♇︎ Pluto
Power and transformation.
The transformer: power, death-and-rebirth, what is buried and what erupts. A generation per sign.

Pluto stands at 4° Aquarius, moving retrograde. Drag it on the live clock to travel through time.
Current aspects
| Jupiter opposition Pluto | orb 1.3° |
| Uranus trine Pluto | orb 0.2° |
| Neptune sextile Pluto | orb 0.2° |
| Moon opposition Pluto | orb 2.5° |
| Mars trine Pluto | orb 6.9° |
The opposition strings Jupiter and Pluto along one axis, so each tends to be met out in the world, in other people, rather than owned within.
Pluto is the force of transformation: its territory is power, buried things, and rebirth. It gives depth and intensity, it wants something to remake, and its shadow is obsession.
On the clock, Pluto takes from twelve to thirty-one years in a sign on its stretched orbit, close to two and a half centuries for the circuit. It spends five to six months of each year retrograde.
At its best Pluto gives the power to remake yourself from the root; under strain the same force becomes a grip that cannot let go.
