Node-o-rama

I'm afraid you're a couple of years earlier than me, but I see you've got it coming up very soon.  Feel anything yet? What can I expect?

Hello
My good friend is experiencing:

t.Neptune conjunct his Sun
t.Uranus opposing his Pluto
t.Pluto conjunct his Saturn

Lets say he is doing some restructuring inside and out and he is feeling a little stunned and has a bad cold right now... I think too much is going on inside him right now that he doesn't know what to do or how to identify how he is feeling.

we will see how it unravels for him...

WaterLily:

I’m simultaneously undergoing transiting Pluto trine natal Uranus – So I’m getting a double-whammy. I have to admit it’s scary - these two will probably bring some radical (but hopefully creative) transformations into my life. From what I’ve read this combo of planets will involve a breaking down of something, especially restrictions.

Given it’s my 6th/12, I’m hoping it’s not health-related. Saturn is also transiting my Sun. In that respect this combo has me worried.

Interestingly, I have the same 6th/12th axis.  The difference is my pluto is in the 6th.

I can give you a little hint about that energy.....

My pluto is in the 6th and I know that if you dig out the old time fire and brimstone astrology books you will see some astrologers make a case for health isssue.  I have not been that case.  What did happen was when I was growing up, my mother who was a single mom didn't  have much interest or time in me being sick. So, she pretty much set the tone: "you're not sick."  Even when, I probably was... if you know what I mean.   So, from the earliest of times there was 'power' issues over illness.  In this case, I was indoctrinated not to give power TO sickness.  As much as a bitch that she was and as much as it was done for reasons that may have not always been in my best interest, I will say this...I'm grateful that I was not raised to give power over to illness.  There, Universe, I've thanked my mother. (sort of)..
Anyway, I think because of that particular background I think it has played a part in this uranus opposition.  I think and I really put the emphasis on 'think'... that my background and personality have told uranus..."don't dick around with health, I'm not playing."    Just a thought.

but, there has been a 12-6th influence.  Definitely.

I was not paying attention to the transits so I wasn't monitoring but now looking back I see that I had the exact aspect in November, I'm in now and I'll have it exact again later in November of this year.
And here is how it seems to be coming up.
Charity!
This November, I started a charity drive on one of my other web communities.  (how very Uranus).  I organized and produced a giving tree for moms who were in need.  I was unbelievable compelled to post this message....
"ARe there any moms here who are afraid they won't have any gifts for their children this christmas and need help?"
This thought rolled around in my head for about a week. And I was hesitant to post it because I feared (12th) that it might be a huge wave that I wouldn't be able to handle.   But i couldn't shake it. I knew I had to do it.  And then, I remember it well, it was the day before thanksgiving and I posted it.
And that was it. It was like turning the day they turned on the water at Hoover Dam.   I personally donated not a huge amount of money, but what I did was organize all the other moms who wanted to help and funnel them to the right moms and more needy moms came on board and I had to constantly monitor the forum and find more helper moms for the new needy moms.. and to make a very long story short... it turned into 35 needy moms and about 200  helper moms.
and what went nuts? ---- MY SCHEDULE!!
How 6th house Pluto in Virgo!
It became like a second job.  I was working on my own job, and during my job I would check the forum constantly and when I got home I would have to go online and stay with my charity thread and I would literally be up until 1am on many days.  IT WAS LIKE MY SCHEDULE WAS A STEAMING LOCOMOTIVE and I had no control of it. I just had to ride it.  But I got another mom to help me... (she organized the donated clothes and toys) I just organized the money (again, how pluto).
And when it was all said and done each needy mom got about $150 US dollars in gift certificates and about 3 boxes each of gently used toys and clothes. 

What took the hit?  My husband and son.  But I put a limit on it and it slowly wrapped up but really it was one month from beginning to end and with two weeks of intense. 

Now mind you, I wasn't looking at transits. And my husband said, "What on Earth made you start this thing?"
I said, "I don't know, I was compelled. I couldn't stop myself."

Now I know. Uranus in Pisces in the 12th house. Oppose Pluto in Virgo in the 6th.

Internet forum (uranus), charity ( pisces), fear of the unknown aka 'how will I do it?" 12th house..... compelled (pluto), productive and practical (virgo) and a hideous schedule (6th) house.

So, then cut to this week.  I once again, felt compelled to pull some clothes together for another internet mommy who's house caught on fire and she lost everythign. The problem is she has a daughter and I have a son so I didn't have the right clothes. I called my friend last week asked her to get some of her daughter's clothes together. I drove to her work early in the morning, got the clothes, brought them home, ironed them boxed them and shipped them.
Again, why?
Well, that's when I said, "What the F is going on with my chart?" 
And I saw the uranus oppose pluto...  and bingo...
I saw the pattern. 

In the meantime...and it is worth noting... I am also working on other projects that will hopefully bring in money.  And I probably should use every extra moment on them. But I just can't. I have to split the time. 
I feel like this is the uranus/pluto tug...

I don't know if this is the only way it is going to play out this  year...... And for all intents and purposes I'm under it for the whole year..
I'm  hoping my schedule will improve and my other projects will get off the ground and I will temper some of the charitylike stuff..but I do think it plays a part....

Okay, this way too long of a posting.  but you get the idea....

