exactness.

Mars in Aries square Pluto in Capricorn at exactly 10:14 PM EDT where it began in applying degrees on June 21, 2022, it is exact today, and will last in separating degrees until July 13, 2022.

Welcome to the beginning of the 'Summer from Hell'. There will be more heated exchanges, explosions, fires, firing(s) from jobs, hot weather, heat related accidents, heat as in 'horny' sexually obsessed people like Ghislaine Maxwell and Christina Aguilera who recently stepped on stage with a penis attachment (oh that's real attractive), heatstroke victims like the dead migrants in a tractor trailer, fireworks in more ways that one, and more . . . . it's happening.

This brings me to the BIG NEWS today, which is Mars square Pluto. Squares Beware! When you see this aspect it packs a double-powerful punch. Think of Popeye v. Brutus. Both characters come off strong in their own way. When Popeye eats spinach, he gains incredible strength, saves the day, and ends up as the hero. Brutus on the other hand is Popeye's nemesis and assumes the role of the bully.

The scene we all find ourselves in is choosing between how one handles Life (Popeye) and how the other handles Life (Brutus). What is also interesting is that this Mars square Pluto energy is present while the Sun square Jupiter (ill gotten gain) is still present and while Venus sextile Jupiter (money and Love) is still present. Remember, these two (2) aspects showed up on Tuesday - June 28, 2022 and still remain in the 'orb of influence' until July 6th and 7th, 2022. The reason why this is interesting is because Brutus is constantly plotting to romance Olive Oyl at Popeye's expense, and Brutus had a habit of chasing ill gotten gain.

Having said that, you 'will' assume the role of either Popeye or Brutus. Watch closely how others handle themselves during this energy as well because it could make you switch sides. This is where the rubber meets the road. This can help you switch your attitude, tone and presentation super-quick when you see what one side really looks like versus the other.

In Roman religion and myth, Mars is the 'god of war'. Also in Roman religion and myth, Pluto is the 'god of death'. DAY-YANG! But wait a minute . . . Pluto is also the 'god of wealth'. That's right! Taurus and Scorpio are opposite signs. Taurus rules the 2nd house of personal wealth and possessions, earned income and morals and values. Scorpio, it's opposite sign, rules the 8th house of other people's money, insurance, wills, beneficiaries, windfalls and money through the spouse or business partner.

Pluto in Capricorn on DrStandley.com

Pluto is also the 'god of the underworld'. Where do you think precious gems and diamonds are found? Well they aren't found in trees. They are found deep within the earth. So those of you with Mars square Pluto in your Solar Return, will have a different story to tell if that square has a direct hit from a positive aspect. This could easily signify increase in wealth. But you can't be acting like an idiot because this is a very tough aspect to have and could easily make you throw your weight around like a bully on the playground and then suddenly there is a fall from Grace along with wealth.

Pluto is also the planet of transformation, which tells us that there will be a 'transfer of wealth' from the rich to the unfortunate, low-income and the middle-class. But, we have to go through these lessons first.

While this aspect carries an incredible amount of power, it can be channeled in any way you see fit. When you think of Pluto, think Plutonium and then think, "Damn, that's a lot of power."

This is an explosion of power like none other. This energy always cause my mind to think of the HUGE trash pile underneath the earths surface in Bridgeton, Missouri - a suburb of St. Louis in St. Louis County. Google it! Several years ago when I saw the explosion of the Beirut blast, it caused me to think of this pile of trash again in Bridgeton, MO.

It might interest you to know that these celebrities have Mars square Pluto in their natal chart. Note the energy that they put out there and what has been returned to them by way of karma. Penelope Cruz, John McEnroe (angry tennis player), Bruce Lee (martial arts great), Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry, Jimmy Swaggert (disgraced TV pastor), Harvey Weinstein (pervert, rapist and film producer), Mohammed Ali. Notice the extremes in the individuals listed.

