First, this disclaimer: I use EQUAL houses. When I say “angles of your chart”, that’s exactly what I mean. I am referring to Pluto transits over the angles of your chart, where the angles are the same degree as your ascendant.
Pluto transits over the angles of your chart are invariably drastic and life-changing. For example, when Pluto crossed my midheaven, my life took such a turn, I had to live underground for close to ten years. Me! A social, outspoken person.
Prior to this transit, I’d always lived in the light. I was listed in the phonebook by the time I was 17 years old. All the sudden I ceased to exist in public (10th house) life. Not only that, I lie dormant for nearly a decade.
I know a man, he’s a Virgo with a Sagittarius Moon. He’s a vibrant, kind, active person. When Pluto crossed his descendant, he had a motorcycle accident that wound up costing him his foot and leg below the knee. He owned a business with an office in an open loft above the ground floor of the large open space that housed his operations.
I watched him hop up those stairs on his one leg, after that accident, wondering just exactly how he could manage. He had a family who relied on him, foot or no foot. I guess that was that.
Not everyone has a Pluto transit an angle of their chart in their lifetime but some people have this transit twice. I will fall in this group, provided I live a through 2021. That’s when Pluto will cross my ascendant.
Update – I’m updating this post, in 2024, post Pluto transiting across my ascendant. I was obliterated by this transit. I spent about two years, feeling “voided” as a person. Sort of like a gutted, husk of a human being.
I compare this to a forest, burned to the ground. There is nothing, for a period of time. But now new growth is appearing as I begin to rise from the ashes. It’s a classic Pluto story. Can’t say that I’ve enjoyed it, though. While I like to brood, I prefer sunny days!
Bottom line, a Pluto transit to an angle of your chart, wipes out the structure of your life… there’s a void period, after which you re-emerge and flourish.
Have you ever had Pluto transit an angle of your chart? What happened?
My ASC Scorpio and was married to a Scorpio who left before tPluto conj ASC. Emotionally shattered by divorce but when Pluto conj ASC my son killed in a car accident n the most painful time of my life. Natal Pluto Mars sq ASC.
It took years to accept but time does soften and learning Astrology was life saving. When I was a child, my adopted father used to call me Pluto as a nick name!
Welcome,Phoenix. I’m very sorry about your son.
Thank u Elsa. I’ve been fortunate to also have
nJupiter trine Sun which has been my life buoy?
I am just reading this thread now 🙂 I am to experiencing pluto at the ascendant (23 degrees Capricorn). It will completely cross 2020. I am finding this hard however finding astrology in the past year has at least made me conscious:) 13 years ago my marriage ended, became a single mother, had a two short lived relationships, and have reached for prescription medication at times to deal with the deep despair. Now I’m more conscious of what is happening I am surrendering a lot more however it’s still difficult at times. Last 12 months life has changed so much and I have felt a massive sense of lose however I am rebuilding and life day by day is getting better as long as I don’t fight the changes. My girls are now successful young ladies and have left the nest. My family is also slowly growing in their own directions. I’ve had a career change (which I love) and also a suburb house change which I am also enjoying. Looking to expand my career in coming year. One thing that does and has surprised me is the feeling I get if I’m presented with a relationship/date. The feeling I get is like having my head under water. I realise now that this is just part of the process so I’m not fighting it 🙂
When Pluto crossed my IC, I up and moved 1000 miles away from everyone and everything I knew and loved except for my daughter who went with me. I stayed there for 14 years until my Dad was diagnosed with cancer at which point, I quit my career of 8 years anx moved back home. I am an only child. Consequently that move coincided with Pluto entering my 5th house. I lost my Dad in 08, 2 years after moving home. Mom moved in with me in 2012 and I lost her this year in March. Being an only child and single, I feel like an orphan and am truly devastated. Coincidentally, her death coincides with Pluto entering my 4th house on my solar chart. Saturn was also opposed my moon at the same time. On another note, My home was severely damaged by Harvey. I am just now getting it finished and will be selling. I am petrified it won’t sell for what I need. My moon has been assaulted by Pluto and Saturn for a many years. Amd Uranus was oppose my sun and Neptune squaring my venus/mars co junction. I have HAD IT with the outer planets. Pluto and Saturn will be squaring my sun all next year. My rising sign is Leo. Am I going to die? UGH!
wow that is a truly relentless hit after hit after hit you start asking what else will the universe through my way
I wish you the very best moving forward and grief is a relentlessness heavy cloak !!! yet the resilience you are building
ve the courage to share your story and still rise each day
I live in New Zealand and was going through over 10 000 earthquakes during my pluto transits and the loss of my father this stunning lady Maya Angelou wrote a poem that is universal …
You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.
Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
’Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.
Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I’ll rise.
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops,
Weakened by my soulful cries?
Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don’t you take it awful hard
’Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines
Diggin’ in my own backyard.
You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.
Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise
That I dance like I’ve got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?
Out of the huts of history’s shame
I rise
Up from a past that’s rooted in pain
I rise
I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.
may it give you strength xx
I’m a Leo with tPluto opp MC Cancer n Pluto has been in 4th and I’m still here! Uranus is about to opp my Scorpio
ASC and I’ve been watching these transits for a while.
I think now it might be emotional changes after so many harder transits in the past. I’m also an only child. Maybe it will be your Moon transforming in some way and
Your emotions will be more tranquil. Wishing you many trines and more happiness
Pluto is exactly conjunct my MC in the 9th house. I’m pretty frustrated because I’ve been wanting to work in my chosen profession in the healing arts but I’ve been raising my small children full time and dealing with the intense debilitating Lyme infection I’ve had since I was 8. It’s never been this bad, but it has forced me to finally kick it once and for all. I’ve been hard at regaining my health for over a year and my oldest is about to go to kindergarten, so I’m hoping for a chance to get out and work. More than ever I want to do my career – but have felt so powerless and physically prevented from doing so. I hope the Pluto conjunct my MC will prompt me to regain the personal power in my career. Pluto is also squaring Chiron in the First house, which is conjunct my Ascendent. My natal Pluto is with Mars and Saturn in the 6th house, all 5 degrees apart. They have been contributing factors to being so sick I can’t work – I believe. Funny though, I’m looking towards Saturn of all planets coming into Aquarius in my 10th house to give me support – it will trine the 6th and I need all the harmonious aspects I can to get me out of the slump.
I have my natal sun 24° & venus 23°53 on my 23°55 DC in capricorn. Natal pluto 4h conjuct 2° SN both scorpio. 9h pisces moon, 20°53 & Neptune is stationed Retrograde 20°57.
I had cancer, lost my hair, teeth. Was kidnapped & raped, court through that. Lost my home the same month, my landlord sold the house. My car was vandalized twice for 6k total, so I sold it. Became homeless for a year in 18-19. Got a home. Sold my car. My only child switched schools 5 times. Had issues acting out due to the above. I lost my matenal grandmother, grandfather, sister, step grandmother, two male friends. My daughters paternal grandmother and great grandmother. I now developed hip issues, had pelvic surgery. Had a heart attack 2 weeks ago. The messed up my stimulus & I cut off ten plus 15+ year friendships.
Oh my! that´s a lot to handle!! But you mean all that happened to you during the transit??? All in a year?? I think you are really resilient.
My cancer was 2013 (when the transit entered my 6h). The rest happened in 2018 – Now. Within the last 2 years. Thank you, fortitude is my strength.
I have jupiter 8h. Mars 5h & all my cap sun, venus, merc & Neptune 6h help me deal with the shadow side easier.
I have had too much for one lifetime.
Just hope u have some trines from the fourth house. Pluto retro now returning to opp MC then again later. Still in grief for my late partner n in a Piscean underworld…but this too will pass…like Pluto conj Scorpio ASC
One day at a time or even one hour
????????????
Hi everyone!
I have the solar arc PLUTO on my ASC now and squaring my MC. By Jan 2021, in addition to what I mentioned, I will have my solar arc Jupiter squaring my Pluto natal and by September 2021, in addition to both aspect mentioned, solar arc sun squaring my natal Neptune. I am super worried.
Solar arcs are in:
1) Pluto in Scorpio ruler of 1st house natal
2) Jupiter in Cancer ruler of 8th house natal
3) Sun in Virgo ruler of 9th house natal
4) Pluto natal is ruler of 1st house and 5th house. Pluto natal is in 11th house in Libra with sextile aspects to Neptune natal in 1st house and Saturn natal and Venus natal (in conjunction) in 9th house.
5) Jupiter natal is ruler of 2nd house. Jupiter natal is in 7th house, in sextile aspect to the Sun natal and Mercury natal (both in conjunction for some degrees) sun natal in cancer in 9th house and mercury natal in leo in 9th house
6) as I mentioned previously, Sun natal is in 9th house, in cancer but rules 9th house.
7) just in case… Saturn natal in 9th house, ruler of 3rd house.
8) just in case… Uranus natal is in 12th house, ruler of my 4th house. Transiting my moon (this transit finished just a month ago). Uranus transit in 6th house was opposing Uranus natal in 12th house. Uranus transit was squaring sun and mercury in 9th house and in conjunction with moon natal in 6th house in Taurus. Moon is ruler of 8th house.
