Transit of Dec. 31, 2022: Venus in Capricorn conjunct Pluto in Capricorn

Venus conjunct Pluto transit dramatically increases your need for love and affection. You want to experience companionship at a deeper, more intense level. This can lead to problems if you are single, but this transit can also throw a spanner in the works of a healthy relationship if you play your cards the wrong way.

You will be wielding greater power to attract friends and lovers. You can have a magnetic attractiveness that pulls people in at the subconscious level. Problems will arise if you consciously misuse your increased pulling power. In this case, there will be a tendency to manipulate others by guilt-tripping or other subversive tactics.

Other behaviors to beware of, not just in you but in others, are possessiveness and jealousy. Infatuation is fine and you may fall deeply in love at this time. But stalking and spying are not acceptable, and if married then an affair at this time would have the most serious repercussions. There may also be a tendency to fall for negative or dangerous types of people like criminals and heavy drug users.

If in a healthy and happy relationship, then this transit can lead to intense sexual experiences if the other half is keen. This may include a degree of bondage or pain. If single, instant attraction could lead to a profound and karmic relationship. In both cases, openly giving love and affection without catches is the key to satisfaction.