Mars and Pluto are co-rulers of Scorpio. Mars is the ancient-ruler of Scorpio, as well as the modern-day ruler of competitive, assertive and aggressive Aries. Pluto is the modern-day ruler of Scorpio. So Mars square Pluto has a double-packed-payload of Scorpio energy, which is intense, passionate, cruel, jealous, biting, stinging, obsessed and hard. Squares beware, especially when they are as aggressive and in yo' face as Mars and Pluto.

Mars in Aries on DrStandley.com

Folks, this aspect finds itself in a collection of Solar Returns every single year. The last time we saw this aspect was on October 22, 2021, which affected 2021 Solar Returns from October 9, 2021 until November 3, 2021. So all of those Solar Returns (birth dates) have this aspect in their Solar Return until their birthday in 2022. These are the birth dates that are still in their Popeye v. Brutus character and now the birth dates from June 21st until July 13, 2022 are being slapped directly with this energy until their birth date next year. Damn, that's some tough energy!

Back in 2020 this same aspect hit birth dates from July 25, 2020 until January 12, 2021 which influenced and impacted those Solar Return birth dates for an entire year. Now it's June 21st until July 13, 2022 birth dates to choose between acting like Popeye v. Brutus.

Now the rest of us who are experiencing this aspect as a transit, meaning the energy is flying over our Natal Charts like an airplane, we will experience this energy between the two (2) houses represented by Aries and Capricorn since Mars is in Aries squaring Pluto in Capricorn. If seen as an airplane flying over the chart wheel, this would be like a bomber type of airplane wreaking havoc in those areas of your Life, meaning the houses involved. Still choose, between Popeye v. Brutus energy.

WHAT DOES ALL THAT MEAN?

This energy is so aggressive with plenty of aggressive energy to follow-up in July 2022, that I have been calling this the 'Summer from Hell.' There will be more heated exchanges, explosions, fires, firing(s) from jobs, hot weather, heat related accidents, heat as in 'horny' sexually obsessed people like Ghislaine Maxwell and Christina Aguilera who recently stepped on stage with a penis attachment, heatstroke victims like the dead migrants in a tractor trailer, and fireworks over 4th of July weekend . . . . it's happening. Watch for more incidents, accidents and evidence that reveals proof of underhanded, scheming, plotting and Brutus type of shenanigans.

You must remember that Pluto is in Capricorn during this Mars square Pluto aspect. THIS IS HUGE! Remember, Pluto in Capricorn is the 'fall' of authority and authority figures. I suspect the church(es) will be next, which is going to hurt really really bad, even those who do not go to a physical church. Note in the Pluto in Capricorn write-up where I mention the types of authority figures in government, military and even police. Note the people in the street with their fist in the air.

I wrote the Pluto in Capricorn write-up in October 2008, which lasts 16 years. That transit does not end until November 18, 2024. IT'S A DAMN MESS! The last few degrees are the hardest and the worst, which is where the lessons come in. The last and final degree at 29 degrees will be mastery. Folks, we are so close. SO CLOSE! Pluto is currently at 27 degrees 50 minutes. The caravans, the people, the streets, the corruption, etc.

Make your choices wisely on where you want to be, what you choose to be, where you throw, lend and offer your support. You will be held accountable to where you throw your chi (energy).

Mars square Pluto on DrStandley.com

Mars square Pluto is EXTREME to say the least. It is VOLATILE and downright DANGEROUS. It is difficult to handle because it is OVERLY FORCEFUL. Keep in mind, for the 2022 Solar Return, the birth dates between June 20, 2022 and July 13, 2022 will be the only ones with this aspect carrying it around for an entire year until their next birth date. Sure, the birth dates from the same 2021 aspect will still have this aspect in their 2022 birth date passes, but at least we can see this aspect being whittled down to a month's worth of birth dates.

Last years birth dates (2021) who are still experiencing this aspect until their 2022 birth date, includes A LOT of Libra's who are absolutely DEMANDING OF JUSTICE (the superhero), but at the same time there will be some that will be the bullies. Watch them!

This aspect is not only forceful, it is overly forceful. It's too much, over-the-top and hard to handle. This aspect will bully others in order to reach their own goals. We are definitely seeing this on a grand world-wide scale. We will also be seeing this dialed down to the real culprits after an enormous amount of people finally wake-up.