To mention my first aspect… Pluto on my ASC, I have not been able to find a job in more than a year. (Uranus was crossing (transiting) my moon in 6th house since 2016). I was working in a good environment and suddenly, out of the blue, everything changed in my work environment making it so heavy that I decided to quit. I worked again but I lost the confidence in everything surrounding me. Since 2018, I have been feeling hopeless, desperate. Since 2018 (November) No incomes but instead, I am relying on my husband (which it is difficult to me. I have been working since I was a teen, starting by 14-16 and completely working with no stop since 16-17), feeling independent.
I have felt stalked despite there are no words and no “physical” evidence since 2018, because I discovered in 2017, that some people are listening my conversations and reading everything I do through my phone and they react to my conversations. Obviously, I already have tried to reset and format my phone, changed it, and I did everything on my power to try to change it, but unfortunately, this still happens. So I cannot even have a regular discussion with my husband. I feel no freedom despite I am at my own home. We are also waiting for the answer of immigration to become a permanent resident. Not sure what it is going to happen. I feel like if SpaceX would be traveling to other planets, I would definitely pick one of those to go that other place and start a new life with my husband and my child.
I starting to look for ways to have incomes through the internet due to the limitations manifested in my life.
I must add pandemic times and schooling from home. Working since 3 weeks ago as a food delivery but not making even the minimum salary per day despite of working more than 8 hours daily.
Pluto crossed my descendant in 1995 on the day I was attacked and molested by a stranger on my school campus. It changed my life forever.
That’s terrifying LM. I hope that you are able to find peace.
Pluto has crossed my Nadir opposing my MC twice and I have had no incentive to continue what I usually love to do.
Instead, I’ve been researching Countries’ horoscope and thief’s Presidents or Prime Ministers which so often proves how astrology can work.
Same transit here. TotallY depressed, no light to the future.
I’m sorry, Lou. I hope things improve for you.
Lou, the light is there, just hidden for a while, then a spark will appear…?
Pluto opposed my ascendant by solar arc at the age of 5. It also opposes my ascendant mundanely. With the bizarre events taking place now that Uranus is in on my ascendant, there isn’t a doubt in my mind that society has been trying to destroy me from nearly day one…and it involves my sexual orientation and gender – a gay male that a devious society is trying to turn into a straight woman to appease their sick notion of “balance”. I even met a person whose life somewhat mirrors mine – someone society has labelled as mentally ill because he was able to see through their gaslighting bullsh!t..a Libra bf of mine who I suspect is a primary culprit of the illusions. So their solution or attempt at penance for having been discovered as demons due to use of “illicit” drugs, which they ironically pushed you towards itfp, is pharma drugs with zombie side effects that kinda force you underground because you have been relegated to a position of feebleness, or to hook you up with a job to recruit another victim. And if you don’t do the latter, you conveniently become the “virus” that society “defeated”. But that’s quite alright. Defeat me now. I win later. I’ve already had a premonition and the streets will be filled with apocalyptic violence, mostly composed of young-ish white females ripping each other to shreds, but not those of today. The white women of yesteryear who never paid the price for being the serpent in the garden, who knowingly spawn Hitler, who lied on Emmitt Til, who created Trump by being just as bad as daddy Trump. What a mother, eh? In this future, everyone will have paid the price and suffered from Pluto’s savage desire for payback. But he won’t be satisfied until the roaring stars of the 20’s and prior are dimmed and taken to task for the hell they created on earth. Queen of the damned was a black Capricorn female for a reason. Men inherit evil from their mothers so before you go blaming the white man, look closer and see why Pluto hovers over Scorpio. He will have her for lunch one day.
Pluto is crossing my partner of 6 years’ ascendant right now. He also has Cancer conjunct his ASC, so Pluto is opposing both his ASC and Moon. He also has Venus in his 7th, at 4 degrees. So everything I read about these transits and aspects raises alarms. Can anyone offer some positive feedback involving all off these transits and aspects? It would be much appreciated!
Hi Karen,
This will bring a marked transformation with regards to his personality, immediate environment and potentially physique.
Over the last 10-15+ years..he would have had a lot of vicious hidden enemies..where groups of people at times..could have worked against him..usually due to jealousy..
He now will have a very strong personality..if he wants to be a part of a group he will, if not he won’t.
When any outer planet crosses an angle..there’s usually some quite definite change..between this period of life..and the next..
This is not to say that your relationship cannot endure the transit..
Pluto opposing Venus will be a period of learning to love himself..as well as potentially falling madly inlove with you..all over again..a balance is required..
