Transit Eros Opposition Natal Pluto
Passion confronts power
Eros opposite Pluto turns up the voltage where longing meets control. Desire becomes a truth-teller, flushing out what’s been hidden—your hunger, your defenses, the stories you carry about power and intimacy. It asks for courage: to name what you want, to meet another’s intensity without abandoning yourself.

This transit stirs the primal heart. Desire doesn’t knock politely; it surges, insisting on honesty. You may feel pulled toward intensity—people, fantasies, choices that make you feel vividly alive. Alongside the pull comes a counterforce: the urge to manage, dominate, or withdraw so you won’t be overtaken. Old stories around shame, worthiness, and who holds the power in love can surface like ink in water. The opposition is a mirror; what is irresistible may also reflect something disowned in yourself.
Working with this energy means choosing presence over control. When you slow the pace, name what you feel, and stay loyal to consent—your own and others’—the heat becomes a forge rather than a battlefield. Desire stops being a verdict and becomes information: what you want illuminates what you value, what you fear, and where you long to transform. Power clarifies into stewardship: influence used in service of truth rather than to secure a win. The deepest shift is from trying to possess the source of intensity to embodying it with integrity.
Life Areas & Expression
Relationships & Connection
Attractions intensify, and with them the stakes of honesty. Boundaries and consent want renegotiation; jealousy or secrecy may surface, yet vulnerability and clear agreements can turn the heat into trust.
Work & Purpose
Ambition wakes with a pulse—focused, unwilling to pretend. Power dynamics with bosses or teams get obvious, offering a chance to claim influence ethically and align effort with a purpose that actually matters.
Creativity & Expression
Raw, taboo, or mythic material begs to be shaped. If you give the feeling a form—music, movement, words—the obsession becomes a portal instead of a loop.

Growth here is sovereignty: feeling the full voltage of desire while keeping a hand on the dimmer switch. You don’t have to choose between surrender and control; you can choose contact—breath, pacing, language that says what is true without making demands it cannot keep.
Let power be devotional, not dominion. Ask what the intensity is asking you to become, and allow that becoming to be mutual, ethical, and kind; when you honor consent and purpose, desire stops chasing and starts guiding.
Desire tells the truth; I answer with presence, consent, and care.
