Is there something you’ve been turning a blind eye to? Something that you just haven’t wanted to look at or deal with? Whatever the reason– lack of time, concern that you don’t have the internal resources to handle it, or something else–is there some inevitable that you just keep on putting off?

If so, today may very well be a good day to attempt a conquest. Whether it be addressing the situation head-on or beginning to chip away at it piece by piece, the energy of the day can provide you with powerful resources that you can constructively use to face your fears and begin to tackle the problem.

What’s happening in the sky to support this? Today, Pluto is aligned with both Mercury, the planet of communication, and Mars, the planet of action and will. Plus the Moon is in transformative Scorpio, the sign Pluto rules, most of the day.

Remember, Pluto and Scorpio are not big fans of stagnancy. With so much of their transformational energy being anchored today, if you don’t stir the pot (even ever so slightly), there’s a chance that someone else will do it for you.