How old you both are..and general events that happen for people at certain ages..will also be applicable..as to potential manifestations of the transit.
All in all, humans can only do so much..and the universe decides the rest. So let go and let god, so to speak. Trust the process..as things are usually a lot worse in our minds when conjuring up potential future scenarios..when it just might not be that bad..??
Thank you Amy for your reply and pep talk. I realize I mistakenly wrote his Pluto was crossing his Ascendent, when really it is crossing his Descendant. Wait, is Mercury retrograde? Lol. So I think much of what you wrote would still apply to some extent. Especially the part about letting go. Good advice.
No worries Karen ??✨?
I made it! 🙂
https://elsaelsa.com/astrology/pluto-transits-my-12th-house-conjuncts-my-ascendant-enters-my-1st/
That sounds terrifying Elsa. This is why I have so much fear of the next 6 months.
Anybody transiting Pluto un 4th still Alive??? Just survived on the Nadir-MC axis…changed job, still haven’t moved but I wish I could, muy father health deteriorating so fast plague of insects at home…can anyone tell me if this transit means 20 years moving and moving???? Read you find the right place to live after It is over, I think won’t be able to stand that for so long…
I am sorry you’re suffering. It’s gruesome. 🙁
And no. I will not be 20 years. Hang in there, Lou!
Anyone with asc on Capricorn 28, pluto crossing 3 rd times? I am afraid of the 3 rd one in end of September-beginning of October…
Got it square…I´m also terrified…
So what happened, how did it go for you??
My son had exactly the same, as his asc is also 28 Capricorn. I was a bit anxious about it. But no big drama, no death, no huge things happened. I think a lot happened inside, he got a more mature and responsible person.
Pluto is crossing 2023 also at 28 deg
The last pass of an outer planet is resolution. 1st pass = crisis or challenge, retrograde pass = realization. Whatever was supposed to be is mostly complete at this point so try not to worry and figure out what you learned since the first pass and integrate that understanding into your persona.
I stopped painting when Pluto opposed my MC n began more astrology.
Had no creative ability.
Enjoyed politics n USA n AUSTRALIA elections.
Hi,
I am still alive and happen to have Pluto in the 4th (one degree off exact) opposition MC..Mercury is also conjunct my MC and Moon, Pluto and Uranus all conjunct in the 4th house.
All I can say..is what does not kill you..only makes you stronger!!.. haha
Pluto in this position gives tremendous internal strength..when all others fall – you will still be standing!..
The effects in my life have given a tremendous drive to achieve something in my career. After the last five years of adjusting to Pluto entering my seventh house by transit..finally the phoenix has arisen from the ashes..as always happens with any Pluto transit.
Pluto being akin to transformation, resurrection, ruled by Hedes in Greek mythology. There is always a breakdown in whichever house Pluto transits, before the house is transformed and strengthened.
In a nutshell, everything happens for a reason, even if we do not understand why at the time. “Trust the process”.
I have been trying to get work in my profession of law..knockback after knockback for four years..then finally a foot in the door, as well as a forced move back in with my parents which I dreaded..but if it had not have happened, I would not have completed my Masters of Family Law..and ended up moving to my favourite area, after landing a job in law, and then moving back out of my parents place.
Even better, I have now amazingly landed another role that pays twice as much as the over 40 interview knockbacks I had over the last few years.
I now see that it happened, because I was meant to move to my dream area and land a job that pays twice as much and trumps them all in status in society..being a Government Solicitor now!..wow!!..who would have thought!!.. haha
Hang in there! There is always a light at the end of the tunnel….🙏💫
If only I didn’t hace a Sade Sati I would be more optimistic. Glad to hear you’re doing well
You will be okay Lou. Trust the process. Let go and let God. 🙏
That I Hope. Thank you
Take care Lou 🙏💫
Hi Elsa. Your article caught my attention, “For example, when Pluto crossed my midheaven, my life took such a turn! I had to live underground for close to ten years. Me! A social, outspoken person.
Prior to this transit, I’d always lived in the light.” because I looked at a dozen websites on Pluto transiting the midheaven and none of them resonated like yours. The first time Pluto conjuncted my midheaven in my relocation chart was on 12th February, 2019, 12 days after moving to the suburbs for the first time in my life. I lived in the city for 31 years. I feel like my life is so dead out here, really feels like I am living in a cave, sort of feels like it’s forced by unforeseen energies. I have been feeling so stuck here and for a few months now, I have been planning on moving next year and now after reading your blog…I feel even more compelled to move because I really feel like my life will continue to die where I am living as long as I don’t get out of here! Any tips on surviving this incredibly isolating time?
