Pluto in the horoscope is responsible for. Pluto in the natal chart. Negative Traits of Pluto
The planet Pluto is naturally associated with the sign of Scorpio and the eighth house. Both the planet and the sign and the house are related to such issues as birth, sex, death, energy and transformation. The main theme of Pluto - energy, and how to deal with it - exists both at the individual level and for all of humanity. A Plutonian is someone who has a very strong Pluto in the chart, that is, Pluto has aspects to the Sun, or Meridian, or several important planets are in Scorpio, or the eighth house is strong.
The themes given by such a position are guilt, resentment, the desire to rule, malice or revenge. Since no one seeks revenge without being deeply hurt, there is often a terrible story associated with Pluto's position in the natal chart. Although some people are more deeply influenced by Pluto than others, we all show some Pluto traits in the areas of life that it affects.
Overview of Pluto Positions
Much of what will be discussed pertains to a person with a difficult Pluto position. If your Pluto is well aspected (has only and ), or if your Pluto is not particularly strong, this material may not apply to you in any meaningful way. At the same time, you may find that even the weakest position (such as Scorpio on the cusp and no planets in this house) is associated with some of your difficulties. In this case, reading the text will give you some understanding, although some of the most tense moments of this situation will not apply to you.
Whether your Pluto is strong or weak, some of the remarks may hurt you, but facing the truth is the beginning of change. Once is not enough, but we will continue to know this, and the truth will hurt our eyes, until the games we play are brought to light often enough to interfere with us - and we will be forced to abandon them. Recognizing them in front of others speeds up the process.
We are often haunted by the affairs of the house or planets associated with the position of Pluto in the natal chart. And to what we cannot get rid of, we become tightly attached. The same negative pattern can recur in our lives over and over again, and with each repetition we become more fixated on it. If someone hurt us or betrayed us, we are already waiting for treason, we choose people who will betray us, and then with our expectations we achieve treason. Even a decent person who is constantly suspected will be forced to say, “You don't trust me? If that's all you can think of me, then that's what I'll do." This is how we create self-fulfilling prophecies.
One of the options for the emergence of such an obsession is a tendency to be involved in a power struggle in matters related to the house occupied, or it. Such a fanatical desire to win can paradoxically lead to bitter failure. Often it all starts with a power struggle with parents (or other authorities) in childhood - with those who attached great importance to the issues of the house in which Pluto is located, and tried to impose their will on the child here. If the child followed the directions, the parents won. In order not to succumb to the will of the parents and win the battle, a person had to lose everything connected with the house where Pluto is located. Failure was wrongly viewed as a moral victory. This process allowed me to call the house where Pluto is located, "the house of misfortune out of spite."
In the end, the parents can teach the child that he or she will never achieve anything in the affairs of this house - and the child takes revenge on his parents in a peculiar way, undergoing failure after failure. Some people seem to freeze this area of their lives, controlling needs and feelings so tightly that even friends cannot guess how important this area was once. There may be another attitude: “I don’t need this at all” - and a sense of moral superiority over those who succeed.
Another picture arises if a person accepts as true the belief of parents that the affairs of the house where Pluto is located, or its aspects, will help transform and manage life, if he or she succeeds in these matters. As a result, an exaggerated amount of energy is directed into this area of life. Because of the energy invested in the area of life ruled by Pluto, and as a result of the power struggle that takes place where a person eventually begins to control what he himself most wants to control. He is powerless to succeed, but he cannot get rid of it until he transforms himself. Paradoxically, when the area of Pluto is healed and loses its power over you, it becomes an area where you can apply a significant amount of creative energy.
A person in a difficult position can be a Scorpio in the relevant area of life, injecting poison into others - usually covertly, from behind a corner. I call this syndrome the “vengeful victim,” referring to the person who has been wronged and who feels vindicated by returning that wrong to others. A person with the Moon in Scorpio, for example, may feel very hurt by his mother, and as a result he is relieved to pour out his anger on any woman who has turned up. Not all of us, of course, are vengeful victims, but many of us like to play the role of a victim at times, and if there are difficulties in areas of your life that are under the influence of Pluto, then maybe this model works for you to some extent.
There may be a deep, dark secret in the Pluto area of your life that leaves you feeling like you are incapable of being open with others. Readers may be relieved to know that we won't be discussing the sexual aspects of various positions. So often, a deep, dark secret is sexual. But in reality it has nothing to do with sex. When sexual difficulty or sexual obsession arises, energy is often the real cause. Critical issues such as betrayal, separation, guilt and resentment can be manifestations of the same energy as sexuality.
How to use interpretations
In the following interpretations, it is considered in various, and in some signs. Interpretations are arranged in the order of houses, similar provisions are grouped together. For example, Pluto in the third house is grouped with aspects between Pluto and Mercury, as well as with Mercury in Scorpio, since they all have similar manifestations. None of the aspects is similar to the other, but there are similarities that can help the astrologer find similar topics. For example, in each combination, the concerns of Mercury are combined with those of Pluto, which gives some commonality in themes. If one of the combinations is markedly different from the others or has important individual features, it will be considered separately. Since I do not adhere to the traditional leadership of Venus in Taurus and Mercury in Virgo, these points are omitted.The strength of grouped combinations is not the same. An example order is:
- Pluto is in hard aspect to the planet.
- Pluto in the house
- Planet in Scorpio.
- Scorpio planets in the house.
- Scorpio on the house cusp.
- Pluto is in a sign.
Apart from the position of Pluto in the first house, the placement of individual interpretations corresponds to their approximate strength, as I estimated it, and it may vary at times. mainly strained ( , ) are considered. Sometimes even a Pluto trine can give you some of the tendencies described. - the strongest of all, and the influence can be practically neglected. Not given, but planets and signs in the eighth may have a similar effect.
Interpretations of Pluto positions
Pluto in the first house
This is a difficult position, especially when Pluto is close to or aspecting the Ascendant. The struggle of energies can be manifested in their physical appearance. These people manage to look completely different, stand out from the general environment - for example, they wear black leather jackets, sexually provocative clothes, have weight problems or a gloomy, dejected look. You can almost hear them say to their parents, "You can't change how I look." Since the first house is one of the houses of health, this case is especially important for working on guilt, as over the years this energy can turn into serious physical problems.
