“I’m wondering how I’m going to *transform* as Pluto enters Aquarius…I have the sun and four planets (Saturn, Mercery, Jupiter, Venus) in my natal chart? Feels like a major overhaul is in my stars…
Any insight would be helpful.”
First off, I wouldn’t panic! When a transiting planet conjoins a natal planet, it’s akin to having the energy of the transiting planet, join your team. That doesn’t mean, it’s not disruptive. Pluto in particular can wipe ways of being, right off the map. There will be loss (Pluto) and change (Aquarius), you do not anticipate. I’m suggesting you align with this. Get the core ideas down and apply them.
I’m talking about detaching (Aquarius) from the dead thing (Pluto), even if the dead thing is you! I’ll give you an example.
I was going great guns, in the best shape of my life… when I was struck by.. lupus? How can this happen. One day, I’m working out on a cross-trainer on level 20. A week later, I can’t walk one quarter of a block, without wanting to lie down. Shocking, staggering loss.
I don’t write this to scare you. I’m trying to give you an outside example. How would you handle something like this?
Most likely, the same way I did. I let go of what I used to do and I recreated myself. What possible good does it so to try to live in yesteryear that no longer exists? I feel Aquarius understands this. You may get hit, but the power is right there, for you to use! Reinvent yourself!
Also, if you have a stellium in the sign, don’t psych yourself out. Chances are your planets aren’t stacked on top each other. Pluto moves very slowly. Five degrees between planets gives you years long breaks.
But what if you do have a bunched up, stellium? This is also good, because you’re knocking it all out at once, in short period of time.
You can expect to go through a dark night of the soul at soul, but so? It’s precursor to this: the ultimate result of your… ordeal? Your episode? Your experience?
I’d try not to worry. You’re going on a tour of the underworld and you will be stripped of whatever is stupid, hanging around you. Stupid ideas, stupid people, whatever. If it’s not of real value, it will be burned off as you go through this refining process.
This is the main key. Use it! Step Away From The Corpse!
Do you have a stellium in Aquarius? How’s it going?

I have Aquarius Asc, Sun, Chiron, Moon. Each time Pluto went into Aquarius, family and friends made the transition to the other side. I’m expecting more of the same. Also, I had a root canal each time, too! I have another one scheduled for January as I reached my annual dental max for this year. Also, I’m finally going to go for medical cannabis due to spinal arthritis. It became more painful when a car hit me when I was walking the 2nd time Pluto moved into Aquarius. Elsa warned me about accidents b/c Pluto squared my Mars at 1° Taurus. The 1st time Pluto moved into Aquarius I hit someone after double cataract surgery. It has been a busy time, and I am fortunate I’m able to still work remotely due to my eye surgeries. I also have Pluto trining Jupiter in Libra 1°. I hope to learn how to own my own power. I know I won’t be bored.
I am so looking forward to Pluto moving on from my son’s and sister’s 1 degree Aquarius sun. These last few years had been brutal for them. My progressed Sun is at 4 degrees Aquarius.
I will soon be able to wear a tshirt I Survived Pluto as it transited opposite my 7th house with Merc Jupiter Venus Uranus and SN and on my natal first house mars NN now finishing up in my 28 Cap Chiron.
Am I a new person yes. Are all my relationships dead? Pretty much. Three people deceased, estranged from fam of origin and an adult daughter. Woohoo! In AQ Pluto will square my natal Saturn at 3 Scorpio but I get a break before it opposes my 17 Leo moon and 22 natal Pluto in 8. Yes I had a dark night of the soul. I am completely transformed. I have passion, purpose, and am deeply resourced from within. I agree Elsa. Best to go with the flow.
My husband has 4 in Aquarius: mercury 0, mc 4, sun/venus both 8. All in 8th house. He’s getting older, but while definitely changing and gradually getting frail, he’s utterly stoic, and all health tests good.
I have Leo mercury 9, venus 10, Taurus mc 11, Scorpio moon 15 and do wonder about when Pluto conjuncts his sun/venus and simultaneously opposes my mercury/venus and squares my mc.
