Mars Opposite Pluto: The Last Clash
Mars in Leo is now opposing Pluto in Aquarius. We’ve been through this tension before. Back in November, it was Mars in Cancer against Pluto in Capricorn. Then again, in late November, Mars moved into Leo while Pluto shifted into Aquarius for the first time. The pressure never really went away, it just changed shape.
Now we’re back in it. Mars in Leo opposite Pluto in Aquarius, fully locked in, and we’ll be feeling the effects all week.
This is a longer-lasting transit. It doesn’t just spike for a day and vanish. It builds, plays out, escalates. If something has been brewing since November, this week can bring the next turn. Power struggles, public conflicts, leadership challenges, and moments where personal pride collides hard with collective control.
This is the final Mars–Pluto opposition for a while. It’s loud. It’s personal. And it leaves a mark.
Watch where the push comes from and watch who pushes back.
What This Means for You
Here’s a breakdown by rising sign, to give you a real sense of where the tension shows up:

Public roles, career reputation, or authority figures (10th) are clashing with private, family, or home issues (4th). You may feel squeezed between personal loyalty and professional image.
Gemini Rising
Pluto is in your 9th, Mars is in your 3rd.
Tension between broad worldviews, legal matters, or travel (9th) and local obligations, communication, or sibling issues (3rd). What you believe and what you have to say are not matching easily.
Cancer Rising
Pluto is in your 8th, Mars is in your 2nd.
This hits finances and trust. Your personal resources (2nd) are in direct conflict with shared debts, inheritances, or complicated emotional entanglements (8th). Be careful what you sign or commit to.
Leo Rising
Pluto is in your 7th, Mars is in your 1st.
This is personal. You versus them. Relationships, contracts, or enemies (7th) are pushing hard against your autonomy (1st). It’s a test of strength and self-respect.
Virgo Rising
Pluto is in your 6th, Mars is in your 12th.
Hidden conflicts and health issues (12th and 6th) are rising. You could feel like you’re fighting invisible battles at work, with your body, or in your own mind. Pay attention to what drains you.

Mental health, hidden enemies, and physical exhaustion are in play. Be careful about how you spend your energy. You’re fighting battles most people can’t see.