Plutonians are able to turn others away from themselves, as they can walk around with a defiant air, radiating indignation. They can strictly control their outward expression, not trusting the world with any important information and looking at everything invariably critically. Being angry or offended, they retire into solitude. In relationships, they can do too much for others, or they can bind others to themselves in a symbiosis-like bond. If this fails, the result is isolation. The reason for this lack of trust may be past betrayal, renunciation, someone's death, or other difficult family conditions (the first house speaks of defense mechanisms that we developed as a result of family environment and other events in childhood).
This is a powerful position if used constructively, as such people can have a huge impact on their environment. If they master the use of energy, their impact on others will be very great. This is one of the signs of a healer or psychotherapist, as such people can look straight to the root of the problem and give other people the ability to heal themselves. They may also be mediums consciously or not.
Pluto in the second house
(Planets of Scorpio in the second house, Scorpio in the second house)
The struggle of power can focus on money, which is without any doubt an important topic for parents. When a parent gave something to a child, they had a lot of control over the child, so the “giving” was accompanied by resentment: a rope was tied to the handout, keeping the child close to addiction. As a result, these Plutonians make no distinction between money and control, and can either have a lot of money or none at all.
Some people seem to fail miserably and have chronic financial difficulties. This can happen if the parents predicted to the child that he would never achieve anything in the field of finance. There may be a strong resentment towards people who have money (one of the clients calls rich people "philistines"). Some people rebel against any way to make money, confusing leadership with control in the process. The resentment associated with money and control that they experience throughout their lives can poison any attempt to become financially solvent.
Poverty itself can become a controlling mechanism in relationships. This means that such people can form symbiotic bonds with those who "help" them, forming a dependency in order to control or not be rejected. Words about lack of money finish any phrase they have, this is their trump card (“I can’t do what you want because I don’t have money”). Sexuality may also play a role, but then both sides become indignant at the need to pay in this way. Instead of becoming dependent on a particular person, a second house Plutonian may resort to government assistance, possibly having the pleasure of “taking back from the state” behind it. Resentment towards those with money can also lead less ethical individuals in that position to "borrow" money or goods from an employer who is seen as corrupt and exploitative.
The other side of the coin can be seen in individuals who earn a decent amount of money, but do so for the sake of establishing control in relationships or over the environment. These Plutonians are "helpers" associated with people who cannot do without their financial help. This would seem to put the second house Plutonian in a better position in relationships (because whoever pays calls the music) and also creates the feeling that he cannot be rejected because others need him so. But in the end, they become disgusted with making money for these purposes, as a result of which neither the relationship nor the work is successful. Resentment poisons all their efforts, and they do not earn as much as they could, just as they do not feel loved.
If you put the keywords for and for side by side, you will get "earning power", which is a constructive interpretation of this provision. People with Pluto in the second house who work to get rid of negative Plutonic tendencies, i.e. resentment, anger, guilt, power struggles and financial management, can achieve incredible success. They can literally be money magnets, wizards capable of turning resources into wealth. But in order to achieve success, you must stop failing to spite others.
Tense aspects of Pluto with Mars
Anger is very difficult to express and is held under pressure until it becomes all-pervading resentment and dejection, because these people feel that anger has the ability to destroy, even kill. There could have been some kind of severe trauma, or perhaps there were not explicitly expressed, but strong resentments in childhood, some kind of hidden threat. At the very least, there is a belief that anger can destroy relationships, or open conflict can lead to renunciation. Since the power of anger is exaggerated, these people control it at all costs, and at the same time do not part with it. Others feel malice and dishonesty on their part, and may in turn be offended; in the end, people and Pluto can begin to bypass, which is exactly what they are afraid of. If people of Mars and Pluto learn to handle anger, they become able to heal long-term resentments, realizing the released energy to great benefit. The controlled use of this energy gives an extraordinary ability to concentrate. This energy can also be used for healing or other amazing things.
Pluto in the third house
These people believe that words have the power to destroy. They are extremely careful about what they say, so as not to give out any information that others could use to harm them or to control them. Such conditions develop if at least one of the family members had a black belt in language karate - a sarcastic, sarcastic person, whom the child had no strength to resist. It could very well have been a brother or sister—probably older—who were so superior in strength that the Plutonian learned to keep his mouth shut.
As adults, Third House Plutonians may either be afraid of verbal abuse, or they themselves may be intemperate and sarcastic, sharing the opinion that the best defense is an attack. Another possibility is that words may be at the center of a power struggle—until they have spoken their word, they have the upper hand. In a relationship, they can do without communication. As subordinates, they may withhold documents or other important information. As students, they will not look at notes and ask for additions. Words can also be used to manipulate, and with great effect.
People who use this position constructively are receptive and deep in thought and communication. They are gifted with the ability to see other people's motivations and can see deeply into any problem. They can use words for healing, getting right to the heart of the matter. They are excellent analytical writers and teachers. Instead of being manipulative, they can use words to influence others and inspire them to do good.
Pluto in the fourth house
This is a very plutonic personality, especially when Pluto is near the cusp. One of the parents, most likely the mother, was a domineering person, seeking to impose his opinion and control others. If one of the parents openly dominated, then the other could more subtly manipulate the child: "We are together against this monster." Often there is strong but not overt resentment in the home, especially with regard to the needs of the child or the need to care for him. Sometimes the grandmother enjoys great influence - she is, as it were, the matriarch of the family. There could be a real loss, such as the death of a parent, or there could be a constant threat of abandonment if the child didn't behave properly. Perhaps, near the time of the child's birth, someone's death was mourned, so the mother was in a sad mood and could not give much to the child.
If a man has or has an aspect between the Moon and Pluto, he may find it difficult to trust women; there may be resentment against them or a desire to manipulate them in order to make women symbiotically dependent and thereby avoid rejection. A parent in this position may resent the need to care for the child, and at the same time may overcompensate or symbiotically attach the child by doing too much for him. A parent can cling to the child as if it were a matter of life and death for him, feeling that at least in this relationship he will not be rejected. Conversely, the scars left from a lack of love and care in childhood can be so deep that a person decides never to become a parent.
