I experienced it when I was 5-7 years old. I think I developed the belief/hope that I was adopted during that time. Yes, it was that bad.From my experience with Pluto transits - and I've been through a few - the worst is WHILE it is applying for the first time (because it usually goes retro, then direct - so it usually makes 3 hits). The exact conjunction wasn't all that important; the other hits were milder versions of the first.
Nothing beats the slow building of tension that Pluto loves so much.