I’d love to move to the suburbs, forest, wherever quieto place where any human can be found. And i’m in the city surrounded by criminals un a horrible área, I feel soooo trapped.
I will have a transit Pluto conjunct MH when Pluto reaches 1 degree Aquarius. I’m not sure what this is going to do. Pluto in high degrees in 9th conjuncted Chiron and squared Moon and Neptune. I lost my son and my mother. Just terrible. I’m retired, so no career…not sure how to interpret what Pluto in 10th will bring. It will eventually square my 4 Scorpio planets in 6th (Mercury 10, Saturn 14, Venus 18, and if I live long enough…Sun 29 – all in 6th house except Sun in 7th). Neptune 26 and moon20 in Libra will get Pluto trines, also located in 6th. Natal Pluto Leo in 4th for the opposition and Asc at 24 Taurus. Hey that makes a grand square…won’t that be fun! I guess saved the best for last .

Rehaos, Are these a list of your experiences, or something from a book?
It’s important to keep in mind that Pluto is not a malefic but rather is neutral in nature.Its how we react to these transits,or more importantly the arcs, that determines our perception of events. Being now 66 I have experienced numerous so called hard aspects to both the 1st and 4th cusps as well as hard aspects to the rulers of all of the angles. Although there may have been a few annoying events I would say that most of these transits were positive, whether during duration or outcome. Remember, Pluto creates challenges but also gives power.Using that power wisely tends to promote a better outcome
In the big picture though it probably depends on the nature of the natal chart and the overall condition of the ruler of each angle as to what happens. That being said, letting go and using the power of pluto to focus on positive change will likely yield a better outcome. Even so, it is quite understandable how one can feel overwhelmed in the midst….just have a plan and keep focused on the horizon and this time will pass.
Thank you for your insightful info.
This is great advice! 🙂
Very well said.
I experienced kind of the same. But for me Plutonian energy is well known with pluto in my 1st house conj with Uranus. I like those energies, i can fly with them.
I know nothing about astrology but sought one out to try and understand the hell I’m going through and she told me Jupiter is transiting my IC which is my 4th house. I don’t know what that means. Chiron in the 6th in Aries and my solar arc has Saturn sitting on the asc… and Neptune just off the ic..I would love to understand what this all means. Do you read charts can you message me somehow on here?
Agree…good placement and aspects to Pluto help in dealing with these energies. As for me, Sun at 0.02 Sc conjunct Neptune in the first house in an almost partile sextile, and in mutual reception, to Pluto in 11th at 29.58 leo. Saturn squares that pluto from the 2nd but is conjunct the north node which would tend to promote the the more positive expressions of Saturn.
So, taking the above as an example, the natal chart will be suggestive of the overall vibe and reaction to each planet or point that is being aspected. I have had my share of challenges during this lifetime but overall Pluto has been good to me ( and even Saturn – mostly, lol).
I hope that others may persevere during these seemingly difficult transits and be able to say the same once the challenge has passed. Claim your power and master that challenge.
I just went thru transiting Pluto square my Ascendant and oppose my Mars. It was awful experience. I felt that some people were avoiding me some were agressive towards me especially males. Anything i was doing it was always everyone against me. It very hard but I believe I didn’t break because at the same time Pluto was sextile my Sun. Maybe it helped to me to handle everything.
Also in my natal chart I have Pluto quintile Midheaven but I have no clue what that’s mean.
Same here. And with Pluto transiting 4th, my dad is dying in hospital, an ictus. Saturn opposite venus. I also had car accident and no car anymore. Don’t know if I will be able to survive this year. Awful!!!
Pluto will be transiting my IC, Sun (aquarius 1 degree) and Moon (aquarius 2 degree) for the next while starting March 2023. It will also be squaring my natal pluto (1st house scorpio 4 degree). haha Pluto has also been transiting my natal Jupiter(Capricorn 26 degree) the past several years! I am trying to prepare myself! Im def a little scared but also excited. any insights or loving perspectives are welcome! Will i move? will i die? LOL. hoping to flow like water and not fight what comes and trust the cosmic upgrade, but still, often easier said than done.
From what you wrote, you seem to have pluto square sun and moon natally, and assuming early scorpio/ late libra ascendant you may also have a pluto conjunction to that point. Given the highly plutonian nature of your natal chart, you should be able to deal with whatever comes your way and manage successfully.
With IC and 4th house involved you should expect possible issues with parents, home or family. At pluto = 28Ca the squares are already activated so the process is already in motion.
And also, btw, pluto conjunct jupiter is not a bad aspect, unless the jupiter is badly afflicted. The pluto square pluto aspect is generation and should not be felt all that personally.
