Pluto’s transits through the houses of the astrological horoscope signifies the areas of life that are due for radical transformation. In the area ruled by the transited house, structures in your life have built up to the point that it is no longer possible to patch up whatever is wrong. It is time for a full-scale reconstruction, preceded if necessary by destruction of the old. —Robert Hand
LEO (Pluto in House 6): Control through micro managing will undermine your health. Focus on process rather than perfectionism. Tension at work might lead you to seek another job or new methods of doing your job. You might get into a new line of work that involves dredging up the old in preparation for the new. You are capable of having a lot of control over both your physical and psychological health. However, go easy on yourself. Forgive yourself if you slip and eat a cookie. Watch out for cravings of a particular junk food or resistance to exercise due to an unconscious resentment that you have to work for it (Remember work is love in action).
VIRGO (Pluto in House 5): Facets of Virgo’s personality that are usually hidden come to the surface. Therefore hidden talents and strengths that Virgo might have projected onto others demand expression. Healthy revelations for this energy might be hearty play, a new art form, or increased creativity. An unhealthy symptom could be excessive, compulsive risks or an unhealthy affair to compensate for what Virgo might perceive as long-overdue fun.
LIBRA (Pluto in House 4): Profound shift on the level of soul that could manifest in a change in their home life such as a change of residence, extensive repair, or changes in who live in the household. Something inside Libra wants to grow and even though they might not feel ready, they are really are ready on the inside. Libra might have to deal at last with certain problems that he has been living with since childhood. No matter what your age, you have an opportunity to be more yourself, your authentic self than you have ever before. No matter what the outer circumstances appear to be, the upheaval in the home is for your spiritual and psychological growth.
SCORPIO (Pluto in House 3): Scorpio might be less inclined toward small talk because they have issues of life and death on their minds. Scorpio would benefit from having someone to talk to. Avoid arguments over intellectual concepts. Watch for unconscious worry. Journaling is a healthy way of handling the tons of stuff on your mind. Insights that come to you are for you, so avoid trying to change others’ minds. You will achieve great success if you transform your beliefs by the spiritual practice of speaking only what you want to bring into this world.
SAGITTARIUS (Pluto in House 2) A profound shift in core values could dramatically shift your income either up or down. Some Sagittarians will lose money and/or esteem as part of the process of new growth. The task for the year is to validate and appreciate your essential being regardless of earnings or prestige. You define yourself more by your inner values than by lusting for material rewards you can’t take with you when you go.
CAPRICORN (Pluto in House 1): Sing! “Look at me, I am changing.” Capricorn might feel compelled to change hair, dress, and body. The changes might be motivated by your dissatisfaction with yourself. Unresolved psychological issues, conflicts, or current personality patterns can be obstacles or barriers to success. Capricorn might learn the spiritual power in feeling vulnerable. You revel in being the boss of yourself, rather than the boss of others. You love your own company and learn to trust yourself to the extent that you can open up more to others.
AQUARIUS (Pluto in House 12): You learn that you have to play it straight with the government such as the IRS, employers, and counselors. Lies betray and portray beliefs that could undermine success. For example, if you are applying for employment or a loan and you lie, the lie determines that you believe you are not enough as you are. And your small untruths come back to haunt you. A healthy demonstration is that you are confident in your beliefs and do not have to prove them to others. You can help others and yourself through your faith in a higher power.
PISCES (PLUTO IN House 11) Pisces might find themselves in social situations where they feel inadequate, unprepared, or not as good as others. They might have a tendency to judge others and withhold their full participation in the group. Pisces will serve themselves by associating themselves with people who are doing what Pisces wants to do, rather than associating with people they feel comfortable with. Pisces might be dealing with power issues either as the leader of the follower. Pisces realize they can accomplish more through group efforts than on their own. As they grow, Pisces could feel like a traitor to their old goals; however their old goals have simply been transformed.
ARIES (Pluto in House 10): Aries experiences changes in status and career. Ambition is high and Aries desires to take control and be a dominant force in their life direction. Realize that much power is wielded through positions that you might consider beneath you. Find a way to do your calling regardless of pay or recognition. Know that the instinct to be great is the calling of the Divine who seeks form through you. Seek to serve over achieving and this way you become a force and source for transformational urges. Your ambition makes you very vulnerable and vulnerability helps you cultivate spiritual power.
TAURUS (Pluto in House 9): The Taurus energy encounters a crisis of faith that could catapult her into a depression or sadness. Inevitably, this loss of faith, leads to the resurrection of a deeper faith that does not need to be argued or even agreed with, but that provides a personal sense of satisfaction. Taurus need for definite answers and her frustration at not finding them will give way to her trusting the wisdom of the unknowable divine one and form the basis of a renewed faith.
GEMINI (Pluto in House 8): You may have issues with how others handle money; however your power is in assessing and controlling your own monetary situation. If you stay on a job solely for the money, resentment will rise—especially if you perceive that others are earning more money than you. Request what you want and accept what others are willing or not willing to do. Life lessons are learned through different kinds of losses.
Cancer (Pluto in House 7): The issue of power might be confronted through feelings of powerlessness and intense resentment of people who have authority or privilege over you. Unskillful ways of dealing with power is to put others down and criticize them. Healthy ways of dealing with power might be to accept limitations and imperfections (in self and in others) as the foundation of great success. Cancer’s choice is to learn lessons through love or hate since power might be derived either way. Cancers have the opportunity to stop projecting greatness, talent, wisdom onto others and take responsibility for their own capacity for greatness. As Cancer becomes more authentically herself, relationships built on false premises will die ultimately to be replaced with relationships based on true intimacy.
