On November 27, , Pluto , cosmic harbinger of elimination and regeneration, officially entered Capricorn , the sign of tradition, legacy, and governance. We are able to map its effects while living under its influence. Pluto spends between twelve to thirty years in a sign due to its elliptical orbit. While we may not feel dramatic transformations on a personal level when Pluto shifts into a new sign, notable cultural upheavals often transpire, upgrading our cultural mythology in real-time.
Its ingress in corresponded with the Great Recession. Each of these crises, while apparently about Capricorn virtues of ambition and authority, had their origins in another sign. The previous sign of perpetually optimistic Sagittarius, where unchecked governmental and economic institutions had been deemed too big to fail. This period addresses the shadow of allegiance, exposing an obvious truth.
That investing our time and resources into safeguarding the status quo is rarely rewarded with prosperity or even basic security. Our fidelity only serves to advance the agendas of the so-called Plutocracy, of those already in power. On a grand scale, Pluto in Capricorn is about revamping our lifestyles. Buying property, the promise of retirement or health care, earning a living wage, or even existing free of the threat of violence, is not possible for many today, regardless of how many hours one puts in at the office.
Without these incentives, we are beginning to imagine new ways to live. The gig economy has risen to prominence in response to marketplace uncertainty. Influencers increasingly inspire more confidence than brands. That's why the planet urges us to ditch whatever's not working and work toward cultivating change in our lives to benefit ourselves and our forward momentum. This also calls into question who is in your life and influencing your choices and ideas.
Oh hi! Enter Email Address. Your official excuse to add "OOD" ahem, out of doors to your cal. Pretty gloomy right now. My question is do you think the conjunction transits are the most severe? Or the opposites? I have had Pluto conjunct all my personal planets and I am wondering if the experience is the same with square, opposition etc. Meaning is it as intense as conjunct? Maggie, no prob — happens a lot to me lately, as well!
Interesting question. On the other hand, my Moon is in Libra, and Pluto squaring my Moon was pretty brutal. Thank you, Cristina, for this rivetting article. I am grateful also for the exchange between you and Magee about her Capricorn Moon. I have a Capricorn Moon too, in my 7th house. It is the apex of my yod base Saturn and Jupiter. Pluto crossed my Moon three times! That was the angriest, most frightening time of my life. Two extremely nasty men occupied the loft above my flat for their drug-dealing activities.
They were determined to drive me out of my flat. Both hold executive roles in our communally owned Victorian conversion that contains 20 flats in its four terrace houses. At the time, I was the only occupant of my double-terrce house of 7 flats.
Terrifying nocturnal noises woke me in fright over nearly a year, every night. No help was available from the police. One policewoman , presumably bribed, co-operated with them against me. The electrician who installed my CCTV cameras to survey my loft turned off the recorder when alerted to imminent activity in my loft. He had illegally kept a copy of my CCTV software on his equipment. Eventually, I had a minor stroke that nearly caused the loss of sight in my right eye. I am 76 years old.
The COV elated lockdown began on 23 March this year. All harassment of me stopped that day, and has not resumed. But we are again on complete lockdown, having experienced somewhat lesser lockdowns between now and the first total lockdown. Perhaps it is due only to the lockdown that my enemies have backed off.
Now, Pluto is quincunx the mid-point of my natal Saturn-Mars conjunction, and has 5 degrees to go to form a sextile aspect with my Sun, which is tightly square my ASC. I apologise for taking so long to outline my Pluto situation. I just could not make a sensible brief statement of it. And I am very frightened of what might happen with the upcoming Pluto activity. Cristina, I shall be very grateful for any help you might offer me.
Sophie, thank you for sharing your experience with me. Thank you very much, your post is very helpful. I have Pluto in 9th, Libra conjunct Spica. Currently having the square aspect. All retrograde. Feels like I have lots of work to do. I also have 4th house pluto conj SN. I miss joy. Thank you for your insightful article!
For me, having the knowledge of what to expect and reading how others have dealt with these intense energies is especially helpful as I often feel that I am on the verge of losing my mind lately! My Sun is 27 degrees and 56 minutes Capricorn. For what seems like an eternity Pluto has been making its way through my 6th, Mercury, 7th and now 8th house…where my Sun resides.
So much upwelling of feelings of shame, guilt and former sadness from events in my childhood have been the bane of this long Pluto transit. I have been a student of Astrology for the past 52 years. I am grateful for that. Articles like yours and my basic astrological knowledge has really helped me sort through what would be terrifying for the unknowing mind. Thank you, again!
Thank YOU, Gene. And I concur — it feels neverending. I feel that Pluto operates at its own prehistoric, dinosaur-like pace. This was an amazing article. Thank you so much for writing this. Lindsey, thank you for your comment. Like thanks Pluto but also BYE. Any other problems are easier to survive. Marina, very rarely do Pluto transits mean literal death.
As an example, I had Pluto squaring most of my natal placements for years and nobody died, either in my family or in my circle of friends or anything. I did, however, cut off most of my family members. Lori, thank you for your comment! You wrote Pluto makes you powerless so you can take your power back. Well, I just am not getting back up.
Any speculation as to the purpose of picking such a challenged chart? Amy, thank you for your comment! Thank you so much for expressing this so beautifully. Greatly appreciated.
It started in November and my relationship crumbled like an oatmeal cookie. Everything since then has been challenge after challenge. Deep emotions are surfacing and I echo the other Sages in this thread, I want to feel my Sag self again! It feels unbearable at times, and the events that have unfold did not help. I just want to go to sleep for three years and hide. I really appreciate the writing and the space to allow us to share our stories.
It makes us feel less alone during this transit. I wish all of you much love and strength to endure these Pluto transits, they are not easy, but we are all in this together and we will come through, hopefully stronger.
Thank you for this in depth article! It really helped me gain some perspective on what it happening with my pluto. So I have felt these effects starting. I know I am about to enter a rollercoaster of a ride. Right now my saturn is squaring pluto and my pluto is squaring jupiter.
Look to planets in Taurus and Libra in your chart to see other parts of your personality that Pluto is now infusing with intensity. Your romantic life, social life, and value system are undergoing a complete transformation with Pluto transiting conjunct natal Venus. You are seeking depth of experience in your social and love relationships with Pluto transiting conjunct your natal Venus; or, this kind of experience comes into your life now. Someone may enter your life now, or circumstances arise, that completely changes your outlook, alters your value system, or consumes much of your time, thoughts, and energy.
Intimacy, passion, and intensity are what you seek or these find you! Anything less will not satisfy. Your relationships can have a compulsive quality to them, and you are unlikely to listen to reason or rationality.
Irrational fears about your lovability and love, in general, come up for inspection now. You will experience emotional extremes and, if a relationship is in a rut, you are likely to decide to break it off. Keep your eyes open; someone you meet now may teach you some important lessons about love.
Your sex drive is strong and may find an outlet in either a new or existing relationship or through a creative medium such as writing or painting. This should be an especially fruitful and rewarding period in your life, when you experience new depths of intimacy with an existing or new partner, when you learn to appreciate the important people in your life, and when your value system transforms and evolves.
This is likely an excellent period for finances as well. You might renew a commitment or bring new, deeper, and more intimate energy into a relationship under the influence of Pluto trine or sextile natal Venus. Insights into your own ability to give love, into relationships, and into others, can be enlightening. Your erotic life might get a real boost now as you delve deeper into the spirit behind sexual acts. You might find yourself strongly attracted to someone, almost to the point of obsession.
You stand to learn much from the bonds you form or cement now. One thing is for certain—relationships experienced now are bound to be unforgettable. While this transit tends to signal new or strengthened relationships, if a relationship ends during this cycle, it may be a liberating experience.
This can also be an especially creative transit. This major transit challenges you to find meaning in your life through romantic connections and partnerships. You now must uncover a new layer or level to your life — one that goes more deeply than you have heretofore experienced. Sometimes this transit is associated with divorce or separation, and sometimes new relationships begin. Other times, the attitude towards partnership undergoes a major transformation.