Finally, moves are more indicated by Uranus. That being said, check Ur transits to 4th house ruler (traditionally, Saturn) or Ur in solar return 4th for a possible move.
All the Best…..
Thanks so much Bob! Super intuitive and insightful. Def gonna look to Uranus for clues now. And yes I’m 26 degree Libra rising so Pluto is in a loose out of sign conjunction with my ASC. Also have south node and Saturn in Scorpio. Just call me Plutonia! LOL 🤣😆🖖🏼🙏🏽❣️
Oh WOW Uranus will be approaching my True Node in Taurus 25 degree (8th house) around this time as well!
That Uranus on the node will also be opposition your natal 4th house ruler, Saturn. A move is possible. There is also an eclipse at 29 Ar in April. That squares your sun and moon as well as transiting pluto. Eclipse is in 7th so partnerships or documents may be a catalyst that brings up the pluto themes.
Oh wow. Genius. Def marking that down on ye ole calendar to watch for 💕 Bob,you seem so knowledgeable…any astrology books or schools or tools you recommend? I’ve been studying for years and I love it so much and there is always so much more to learn. Thanks again. Sending blessings through the Ethers 🖖🏼🥰
My mother was an Astrologer and I first learned concepts as a teen. After 50 years though, I remain a student.
Just to round out the eclipse topic, events are often triggered by Mars which, in this case, will square the eclipse point mid May. Pluto will then square that same point mid June.
I only know these things as I am affected personally since my sun is 29 Li,in square/ opposition to transit pluto and the eclipse point. So we will both see what happens….
Has anyone experienced Pluto in opposition to your natal moon? I have Pluto transiting my first house that will shortly start to oppose my natal moon in the 7th. I have not long (past few years) had Pluto cross my ascendant and I’m pretty well over the years of turmoil that brought. Really freaking out a little. Thanks
Interpretations of transits are always house dependant, so events and outcomes will differ accordingly.
As an example, I had pluto opp moon Sag to Gem back around 2003. Pluto also squared Mars in the 5th. Mars rules 2nd house. Moon rules 10th.
The first notable event was that my son (ruled by 5th)was diagnosed with diabetes (10th house rules health of son). As a result, it cost a lot of money (Mars, ruler of second ) to address my sons health (Moon – ruler of 10th). Moon, situated in 9th = losses due to sons health. Mars, situated in 5th = money spent on children.
Second notable event – I was given power at work (moon rules 10th) but without direct authority ( moon in 9th – 12th from 10th ). Persevering through this period, I was given full authority the following year when Saturn conjuncted the Midheaven. So again, house dependent. That how these things work, look to the house rulers for clues.
Thank you. So what house was Pluto in when it opposed your moon?
Pluto was in the 3rd house but no notable events connected to that house occured. All memorable circumstances seemed to focus on the planets aspected, the houses where they were located and the houses that the planets ruled in the natal chart.
Two other examples of this ….when transit pluto in 1st squared 5th house ruler in 10th, my son (5th)
was born and my social status (10th) changed but the first house did not show noticable events. Years later, when transit pluto in 4th squared natal mercury to 1st, I took initiative (1st house) into certain 9th and 12th house matters – both houses ruled by mercury but again, no events in the 4th during that aspect orb. I know that this contradicts traditional thought regarding transits passing through houses but that’s what happened. The only time pluto directly affected the house that it transited is when it made a conjunction but still the house ruled by the conjuncted planet was activated as well.
Ok. So Pluto is transiting my first. It is currently opposing Saturn in cancer in my 7th. The ruler of Saturn is my ascendant. So in reality I should be feeling my ascendant (body/self) activated? In a few months Pluto will commence opposing my natal moon in Leo (located 7th house). The ruler of the moon is the cusp of my 7th house (cancer) so I should look to the ruler of my 7th house? So my relationships could be effected? Also, Pluto will be in a few degree orb of trining my mercury in the 9th house as the Pluto moon opposition takes place (I think).
Given that Saturn and Moon rule the 1st and 7th I would suggest that themes would revolve around that axis, notably relationships and business associations. The trine aspect should be supportive as you navigate the opposition, which will bring awareness or confrontation concerning 7th house matters and how you (1st) contribute to the dynamics.
Thank you Bob. Much appreciate 😊
So I’m extremely scarred because my natal Pluto now currently in the 4th house which is in my 1st house in Scorpio natal(but I’m acs libra) is now opposition my midheaven which is natal in my 9th house in cancer yup freaking out after the last whole decade of suffering I had this past years has been unbearable I got divorced I lost 2 babies I lost my home and pretty much homeless and all off that before Pluto now transiting my 4th house oppositioning my midheaven which started just a week ago so more suffering I should expect ??????