When a person with Pluto or Scorpio in the fourth house becomes an adult, his house can become a battlefield for the struggle of forces; or, in order to avoid repeating what happened in the parental family, he decides to live alone. It can be difficult to live alone unless that person has absolute control over the situation. He says, "My home is my castle, my secret sanctuary, and I can't bear to share it with anyone." It is significant that people in this position have a need for privacy and solitude, and even if they live with others, they need to be alone for a while.
Pluto in the fifth house
Those who have Pluto or planets in Scorpio in the fifth house, at least among the older generations, often find themselves in a situation of forced marriage due to pregnancy. And even for people who are married, pregnancy can be used as a means to establish control in relationships - for example, as a guarantee that a spouse will not leave. Since this is not the most successful way of managing, such people often end up taking out on the child that he was not the first cause of his birth - either reject him, or spoil him. The offspring are very often born under such circumstances, children who were not wanted: parents put excess energy into the child and indulge him too much because of their feelings of guilt. These children resent how they are used and learn early to manipulate and maneuver between their parents. Children can also be seen as a means of exercising power, or a parent's witness that he or she will never be alone - then the bonds become symbiotic (ascending Cancer often has Scorpio in the fifth house, so this position helps explain Cancer's overwhelming love).
On the other hand, people with this position may give up the idea of having children altogether. If the parents denied the child, he, growing up, acquires fear or prejudice against the demands that his own children may make. He is afraid that parenthood will take over the rest of his life and leave him nothing for himself. In addition, parenting is an unwanted consumer of energy. And childlessness can be a kind of revenge - whether to a spouse. or parents - by refusing to grant them immortality.
When Pluto is in the fifth house or accented in Leo, one parent might revere the child's creativity and see it as a vehicle for wealth and power. Overdone, he can go too far, and then the talent becomes the focus of the struggle of forces. This has happened to many people who have Pluto in Leo - after all, this was the first generation that had enough free time and funds to develop creative inclinations in all of us. Talent can be the focus of many battles, especially for those who think that love is a force that transforms a person and awakens a genius in him. Love and transformation are inseparable for people with one of these combinations. "Let me love you so that I can exalt you in my eyes." Or vice versa. To better understand the romance of this position, read the descriptions of Pluto in the seventh and eighth houses, as they are similar.
Tense aspects of Pluto with the Sun
(To a lesser extent. If Pluto is accented in Leo, you may also notice some of these manifestations).
Some kind of authority figure is present here - usually a plutonic father, often a rude tyrant. Because of his imperiousness and selfishness, he cannot afford to praise his child, as if everything that the child does well diminishes his dignity, and everything that the child does badly casts a shadow on him. You can't achieve much with a father like that.
When used negatively, this position gives a combination of selfishness, Leo's need for attention and Scorpio's willpower. These people do not think of themselves without being something of themselves. If they have no influence on their world, they may develop self-hatred and sometimes be ruthless or use questionable tactics to prove their worth. With Scorpio's and Pluto's inherent drive to extremes, such people believe that if they are not someone, then they are nobody, and life has no value. They offend people in the spotlight and rush into battle when their egos are threatened. If they cannot expend their energy in battle, their self-hatred multiplies.
Paradoxically, when these people gain the ability to get rid of the desire to be in the spotlight, when power becomes less important to them, they really become very powerful in good deeds. The source of energy is their endless ingenuity, radiating from the very center of their being, the never-failing light of their inner Sun. Sun and Pluto shows the potential to transform your Self. If something needs to be worked out, these people will not back down until they finish the job. When they heal themselves, they will naturally have the ability to heal other people with similar problems.
Pluto in the sixth house
This position often indicates people who are obsessed with work to the point that they become workaholics. These people serve, but do not tolerate the position of servants, work insatiably, but do not tolerate work too hard. Such people believe that work is their own path to power, and indeed quietly gain influence, becoming absolutely necessary. Since such a desire for power is easily noticed by both the boss and employees, these people are not trusted. Power struggle introduces resentment and revenge into relations with employees, as a result of which such people have to quit one job after another, and not in the best situations.
The sixth house is another house of health, so natal or transiting Pluto here indicates the possibility of illness due to accumulated grievances. Illness may be the only available means to end the insatiable preoccupation with work. If it was not possible to gain power through work, the Plutonian of the sixth house can control others through illness - become an invalid, around whom everyone will run. A symbiosis is guaranteed: someone must take care of him. Most people are unable to leave a disabled person - they will be tormented by guilt.
Used constructively, this position indicates people who, through work, are constantly transforming themselves, realizing that work and relationships at work are a microcosm that reflects all of life. Any situation that arises at work can be used as a tool to help you deal with those parts of yourself that need to be changed. Work can be a powerful life-transformer, and these people, through their work, can become powerful transformers themselves. This is another manifestation of the ability to heal, sometimes developed as a result of illness.
Love can become an obsession when a person seeks an inseparable merging with a loved one. Issues of possession, resentment, guilt, and power struggles can set off a nuclear reaction. If all this repels a loved one, a Plutonian may retire into isolation, deciding to no longer have any relationship at all. Some may continue to keep in their memory a connection with the last partner who poured mud on them, and remembering haunts them. Others may choose to remain single because this type of person equates love with controlling another person, and they want nothing to do with it.
For many people in this position, love becomes tantamount to control in childhood: if they did not submit to the authority of their parents, they were in danger of being denied love and approval. Perhaps there was a real loss or death that instilled in them the fear of losing love, so they cling tenaciously to a partner, trying to become absolutely necessary. There could be a symbiotic relationship with one of the parents, like those described for Pluto in the fourth house: you and I are together against this monster (to some extent, this model may be true for the position of Pluto in other houses of relationships - the fifth and eighth ).
If Scorpio is in the tenth house and Pluto is in the seventh, this may indicate a parent who limits the child too much or who has seriously abused his trust. Sometimes a parent of the opposite sex is so dominant, overpowering, or seductive that such a position causes a horror of intimate relationships (in this case, the relationship often changes for the better after the death of such a parent).
