MERCURY SQUARE PLUTO
This aspect is a seat of inner tensions. The tension of the square gives us motivation. Squares are dynamic aspects that give us the drive to succeed. What begins as an inner problem is overcome or accepted, and then becomes a door to understanding.
Mercury rules the mind, mental energy and the power of mental pursuasion. Mercury is the sign of mental telepathy, the thinking mind and things compart-mental-ized in the mind. Pluto rules transformation through destruction, only to end up in reconstruction. Pluto is powerful and behaves like plutonium, where it completely destroys only to rebuild anew. Pluto levels one thing to cause something else to rise up out of the ashes, just like the phoenix-rising arises from the ashes. Pluto destructs in order to reconstruct and there is where the transformation takes place.
You have probably heard, "If you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all." It really is better that you adopt this motto when this aspect is present because it can literally tear someone's world apart in one brutal sentence. Once the word or phrase is spoken, then jury has heard it and it will be hard to take it back. There are no take-backs with this aspect.
Mercury rules communication and Pluto rules Scorpio. If you know a Scorpio, then you know that a Scorpio never minces their words. Scorpio's words can cut like a knife with harsh, deep penetration or their words can slide your pants right off of you and slip you into bed without you knowing what the hell happened. This aspect tells it like it is, regardless of what you think.
This is a rather secretive aspect that strikes out and stings without warning or sympathy. This aspect is deliberate, cunning, sharp and unapologetic. There is a strong probability that this aspect will be used to persuade others to think a certain way or used to gain control over others.
Interestingly enough, this may be the first Mercury square Jupiter aspect in several years where President Trump WILL NOT be slapped with a gag order, or silenced, banned, and removed from social media platforms. NOW, the shoe is on the other foot. Watch and listen for 'silencing' or 'gag orders' slapped on others.
More importantly, still, we as a global population, are being censored and told to shut up. To 'Zip it!' And here's the thing, many of you will have an opportunity to take a page out of Jesus's playbook and say, "Depart from me, I don't know you."
It's going to be tough folks. Some of these same people will want you to share your provisions, but made fun of you when you were building your ark. Here we go, it's the 'oil in the lamps' all over again. (Matthew 25:1-13) You have to make certain you still have enough oil for yourself.
Many of you will feel like you need to just ZIP IT! Maybe because you really can't say something nice, maybe because you are Mr. or Miss Cranky Pants, or maybe you have just had it with warning others and being treated as though you were invisible. I hear ya'. I wanna grab some stuff out of people's grocery carts and tell them, "WAKE THE F UP YOU IDIOT!"
I'm sure you have stood back and watched someone make absolutely insane decisions and there was nothing you could do about it. It's not your place, further it's not any of your business, so you say to yourself, "Self! ZIP IT!"
Some will 'ZIP IT' because they are censored and just fell in line because they were told to "ZIP IT!" so they do, which does not help, aid or assist them or anyone else, so then in turn, others will 'ZIP IT' and not talk, share or assist because they chose not to hear.
Folks, ZIP IT! Do not waste your breath or scatter your pearls among the swine. (Matthew 7:6) For some, there is nothing you can do except step back and literally watch a train wreck. Sorry about the inference, but these train wrecks hold a lot of meaning. Real train wrecks get people to stop and take a look.
Does an individual really have to be laying in the ditch - lost, naked, hungry, dirty, thirsty, without any friends or family before they will wake-up and realize they need to listen, see, straighten-up and sober-up? Is that what it takes? Yes!
Folks, you will find yourself falling silent on your own, or being silenced from authority. You are ZIPPING IT either by choice (you're done) or because you are too scared to speak and falling in line, or you are ZIPPING IT because you are being censored.
Sometimes it is in your best interest that you grab the 'invisibility cloak' and throw it on 'the stiff-necked' (stubborn) because they will not listen, they are only listening to themselves talk. Those who are full of words, do not hear very well. They do not hear because they are busy speaking and then contemplating their next words when you are speaking, so they do not hear what you are saying because they are thinking of speaking. It's maddening. They are addicted to words, like an alcoholic is addicted to alcohol. The alcoholic is thinking about their next drink. The talkaholic is thinking about their next word.
It's like the heathens do that Jesus spoke about. (Matthew 6:7) "And when you pray, do not babble on like heathens, for they think that by their many words they will be heard."
Folks, this is a time to ZIP IT and ZIP IT GOOD. Let those who are speaking find out for themselves.
