Dear Soft Moon Rose,
How does one go about reabsorbing erotic projections after a relationship has ended, particularly if Pluto synastry was involved? —R.L.

Pluto synastry is the sexiest synastry there is but such an erotic connection is often experienced as a power struggle because it catalyzes profound change. One person doubles down on their expired identity and experiences the catalyst, their person, as incompatible. This is one reason Pluto synastry has a reputation for being unsustainable. Before entering into relationships featuring these contacts, pay attention to how the person relates to transformation, alchemical creativity, and vulnerability in their own life because that is exactly how they’ll relate to erotic love. They will treat you the way they treat the darkest parts of themselves. Now that you’re on the other side of a Plutonic relationship, let’s talk about how you take your erotic projections back.
