Venus will conjunct Pluto in Capricorn on December 11th and again on Christmas, 2021.
Here are some keywords for this combination:
- The casting couch.
- Backroom deals by power brokers.
- A gay politician with a beard (wife).
- A kept woman.
- A deal with the devil.
- BDSM
- A father raping his daughter.
- Kiss of death.
- Till death do us part.
- Vendetta against a lover
- Damaged reputation
As you can see, this is all about love and taboo, the shadow side of relationships, power struggles and such.
It’s also about dumping your lover (or being dumped). Under aspects like this, these “corpses” come back into your life. Search the site for much more on that.
With this conjunction in Capricorn, you can also consider “karma” to be featured here. You act like a jerk to someone and it comes back around. This is very common!
I know this is daunting! This conjunction hits my chart hard so I’m personally on bone-deep alert!
Here’s the old post. You an also click tags. There is a lot content on this site of this ilk. Just click the tags…
This is my favorite tune for times like this. I think it’s funny which is good for the current planets in Sagittarius. Morbid, yes. But funny, and we need more of this!
The conjunction is coming together, now.
Please note – I wrote this for the January, 2021 conjunction. This post has been updated.
What’s your feeling about Venus conjunct Pluto in Capricorn?
I had 18 months of transiting Pluto conjunct natal Venus in Scorpio (3 hits) in my early 30’s and honestly was not sure I would survive its intensity. It gave me a window into what gets called madness in people. A lot of professional and parental responsibility on my shoulders (and a natal fixed Grand Cross) kept me grounded till it passed. Whew!
made me laugh …”window into what gets called maddness in people” can you elaborate?!!
LOVED the Zombie Jamboree video. T Pluto just conjuncted my natal 12th house Capricorn Venus 23′ and I’m still processing. What stands out is I’ve given away or discarded nearly all of my physical possessions. Downsized; sold a house to move into a 1 bedroom condo. Kind of liberating I am feeling.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ve been doing estate planning lately. Sounds like a good time to plan (Capricorn) what will happen to my money (Venus) after death (Pluto). Maybe I should try to sign the papers on the full Moon. It will be in my 4th house of family.
I’d love to see this broken down by house placement. My Pluto/Venus is in the eighth house. Sounds daunting.
Triangulated relationships. Taboo relationships. Irresistible relationships. Power struggles in relationships.
Oh please no…
This is what that day of the Full Moon was already going to look like for me:
Transit Full Moon EXACTLY conjunct my natal South Node in the 12th House
(And thus the Sun conjunct my North Node exactly.)
Meanwhile, transit Venus and transit Pluto on the same day are EXACTLY conjunct my natal SATURN.
(And trine my natal Moon.)
I can’t do this again. I’m all alone out here. I barely made it through last year when Pluto-Saturn conjuncted my natal Saturn. Been feeling something similar creeping in. I CAN’T DO IT… T.T
Outside of the nodes, I have nearly exactly the same thing happening. My natal Saturn 23 cap, trine moon in Virgo at 24.I feel awful. And very alone. I figure maybe deep transformation of dark stuff. Very uncomfortable. Got a reading from Elsa. Very helpful.
Thank you!
I’ve done Elsa’s yearly report before and found it very useful, but I’ve been jobless since 2020 and am barely surviving right now. Can barely afford a meal a day so definitely not anything but the bare essentials. Moon in Virgo here, too. <3 I really am alone. My biggest fear is that if something happens to me, no one will even know. Can’t keep going like this…
(((((Alex)))))
?
It’s a hug. I’m sending you one as well.
Please visit food banks, and sign up for food stamps. It helped me when I got Covid
I’m glad to hear you’ve recovered! The pandemic has been such a scary time on top of everything else. 🙁
I did get help with food from an NGO earlier last year when I was almost homeless because of the job situation. I hesitate to bother them again because I think they really did see it as a bother. The other thing is, I also live in a foreign country as a foreigner, so there are many things I’m neither eligible for nor understand. I don’t think I’m eligible for anything like food stamps here, unfortunately.
Alex, Go bother NGOs. They shouldn’t be there if they aren’t helping people. That’s Virgo Sun, Venus, Mercury here) don’t want to bother people. Sometimes that is lesson…learning to get what you need when others don’t think they should respond. At least that happened to me.
Agree with Leila. Ask for help at a church. Try a Catholic church. There is almost always someone there to pick up the phone.