Wow, Trabot, thanks for posting that.  It is both helpful and very, very inspirational.  I hope I can put the opposition to such good use. 

From an outsider's perspective, I have to say "yes, you ARE using this energy the right way".  You are racking up some damn fine karma there.

Hey guys, thanks so much for this thread. And I am also in the age bracket to have transiting Uranus opp Pluto in 3rd house Virgo, and transiting Pluto not only conjuncting my natal 7th house saturn-moon conjunct, but trining my natal 3rd house Uranus(leo). What can I say. My life is interesting. I am finding that the pluto energy leads me to question very deeply my core responses and figure them out, even though I feel compulsions, especially in relationships, that I struggle to understand. In the last year I have changed jobs, changed towns, and will be moving house again at the end of this month. And my relationship of 2 years has changed shape into something else entirely. I kind of feel in the grip of big things, and am going with it without too much resistance, just trying to figure out the layers beneath the layers until I find the essential. There is sometimes an overwhelming feeling of sadness which I think is triggered by the Pluto transiting the saturnmoon thing (I was widowed at 29 - no surprise considering the chart) and activating left over unresolved issues around relationships and loss, togetherness and aloneness, and all of those complex ambiguities. The more I am getting into this transit, the more I feel able to cope with it. I think Pluto has a hugely healing influence in that way, especially if we let it do its work wothout trying to resist where it takes us. As for the Uranus opp Pluto - I don't know. I guess the changes in job/work/town is part of that, and there have been some very hectic ugly things (friends and me in accident, fallouts, daughter had abortion, son is having tough times too), but amazingly the aftermath of each episode has brought about amazing healing and insight. Interesting..... and I guess its not going to be over for a while??

I know this is an old thread, but it's exactly what I was looking for.  Tracy, it seems that we have had some similar transits... just several years apart. 

Uranus (5th house) is about to be exactly opposite my Pluto (11th house), with the added complication of Saturn conjunct Pluto.  To make things even more interesting, Pluto is in 29th degree of Virgo in my natal chart ... it makes me curious if there is anything "karmic" about either or both of these transits.  Not to mention they are pretty stressful aspects anyway!  I already feel (and have felt for the majority of the last year) that I am being pulled in opposite directions that must be the results of these two not-so-compatible planets.  I want freedom, spontaneity, adventure and excitement, but I literally feel like I am cemented to the ground.  All I can do is go with it and that is what I'm trying to do.  It's just really hard to shake this restlessness that keeps telling me to get up and go.  I don't even have any clear goals of things I want to do, and if I do they change day to day.  Lots of confusion and lack of focus is probably the best way to put it.  Very similar to my other post about the Saturn transit, but something tells me the two are linked and meant to be interpreted together. 

There are some other things going on, like Jupiter trine my natal Sun, that could be the root of my lack of motivation and general laziness.  Actually, I probably have Jupiter to thank for making the Saturn and Uranus transits a little easier to accept.  It's kinda nice to have some easy Jupiter transits to take the edge off of Saturn.  I love the rock tumbler analogy above.  I wish I could sum up the fluctuations I'm experiencing in such a descriptive way.  Hopefully, by the end of this transit I will! 

I think it is easier for me to feel the Uranus energy and pinpoint the areas of my life it is affecting, but Saturn is the one that throws me.  It could be my Cancer sun or the fact that Cap/Cancer is intercepted in my chart that make Saturn transits confusing for me. 

I'm in the same boat you guys are!  Except I have the added craziness of Pluto at 1Libra57 being conjunct my IC at 27 Virgo.  So Uranus has been over my MC all this time while Saturn has been going back and forth over my Pluto and IC! 

Oh!  Add progressed Mars on my MC and now transiting Jupiter and I'm going stir crazy.  Being born with Mars in Pisces, I really can't wait for Mars to progress into Aries finally.  Maybe I'll get some balls, throw away my feelings of guilt and attachment to my old life, pick up a backpack, and just set out for a life of adventure!

I can relate, Gracehoper; my Mars in Cancer finally ingresses into Leo next year...Can't wait to see how it feels, particularly as I credit progressed ascendants and mine is in Mars-ruled Scorpio...

I think I am in one part of me being swept away by Uranus.
I want to get a new job, new place, new partner, I want to travel... new new new...Experiment with my life and then figure out what I really want?

What used to be about hard work and stability (Saturn Pluto) for the last 20yrs is being challenged by me saying throw caution to the wind and try something new lol...

I was even briefly thinking about packing my back pack and jump on a train...
This is truely a strange new world I am seeing...lol

Uranus is still rocking my Pluto in opposition from the 10th house to my natal Pluto's placement on the IC trine Venus.   

ALSO, Neptune is squaring my Venus in Taurus on Algol Star.

ALSO, transiting Pluto and progressed Moon are conjunct in Capricorn in the House of Illness, trining Moon in Virgo, sextiling Mars in Pisces.

It's been a time of intense health gain!  My home situation is rocky, but Mars in Pisces gives me the skills to navigate pretty much any social situation unless it's just pure chaos.  I'm optimistic even though I believe the world is spiraling down into total melt-down.  Why?  THIS IS WHY I HAVE INCARNATED AT THIS TIME!  Best tickets in the Multiverse!
