Pluto
Pluto is the modern ruler of Scorpio, and many of its concepts and key words are synonymous with those used
for Scorpio itself. Pluto represents the peak, or pit experience, a deep psychological experience that includes a
kind of dying, after which we are never again the same. Pluto transits bum our bridges behind us; we can never
go back to who and what we were before, and most would not want to. Those foolish enough to try end up really
dying, or at best, like Lots wife, ossifying, turning into pillars of salt, lifeless physical forms.
Pluto strips away everything to expose the pure, precious
jewel which lies at the core of the soul. If you want to know
what it is like, just ask anyone who has planets in Scorpio
what he went through during the years from 1984 to 1996!
Theyll tell you what theyve had to let go, all that was ripped
away by a cruel tide! Most only now, with Pluto firmly
established in Sagittarius (1996), realize just how precious
a gift they possess in the place of all that other stuff. The
new life into which they have been reborn is becoming
apparent.
The experience of Plutos transit of Sun, Moon or angular
house can seem like dying and reincarnating in the same
body. You remember the person you used to be and that
person seems a stranger, so nave, so superficial. What
was before only knowledge is now wisdom, and surface
sympathy has deepened into compassion.
Pluto forces us to give up our innocence. In that way it is
like rape. The myth of Hades and Persephone is Plutos
story. Persephone is kidnapped by Hades/Pluto, dragged
down into the underworld and raped or seduced. She must
have liked it, for she became Plutos wife, Queen of the
Underworld. She lost her virginity, her innocence, but in the
process became empowered and powerful. After all, Pluto
is the king of wealth, as in the word plutocracy, rule by the
wealthy.

Personal Journey in the Stars

Once we can see with Plutonian X-ray vision, we come to own our power. Others can
sense it. People who have natal Pluto configured with the Sun, Moon or in an angular
house are often seen by others people, those who feel powerless, as either angels or
devils. No one ever quite trusts a Plutonian. He or she just knows too much, see through
us, ferrets out our cherished secrets and then chuckles knowingly at the ridiculousness of
them.
Pluto lays us bare to the very soul. That can be very purifying, totally healing and
devastating. It brings emotional crisis, taking away all the dead wood in our lives which
blocks our future growth. It feels like radical, psychic surgery, often followed by the
blackest of depressions, and a sense of isolation so deep that no one and nothing can reach us to pull us out. But
health and wholeness does return! We burst one day into the expansive joy that is symbolized by Sagittarius and
its ruler, Jupiter. Pluto is power of every kind, from raw brutality to redeeming grace. It spans the distance from
the dungeons of hell to the high vaults of heaven.
