When Mars is transiting into sextile to Pluto in chart what kinds of expectations can one have?
As far as I have been able to tell most astrologers believe that retrograde motion has a negative effect. I have not seen this to be true, especially if the other planet is in direct motion. Pluto and Mars are both sexual planets and this should boost your sexual energy in a big way. Not as big as a trine but still very noticeable. If Mars happens to go into retrograde then you can expect the effect to be prolonged. Pluto rules beginnings and endings to you may also use this energy to begin something you may have been putting off. Or end something that needs to end. At this time you will feel a physical peak as well. You can expect that your energy level will be higher than normal, hence the sexual energy. The on and off feeling will depend on how close the planets are. If they separate far enough then you will feel it go on and off. But if they stay within 3 degrees then you won’t. However the closer to exact the aspect is the more energy you will feel.
