Pluto Moves into Aquarius, 2024
Pluto, often associated with Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, is transitioning from the practical and responsible Capricorn to embrace characteristics of the Revolutionary – a defender of people's Rights and Liberties, and an Innovator. The last time Pluto assumed this attitude in America was 246 years ago, from 1778 to 1798, a period marked by global conflicts, colonization, revolutions, and fights for individual freedom.
Pluto symbolizes the archetype of Power, a transformational force seeking Self-Respect. It represents the part of us that rejects victimization, urging us to stand in the self-evident truth that all are created equal. However, Pluto's teachings often encompass negative aspects of Power, such as abuse and domination. Using Power for the greater good and avoiding harm requires heightened awareness and wisdom.
Collectively, we are transitioning from Pluto's presence in Capricorn, the sign associated with Big Business, Organizations, and Structures. Pluto entered Capricorn in 2008, coinciding with the global economic meltdown. This period exposed the deceitful dealings of Big Business, followed by a worldwide pandemic revealing financial and healthcare inequities. Pluto, acting like a scalpel, brings global issues into conscious awareness, emphasizing the pursuit of truth.
On an individual level, Pluto's influence is felt based on the placement of Aquarius in one's natal astrological chart. Aquarius signifies a perspective of brotherhood, emphasizing unity and common ground. As Pluto traverses Aquarius over the next 20 years, we anticipate a revolutionary response to oppression, with people demanding equality and respect, whether at a global or personal community level.
Aquarius is also linked to technology and inventions benefiting humanity. Pluto in Aquarius foretells a surge in the desire for like-minded individuals to collaborate on shared goals. Expectations include weather events, earthquakes, wars, or armed revolutions, alongside groundbreaking inventions and advancements in global and personal awareness. The common thread is Pluto's persistent reminder that we are all interconnected in this journey.
