Mars opposite Pluto

This is an extremely polarizing opposition. It signals a split, but not a clean break. That’s because Mars and Pluto are the two planetary rulers of Scorpio so you can expect these energies to be both angry and retaliatory. Both sides of a dispute will feel wronged and both sides will appeal to others for understanding and support. Unfortunately neither side is interested in settling their differences so the rift will only escalate – and given the intensity of the opposition, there probably won’t be any relief until late August. Signs most affected: Aries, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius
