As Asi Biliou explains in her article on asibiliou.gr Pluto means change, as in astrology Pluto is considered a symbolically powerful planet that sweeps in its passage, since it has the power to bring us face to face with forces we were unaware of and can change life as we knew it. In fact, the changes it brings are irreversible, since we do not have the ability to return to the previous state - the bridges will have burned completely. As the modern ruler of Scorpio he rules the secrets, the unconscious and generally anything that is in the dark or considered taboo and not discussed. It is a planet whose energy can not be explained logically and we can only approach it experientially, as it forces us to experience experiences that will create unprecedented emotions and change us from within. He will not hesitate to rob us of our comfort, to strike at our most sensitive point and to bring to the surface harsh truths, which we did not want to stare at. We may have to suffer, experience losses and lose what we considered to be acquired and given in our lives, but through this process we will be able to find the inner strength to survive and be reborn from our ashes. This painful but necessary process is the epitome of Pluto.
Retrograde Pluto: Awareness and purification
Since Pluto is the most distant planet in the Solar System, the retrograde journey takes several months. This course started on April 27, 2021 when it was in the 26th degree of Capricorn and remained retrograde until October 6, reaching the 24th degree of Capricorn, thus affecting the impulsive signs, ie Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn of the last ten days or planets close to the fate of these signs.
During this retrograde process we entered the process of re-evaluating our lives, realizing what is toxic to us and must remove it, not only in our interpersonal relationships, but also in situations involving issues of power, unconscious, sex, deeper fears and the need for survival. All this time we have tended to analyze in depth and seek the essence and the truth at all costs. We have clearly seen what goes wrong in our relationships and what hurts us. The retrograde course of Pluto was the ideal time to do an introspection and look for what is happening inside us. To bring to the surface everything that has its roots in the past and does not allow us to move forward in our lives. It is essentially a period of purification and purification, as we can break free more easily from repetitive patterns, to realize what weakens us and what makes us lose control. We are called to detoxify from people and situations that oppress us and do not allow us to stand on our own two feet and evolve. Anyone who abuses power over us now has no place in our lives. Many times Pluto shows us that we ourselves are sabotaging ourselves, due to our obsessions and the constant effort to maintain control in our lives.
Pluto on the right track: End of an era
So after the big clearing in the previous months all the previous months, we questioned people and situations and realized what is not working, now that Pluto is back on track, from October 7, 2021 to April 2022, it is time for change. The truth will come to light, no matter how painful, and we are called to make decisions, whether for love or for professional and financial matters. We will be given the opportunity to complete issues that were left pending, to focus on a new cycle of developments and, above all, to act now without repeating the mistakes of the past and not to fall into the same traps.
Pluto is for each of us a personal affair and a planet that works mainly internally and underground, so the changes will start from within. In fact, we should keep in mind that the more we resist change and the more we suppress our instincts, the bigger Pluto will explode and the more difficult it will be to manage it along the way. The more we deviate from our inner truth, the greater the conflict and crisis we will experience.
If in the past you searched, searched for the truth and listened to your deepest desires, now you will be stronger and more aware to proceed to radical changes and to shape your life based on the new knowledge. New business plans, new transformational relationships and new horizons open before you, as long as you know exactly what you want and how you will move to achieve it.
Let's see in more detail how the orthogonal course of Pluto will affect each sign separately.
ARIES
Pluto is turning right in the field related to your career and public image. Maybe your career goals change or you decide to change your profession completely, as you realized that you were not happy so far with what you have achieved. Your ambition will be high for the coming months and success in the professional arena will be a matter of life and death. It is important to show consistency and professionalism, so that you can maintain control of the situation, without having to break with superiors and people in power. It is possible that you will be given more responsibilities and obligations, something that should not scare you, but you should see it as an opportunity to show off your skills and make the most of your talents. The only thing for sure is that there is an urgent need for professional development and you will not compromise with mediocre situations that you are not passionate about. Avoid using unfair ways to rise to power or manipulate people to get what you want. Find ways to decompress and stay away from control games.
TAURUS
Pluto orthodoxy affects issues related to your goals, your spiritual pursuits, and your beliefs. In the past few months you have realized what ideas and goals were feasible and you have reviewed everything that does not benefit you and especially what does not contribute to your spiritual development. So now you may decide to change direction to study and higher education issues or issues related to contacts with people from abroad and long distance travel. As much as you love stability, little by little your views will change and you will begin to approach situations through a different prism, either because of some external events or because of your own awareness. You will find that your beliefs are now outdated or superficial and you will adopt a new vision and new goals that will make you passionate. You may come across people who will contribute to all of this and make you radically change your way of thinking with their own guidance. The coming months will give you the opportunity to broaden your spiritual horizons and successfully promote your ideas and views.
GEMINI
Pluto goes straight to the field related to financial and inheritance issues, but also to issues that concern your deep emotional relationships. New data on loans, banks, tax authorities and insurance may come to the surface and you will redefine the way you handle these issues by changing the course of action. It is possible to find a solution to something that was delaying and creating obstacles or some external events to change the way these issues had taken place. When it comes to your relationship, your sexual mood will be very high and you will be attracted to anything mysterious and hidden, so if you are unmarried you are likely to start a new sexual relationship or get involved in a secret situation. If you are engaged, your connection with the other person will be stronger now and you will feel the need to connect with him on a deeper level. If a relationship does not cover you emotionally and is superficial, you may now decide to end it permanently. Beware of power games and obsessions that may overwhelm you.
CANCER
The orthogonal course of Pluto affects the very important area of your interpersonal relationships and collaborations. You are invited to review the people around you or how you relate to them. Your choices will be much more careful and conscious now and if you make a fresh start in your relationship, you will be able to impose yourself and set your limits. Do you want relationships that are intense and have a deep emotional content or will help you evolve? On the contrary, you will not hesitate to distance yourself from people who restrict you, hurt you, or betray you in the past. You are now given the opportunity to make a new, dynamic start and through others to better understand yourself and your deepest needs. The relationships you create now will be transformative and you will meet people who will have a very strong influence on you. In business, you may now be making a new partnership, which will benefit you financially or give you more power. Beware of tensions that may arise with your partner or co-workers due to control and enforcement games.
LEO
Pluto turns right in an area related to your health, fitness and daily life. You will review your schedule, your habits and your routine and make some changes that will benefit you. Maybe it's time to get rid of bad habits, quit smoking, follow a healthier diet or put exercise into your life. If there were any pending issues in your work environment, you will now be able to manage them and meet your obligations. It is very important in the coming months to find ways to decompress and reduce your stress levels. If you feel that your routine is overwhelming, do not hesitate to ask for help or take on less responsibilities. If you have a health problem, it's the right time to seek the right treatment for you or find the perfect doctor.
Virgo
Pluto orthodoxy affects issues related to love, creation and the way you enjoy life. Now and for the coming months you will feel the need to be yourself and not compromise just to satisfy the desires of the other. Expectations change in your love affair and you feel that you are not the same person you were a while ago. You want your relationship to be characterized by passion and intensity and you will not compromise on anything less. Maybe now a new love story will begin, with a person who will have a great influence on you and the relationship with him will change your worldview and the way you deal with love. You will feel the need to have the upper hand in the relationship with your partner or with your children, otherwise tensions and ruptures may occur. But the most important thing is to gain control of your own life and overcome your fears and insecurities. There is an urgent need to find new ways to have fun, enjoy life and express your creativity.
LIBRA
Pluto is turning right in the field of home, family and past issues. Your relationship with your parents and relatives or people very close to you will change in the coming months. If you felt that your desires were being suppressed or that others were manipulating towards you, now you will step in and demand that it all end. You will have more confidence and strength to express your needs or your feelings and you will not hesitate to finally finish anything that does not benefit you. You will feel the need to get rid of toxic situations and people who have haunted you and should now stay in the past and no longer affect you. You will go through a process of deep introspection in order to discover what you really need and what offers you emotional security. If you are emotionally dependent on someone, you will now be given the opportunity to disengage and step on your feet. The bet is to build equal relationships with those around you, so do not succumb to power and control games.
SCORPIO
Your ruler, Pluto, is now on the right track in terms of communication, movement, and thinking. You will now realize that your speech has a great influence on those around you and you will be able to easily convince yourself of your views and ideas. The coming months are suitable for any kind of research, search and in-depth discussions, through which new information and data can emerge which can change the way you think. Siblings, neighbors, recent trips or some of your interests can play an important role in shaping your views or making some decisions. The way you express yourself will now be more intense and passionate and you will want meaningful conversations with interesting people. On the contrary, you are not interested in light and superficial contacts with people who do not have to offer you something essential. Try to control your obsessions and negative thoughts and do not let them overwhelm you.
SAGITTARIUS
Pluto goes straight to the field related to money, material goods, but also your self-esteem. The way you manage your money will change and it is possible to use your talent in order to benefit financially. Your value system will change in the coming months and you will see things from a different perspective. If you used to be hooked on people or situations and take them for granted, now is the time to break free and rely more on your own strengths. You may experience some kind of loss, which will make you realize that everything is temporary and nothing can be taken for granted. But at the same time, you will discover skills you were unaware of that will help you redefine your personal worth, regardless of your materials and acquisitions.
CAPRICORN
Pluto turns in the right direction in your zodiac sign and directly affects your personality and the way you present yourself in your immediate environment. The past few months have given you the opportunity to redefine your goals and priorities in your life. So you figured out what you need to change and which direction you need to go. The coming months, with Pluto on the right track, are the right time to act, take initiatives and most importantly take control of your life. You have regained your self-confidence and will no longer allow anyone to dominate you, whether it is your sexual partner or your partner. You are called to fight feelings of inferiority or fears of failure and to act vigorously and decisively. You will discover how much inner strength you have inside you, which will help you manage crises that may arise. But the most important lesson is that you can not control everything around you, so you need to know when to back off. The only thing that is certain is that after the passage of Pluto from your sign, you will never be the same as you were before.
AQUARIUS
Pluto orthodoxy affects issues of the subconscious, deeper psychological issues and anything hidden. The passage of Pluto in this area is not an easy task, as you are called to face phobias, insecurities, repulsions and situations that you can not easily control and you may feel overwhelmed. In the coming months you will feel the need to permanently close a chapter of your life, even if it is painful, as it contains deep emotional content. Maybe some people around you are acting behind the scenes and trying to sabotage you or you will choose to act secretly or without revealing your motives. It is important to find ways to decompress and relieve stress, because your mental health is a priority. Pay close attention to your intuition or dreams that can guide you properly.
PISCES
Pluto is now moving in the right direction in the field related to your friendships, your social gatherings and the groups with which you share a common vision and ideas. You may need to reconsider your views and adopt a new action plan in order to pursue your goals, as you will find that what you have had in mind so far has not been possible or does not help you to develop spiritually. The ideas you are looking for want to have an impact, not only on those around you, but also on society as a whole and you will not compromise on anything less than that. Take advantage of the coming months to commit to your long-term goals and vision, motivate other people with the same beliefs to follow you in it. Your social life will undergo radical changes and it is now possible to reconsider your relationships with friends, either because of a betrayal you will experience, or because you realize that you can not be yourself in your relationship with the other person and you are oppressed. The only thing of course is that now it will be seen who is a true friend and who is not.