Pluto now conjunct natal Mars, and the dopplegangers keep appearing in my life–some of them quite welcome!
“dopplegangers”? sounds interesting but I’m not following?
Thank goodness this has already gone over my Venus. Though feeling the ramifications still it has been a soul searching time for love and self acceptance. I also am having a Venus return soon. Venus being in Capricorn, it roses and thorns so far but hoping to bloom more roses.
This is will happen in my 4th house. The only planet I have in cardinal is Jupiter in Aries 21’20”. I’m not sure if that considered close enough or not. I guess we’ll see. Since Pluto is in my natal 2nd House, whenever I see a conjunction, it’s affected my self-esteem and how I earn money. <—So it'll probably be more of that.
This hits my chart hard too. Especially my 10th. There will be five planets there.
I’m considering leaving the job I’m currently at (been here four weeks) ’cause I’m not learning shit and not doing shit. I’m supposed to be a lot further along in my training. No one seems interested in training me.
I got a lead from a friend who worked at a large vet hospital. I’d work four 10 hour days, but she said they really invested in training her. The hospital already contacted me. So the ongoing since mid 2019 jobs saga continues…
Here it is almost a year after I wrote this. I left that job a couple of days after I posted. Got another one that lasted six months. I thought it would work out, but the head vet tech left and the VMD was nuts. (Nine people left the clinic between January and September.)
After realizing that I had to leave – again – I job hunted, got a few offers, and landed one I liked at the end of September. It’s going well and I’ve become a lot more confident. They trust me to get it right without micromanaging me. That was a big issue at other clinics (Capricorn! How many planets rolled through there in the past couple of years?). I hope I finally got it right.
This will be tough for me too.I dont what to expect but seems like nit good at all.My Ascendant in Leo is @ 24 inconjucting the conjuction and My Natal Venus is in Libra @ 24 too Squaring the conjuction….All i can see is darkness.The full moon in Leo will semi sextile my sun and moon in virgo and trine natal Chiron in Aries.
This is in my 6th house where my Sun, Mercury, Jupiter, Neptune reside. Since it’s not a relationship house, any insights on themes with the Venus-Pluto conjunction taking place here? Greatly appreciated! ?
It’s my 6th as well. I am assuming something to do with transforming beauty. Or transforming how you spend money in daily activities or in keeping up with your health.
BDSM? lol. Nice. *BoomCheekaWowwWOw!* B-)
Reminds me of a personal ad I saw once, where the person said something like “I want go to the Beach, Discover life together, Smile and Mingle” = BDSM
I have natal Mars at 24 degrees Capricorn in the 2nd house, which will be conjunct this conjunction. I’m all set for something massively disruptive. Hopefully it will be a good disruption.
eak! let us know how that pans out! hope it is a good disruption!!!!
Sure I will 🙂
Belly to belly❤️
I would love to see what happens. I have my rising sign at 20 degrees Capricorn- so this is in my first house and the Leo full moon on my 7th house.
Is an ex coming back? Because I’m single 🙁
(Yes, I’m a piscis).
Lol pisces!!! Let us know!!!
Will 24 degrees compacted by venus/pluto conjuction?
I always used to think those ex-corpses turning up sounded interesting and was a little disappointed that none of mine were sufficiently interested in returning in a zombiefied state. Then we had 2020 and Saturn, Pluto and Jupiter trined the Vertex\North node conjunction in Taurus and sextiled the Venus\Neptune\South Node\Juno conjunction in Scorpio in the composite chart of me and ex from 30 years ago. It taught me plenty but I will never wish for that again. All corpses, please now stay away
I feel somewhat daunted by the prospects of this FM because it conjuncts my 8th House Uranus and squares my 11th house Scorpio Moon. The opposing Uranus (& Mars) in my 5th makes it some kind of a cross pattern. My 1st house Saturn trines the Leo FM.
I think the worst that could happen is sudden death like being murdered.
My Moon in Scorpio really colors my outlook!
So transit pluto sits on my nemesis 10H (within orb of MC). Tr/station/rx venus will be conj that… Tr nemesis is on my neptune 9H… Tr asteroid swindle is also on that pluto… my my… I hope it’s good karma… but that “casting couch” line and that tr swindle worry me a bit…
Tonight I started going to stores to look for Christmas decor and maybe an Advent wreath. (As disconnected to spiritual things as I am right now, the fact that Advent crossed my mind surprised me. I even dug out a devotional for it that I used a few years ago!)
