On March 5, Mercury forms a sextile with Pluto, creating an atmosphere of profound mental clarity, intense communication, and deep self-inquiry. This aspect encourages us to dig beneath the surface, uncover hidden truths, and use our words as a tool for empowerment and transformation. Pluto, the planet of rebirth and shadow work, merges harmoniously with Mercury, the messenger, allowing us to explore the power of language, perception, and subconscious insights. This transit offers a moment of deep reflection one where the truth we uncover has the potential to be life changing.
How This Energy Manifests
You may experience heightened intuition, feeling drawn to explore deeper layers of thought and emotion.
Conversations may reveal important insights, leading to clarity, closure, or new understandings.
You may feel compelled to investigate, research, or analyse something that has been on your mind.
Truths that have been hidden whether internally or externally may come to the surface.
Words hold more weight than usual; what you say and how you say it has the power to transform relationships and situations.
This is an ideal time for introspective journaling, deep conversations, or working on personal or creative writing that taps into raw, authentic truth.
Guided Journal Exploration
1. What truths am I ready to uncover?
Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Imagine a door in front of you this door represents a truth you are on the verge of discovering.
What do you feel when you stand before it? Excitement? Fear? Resistance? Relief?
If you were to open this door, what truth would be waiting for you on the other side?
How does this truth challenge or empower you?
Write freely and allow your subconscious to reveal what needs to be seen. Even if the answer feels unclear, trust that your awareness is expanding in the right direction.
2. How can I use my words for empowerment and transformation?
Reflect on a time when your words whether spoken, written, or expressed creatively had a significant impact on a situation or person. What was the outcome?
How do your words currently shape your reality? Are there areas where you could be more mindful of how you speak to yourself and others?
Consider the concept of “speaking things into existence.” What transformation do you wish to create through the way you communicate?
Write a short statement of affirmation or power something you can repeat when you need to remind yourself of your ability to speak with intention, wisdom, and courage.
Meditation to Deepen Insight
If you prefer guided meditation and would like to connect even more deeply with the energy of Mercury Sextile Pluto, try this brief meditation:
1. Sit in a quiet space and take slow, steady breaths.
2. Visualize a deep well of water still, dark, and reflective. This well represents the depths of your subconscious mind.
3. Imagine yourself lowering a lantern into the well, watching as the light illuminates what has been hidden below.
4. What do you see? What thoughts, memories, or realizations emerge?
5. When you feel ready, take a deep breath and bring your awareness back to the present moment.
After meditating, write down what the lantern shone a light on and what you felt or realised. These may offer clues about the truths waiting to be uncovered.

Mercury Sextile Pluto is a reminder that knowledge is power, and the way we engage with truth has the ability to shift our perspectives and experiences. This transit is an invitation to embrace deeper self-awareness, release outdated narratives, and recognize the transformative potential of communication. Use this day to have meaningful conversations, seek clarity, or engage in shadow work through journaling. The truths you uncover may be exactly what you need to step into your next phase of growth.