In another model, relationships are mixed with transformation. These Plutonians may fall in love to make the loved one taller, while the loved one himself may resent both the urgency of change and the implied inequality in the relationship. There may be a struggle of forces, which in the end will lead to a break. The "patient" can spitefully become even worse. Or the Plutonian himself may become such a patient and fall in love with a powerful mentor.
If this position is used constructively, the relationship can become an arena of transformation for both the person and their partner. To become whole, these people may be forced to go through pain and resentment, which intensifies with each new love, until they learn to let go of them and forgive. When these people heal the difficulties in their relationships and learn to let go of problems, this position can make them good counselors, especially in matters of marriage, able to give advice and have the ability to love as a healing force.
Pluto in the eighth house
Sex is a difficult topic for people in this position. They have trained themselves to give it great power in their minds, so it becomes intimidating (our culture has given us all an idea of the exaggerated power of sex, but 8th house Plutonians take this idea to the extreme).
These people may feel that as soon as they start a sexual relationship, the partner begins to control them. As a result, they will think twice before going for it; at the same time, they are passionate people and it is difficult to avoid what pulls them so powerfully. They may at any cost seek to play a major role in sexual relations. Allowing or abstaining from sex becomes a means of control, and the bed can become a battlefield where other aspects of power in a relationship or in the outside world come to the surface. If resentment and mistrust build up in a relationship, it can cool off sexuality, and even after breaking up a difficult relationship, this type of person may remain in a "frozen" state, not wanting to open up to anything new. In this situation, some deep, dark secret can play a big role.
The eighth house is also the house of money, so patterns similar to those described for Pluto in the second house can operate. Dividing funds for such people is never easy; this is an area where there can be a fair amount of mistrust and an urgent need to establish control. Entering into the right of inheritance or a similar cheerless procedure can turn into a fierce battle.
Death is also an important issue here, which frightens and fascinates. Perhaps the child lived in an environment where there were many deaths around, or even more difficult - there was a constant threat of death, which is much more difficult to deal with. Maybe the father had a bad heart and the family was constantly on guard. This Plutonian type may have a strong fear of death and live with the constant thought that he could die at any moment.
The constructive use of this position gives the ability of the healer and, perhaps, the medium, a great ability to restore the strength of oneself and other people. When sex is freed from heavy emotional underpinnings, it can be an important means of rejuvenation and recovery. When money ceases to be a source of power struggle, such a situation may indicate a good ability to earn it or the ability to inspire others to succeed.
Pluto in the ninth house
This position indicates a deep, analytical mind, although such a person may have difficulty obtaining a higher education. This type of people cannot accept that to succeed means to get a diploma, because to do so is to confirm the victory of their parents. Many of them study at a university, but then, for some reason, do not finish the last semester, the last year, or even just do not complete their thesis. This is cruel revenge, driving crazy parents who so wanted their child to have an education, believing that this is a magic key to all doors.
This situation can be seen as a “bad luck” because these people themselves believe that education is a powerful factor that transforms lives, and that without it they will not achieve anything. indicates in which area of life a person invests excess energy, as if "fastening" himself to it - and does not feel satisfaction, regardless of whether he achieves something or not. And grievances can be vented on society. One highly intelligent man in this position, who had only one course left to complete in order to receive the coveted diploma, expressed to me his resentment against society. I shocked him by saying, “You know what? Society doesn't care if you finish your education or not! Society doesn't even know you exist! Education is for you." Struck by the simplicity of this idea, he, thanks to such a deliberate shock therapy, continued his education and received a diploma.
When people are working through hurts that stand in their way, Pluto in the ninth house can be a great position. These people are born scientists and explorers and can derive great satisfaction from self-study. They can also be powerful teachers, able to grasp the very essence of abstract disciplines, using the power of their minds to free others from the bondage of ignorance. Knowledge is indeed power, and the right use of knowledge can transform the world.
Pluto in tenth house
(Pluto in tense aspect to Meridian, Pluto to Saturn, Meridian in Scorpio, planet Scorpio in, sometimes accented Saturn in Scorpio).
This situation indicates a very difficult relationship with authorities; most likely, one of the parents oppressed, controlled the child, and maybe even insulted. As a result, the child developed a deep-seated resentment towards people in power (and perhaps the whole world) and a decision to never be in anyone's subordination. In addition, these people are very success-oriented, and it is difficult for them to succeed, because they start a fight with the authorities every time. And usually they end up harming themselves with their scorpion sting.
Parents in this position, being unable to exercise their power in the world, can take out their need to rule on their children, repeating, in fact, what was done to them themselves. Pluto in the tenth house indicates a critical, very ambitious parent who expects nothing less than BIG success and is never satisfied with the child's small successes. This Plutonian may often hear a parental curse: "You'll never get anything!", and he may go through many humiliating public failures to confirm such an opinion about him. The depth and intensity of this game of "failure out of spite" is very serious!
Such people can stubbornly resist healing, because any healing somehow puts a person under someone else's power. It's probably best to do it yourself. Success in healing is quite possible - and they are sure to be healed in the process of practice. People who have managed to free themselves from the negative manifestations of this situation, who have managed to handle uncontaminated energy, can have a strong impact on the world, healing and transforming it.
Pluto in the eleventh house
Here, the obsession is not the overbearing parent, but the group of the same age, to which these people so wanted to belong, as teenagers, but still could not break into it. For some, the price of belonging was sex. Others have opted for isolation rather than submit to group control, because teenagers demand more subordination than any parent. Resentment towards what happened in school can affect how an adult defines their belonging. The struggle of forces can affect friendship, which can be reduced to the level of possession, symbiosis, so often identified with influence. Others may remain isolated even as adults because they find it difficult to trust anyone. Participation in various groups can also be difficult, since these people see any form of organization as a means of exercising power.
Group therapy or self-help groups can lead to qualitative changes in attitudes towards alienation. If the issues of trust and resentment are worked out, the ability to be a powerful group leader may arise. These people may be involved in groups aimed at social reform, environmental control, or healing. Friendship can be an area where these people are transformed, as interacting with other Plutonians who are not afraid of intensity can lead to mutual healing.