As I walked through the aisles, I was hit by the sheer commercialism of it all. The cheap quality goods from China, the lame-ass corporate Christmas music piping through the speakers, the empty shelves in the holiday sections, the hollow feeling I couldn’t shake.
I don’t know what to do about gift-giving this year. Don’t want to go through the motions and just buy stuff for people. I want it to mean something. Tonight, all that makes me feel joy is the fact that I’m going home to wrap the curio holding my late husband’s lighthouses with festive and classy garlands, as a way to remember him. I’m also trying to find a couple of strings of white LED lights to wrap around the lighthouses. More Venus/Pluto, lol.
Not sure if all this is Pluto/Venus in Capricorn stuff I’m processing or not.
Oh yeah, and I also couldn’t stop thinking about how every minute I was milling around in a store I was risking exposure to Covid. While it’s great that my housemate is out on vacation for a couple of weeks and I can now take my time in stores instead of going straight home to check on her—the constant hidden threat of a potentially lethal disease is floating through my mind.
It does feel different this year. Hollow with a sadness overhead. Just going through the motions……
YEP.
I feel that way too. The whole Xmas ritual feels empty and commercial, like a plastic blow up Santa. People on my list are getting homemade baked goods. At least it will be something real and heartfelt.
Where I see people have put nice lights up outside their houses, I am really appreciating it this year.
It’s nice just to admire the Christmas lights on homes. Here in Aussieland, the local country town newspapers mention which streets are the most lit. Though usually a city dweller, I find myself in country towns over Christmas for work.
I think it is Venus Pluto. Gifts are degraded.
I agree. There is less of everything on store shelves this year.
I’ve bern over buying crap for the sake of for ages!!! My progressed venus isn’t even into virgo yet! Lol! Everyobe saying venus retrograde is making us check in with what we value these days and I’m guessing that’s probably’changed a lot over the last couple of years!
You could cook or bake something? One year I got into making stewed apples with cinnamon etc and I put it in nice storage jars (which the person could re-use) and gave that as a gift. The cooking part is relaxing.
Ouch!,not sure where my reading eyes where
Last year, I think there must be times where I just don’t read the red flags ,the casting couch( trying to respect authority as to secure financial future ) ,father daughter part ,ouch , I can check so many of those boxes I see this came out last year don’t know where my brain was playing this forecast scares me personally overtime I see that I was so trained to be subservient polite kind respectful of those who did never deserve my respect ouch thanks for the forecast
Pluto needs some image rehabilitation here.
It is the other face of Venus. Instead of what we value and wish to attract to ourselves – Pluto describes what we judge in ourselves and wish to eliminate and destroy within. A very objective Uranian self awareness of what Pluto asks of us can be a liberating threshold into previously unknown and positive potentials of Self. There is a potential for good in this Venus Pluto dynamic.
Pluto in Leo for me in the 10 th house exactly square a 7 th house Taurus Moon. I have mentored and tutored a young lady from age 5 to 19 years now – and instead of a father raping his daughter – it is about a father finding his daughter and transferring to her his 10 th house Plutonian lessons as she embarks into the world and into her power…..
I like your refreshing take on Pluto. It took me a while to see that Pluto isn’t just complications, or complicated, but that it’s that power within us (we often ascribe to external events) to go through metamorphosis and emerge stronger. Uranian wisdom forbids me from taking on the role of Pluto’s victim, even when others may perceive me to be.
Perfect! We are Pluto.
We are Pluto. We are stronger than we know we are.
?❤️Don; much better to find a good
Then fear the two headed. Or look back at something that should not have happened looking back does it make it disappear just traces over the lines darker.
I sit with four older men on Saturdays for coffee last Saturday one got so furious at me that I was not vaccinated ! I am fearful of so much ,I’ve been wronged by authorities loved ones and doctors ;He couldn’t listen , his eyes burned through me , I got up and left , all week I just wondered why we are head I really just supported him wasn’t his fear the same as my fear and I’ve come to conclusion that he’s angry because all his smarts all his skills and success of money don’t matter he is just as vulnerable as a boy on the street wondering where next to stay warm. Funny what this germ is bringing out I mean not funny ha ha just funny to learn how you can respect someone or look up to them or want to be like someone who hasn’t the chance of being any different than you puzzling I kind of think the storm has been here all along but we just didn’t have the eyes to see it it’s hitting in the poor and hid in the parts we never looked but we didn’t look at good enough like those stars that pop out of the sky like they were just born, when actually it’s just a more sophisticated microscope or telescope , perhaps the healing is just within us and noticing all and noticing our own weaknesses and what we need to live with.
