Aspects
Mercury Opposition Pluto
You tend to meet your own mental power through other people: you draw intense, controlling, or probing minds, get into debates over truth and control, or find your own suspicion mirrored back at you. Balanced, it makes you a formidable, honest, depth-seeking thinker. The work is owning your own drive to control the narrative instead of fighting it in others, and arguing to find truth rather than to win. At your best you turn the clash of minds into shared, transformative understanding.
Lean in — Argue to find the truth, not to win or control the story.
Watch for — Fight in others the mental control that is really your own.
