Kay,Everything we do is "karma" (an action). So everything in a chart is "karma" (actions we are taking). The RESULTS of our actions is "vipaka". As one site puts it karma is "volition, volitional or intentional activity. Karma is always followed by its fruit, Vipaka. Karma and Vipaka are oftentimes referred to as the law of causality, a cardinal concern in the Teaching of the Buddha." So talking about "karma" to me has always seemed silly. The only time we are "karmic" all the time: it is our Vipaka that people should be concerned about.
That said, when A's Pluto (transformation, also control) is in B's 1rst houe (being), B feels A (Mom) is personally controlling or personally in control of B (you). When B's Saturn (duty, also authority, restriction) is in A's 1rst house, A (Mom) feels B (you) is trying to be an authority or is restrictive in some way. So you see your mom as controlling and she sees you as "bossy".
Now that you know that, you can work WITH this to understand why there will always be issues between you and make an effort to lessen these issues. When you find yourself telling your Mom what to do, remind yourself not to be too bossy with her. When your Mom starts to be controlling, find out if she has your best interests in mind. If she does, work with her to work things out.
If you are not "of age" (legally an adult) your Mom is still the "boss" and you have to work with her to get along with her. After you become an adult, then it's your decision as to whether you want to put up with feeling "controlled".
And, if you are not "of age", even without the synastry, this is normal teenage rebellion, when we decide we want to be "our own person". This process prepares us for being out on our own in the coming years.
Plutonically Saturnal,