My brother has a progressed square now and he made a huge deal, big money. My daughter was born on 22 of December so in her Solar return this conjunction is on her IC. We will see how it plays out. I have a square nataly and I Like to make money and spend it. This conjunction will be on My natal north node. Again, we will see but Never boring with Pluto involved.
hopefully whatshisface has run out of ways to stall the divorce.
In 1st house. Hot. Not.
Why is it not hot in the first house? Please give me some details 🙂
Hey, I meant for me, not in general or for everybody. The description of the transit is gnarly. It sounded more dangerous than ‘hot’. Capricorn can repress or confine venus/pluto energy, hence- not hot can be a way of manifestation as well.
I meant to link this today – sorry!

In my 4th, my granddaughter having her marriage party (the legal side is done already end of November) on the 12th December.
They are too young but won’t listen.
18/21 Aries male and Aquarius woman.
Aaaahhh ….we’ll watch over them as good as we can.
I have had an urge to be a “corpse” last two days. I’m doing my best to resist it, tho every bone in my body aches to be a “corpse”.
I saw an abusive ex appear on social media, smiling at a Christmas style chalet gathering with many mutual friends… I hadn’t seen his face in years. I lost my innocence to this man about 5 years ago, and he was highly abusive, yet respected person in social circles. I am growing away from all of these people. And yes, he works in film!
venus at 24 capricorn here… two years ago my longtime ex lover came back into my life. we have been on and off since then. two weeks ago i cut him loose for good. It Was So Empowering! I love him deeply but will not be treated poorly by him anymore. He seems to have gone mildly insane anyway…
Other than that, an old married lover who I had stopped seeing, called me suddenly 6 months ago, told me his wife had somehow found out about us, and was about to call me. I took her call, acted all surprised, parroted the lies he had asked me to, and then texted him to never contact me again.
Recently, I met two men in the same week. one is married and a total sexual deviant and completely turns me on in an obsessive way. I cannot stop thinking about him sexually. I found myself aggressively texting him perverse sexual things earlier today, and worried myself with how sexually aggressive i’m being towards someone who I really do not care about at all. Its a power thing I think.
The other man, I could see a relationship with. But I keep making excuses in my head about why its not going to work out.
What a time to be alive!
Betty White passed away. She had a sun & venus conjunction in capricorn in those degrees. May her soul rest in peace. A woman full of life.
I’m actually experiencing this Pluto retrograde conjunct Natal Venus retrograde 2nd house Capricorn in transit, it began Jan 6 actual and ends September 26, 2022, but I was dumped Christmas 2021 as I was coping with her crisis at the time where she was going to go inpatient for the holidays, she spent Christmas Eve with her Ex and I didn’t want to see her Christmas Day because I woke up alone in a bad mood and had to hear about the Ex first thing, just said I didn’t want to see her today and I got dumped, it’s August 8th, I’ve been through hell over this, apologized, begged pleaded, argued, I’ve been on fire in my heart, all I see and hear is sexual, I’m not having sex at all, my transit report says this is supposed to be an amazing experience but I’m dead inside, I also just suffered Mars conjunct Mars 6th House with North Node Conjunct Uranus, I’m not freaking out anymore and I’m overcoming my lower self as I control the strong urges, I did not want to see my 25 year old daughter during this time as my head wasn’t right, after all these months I’m learning and reaching out because what I’ve learned recently picking up Astrology and wow it explains a lot. I’m worried though I’m becoming a woman hater, it feels every woman I talk to anymore hates men or me, I trust my long term friend she’s a Virgo but we’re not intimate, she knows I became insanely jealous, obsessive and completely crushed. I want to kick Pluto out of my 2nd house, it’ll be over by mid 2025, I’m just sick of it anymore. Next house communication and I’m an aspiring writer, I don’t even want to know what Pluto has in store for me there. I just want to say my heart goes out to all of you suffering a Pluto/Venus conjunction, it can be hell.