Nella, I’m so sorry for what you’re going through. It sound staggering. It’s possible you have seen your lowest low. Hang in there!
Thank you
I’m at my lowest but I’m scared that it might get even worse because this transit on pluto in the 4th house opposition my midheaven
As it’s said always it can get even worse that’s why I’m scared because I don’t know what to expect from this transit
All the best
Hi Nella,
I have Pluto opposition MC in my natal chart..
The transit is nothing to be scared of, as essentially in the end it will only make you stronger. Trust in the universe, and trust the process.
Everything in our life happens for a reason..it’s getting the “gift” that is given – learning from the situation and connecting the dots on our life journey as we move along our destined path..to become who we are meant to become.
All will be okay. Have faith that a higher energy is always at work. 🙏
Dear Nella
I send you best wishes and love. I do wish you an inner transformation leading to having your own place and getting in contact with power from your roots related to the fathers side (Pluto/IC/4h)
Thank you so much for your love and understanding.
Is a matter of fact my father’s house I lost last year because of my father it self he had debt and he had to sell our own house where we lived and now he is homeless as well as me and his family is with the most evil people I know they don’t care unless they have something to take away from you.
I don’t have communication with any of my fathers family since my grandparents are unfortunately dead.
And now I’m just so scared what this transit will do to me
Sending love and wishes for all the best for you
Keep in mind that although pluto may be have been exact to your IC last week, it has been in orb of that point for about a year now. With that in mind, the earlier events may be related to this transit. Pluto also squared your ascendant, roughly, so that could explain divorce. Take heart that the worse is probably over as there is only one more pass of pluto to 28 Ca. At that time you will look back and realize that the lessons learned from the transit are complete.
Thank you for your explanation I didn’t knew that close in the orb pluto without being exact can be so influential and so devastating making misery all around someone’s life.
Can you please tell me when is that final pass off pluto?
I’m trying to prepare my self mentally for this year ahead of me since I live and gonna live with this transit pluto in the 4th oppositions my midheaven in cancer but I just can’t in the conditions where my life is now everything is extremely bad and up in the air and it’s hard to possibly prepare for something even harder mentally.
Things are always worse in our mind, than what actually happens nine times out of ten. Just have faith and trust the process Nella – what will be will be. 🙏
Hi Nella,
I saw this transit coming up for my daughter (and coming up for my other daughter) in next few months. I was frightened as to what would come up. As Pluto crossed the first time she left a 7 year relationship. She was just about to move into her newly built dream house. I was shocked and upset for her as she had worked very hard for her dream. I supported her as she wasn’t happy. Then it went over again and she come out to be gay (change at a deep level). I was shocked yet supportive. She’s been pretty remote in her new life but just giving her the space and I know we will organically come back together when she’s more relaxed in herself (which after a year is happening). On my behalf (as a mother) it’s definitely been from the outset concerned me thinking what the hell is going to happen to my girl but all over it was definitely a change but not something that took anything major away. She’s just showing up as her true self 😊
Yes – I agree. The transit is going backwards and forwards over the IC / MC transit for at least a year before it goes exact.
Pluto transits are symbolic of the phoenix rising from the ashes – transformation, in this case from the inner most depths of your core. 🙏
That explains a lot for the past year at list.
I really want to be Phoenix rising from the ashes but now I really don’t have anything to hold on to and help rise not in my self not around me.
I’m just trying to prepare somehow mentally for the current year living with this transit so it doesn’t do even more damage to me at list mentally and emotionally that’s what I’m trying now.
All the best to you.
Just imagine your mind is like a CD player. You can always take that one out and play a different CD. Everything comes down to perspective. The power is within you, to change the way you view the situation.
Pluto is where we all have problems that nobody else can help us with. But it’s also where we hold power. Rear it up to consciousness to be resolved.
Direct all that energy into creating a future you wish to have.
Take care. Trust in the process. 🙏
Since I’ve been buying digital reports, I have been beset by fear. Uranus opp ASC (scorpio), Saturn quincunx pluto, Pluto opp sun (cancer) transiting the 2nd house, Pluto Conjunct venus, and Pluto opp ASC all coming within a 6 month period. I feel constant fear, terror in fact, am exhausted and have no will.I have never experienced such fear in my entire life , at least in such a constant way.
Any reassurance or help would be greatly appreciated.
