One word that describes this aspect is ‘propaganda.’ Certainly we will see this in the news but everything trickles down to our own lives as well. Astrology works in the collective, and it works with is as individuals as well.

Propaganda on a personal level means there may be others trying to convince you of their viewpoint, or it may be the other way around and you might try to convince someone else of something. Obviously, this aspect can cause arguments and disagreements if you choose to go there. Self control is the key dealing with others, as well as controlling your own thoughts.

Mercury-Pluto aspects lean toward obsessions, and uncovering information not previously known. Pluto wants depth and Mercury tends to dig in deeply for information with this aspect. This can also bring up deep seated memories from the past that are not especially pleasant and it may be hard to let go until the aspect passes.

If you push others, expect pushback. This aspect is also prone toward accidents so watch your driving.

This aspect will have a major impact on anyone with planets at 28-29 degrees of Cancer, Capricorn, Libra or Aries.
