How can the power of Pluto be used positively?

Pluto is prominent in my chart (conjunct AC and sextile MC so there's no hiding it!) and it's recently (as of 10 minutes ago) been brought to my attention that I've sometimes I can channel the negative qualities of that planet strongly; Or if I'm not using those qualities then they're being used against me by others. It's never been my intention to hurt people so I want to change. How can I become a more positive Plutonian?

It’s a double-edged sword. You either use it or it will be used against you. Atleast that is what has happened so far for me. Pluto sextile MC may give you plenty of opportunity to get yourself into powerful positions in society. Conjunction to ASC. can be difficult. You may want to control everything around you and as it is on ASC., people can also sense it.

I don't know if other Plutonians can relate but I often feel the need to destroy something, in some way. It can be something stupid like deleting posts on social websites, defriending people, erasing some memories written in a journal, burning letters, throwing away hoarded stuff.. or if I can't do that, I just rearrange things (I think that may be because Pluto is in my 6th house) - cleaning my room, tidying clothes, organising things on my computer.. Doing this makes me feel in control, and at the end of the process, I feel like a part of me is purified, clean, set free.

With Pluto on the ASC, the need for change and catharsis is even more powerful and relates to the self - you may feel like changing the way you look or come across very often, or more importantly, feel like you need to change within - heal yourself, become better, stronger, and so on.

So, working on yourself is very important.
You can check the other aspects Pluto makes and work on those issues as well, and exploit their potential.

If Pluto sextiles your MC, you can apply your gained knowledge about yourself to help people understand themselves better or deal with some situations in their lives.

I have Pluto trining my ASC, trine MH, sextile neptune, sextile saturn and 2 smaller aspects to sun and venus. Would that be considered as prominent or significant or not? Other planets are more prominent in my chart.

Twirl,

That's significant, but not in a big way.
Flowing aspects aren't as noticeable as hard aspects, so while the energy is present, it's easy-flowing and not as insistent or in your face.

PS. Pluto sextile Neptune is a generational aspect that doesn't bear much significance on a personal level (unless it falls on an axis).

Understood. Thanks again
And, ehmm...Neptune is conjunct my descendant. So would it then be considered as falling on an axis? Or should I go instantly to astrology for beginners,

I do love those transforming exercises (cleaning and getting rid of) by the way. It's huge, because you then make literally room for the new and consciously deciding what is old and no longer necessary. That on a side note.

well i relate and too at times start deleting/braking contacts with people i dont really know/ throw papers away/deleting users


so i dont really think its the 6th house as my pluto is in the 10th

but the re-ordering might be related to pluto in the 6th as in that you order your invironment and feel like you can control it.

So far I have experienced Pluto Transits to:

DSC
Uranus
Venus
Sun
Neptune
Mercury
and it's headed toward my MC

It also plays a big part in my Natal chart. Needless to say I have experienced my share of Pluto lessons and have grown familiar with the positive applications.

Pluto is a crucible, it burns away excess, cuts a situation down to its basic elements, and liquefies the situation (removing any resistance to the truth). At first Pluto lessons are about getting beat the hell down until your options are to accept the truth, or die. After some time, Pluto lessons are about knowing when to look deeply at something and know it's roots are in line with your truth (whether you want to accept it or not). In the end Pluto becomes a great intuitive tool for knowing when something is in line with our essential truth. It helps us automatically identify and avoid situations which pull us away from our honest self and therefor transforms us from the form we assume through upbringing, into the form by which we entered this world. In summary, Pluto is a process of transformation through acceptance (regardless of how hard it is to accept).

Once one has embraced their Pluto, we can use it to not only see the truth at the root of their self, but the hidden intentions of others. Pluto is x-ray vision, the universal voyeur, it looks past what is presented on the surface and uncovers whatever beautiful or emaciated forms are stowed behind the curtain.

I have the feeling I just experienced a downright Plutonian experience. Today is the first day of optimism I have had all week. Things are looking better now. With Pluto, you wait it out. You will notice the community spirit when everyone rises together out of the ashes to help. I wonder which sign Pluto really rules, Aries, or Scorpio? The Phoenix rising out of the ashes to begin anew reminds me of Aries and this is what I am experiencing around me now through the actions of others (Aries on cusp of 7.)

I have Mars conj. Pluto and I have the negative traits associated with being strong-willed (controlling, have to get my way, etc.).

For me, I can tone it down on a case by case basis for people I deem worthy. I know that sounds *really* snobby, but it's true. I won't lie. Some people in my life are simply too important to lose, so I try to be more gentle with them.

Everyone else can love me this way or **** off. That's how I operate. Very few have stuck by me and I don't blame them... I can be a beast. But in my opinion, the remaining people are the best of the best so I'm not unhappy or sad about it.

I feel that way toooo. You took my thoughts out of my head.
I chopped my hair off one time because, I dont even remember why, i just felt like it. Like i needed something drastic to feel changed.
Maybe getting rid of things is cathartic for a lot of people since its a physical manifestation of change. People like having that instant gratification feeling and throwing away things does that.
Even if its like getting rid of people. I've gotten rid of people. I relished slicing people out of my life. I longed for something new. Like I couldn't move on unless they were OUT. And some didn't even do anything "wrong" to me. I just felt heldback. I wouldn't reccommend it though. It has a lot of draw backs haha.

And pure, i don't know exactly what sort of negativity you mean, but if its like negative thoughts or feelings towards others, let the thoughts float on by and observe them but try not to get emotional about them. That will just illuminate the bad stuff. Just let them float on and essentially weed them out so you can focus on more positive things. I saw a show about having negative thoughts specifically and to ward them off when your mind generates one you can say "okay, peace" like a mantra til it goes away or you feel okay. If this makes any sense.

Xiiro has a great way with words - very eloquent

I'll just add my own 2 cents.

In regards to the highest truth, it's also about questioning your own motives. When Pluto power is used to destroy, recreate or transform any life situation, it has to be for the highest good. Because Pluto usually comes in forms that we're unaware of, some exhibit it in personal relationships while others only show the traits in work relationships when relating to subordinates or people deemed to have less 'power'.

Pluto itself is like the Hindu God Shiva - the destroyer - it's a planetary and psychological archetype. We do not own it's power and therefore when we believe we do, all attempts at the usage of power tends to be destructive and selfishly used to reinforce the individual persons ego. Only when the ego is bypassed and Pluto's power is used for the greater good will others usually recognize that because they intuitively understand the archetype itself.

So to answer the original question, you can try to do a lot of soul searching to determine in what positions of power those negative aspects appear and what stimuli might have triggered it. The more awareness and consciousness we shine on our internal mechanism, the less ability other people will have to trigger it unconscionably.

relate very well to this
defriending people...right after finishing highschool i reduced my facebook friend list to less than half.
After spending 2012 as a blonde(which was weird terrible and a no no no for me) i decided to change my look. In the course of 3 days my hair went from blonde to techno red to black. As it is now(i guess this saturn transit in 1st likes to be dark and serious lol) I shocked everyone, especially those who saw me pink haired in the evening and in the morning with a dark hair And my Pluto does not have one bit of patience, i did it by myself at home lol. I cannot wait for appointments to the hairstylist
I need change of any kind, its vital for me.

Also very well explained; the above part especially. I agree we never possess or control Pluto, however I do believe we can utilize the insights available from a Plutonian perspective to our spiritual benefit.

Pluto can never to be manhandled or directed, only observed and accepted.

i am sort of heavy pluto. i can say i try to always remember through understanding. my view is, energy is all in sync and you will put in yourself what you put out.