Relationships begun at this time may be very complicated and ultimately challenging, so be careful to think before making drastic changes in your relationships at this time.
There may be some problems with money during this transit. Poor spending decisions made to date may come to a head and you may need to face up to their reality. By the end of the transit, you should have a renewed sense of worth, although getting to that point may not be entirely pleasant.
A more compulsive or obsessive quality marks your relationships and, instead of looking for someone whose values are similar to or compatible with your own, you may attract someone whose values clash with yours. There is the possibility of attracting a member of the underworld set, someone who is already attached or someone who is looking only for sex, rather than a person capable of making both the sacrifices and the commitment you deem necessary.
Keep your standards high now, so you can come upon a love that fulfills your needs. Avoid this; aim for an attachment based on love, trust, and a genuine relationship that will deepen, not disintegrate, with time.
Love transforms you through the course of this transit. You may meet someone who challenges your previously-held view of love and relationships, or an existing relationship may become more intense. New levels of passion, intimacy, and sharing are aroused and experienced. New relationships formed now seem fateful and, at the very least, timely.
New psychological insight regarding relationships and love affairs is learned, and you may discover either a growth beyond a superficial attitude towards people and love, or a stronger intolerance for superficiality.
New attitudes towards spending are possible at this time. Cutting off some of your frivolous expenditures may be easier than ever during this transit. Pluto transits to Mars affect your drive and desire nature, strength, stamina, as well as your ability to assert yourself.

The aim should be to weed out problematic areas, ego attachments, and bad habits that have been holding you back from living in the best possible way.

You are acting on impulse more than you are listening to reason, and you should keep a close eye on this. As well, you can be very single-minded under the influence of this transit, and possibly very persistent about getting your way. You are in an ambitious and dynamic phase of your life.
You have an especially good ability to motivate others. You have little patience with bureaucratic obstacles, inefficiency, and evasiveness, and you boldly challenge these inadequacies. You feel more personal and direct and find that you waste less time with hurt feelings than before. Pluto transits square Mars.

Pluto Transits Conjunct Jupiter You are highly motivated to aspire toward your goals, aspirations, or dreams. In fact, their pursuit can be an all-consuming one at this time! There can be events that completely alter your perspective or belief systems, and these lead you to redefine your goals.
If you have been working in a direction that is compatible with your standards and your philosophical or religious views, you are likely to be effective.
This thus becomes a time when your past faith and hard work are rewarded, bolstering your confidence and helping you to make even bigger plans for your future — plans that are based on a realistic and solid foundation.
If you have been working along lines that are in conflict with your religious and philosophical views, this could be a time of tension. A change either in the direction of your life or in your values will thus be necessary to deal with your growing sense of frustration. This can lead to a religious rebirth, a time when a particular church or cult seems to express what you feel you really need from life.
Whether this religious growth is along institutional or personal lines depends on what you feel is missing from your life. Your main effort now should be in trying to live up to the best in you, rather than lowering your standards to achieve a more transient worldly success.
At this point in your life, your current situation seems too restrictive and confining. You feel hemmed in by surroundings and people that are too simplistic, narrowly focused, and petty. You will have a sense of being almost driven to pursue your course and succeed. This expansion can take many forms. You are likely to travel more now and have more exposure to other cultures, lifestyles, and ethnic groups than usual.
You find yourself uninterested in sidetracks — what is not essential.