Life is nothing like it was last year, much less two (2) years ago. If that pill cannot be swallowed, then folks DO NOT EXPECT a larger pill to be swallowed. Something absolutely DRASTIC AND UN-FREAKIN-BELIEVABLE has to happen in order for the masses to get the message. The needle moving a tiny bit is not enough and the needle is presently only moving backward, not forward.

Folks, we are still in spiritual warfare. This is so far beyond Democrat and Republican. Folks, you have to let those words go because they simply do not exist as parties anymore. Your mama and daddy's old parties no longer exist. They just don't. There is a Uni-Party that exists. While some are blaming one side, the plan is to divide us and then conquer us. 'They' are on the same team, but have split and divided us. Who could possibly be FOR THIS government?

I have been wondering this whole time while Pluto has been in Capricorn, what will the new leaders look like and what will the new lawyers look like. Aries and Libra (opposite signs) have been hit super hard by Pluto in Capricorn by way of a square on each side of it. They will emerge stronger signs in their own right, but it didn't come without some pain. That's for dang sure! Aries and Libra have been tempted by Pluto to become bullies and some have fallen into the pit. Thankfully, Libra will NOT experience this aspect again until October 8, 2023 and then Aries on June 11, 2024, all the while Pluto in Capricorn will constantly feel this aspect until it is over. O.V.E.R. over!

This aspect ensures that all hell will break loose and it will be forceful and ugly. BE CAREFUL WHO YOU SUPPORT. If who you support does not look like God would approve and sanction it, then you have made the wrong choice.

At the same time you have to understand that ugly energy CANNOT AND SHOULD NOT be handled with kid gloves. You do not walk into a prison yard holding daisies and passing out juice boxes. Noooooo, you go into the prison yard spitting chew, talking tough and negotiating cigarettes. You have to stand in front of tough energy with confidence and bad-assery, not defunding the police and sending in camp counselors.

Some have to learn the hard way. There will come a time when the cry for help sounds like this . . . "POLICE HELP! PLEASE HELP! POLICE HELP! PLEASE HELP!" Granted the police HAD TO go through a reshaping and cleansing (Pluto), no doubt. I will give you that! But the tide will turn when the masses realize, the police are needed.

You can finally see how sooooooo many people are even confronting big tech with their middle fingers held high. You can see how the companies and workers are finally standing up for themselves and pretty much saying, "FU! You don't own me! You're not the boss of me."

Folks, the energy is shifting and it is shifting f-a-s-t. If your eyes and your heart are not yet opened, you will receive a hefty dose of reality.

As a gentle reminder, Jupiter in Aries represents our earth walking rescuers, superheros, first responders, who will be pressed into service. We may even see some called back into service who had previously retired, pretty much like we saw in the first stages of COVID.

Chances are you are going to come up on (or already have come up on) some strangely aggressive behavior thrown at you. I have already heard from the Astro community where strangely aggressive behavior was unleashed and hurled at them from the most unusual people over something that was really not meant to be hurtful. This is a case of 'the trouble-maker' vs. 'the innocent bystander'. It is THE person who is engaged in the strangely aggressive behavior and 'reacted' so harshly that is the one who is thinking in those aggressive terms because that is their actual energy and what they identify with, not the other person.

So you see folks, that is how you recognize the energy. Someone over-reacted. But then again, maybe it was YOU who engaged in some strangely aggressive behavior. Oooopsie, you may have shown a side of yourself and now the jury has seen it or heard it and now there are no take-backs. Dang, what's an Astrotator to do when they foul up and show a character flaw or two?

We are walking through a time where over-sensitivity is just too much. And we have experienced an over-sensitive Cancer Moon the past 2-1/2 days leading up to the Mars square Pluto aspect. It's too damn much energy babysitting grown adults infantile emotions and walking on eggshells protecting yourself from possibily saying the wrong thing every time you open your mouth.

This energy of Mars square Pluto will cause you to emerge as a protector, or you will emerge as a bully. There is no gray area here. Now keep in mind, a 'real protector' (Superhero) does not react as a bully. A protector will protect without losing their Good character and Good name.

