In these texts, A is the person whose Mars is read and B the person whose Pluto receives it.
Pluto is linked to the expression of deep resources and to sides that are hard to acknowledge. The other aspects and the awareness of both play a part in the intensity of the contact.
Facilitating contact
The combination strengthens action. A finds a way to express their strength and inner power. B receives an extra boost of energy from A. The encounter can help them recognize abilities they hadn’t put into play before.
Obstructing contact
In the system, this contact is associated with a risk of aggressive expressions, open or covert. It is a dynamic that calls for attention, without blaming the planet for anyone’s behavior.
In disagreements, it is wise to stop the escalation and look for calm moments to express discomfort, provided it is safe to do so. When there is aggression, an agreement about how to talk is not enough on its own: the boundaries and the protection of the person affected need attention.
Awareness of what is happening aims to keep pain and confrontation from gaining ground in the bond. It does not require staying in a harmful situation.
Aspects of Mars
Mars represents physical energy, action and courage. It also relates to anger that is expressed in the moment or builds up until it comes out at another time. Its contacts show how the two partners’ impulses to act meet.
