Mars Quincunx Pluto

A quincunx is where two (2) signs pretty much have nothing in common and sit there wondering what to do about each other. It's like they are saying, "What now?" This is how you feel completely uncomfortable in your own family, or with people you should feel comfortable with, but yet you have nothing in common, and sometimes you have nothing to even fight over, so you might just make something up in order to tango/tangle.

It's weird and uncomfortable energy to say the least. You just cannot seem to land in the same space and it's like you are coming from different worlds that are not even opposite worlds. Further, a quincunx is an angle that sits at 150 degrees, which is between a trine at 120 degrees and an opposition at 180 degrees.

Mars quincunx Pluto is like an awkward power grab. Keep in mind that Pluto is the higher-octave of Mars, and Mars is assertive and aggressive all by itself and doesn't need any help. The quincunx is weird and uncomfortable, which is pretty much awkward. And as a result of that awkward power move, the ego gets checked and the individual is the first to be voted off the island.

Be mindful how you use this energy because in your desire to get things completed, moved, done, finished and off the ground, there is a tendency to push around, boss around and maybe even bully others in order to get your desires met. Mars and Pluto are the planet of 'desire', which is deep and sometimes even has a longing to it. Mars and Pluto can be insecure, cruel, competitive and jealous. Day-yam!!! So you see, this is 'not' the most attractive character trait.

As this aspect moves across your chart as a transit or if you find it in your Solar Return, then you will need to manage your temperament, tolerance and limits. The majority of people DO NOT like to be bossed around. People may not mind being managed, but being bossed and pushed around is a whole other thing.

If you have ever watched the TV show 'Survivor', the aggressor or bossy one is usually tossed off the island in a heartbeat. Let that resonate with you.

This aspect can also get on a power trip or become obsessive about someone or something, which is pretty much a 'control freak'. As a transit, we will all feel this the few days that it floats over our charts, but those who have this aspect in their Solar Return will have to check their desire or tendency to manipulate, power move or control others.

This aspect usually ends up causing an individual to hurt themselves rather than anyone else. And here's the thing, Mars is a personal planet, while Pluto is a generational planet. This aspect could easily cause younger individuals to be insensitive or unflinching to older individuals.

Mars quincunx Pluto is also ambitious, which can be another very unattractive character trait if not self-checked. Moving toward and completing goals is one thing, but ambition can cause an individual to only think of themselves without thought or care to how it impacts others. Blind ambition is even worse.

Check yourself when this aspect shows up lest you be the first one voted off the island. In other words, you will not be the favorite or popular one if you insist on being pushy, bossy or controlling.
