I spend a great deal of time watching people. I find it interesting to observe their behaviors because it affords me the ability to better understand what makes people tick. In turn, I get to figure myself out and better grasp how magical things work.
That people-watching habit of mine has come in handy over the years. Now is one such time, as I've come to notice that as a general rule, people are having a great deal of trouble, emotionally and otherwise. Things are happening that are making folks very unhappy, with no concrete or happy end in sight. I've found myself giving the advice "endure this, as it'll pass" time and time again over the past few weeks.

And that's the long and short of it: "This too shall pass". Pluto's movements have been wreaking havoc in people's lives. We've seen it before, with Mercury's retrogrades causing communication problems or Mars causing folks to fight, but for some reason Pluto is so much worse....so much stronger. Observing this and feeling the strain has caused me to come to some interesting realizations, to be sure.
This post is partly to share those realizations, partly to offer comfort, and also to offer advice and services to those in need.
Pluto is something like Saturn's shadow, astrologically speaking. It speaks of the deep mind, of the Jungian Shadow, of constraint and barriers, and perhaps more importantly of our breaking points. Where Saturn shows us how far we can go before we are pained, Pluto illustrates where our "Rock Bottom" is. It shows us that we are human, confronts us with our mortality, and threatens to do us and everyone else around us in. It contributes to the breaking down of connections with others with a sort of fiery, hellish glee, and it ensures that we feel alone. Its spirits take from you until you feel like there's nothing left, and if you let its essence do so, it will consume you. Only the strong and endurant survive and get forged anew. Those that persist find themselves with a better grasp of their faculties, having been hardened, toughened, and sharpened by the brush with "the Void".
With that in mind, the positive end is that this retrograde is coming to a close on 9/22. After that, give it a week or so and things should normalize.
For those of you who are magically inclined and thus skilled enough to do the work on your own, I suggest that you work to reclaim what was lost and focus on reaping the rewards due on account of having gotten through this. You can use the following sigil to do so:

For those of you who lack the ability to do magic on your own or wish to complement your own work with the assistance of an accomplished sorcerer, I am offering a bit of magic. I call it the "Mark of the Bold", and it is a bit of spellwork that I have created as a result of my years of practice and study.
The Mark is a rite that embeds energy and intention into your sphere, your energy field, and your very being. Its not unlike a spiritual tattoo, and its purpose is to set you apart from the rest. Its partially a glamour and partially a blessing, and the goal and intention thereof is to effectively make you special. The purpose is to make you look and act the part of one who is successful and able to walk his or her own path in as victorius and triumphant a manner as possible.
I will be offering this at the price of 150$ until the 27th of September. After that date, it will be available as a one-off working at a much higher cost. I would suggest jumping on this opportunity if this sounds like something you can use. You can purchase the working below.
Best of luck and warm regards,