It sounds like you could use a consultation. If the cost is a problem, you can also post your chart in the forum along with your question and hopefully someone will help. 🙂

Thanks Elsa. Although I’ve always had just about enough to get by because of the natal aspect listed below, I have rarely ever had spare money beyond the basics. I would love a monthly reading otherwise.
Jupiter Trine Saturn Orb: 06°40′
You have in this aspect the best possible insurance against want and poverty for no matter how bad things may be, you always seem to get what you need. When everyone else is broke you can fish a dollar out of acme place. In a similar way, when you’re broke, someone or some thing will come to your rescue. Even in an otherwise weak horoscope this aspect is so strong that it takes the edge from the worst cuts of life, holding up your head and your fortunes, and giving you, in varying degrees, dignity and security which by careful and conservative expenditures you can make into wealth. You are an excellent manager of funds and can stretch a dollar to the limit without being penurious or petty.
Given all those oppositions, and descendant involvement, it seems that the transits will play out as related to relationships and/ or a new awareness as related to the houses ruled by the planets involved.
While pluto can cause fear at the onset it also grants power. Additionally,pluto conjunct venus is generally an excellent aspect, expect money or an intense new relationship.
Finally, dont let yourself get worked up over digital reports. They are highly generalized and imo, misleading or even worthless.
The key to managing pluto transits is to just go with the flow and take power when/ where to can. At 67, I have experienced numerous so called bad transits but life goes on and all is well….btw, I currently have pluto square sun. While there has been some challenges it’s not as awful as interpretations may suggest.
Thanks for the reassurance Bob. its actually Pluto Qucnx Venus, which sounds less friendly.
Can anyone explain why it says this about pluto opposite sun(cancer) transit please?
Look for Leo(moon) in your natal chart, as the Sun rules Leo, and this is an area of life that will be directly affected by the transit (in addition to the house where the transit actually takes place).
Hi Ziggy. I’m not a professional astrologer, but have been interested in astrology for 25 years and do the odd chart for friends (I started a couple of years ago). Each chart is a quiet symphony. Some are extremely complicated, others are surprisingly simple. Look, I have some horrendous aspects, but I can assure you, together with those challenges comes great wisdom, and consider, along with those challenges there will be considerable positives. I have Pluto in opposition with Venus (hello,stalkers and jealousy!), Uranus in opposition to my sun, and plenty more spiky things!Oh, and just lived through Pluto transiting my descendant. Yes I stand out from the crowd, whether I want to or not. Life isn’t easy, but it’s interesting 😉 In the last years I’ve had setback after setback, been dumped, lost my home, bla bla. One thing you might do is look for your Jupiter, where is it located in your chart and what aspects does it make? I can assure you, astrology has helped me a lot in understanding who I am and why I seem to attract hell on earth at times! But there’s no reason to fear – enjoy the unique person you are and all the best.
Hello Holls, and thank you for your wisdom. As a newbie to astrology, I fear looking ahead, especially as I rarely, if ever, experience the supposedly strong, favourable transits, yet always experience the negative ones.
Life has never been easy or particularly joyful, and it has been grueling on the whole. With all these transits forthcoming, many of which (mars conjunct pluto, saturn qunincunx pluto, Uranus opp asc scorpio), according to some classic texts, indicate violence, it is understandable why I may be worried.
How do i work out if the forthcoming Saturn Qunincunx Pluto is waxing or waning anyone please?
astro has two options for equal houses system. equal, and equal(midheaven). do you use the first or the second?
Equal!
Pluto crossed over my DSC (28 Libra) and MC (15 Cap) so far, and both times I set myself free from toxic environments, jobs and friends that no longer fit into my life.
Pluto to My Ascendant of SAg.. set me free. Pluto in scorpio in my twelfth house was an imprisonment.
Pluto is all over me for the foreseeable future; I am not someone to give up, but this energy does not come naturally to me, and – hoo boy. I am a good fighter, and I guess I am just going to have to continue to be that. I personally think, though we will make steps in the right direction with Pluto in Aquarius; I am not sure I’ll still be alive to see the end result. I am not convinced that the intervening time will be a whole lot of fun for many, we have a ways to go. Would love to be wrong.
I thought to myself, that I survived Pluto opposite my Moon in 1987-88 as a 12 years old . Pluto was later opposing my large stellum, and finally conjunct my Mc and opposing the Sun. SO RIght now I will survive and change and thrive when it hits my Asc at 5 Aqua.
This 15 years long, Pluto transit in 1988-2000 had changed me, my religion, started formal meditation, changed diet, I approached spirituality and I chose very specific hard core plutonic career.
Today after long way through my 12th house I am getting out of seclusion, suffering, isolation etc. Now it is time for to get some AIR.
