A Pluto transit is one of the most difficult and trying times of your life.

The cycles of life

are clearly seen in astrology. A Pluto transit is generational or personal. A generational
Pluto transit is when a group of people are experiencing the transit at the same time. A
personal transit of Pluto is when Pluto is aspecting one of your personal planets such as
your Sun, Moon or Venus.

A transit of Pluto to Pluto by square or opposition (many people do not live to experience
Pluto opposition) is a generational transit. To know if you are having this transit you need
to know what degree and sign your Pluto is in and where Pluto is now. This information
is found from an astrology chart (yours and current) or look in an ephemeris. When the
planets are 90 degrees apart you are experiencing a Pluto square Pluto transit. Currently
people who are 37 years old are experiencing this transit. Pluto square Pluto demands
letting go and changing. Depending upon what astrological house your Pluto is in and
what house Pluto rules in your astrology chart that added information will tell you what
needs to change.

Pluto often symbolizes situations and circumstances that you have no control over that
interrupts the plan you had for your life. When you learn about Pluto you will hear time
and time again that Pluto is about death, rebirth and transformation. This interruption can
cause much resistance and a bit of an internal temper tantrum. For the current Pluto
square Pluto the theme revolves around something happening that is not fair or equal as
the current square is to the Pluto in Libra generation. As for what is not fair that depends
on where Pluto is in your chart and what houses it rules.

Pluto is in Capricorn busily destroying old ways of doing business. Pluto entered
Capricorn with a bang; the near melt down of the global economy in September 2008 was
the grand entrance. The precursor when Pluto dipped into Capricorn before the retrograde
back to Sagittarius was only a taste of what was to come with the bail out of Bear Stearns
in March 2008. Many of the current generational transit of Pluto square Pluto are
experiencing the ramifications of Pluto in Capricorn.

A transit of Pluto on a personal level is not contingent on any specific age. Pluto
transiting your Sun could happen when you are 8 years old and your parents divorce or
move and your life as you knew it alters, or it can happen at any time. Yet Pluto aspecting
your Sun will always symbolize a time when a situation happens that you reexamine
where you are, what you are doing, and where you want to go. Pluto aspecting your moon
demands you get in touch with your emotional needs. Pluto aspecting your Venus
demands change in that which you love and value. The specifics are found from the
house the planet is in and what house the planet rules. Astrology compatibility between
two people may be terrific yet if you are experiencing a difficult Pluto transit the
relationship can be troubled.

Transits of Pluto are intense, no doubt about that. Fighting or resisting change is the hard
way to move through a Pluto transit. Astrology will help you find the answers to help
evolve towards your authentic self. If you are in the midst of a Pluto transit then there are
several ways you can work with the energy so the transformation is most beneficial.
Begin a journey of self discovery; meditation, astrology, yoga, therapy are just a few
ways of the many positive avenues to use your time wisely during this transit. Seek what
is best for you, let go of the old and allow for a major change in your life.
