Navigating Pluto Transits: Embrace Transformation and Uncover Your Potential

As I am currently navigating a Pluto transit tightly squaring my Sun since the beginning of this year, I want to share with you just how transformative and impactful this transit can be.


While I believe I will emerge as a different person once this transit has run its course, the journey through it is marked by a profound and often painful identity crisis.


In this blog, I aim to shed light on the challenges and growth opportunities that come with such a powerful astrological event.

Pluto transits are often described as intense, transformative periods that can bring about profound changes in our lives. As daunting as they may seem, these transits offer invaluable opportunities for personal growth and self-discovery.


In this post, I'll explore what happens during Pluto transits and provide practical strategies to navigate these challenging times effectively.


How to Understand better Pluto Transits?


Pluto, the planet of transformation, power, and rebirth, moves slowly through the zodiac, spending anywhere from 14 to 30 years in each sign. This slow movement means that Pluto transits are rare but impactful, often lasting between 12 months to two years.

During a Pluto transit, you may experience significant shifts in the areas of life governed by the natal planet or house being transited.


Let's Define the Nature of Pluto Transits


Pluto transits can feel like a journey into the underworld, where you confront your deepest fears, hidden desires, and unresolved issues.

These periods are characterized by themes of power, control, and transformation. You might feel as though your life is being turned inside out, but this process is essential for uncovering your true potential and emerging stronger than before.




What are the Key Themes of Pluto Transits


  1. Transformation and Rebirth: Pluto transits often signify the end of one phase and the beginning of another. This transformation can be uncomfortable, but it is necessary for growth. Embrace the changes and trust that they are leading you to a better version of yourself.

  2. Power and Control: Issues related to power dynamics and control are common during Pluto transits. You may find yourself in situations where you need to reclaim your power or navigate power struggles with others. Use this time to assert your boundaries and stand up for yourself.

  3. Truth and Honesty: Pluto transits demand honesty, both with yourself and others. This is a time to confront uncomfortable truths and let go of anything that no longer serves you. Embrace the process of shedding old layers to reveal your authentic self.

  4. Healing and Release: Deep emotional healing is a hallmark of Pluto transits. You may need to revisit past wounds and traumas to release them fully. Engage in therapeutic practices that support your healing journey, such as counseling, journaling, or energy work.

Let's Practice with Some Examples of Pluto Transit


Toni Morrison’s Pluto Transits





Celebrated American writer Toni Morrison experienced significant Pluto transits that marked pivotal moments in her career. During Pluto’s square to her Venus in 1976-1977, she published her critically acclaimed novel “Song of Solomon,” which brought her national recognition. A decade later, Pluto’s square to her Mercury coincided with the publication of “Beloved,” earning her the Pulitzer Prize. These transits highlighted her creative potential and brought her profound professional success.


Kamala Harris’s Pluto Transits





Kamala Harris, the Vice President of the United States, is currently experiencing a significant Pluto transit. Pluto is squaring her natal Mercury, which is positioned at one degree of Scorpio. This transit is expected to span from February 2024 to December 2025, with multiple exact hits during this period.

Mercury in Harris’s chart rules her first house of self and fourth house of home and family. This suggests that the Pluto transit will bring transformative changes to her personal identity and family dynamics. As Pluto squares her Mercury, Harris may find herself grappling with issues of power and control, both in her public role and private life. This period could also bring to light hidden information or motivations, compelling her to navigate complex power dynamics and assert her influence more effectively.


In a nutshell...


Pluto transits, while intense and often uncomfortable, are powerful catalysts for transformation. By embracing the process, seeking support, and practicing self-care, you can navigate these periods with resilience and grace.


Remember, the challenges you face during a Pluto transit are opportunities to uncover your true potential and emerge stronger than ever before.


Take care,

Marie