Pluto in the twelfth house
Emotional suppression can cause self-destructive behavior or physical illness, as this is one of the houses of health. Here disease can serve as a means of isolating these people from a world that seems too powerful, too dangerous, and untrustworthy. Illness can be a means of controlling others, and this is also true of the emotional illnesses of the twelfth house. Have you ever had to tiptoe around someone who is constantly in deep depression and feel that this person controls you through their apparent weakness? Drug addiction, another manifestation of the twelfth house, can also be used to control emotions and as a means to keep others at bay.
These people can suppress the desire for power in themselves, and at the same time control other people in circuitous ways, which they themselves do not understand well. For example, the role of a helpless victim serves as a cover for the desire for power - have you ever had to "rescue" the poor fellow, who then took your whole life and all your energy into his hands? Then you, no doubt, realized that the role of the victim gives a lot of power. (Please understand that there are true sufferers - we are now talking about false sufferers, those who do not miss the opportunity to use such a situation, believing that their suffering is a kind of moral victory.) The unconscious fascination with power can also lead to encounters with mysterious figures, negative psychic phenomena, and all sorts of nasty situations where power is used for dark purposes. Healing deep-seated grievances can go a long way: it is required to raise this position from a negative manifestation to a constructive one. In the house of secrets, it becomes even more likely that there is some deep, dark secret, the unraveling of which by the right therapeutic method can free you from its influence.
A constructive use of this position is in its ability to penetrate the unconscious and heal deep-seated emotional problems. For example, this condition is often found in people working in the field of mental health. It is also known that people who have suffered from drug addiction and have found the strength to end it, are better than anyone else able to help other drug addicts. This position also gives mediumistic and psychic abilities; the study of dreams here can also be very useful. Another important way to use it is spiritual healing.
An excerpt from Donna Cunningham's book "Healing Pluto's Problems" Translation by A. Kolesnikov, 1989
Pluto's principle: life - death - life.
Pluto in Greco-Roman mythology is the god of the Underworld - the son of Kronos and Rhea, the brother of Zeus and Poseidon, the husband of Persephone (abducted by him): Hades for the Greeks = "Invisible", for the Romans Pluto or Dis Pater = "Rich". Therefore, the symbolism of the planet Pluto in astrology correlates with everything occult, dark and mysterious, it represents the forces of the invisible world, the realm of shadows, deep knowledge, death and rebirth. Pluto is a treasure of dark depths, an archaic origin and inexhaustible energy that does not fit into the framework of any moral and ethical categories. Pluto also personifies the ancient feminine, which can be creative, fertile, but can also be dark, cruel to the point of sadism, destructive and disastrous. The Pluto Principle is a powerful transformative force. The influence of Pluto is often associated with a feeling of power or weakness, with intense experiences, bondage and occult hobbies, often reaching the point of obsession.
Everything that lies in the area of influence of Pluto goes beyond the ordinary and familiar and becomes outstanding: outstanding genius, world fame, high-profile crimes, insatiable passion, obsession with an idea ...
Pluto completes one revolution around the Sun in 247.7 years. One should, perhaps, be careful when assigning certain meanings to Pluto, since Pluto influences entire generations of people, and a noticeable influence on the astrological chart of an individual is only when Pluto strongly dominates it - whether it is the position of an angular planet or a sign synthesis Scorpio, or major aspects with personal planets, especially conjunctions and quadratures.
However, Pluto is in every birth chart and, one way or another, manifests itself in the life of every person. This means that his influence will somehow be reflected in the image. Since we practically cannot influence the manifestations of the higher planets in our life, the manifestations of the Pluto principle (transformation and rebirth) in our external image, image, occur against our will, reflexively. But we can learn to be aware of these manifestations and take them into account in order to understand how other people perceive us when Pluto is active in us. In addition, we can learn to recognize manifestations of the principles of Pluto in the behavior of other people and learn to manage our attitude towards it. And this, from my point of view, is perhaps the most important thing for which, in fact, it is worth studying the science of Image.
For example, you come to your business partner to receive a pre-agreed share of the income from a joint venture. And then you begin to read Plutonian modalities in your partner’s behavior: the partner is incredibly gloomy, his face is completely impenetrable, his gaze is straight, somewhat askance, long and somehow magical, as if he is trying to penetrate your innermost essence; he either does not answer incoming calls in your presence, or answers something obscurely threatening; in general, he looks like he is experiencing something tragic, is in mourning; from him comes the feeling of a threat looming over you; you begin to feel like an accidental insect in the territory of a powerful ruler, busy with some global affairs about which you know nothing, and no matter what you do now, everything will be in vain. In such conditions, it goes without saying that it is completely inappropriate to talk about receiving money, although you came for this and expected to leave with the money. So, you are aware of the background inclusion of Pluto in your partner. The fact that the inclusion of Pluto for you is just background, weak, and not cognitive, strong, should not be in doubt: if it were strong, the partner would silently hire a killer or give you a car accident, or some other meanness, and you would get into much more formidable and hopeless reality than this. So you have the opportunity to realize in which of your personal imperfections the painful prick of the background inclusion of Pluto has fallen at the moment. Which of your fears should come to consciousness. What kind of subconscious program needs to be transformed. Remember other situations in which the other person appeared to you as a formidable, inexorable fate, and how you behaved in this case, what you felt, what choice you made, how you perceived the situation. For example, at this moment you become aware of your habit of giving in to power, of abandoning your goal for fear of being destroyed. And then, perhaps for the first time in your life, you suddenly, regardless of your will and common sense, calmly and firmly say, looking into your partner’s eyes: “I see that you are in trouble and you are not up to me. But I expected to receive a certain amount and it would be good to do it right now. Whether you get your money or not is not so important in comparison with the fact that one of your deepest complexes has been overcome - the fear of someone else's power. A small victory on the way to a big personality transformation.
