"X marks the spot" and that X is being formed by the Moon and Chiron opposing each other on one axis and Pluto and the Sun opposing each other. The Moon in Virgo wants to purify through its earthly, consistent analytical approach towards health, daily routines, and moving towards perfection. At the other end of the see saw is Chiron in Pisces who seeks to heal his wounds through the lens of mysticism, spiritual connections, and compassion.   The Moon and Chiron have the same agenda, greater wholeness and healing, however Virgo will approach healing through the physical, material and tangible behaviors and Pisces will approach healing through the non-physical connections with spirit via dreams, prayer, or meditation. Individually, we can aim to integrate our physical and spiritual behaviors. The Pluto/Sun opposition presents a balancing of the individual self focused on feelings and nurturing in Cancer and Pluto who seeks to transform our responsibilities and accepted truths. The Planet of Power and Soul, Pluto is wrestling with our individual egos and the light that shines out, requesting it look at the shadows or subconscious aspects of the soul and integrate our darkness with the light. Pluto wants to stir the outward facing, solar ego, to look at and rebuild our structures of responsibility and be willing to go deeper into the unconscious to bring greater balance. Of particular interest is that both of these opposing planets are in the elements of water and earth. Water and Earth resemble more yin, internal feminine energy making this conflict affect us a little more on the reflective, subtleties.

Opposition from our initial understanding references the opponent or the one you are in conflict with who does not see eye to eye with you. When we approach opposition from a metaphysical perspective, we learn that the adversity has commonality. For in the mere fact that they stand in direct polarity with each other there is a bridge of connection, an interplay. Seek to bring your ego and unconscious together by embracing both the physical you and the deep aspects of your soul. Watch for signs and symbols, messages from spirit as you move about your world to allow greater wholeness of all that is you.