Jealousy

A bully on the other hand will talk down to someone else telling them, "You, you, you . . . " Bully's absolutely Love to tell you how bad YOU are, and what YOU did, and what YOU need to do, so YOU can live in their world, according to their level of sensitivity. Oh man I can't stand the, "You, you, you" and when I hear it, that will definitely cause me to remember 'YOU'. Know the you'ers around you. You might see this firsthand where someone is coming to the defense of someone else and ends up appearing as the bully themselves instead of the protector. Sometimes it is best to stand back and let others fight their own battles lest you end up looking like the bully yourself.

This Mars square Pluto aspect will actually push people away or just stay away from people altogether. Maybe you wish to be left alone so you can clean the house and get your finances back in order. After all, Mars is the ancient ruler of Scorpio and Pluto is the modern-day ruler Scorpio and Scorpio is a money sign, which rules the 8th house of other people's money. If you cannot trust your emotions and level of sensitivity, then maybe staying home is a Good idea.

If you cannot trust your emotions and level of sensitivity, it would be wise to remember that making others angry is one thing, but injuring someone's spirit is a whole other story. People generally get over being angry and if they hang on to anger that is really their problem, not yours. But when you hurt someone's spirit and touch their soul thereby scratching their bones, that is something entirely different.

Jealousy

This aspect is also very sneaky where the Passive-Aggressive types will show their aggression (and maybe even secretly). You were going about your business and all of the sudden you get a phone call out of nowhere and someone tells you how angry they are at you.

Maybe that person is not really showing their bravery and decides to text you instead, so you can read and then re-read the text thereby putting all of the different emotional tones to it and now you are angry too. You might experience something where someone brings up something from four (4) months ago and throws it in your face.

Pluto is a colder than cold planet. In fact, it is as cold as dry ice and will burn you. Whew! Your response might be so cold that you say, "You should have told me four (4) months ago because now I don't give a damn!" That sounds like something I would say if someone stewed for four (4) months.

Scorpio is the sign of the burial, the dead, cremation, wills, beneficiaries and all things deep and buried beneath the surface. So don't be surprised when you think a topic or situation is dead and buried and then that thing rises up out of the ashes to haunt you and gets thrown in your face one last time . . . . until the next time.

Mars and Pluto are incredibly competitive planets, they are aggressive as all get out and Pluto is downright volcanic and erupting over every little thing. Remember, both Mars and Pluto are natural rulers of Scorpio, which carries jealousy and cruelty. These two (2) planets squaring each other can not only fight with each other, which is like shadowboxing itself, but it can bring up some unbelievablely unattractive insecurities.

Passive Aggressive

And another thing, Scorpio is the sign that rules sex, the genitalia and secret sex. This aspect 'can' and 'will' get you into trouble sexually if you do not control yourself. I GUARANTEE, we are going to see some high-powered folks go down as a result of this aspect for financial or sexual reasons. We have been seeing this over the past 14 years with Pluto in Capricorn present, but when it squares Mars in Aries or Mars in Libra, we get a hefty dose of KICK YO' ASS! including high-powered celebrities and the like.

Thank God people are now paying attention to the pedophile rings and human traffickers. IT'S REAL and it always has been. There still needs to be more attention paid to pedophile rings and human traffickers, but at least the phrases and verbiage is out there.

While some with this aspect may project onto their partner, it is the person with this aspect who needs to watch their sexual tendencies. There is sexual tension, sexuality, sensuality and sexy everything accompanying this aspect including pornography and sexual innuendo. You must monitor and channel this energy. While embracing your sexuality and sensuality is a Good thing, it is better to embrace it than to misuse it, abuse you or channel it in a way that could get you into some real trouble. Do you get me?

Solar Return Report on DrStandley.com

So back to, what's an Astrotator to do when they foul up and show a character flaw or two? Well the first thing you do is recognize this energy when you see it, in yourself or others. That's why we study astrology so we can recognize the energy. So if your bullying side shows up, then know to back off and shut the 'F' up!