First of all, the Pluto principle is expressed in our perception of another person in that this person seems to us an outstanding scientist, a shrewd detective, a powerful ruler, a tyrant, a magician, a wizard, a sorcerer, a witch, a healer, a devil (who believes in what) - in general, carrier of fatal forces in our lives. We may be horrified by such people and avoid them, we may expect miraculous solutions to our problems from them and trust them blindly, we may compete with them in power, or we may perceive the meeting and collision with them as a session of spontaneous psychoanalysis. Thus, the principle of Pluto is realized for us, personified in the image of another person. At the same time, for someone we ourselves will definitely play one of the roles of Pluto at least once in our lives. And if we realize this, let's say to ourselves: "It's me - the fatal one."
Fatal, fateful figures are not at all necessarily people whose image, appearance and demeanor contain or vividly present attributes that we subconsciously associate with science, power, magic, witchcraft. We can rarely meet such obvious, bright representatives of the Plutonian role in real life. Our ideas about their image are formed according to descriptions of appearance, clothes, accessories, jewelry, behavior and style of speech of sorcerers, witches, shamans, alchemists, soothsayers, which we read about in legends, myths, fairy tales, saw in the movies. Many representatives of such Plutonian professions and occupations as a healer, tarot reader, psychic, astrologer, meter of a secret society often resort to creating a special image to enhance the influence of their personality on the public and clients. This is a demonstration of one's power through the image, but not the fact that there is real magical power behind the appearance and manners. This is an image by which it is easy to read that an individual belongs to the guild of magicians and occultists, since it fully corresponds to the stereotypes and ideas that exist in society about how an astrologer or psychic should look like. You don’t need to go far for examples: pay attention to how the participants in the “Battle of Psychics” show look and find the most characteristic feature common to the image of all participants in them. This feature will be stereotypical, stereotyped for this role in the territory of the former USSR today.
Other representatives of the professions and occupations of Pluto: analysts, doctors, researchers, dictators, politicians, political technologists, scientists, speculators, thugs, demagogues, racketeers, mafia men, corrupt officials, shadow economy figures, shockers, hypnotists.
A person with a pronounced Pluto in the chart, in any case, will bear in his appearance and image the imprint of something supernatural, otherworldly, falling outside the usual. At the heart of these external manifestations lies a psychological feature: this person considers himself an outstanding personality. Deep down, he considers himself one of the few and always painfully experiences when he is compared with others, he does not like it, even if he does not show it. And he has reason to consider himself special. After all, when Pluto is strong in the chart He endows man with power. Such a person has a powerful inner strength, for example, the gift of suggestion, hypnotic abilities. Such a person is not afraid of any dark depths. He is always able to free himself from any obsolete structures and values and completely transform his life.
The problem of a person with pronounced influence of Pluto in the card is obsession. Often he is unable to resist subconscious drives and ideas that are overvalued to him, he is destructive, his behavior is fanatical. He is unable to leave something as it is, to free himself from attachment to things and people.
Often such a person directly or indirectly makes it clear that he serves some higher forces (light or dark). He believes that these forces protect him, protect him, support him and punish everyone who gets in his way. He is always ready to tell you an instructive story in which everyone who has ever offended him died in terrible agony. Or subtly hint at it ... And if he doesn’t like you for something, he will begin to make a mysterious conspiratorial look in your presence, from which you will be jarred, and goosebumps will run down your back. It will hint at the fact that he sees through you, and you are bad in every respect, and he condemns you, and if you are still alive, it is only because he humbly forgives you and provides a generous chance to change your mind and take the true path. Such psychological games are almost always present in groups and associations of people involved in esotericism and occultism, extrasensory perception, healing, astrology, parapsychology, "spiritual practices" at the amateur level. It is difficult for people with accentuated higher planets in the horoscope to adequately fit into society, to harmoniously apply their unusual abilities in life. So often the principles of the higher planets in their life are realized in belonging to some circle of people with unusual hobbies, in sectarianism. This belonging is necessarily reflected in one way or another in the appearance of a person.
If a person with a pronounced Pluto in the horoscope has not yet reached the ideal of Man, that is, is not a holistic nature, then criticism in his address, any kind of comments, recommendations and advice, vivid self-expression in his presence, boasting (not necessarily excessive) and in general the presence he perceives some remarkable feature in you as a threat to his own exclusivity, an attempt to dominate him, that is, to deprive him of his power. And he will do his best to regain a position that confirms his right to a prominent role, especially if he believes that you threaten his authority in the eyes of others.
This is a rather unpleasant type: he will not miss the opportunity to speak disparagingly about the enemy, trying to humiliate him in the eyes of others. It belongs to him. Everything is used here: slander, distortion of facts, jokes, ridicule. A favorite method of psychological pressure is intimidation through hoaxes. Out of revenge or out of a desire to assert himself at your expense, he will not miss the opportunity to comment on your loss, failure, trouble. In everyday life, for example, such an aggressor husband uses the ordinary situation with a burst of water supply to once again demonstrate his power to his wife: “I did it. And if you don’t listen to me again, I will do the same with your aorta, ”he will say in a mentor tone, magnetically looking into his eyes. Another example: in a team, you candidly share your impressions of how well everything worked out for you and a friend in a traffic accident in which you recently ended up together. The aggressor will make a mysteriously condescending face, smile sarcastically, shaking his head: “This is not because you have a good Guardian Angel, but because your friend turned out to be nearby, if not for him ...” - and clicks his tongue, making it clear that he is aware from otherworldly sources about the terrible danger looming over you, which is retribution for some of your sins especially condemned by him. He is too vain to easily accept that he is somehow imperfect. If he admits his imperfection, he will demonstrate to you that this is an exceptional imperfection, unlike anything else, unprecedented. If he talks about the trials, insults and betrayals that have fallen to his lot, then you will understand that these trials are of such a nature that an ordinary person cannot survive them.
Talking about Pluto's aspects to personal planets in a person's horoscope, it is impossible not to say about the guilt complex. This complex is expressed in the fact that a person, having admitted or only thinking that he has committed a reprehensible act, imagines in horror that everyone will be his judge. A child who has not successfully experienced the phase of the Oedipus complex may, for example, feel guilty for wanting to get rid of one of the parents ... This complex is reflected in the birth chart in disharmonious aspects between Mars and Pluto (square, opposition), as well as in similar aspects between Venus and Pluto - if the guilt is of a sexual nature (for example, when a child is caught masturbating ...).
