Mars-Pluto transits


Everyone has at least a few of these in their lives. Some people have this natally. Those who have a Mars-Pluto in their natal chart are often used to the energies and may be able to deal with the transit better than someone who does not. 
Mars is the planet of aggression/assertion, physical energy, anger and hostility, warfare, sexuality, what we are attracted to, and how we express our anger. Pluto represents the underworld, death and rebirth, transformation, darkness and the light, inheritances, power struggles, corruption, healing, etc etc. 

This isn’t always a pleasant transit. However, the trine and sextile are a little easier to deal with, giving the individual a staying power. They have great control over their desires and drive during this period. Anger is kept under control. They know their objectives and overcome them. There is a great need to finish what is started… a good time to finish projects. A good time to self-heal and heal others. Someone with a trine or sextile could finish a daunting a project that has been going on for some time ( for work or a creative project ). Projects are sought to the end. Another person could begin training for a marathon or an Iron Man, which takes great courage and the tenacity and staying power. Those are just a few examples. 
The harsher transits of the conjunction, opposition or square are harder to deal with. Someone with the harsher aspects can still gain some of the benefits of Mars-Pluto, such as the staying power to finish creative projects, or begin training for a marathon or any other strenuous physical athletic event. There is also a change of having a good hold of desires and anger, but when the person does get angry, it’s likely to explode like a volcano. When negative energies are overcome, the person can help heal others, or heal themselves. This can manifest in many ways… by just accepting the past, being a nurse or counselor, helping a friend, etc etc. Mars-Pluto transits… a person learns to be resilient. 
When I had a Mars-Pluto transit in late 2009 through Fall 2011, it wasn’t the easiest time for me. My Mars falls into the 1st house natally and Pluto falls into the 8th house natally. I had Mars-Pluto square transit. During that time, I had a relapse of anorexia nervosa and then decided it was all bullshit and decided to heal once again. I also began running, but not training for a marathon. I wanted to live and be healthy, and running was part of my being healthy part, which included some weight gain. I also lost my virginity. When I lost my virginity, it was like a murder scene and I lost a lot of blood both times, soaking up bath towels. ( Sorry if that was too much info. People lose blood during virginity, but I KNOW mine was a lot of blood and was not normal ). 
Sometimes when someone has a harsh transit of Mars and Pluto, there anger is extreme and out of control. They may have issues with violence and hostility. They can be the person DOING the violence OR are the VICTIM of violence. 
Some people get into accidents, or are raped, or attacked during these transits, but this is RARE. Usually the ones who are raped or attacked have some negative NATAL Mars-Pluto/Uranus aspects in their charts, or have something else going on in their progressed and/or solar return charts as well. Sometimes the transits are activators of something negative in the natal chart. 
In a woman’s chart, this could indicate a rape or an attacker, but it could also represent difficulties in the relationship with the men in her life, mostly the man she’s married or in a relationship with. ( Mars= Men ). However, a woman can still experience Mars-Pluto in her own personality and will, and can experience the healing, determination and vigor that is associated with the transits as well. 
For both men and women there may be an increased sex drive during this time. Sex is not just sex and can be more meaningful and powerful. For more corrupted people, this could be an activator for human/sex trafficking and prostitution ( Mars= Sex Pluto= Corruption, the dark ). 
Someone i know has Mars in Sagittarius square Pluto in Virgo ( natally ). She was raped by her own step father and became pregnant, all while being only 13 years old. Abortion and shame at church ( Sagittarius ) soon followed. Her step father was a very religious man. To this day it still haunts her. Another person I know has the NATAL Mars square Uranus and has been raped multiple times by multiple unstable men. 
That being said, having the natal aspects do not mean you will automatically get raped or attacked, but transits, solar return placements, and/or progressions can be an “activator” for shit to happen. For most women who have Mars-Pluto transit, anything can happen, but it doesn’t mean that she has to live her life in fear. ( Do not want to give anyone the idea ). Everyone;s experience is different and some have more trauma than others. 
To Sum It UP: Mars-Pluto ( soft and hard ) transits can bring resilience, a good grip on desires and sex drive, and a leveled anger. Passion is high and a sex drive may be higher than normal, but does not indicate cheating necessarily. Some may have promiscuous tendencies, but again this transit is an activator for that. Other people experience a high level of commitment. 
A good time to complete projects. The person sticks it through to the end. 
Some things are taken more seriously, such as relationships, physical activity, creative projects, spirituality, and/or work. 
Great insight during this time, or paranoia. 
There could be accidents, attacks, or rapes, but again, not  the case for many many people.
