Pluto is the planet of cooperation, coercion, threats and terror tactics. It’s mass rallies attract hundreds of thousands of people.
It rules drastic events, division, disunity, groups, terrorist groups, crime, crime networks, cybercrime gangs, weapons of mass destruction, mass killings, assassination, kidnapping, propaganda, disinformation, radio, television, trolls, hackers, dictators and the United Nations,
Mars conjunction Pluto forecasts events that merge war, army, navy, law enforcement officers – police and national guard – industrial worker, doctors, fires, vice, gambling, intoxicants, banditry, accidents and strife with groups, cooperation, the splitting into opposing factions and the exercise of dictatorial powers.
Mass shootings, gruesome crimes and wild fires (in the global south) are very likely.
October 9, 2025: Donald Trump announces that Israel and Hamas have agreed on the first phase of a 20-point peace plan that aims to end the war in Gaza with the release of Israeli captives and Palestinian prisoners.
In January 2026 the peace plan is broadly holding, despite sporadic clashes between the Israel Defense Forces and Gaza militants. However, both sides are dragging their feet on moving on to the next crucial phase of the ceasefire. Palestinians in the territory are left to deal with the muck and deadly cold of winter. Meaningful progress seems unlikely soon.
The Russia-Ukraine war goes on with Russia firing drones and missiles. At the same time America mediates attempting to bring about a cease fire but whether the warring parties can have a successful pow wow and pass the peace pipe remains to be seen.
The war started four years ago on February 24, 2022 when Russia invaded Ukraine with Mars conjunction Pluto in the sky.
The Thailand-Cambodia conflict is a long-running, unresolved border dispute over competing claims to ancient temples and their surrounding land that became violent and escalated sharply in July 2025. Both sides agreed to a ceasefire on July 28 but it proved short-lived with minor skirmishes in November escalating into major clashes in early December 2025.
December 27, 2025: Thailand and Cambodia agree to halt weeks of fierce border clashes, the worst fighting in years that included fighter jets sorties, exchange of rocket fire and artillery barrages.
December 17, 2025: Donald Trump orders a blockade (Pluto) of all ‘sanctioned oil tankers’ into Venezuela, ramping up pressure on the country’s authoritarian leader Nicolás Maduro (Pluto). Trump alleged Venezuela was using oil to fund drug trafficking and other crimes (Pluto) and vowed to escalate the military buildup (Mars).
December 22, 2025: Donald Trump names Jeff Landry as special envoy to Greenland the Danish autonomous territory he wants and angers Denmark.
Greenland, home to about 57,000 people, has had extensive self-government since 1979, though defence and foreign policy remain in Danish hands. While most Greenlanders favour eventual independence from Denmark, opinion polls show overwhelming opposition to becoming part of the US.
In December 2025, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un (Pluto) announced a significant expansion of his country’s missile and artillery production indicating a move towards increased output of both nuclear and conventional weapons.
Increased tensions over Taiwan and a major cyber-attack can’t be discounted.