The external form cannot exist without the internal content. They are linked together, conditioned and mutually determined. So if you see signs of Pluto activity in your behavior, appearance, manners, explore the position of Pluto and other higher planets in your birth chart in order to deeply understand what is behind these external manifestations. To understand the psychological basis of your craving for marginal external self-expression.
The person in whose card dominated by Pluto, there will be many irretrievable losses and crises in life, and they will strengthen or harden his character. There will be a desire for political power and outstanding wealth, as well as a desire to be famous all over the world.
When Pluto is associated with the personal planets of the horoscope by harmonious aspects.(trine, sextile, multiple opposition), irretrievable losses and losses are experienced quite easily by the person. When the map has tense aspects of Pluto with personal planets(compound, quadrature, opposition), we say that Pluto is afflicted. Failures, even minor ones, seem catastrophic to such a person.
The sign in which Pluto is located determines the style, characteristics of the destructive and transformative influences that the generation corresponding to the position of Pluto in the sign will deal with. The sign of the zodiac through which Pluto passes determines the qualities through which the generation will feel its power and weakness.
Pluto was discovered in 1930. In astronomical circles, the planetary significance of Pluto is still debated. Some scientists believe that we are talking about nothing more than a satellite of Neptune, escaping from its gravitational field. However, the influence of Pluto on people's lives is obvious.
In each sign, Pluto spends a long period of time, because its influence on the life of a particular person occurs mainly through the sphere of the house in which it is located. The position of Pluto in the sign characterizes the properties of all people born during this period. The individual properties that Pluto gives to the owner of the horoscope are determined by the aspects of Pluto to personal planets. Wherein minor aspects of Pluto are taken into account only when the personal planet aspected by Pluto has major aspects to other real planets, fictitious planets (Moon Nodes, White and Black Moons), Angles and points are not taken into account. House where Pluto is located, indicates the sphere of a person's life, where he will face the processes of transformation of his life and personality, determines the conditions in which a person will feel his power and weakness, act as a victim and executioner.
Pluto stays in one sign for an average of 21 years. Since Pluto's orbit is very different from the orbits of all other planets, the period of its stay in a sign can vary from 11 to 30 years. Every time around the period when Pluto changes signs moving through the zodiac, a large number of people experience difficulties at the same time, regardless of what house Pluto occupies in their natal chart and how it is aspected.

The house in which Pluto is located is the sphere of power and weakness, strength and impotence. It shows where a person depends on others, where he is not able to find a solution to the problem; but it is also an area where he can experience the deepest transformation, however difficult, but the only one capable of helping him recover, change, become a new person.
If Pluto is at a distance of +/- 15 degrees from one of the four cardinal points: the Ascendant, the Midheaven, the Descendant or the depth of the Sky, then it acquires the status of an angular planet. If there are several such planets, the connection with the ASC (temperament) has more weight, then (in descending order of weight) with the MC (lifestyle, behavior), with the DSC and IC. If all the angles are expressed, the planet that is closest to the Angle, or the one that is most manifested in the radix in terms of analogies (for example, is the mistress of the planets in the stellium - the one in the stellium in the sign of control or exaltation; in the sign in which the Sun is located, or in the same sign as the ASC).

Mephistopheles appeal, mesmerizing gaze and powerful, magnetic, irresistible charm.

Here a person depends on others, is not able to find a solution to the problem; but here he can experience the deepest transformation, albeit difficult, but the only one capable of helping him overcome the tendency to self-destruction, chronic diseases, addictions, irrational phobias, conspiracies of secret enemies. Intensive training and work with the forces of the collective unconscious lead to a profound transformation of the personality. In solitude and meditative peace one opens up to these transforming forces. A victim of his fanatical dreams of omnipotence and fears of weakness. An inexplicable fear of the unconscious and the primitive forces that dwell in one's own soul. At the slightest bodily or mental illness, he feels helpless and finds himself in isolation.
In solitude, he gains power, is reborn to life after severe trials.
11 September 2010Pluto in the natal chart
Pluto completes the destruction of the boundaries of the human ego, begun by Uranus and Neptune. The function of Pluto is transmutation, transformation, qualitative change, control and distribution of energy, energy interaction with the outside world. In its highest manifestation, the inclusion of Pluto is the reign of the Holy Spirit and the complete destruction of the kingdom of matter with its laws. This is what in esotericism is called the second birth, the destruction of everything relative and temporal, symbolized by the Old Adam, and a complete merger with the Absolute. Pluto completely and completely burns all the boundaries set by Saturn. Along with the boundaries disappears and the structure of personality generated by them. Astrology ascribes to Pluto the quality of cold fire, in which everything is burned. It burns the last human illusions, all the remnants of the human ego, its ideals, hopes and the most reliable constructions of the human mind.
In Freud's horoscope, Pluto does not form major aspects, being the so-called "planet in the mine." The manifestations of such a Pluto are beautifully described by Freud himself in the concept of Id, proposed by him in 1923 in his work "I and It" 7 years before the discovery of Pluto.
The influence of Pluto, although called an awakening and always sudden and unexpected in nature, is the result of long and hard previous work. It is not a spontaneous impulse of the will, as is the case with Mars. And these are not separate glimpses of intuition, as with Uranus, and not immersion in another being, as in the case of Neptune. This is a new birth from which there is no turning back. Having awakened from sleep, a person no longer lives with the feelings and emotions of his dream, he has a different life. Similarly, a person baptized by Pluto no longer lives with past attachments, illusions and mental attitudes; he simply burns them in the cold fire of Pluto like old and useless trash.
The changes brought about by Pluto are so strong and so concentrated that most people openly resist them, but this only increases the internal pressure and tension. The only thing that can get us through these periods without psychological trauma is a firm, unshakable faith in the wisdom and order of life itself.
In the scheme of the Tree of Life, Pluto corresponds to the sephirah Kether (Crown). Here comes the realization that there are no differences between our world and the "higher" worlds and that all souls are one with the Divine Soul. The goal of human life is to experience this fundamental fact of Being and thereby connect all creation with its Source.
