Pluto is a tricky planet. Anytime you are having a Pluto transit, you will surely have an experience that breaks open your mind, helps you see what’s inside, and changes it if you dare.
You might not like what you see, and you may even try to hide from it, but by the end of this cycle, you are changed by it and have an opportunity to be empowered.
In this blog, I want to remind you that you can get through this Plutonian time and offer some insight about Pluto.
Reading Steven Forrest’s book reignited my reverence for the Pluto archetype and deepened my understanding of this energy’s power.
It is not something you want to ignore or fumble with.
Maybe you’re struggling and dealing with a major crisis like a death, betrayal, or financial loss.
Perhaps you are dealing with depression or feel a vague feeling of overall purposelessness. If you feel any of this, you may be going through a Pluto transit.
Why Paying Attention to Pluto Transits Is Important
It is important to pay close attention to any betrayal, crisis, or loss showing itself now because it can lead to your liberation and rise.
You do not have to succumb to the darkness and allow it to devour you and all you love.
Although this time of your life can be tough, it can give you leverage and add strength to improve the condition of your mind and life.
“To achieve heaven, we must pass through hell. To reach our own fullest potential, we must face our woundedness. To reach glory, we must suffer humiliation. Ashes lie on the road to the throne.” – The Book of Pluto, Steven Forrest.
During a Pluto transit, when Pluto comes into contact with a planet or angles in your birth chart, you are being tested.
What has been hidden deep in your subconscious is now ready to bubble up.
You are now safe enough to face what has happened to you and process it to improve your life.
However, this could be disturbing because you were not expecting this to come up, and now you have to come to terms with your deepest truth.
This feeling can be overwhelming, especially when you have to pay bills and live a regular life.
But whatever you are going through, you can alchemize your experience and create deep meaning for yourself to improve your life and situation.
That is the magick of a Pluto transit. You do not have to be overpowered by the powers that be, but be empowered by them.
What is Pluto’s Energy in Astrology?
In astrology, Pluto is the planet that covers all things occult, hidden, dark, and the subconscious mind.
It could also represent resentments, losses, power and power struggles, secrets, and having to face your truth to liberate yourself.
Merging with the energy of Pluto or surrendering to your Pluto transit could be terrifying.
You might feel like you won’t make it out alive.
But let me tell you, the parts of yourself that are no longer serving you will pass and be released, so yes, a part of you will die.
But you, your soul and expression, can be born anew. Pluto energy is incredible that way.
