Pluto, Power and Relationships Between Generations

Pluto has recently moved into Aquarius—-which means that now whenever anything goes through Leo (welcome to Leo season), it will get an opposition to Pluto. It means the Pluto in Leo Generation are experiencing their natal Pluto opposing Pluto in Aquarius by Sign and having to come to terms with how they pass the baton and step off the throne to allow other generations to take up power. But Pluto in Leo (Baby Boomers) really like thrones. It’s Leo. So…we’re seeing a lot of them coming face-to-face these ideas right now.

It takes Pluto two decades to traverse a zodiac sign. So it marks generations and it marks things to do with what we give power to. We’re changing into a new era marked with Aquarian Ideals—power to humanity at large, power to reformed structures, power to technology, innovation and rearranging. We’re moving away from the Pluto in Capricorn earthy, boundary-building focus of the last 20 years.

In this podcast, I discuss how Pluto gives each generation a flavor of handling and interacting with power. How Pluto has a relationship with what’s underneath the iceberg and each generation’s way of interacting with that iceberg. With power changing hands in the USA right now and the news of a Pluto in Leo candidate passing the baton (finally) to a Pluto in Virgo candidate, things are shifting. Power struggles and how we give and take power—it’s changing.

I also speak about the infantilization of the Pluto in Scorpio (Millennial) generation and that every generation’s version of adulthood looks different and may not be perceived as powerful or capable by the above generations. Pluto moves so slowly that older generations have no context for the young people they see come to adulthood.

Anyway, this one was pretty philosophical and I hope is just some food for thought.

(look into the "Luminary" and "Soverign" archetypes for what I'm referencing in this episode. But the whole playlist is so worth diving into)