In a sense, Pluto is merciless in its total destruction. This tendency of complete and fundamental destruction in the highest manifestations of Pluto leads to the destruction of illusions, lies, everything old, sinful, symbolized by "Old Adam". Unfortunately, at the lower levels of Pluto's manifestation, the tendency of destruction shifts to the physical plane - a dominant or strongly placed Pluto can be found not only in the horoscopes of great saints and mystics, but also in the horoscopes of murderers and sadists.
Man with strong Pluto not afraid of change, ready to enter into any situation, he does not like to declare himself, secretive, prefers to manage processes, being in the background, without playing mystery. He does not hold on to his achievements and savings, for him psychological and energy stress is much more important, he lives by this. It is almost impossible to intimidate such a person with the fact that something could suddenly happen to him, that he could lose something. Very often, a strong Pluto can be found in people born from unequal or mixed marriages. A strong Pluto makes a person look for such connections in the outside world that would help him get closer to the secrets of the universe, to experience all sorts of so-called marginal states.
Troubled Pluto manifests itself in a demonstrative desire for self-affirmation, the desire to stand out. The external appearance of such people bears the imprint of the struggle of energies, internal conflict; they always try to look provocative and defiant - in clothes, behavior, communication. On a psychological level, such people have a unique ability to turn others away from themselves because of their desire to bind everyone to themselves. They have a very strong sense of subconscious guilt, in communication they constantly try to justify themselves in some way. This style of behavior is often formed as a result of psychological trauma, betrayal, tragedies. Sometimes problematic Pluto forms the belief that if I experienced something, then there is nothing wrong with the fact that others will experience it, as happened, for example, with I.V. Stalin. Pluto in astrological houses will show through what a person seeks to control the outside world, to manipulate others.
Weak Pluto is present in people who do not know how to build relationships with society, they often try their best to hide this problem, but their actions in this direction are most often destructive. The sphere of the house in which Pluto is located is perceived by them as a source of danger and problems that they cannot cope with.

On a personal level, Pluto in Sagittarius brings hope for a better and deeper understanding. At times, such a person can be extremely impractical. But an optimistic temperament, good spirits and enthusiasm will never let them become discouraged.
Not so long ago, astronomers deprived a small planet of a full-fledged planetary status, degrading it into a dwarf one. However, astrologers do not agree with this approach. Despite its modest size and remoteness from the Earth, the planet Pluto remains as significant in modern astrology as it was in previous decades.
A discovery that startled astrologers
Yes, we are not talking about centuries, as is the case with other astronomical bodies closer to the Earth, which astrologers used in horoscopes and calendars even before our era. The object was discovered relatively recently, in the thirties of the twentieth century.
Around the same time, by an amazing coincidence, the works of psychologists famous today were published: Carl Jung, Alfred Adler, Sigmund Freud. It was they who opened the concept of the subconscious to the general public, explained the mechanisms of its work. These discoveries clarified some of the questions that arose in the preparation and interpretation of cosmograms. Pluto in the natal chart clearly explained the reason for the shift in some natives of the balance towards instincts, the predominance of unconscious desires over the will of man.
Global Impact
But the significance of Pluto in astrology is important not only for individuals.
Unlike Mars, which is close in a number of characteristics, it is able to influence global phenomena, the fate of entire generations. The period of revolution of a celestial body around the star is almost a quarter of a millennium, so it has enough time to set in motion significant forces.
The object has the greatest power in the Abode - in the sign of Scorpio. So, he was in it from 1983 to 1995 - this time saw the heyday of mafia structures, the collapse of the Soviet Union. On April 26, 1986, the object was in opposition to the Sun - and it was on this day that one of the worst disasters of the twentieth century occurred, the explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.
Sphere of influence
Named after the Roman god of the underworld, in astrology Pluto is responsible for the dark side of the human personality - the Ego, the inner self. The sphere of influence of the celestial body includes:
- instincts, subconscious;
- change, transformation;
- death, resurrection;
- physical love, sex;
- secret knowledge, occultism, mysticism.
The planet rules the Eighth House. She rules over the zodiac constellation Scorpio. The object has a unique characteristic: it combines all four elements. Occultists consider its color to be brown, which is formed by mixing several basic colors.
Image and its symbolism
The designation of the planet Pluto accepted in astronomy looks like this:
Pluto's graphic astrological symbol includes a circle as a sign of rebirth, an arc symbolizing open possibilities, and a cross as a sign of purpose. This set is not random.
The planet Pluto in astrology is responsible for the destruction in the life of the native of everything unnecessary, obsolete. Figuratively speaking, the function of the object is to burn the bridges that connect the native with the past, from which he has already grown.
Not everyone likes it. Such qualities of a person as sentimentality, habits, force the native to fight against plutonic influence. But the more forces a person puts into the fight against the influence of the object, the more destructive the consequences. Reconciliation with the inevitable will bring peace and liberation.
Secrets of the subconscious
Another important property of the object is to provide a connection between the consciousness and subconsciousness of the individual. The influence of the planet in the horoscope pushes the native to self-knowledge, acceptance of their basic needs and desires. Misunderstanding, rejection of this side of human nature can make a person unhappy. Having studied and realized the true motivation of his actions, a person will achieve harmony with himself.
Description of a typical Plutonian
Not everyone who has a markedly pronounced Plutonian influence in the cosmogram is able to use its full potential. This requires a deep study of personality. The influence of the object connects the native with large, significant public organizations: political, military, social. It can be, for example, an army, but it can also be a criminal group.
The beneficial aspects of the object in the native's cosmogram endow the personality with charisma, good health, and physical strength. Negative ones push for conflicts, increase the risk of having an accident, becoming a victim of an accident. The lower Plutonians often choose for their implementation areas related to waste processing, mining, and funeral rites.
A native with a strong planet in the horoscope can be called a hidden leader. In ordinary life, these people are taciturn, reserved, prone to sarcasm and harshness in communication. The outstanding qualities of the native are manifested in extreme situations: during wars, disasters, revolutions.
Passion and strength are hidden under the mask of external calmness of the Plutonian. When others are lost, he takes control of the situation. A person who has a strong planet Pluto in the cosmogram is able to go towards the goal contrary to the instinct of self-preservation.