All too often it is easy to point fingers at others, but what about yourself? What about you? How are you engaged and participating in this energy? How are you actively seeking to respond as the 'Superhero' rather than 'The Bully'? And I don't mean this in a passive-aggressive way. How are you rising above to show your best self?

Since Mars and Pluto naturally rule Scorpio, this is the sign of 'the Phoenix Rising' so use this energy wisely. Rise above! Remember, this aspect will last as a transit for all of us until July 13, 2022. For those with birth dates between June 20 and July 13, 2022, all of those birth date will carry this energy for a year until their next birthday in 2023.

THIS IS ADDENDUM POSTED at 8:30 AM EDT --- Folks, you have seen me write, and I'm certain by now you have seen others say and write, that we are in a 'spiritual war'. Too many are still only using their human eyeballs and emotions instead of their spirit being to see 'beyond'.

It's gonna get ugly folks, really really ugly, and what we have experienced is still not enough. The energy is going to have to hit closer to home in order for so many others to see clearly.

You can skip over these next three (3) small paragraphs and go straight to the paragraph that starts with "Back to 'spiritual war' if the degrees information is too much or confusing.

Neptune turned Retrograde (Rx) on June 28th, 2022 until Dec. 3rd, 2022 to give you another eyeball wash. At the same time, for others Neptune will cause a 'haze' or 'fog' to make you squint and slow down so you can see better. Folks, Neptune is in his later degrees. These later degrees intend on teaching us a lesson so when we get to the 29th degree (karmic degree aka anaretic degree) we will have reached 'mastery'.

If I wrote your Expansive Natal Chart and you have a 29th degree planet, I did address this and write about it in your chart.

Neptune is currently at 25 degrees, Pluto is also Rx at 27 degrees 50 minutes (just under 28 degrees), Saturn is at 24 degrees 47 minutes (just under 25 degrees).

Oh you better believe sh!t is getting ready to go down.

Expansive Natal Chart on DrStandley.com

Back to 'spiritual war' . . . call me crazy because I don't really give a rats-ass, but when baal aka moloch aka satan's food is taken away, with that being human sacrifice IN ALL FORMS, then understand this, that dark energy will take away our food in return. We take away his access to food (children, people) so he will take away our access to food.

You have been tipped off, and tipped off, and tipped off, to stock-up. It's been slowly occurring and still, the blind cannot see, and continue to rally together to offer up the children.

Even the police in Uvalde, Texas stood back and allowed a slaughtering of children. It's not about an inanimate object called a gun . . . it's about the children!!!

While you are marching, protesting, playing with your phone, and texting and driving, the store shells will gradually empty and you will be caught with your pants down (so to speak). While you are 'caught' not looking or listening, the dark energy will take away your food source(s).

Folks, I write from a spiritual space, not just a human emotional physical space. You have to start connecting some dots.

And here's the thing . . . dark forces will warn you. Damn, haven't you ever seen a crime, horror or CSI type of show where the dark energy warns you what they are 'gonna do'. It's the threat. They turn the weapon sideways and threaten, "I'm gonna . . . . " if you don't give them what they want.

The dark energy is so cocky, blatant, bold and self-certain that they are telling you EXACTLY what they will do. Think back to these words we heard . . . "It's going to be a long dark winter" . . . "Get your Christmas presents early". . . . "as long as it takes" . . . "Inflation is the bane of our existence. Inflation is mostly in food and in gasoline, at the pump" . . . as 666iden said on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE.

For God's sake . . . LISTEN!

Surely you have heard, "they" are after your children . . . whether that is trafficking, abortion, the vaccine, school, CRT (critical race theory) because children are THE FOOD SOURCE for baal aka moloch aka satan. Arrrrghhhh!

By the way, children are not sexy, YOUR CHILDREN ARE NOT SEXY . . . parents need to stop feeding their children to such dark energies.

For God's sake . . . STOP IT! #ChildrenAreNotSexy . . . #YourChildrenAreNotSexy . . . stop presenting them to the world in that way or giving your permission for them to present in that way. Wake the F up!
