Hi all...

I have been reading a new book called Hades Moon : Pluto in Aspect to the Moon. Great stuff.

I have a Pluto Libra Opp Moon Aries in the 11th. My mother also has her moon and sun pluto etc in her 11th house. All in Leo. Her Moon Leo conjunct Leo Pluto. My sister has no aspect between moon and pluto.

My mothers mom, died when my Mother was 17 kidney disease. My mothers grandma, whom she never met, as I never met my grandmother, died at the age of 42, she never met her. My mother was close with her mom, though her mom was often depressed, unhappy etc. But my mother has fond memories of her.

Im curious to see if my grandmother had an aspect with the moon and pluto as well. But her specific birth date is hard to come by.

There just seems to be some interesting issues with the maternal line in my family. The whole maternal energy, goddess, Anima. My mother and I's relationship is very complicated. Some cruelty, love, but lack of definite emotional support. Physical material support to mask over the lack of emotional support. Sometimes it seems the emotional currents I have arent even mine, but something inherited from my maternal line... Hmm Pluto can you take me to the underworld to face my projections put upon my mother?

Just curious if anyone can shed some light on the whole pluto, moon connection between my mother and I, I added the synastry between my mother and I. She is the outer in the chart Im the inner. But it doesnt have the specific aspects listed so Im not 100% whats goin on. Looks like pluto is in hard aspect to my natal mercury I think?.

Hi, Davy. I totally understand what you wrote as I have Moon conjunct Pluto in Scorpio. I've experienced the same relationship with my mom: lots of material support and overt displays of affection that mask a fundamental emotional disconnect. She has Gemini Moon square Pluto and it's quite common for a Moon-Pluto mom to have a Moon-Pluto child, especially when the mother hasn't worked out her own emotional/mothering issues. Then, it's often passed down, in a way.

But, don't consider yourself helpless to this "inheritance", of course. With that Aries Moon opposite Pluto, you're a very powerful person and you appear to want to exercise the insight in order to transform yourself. As far as what emotional "stuff" is yours or your mother's... I can attest that this line is very blurry and hard to define. I actually think that's the case for everyone's Moon. It's hard to tell where our maternal figure ends and we begin, sometimes, when it comes to our Moon energy.

Just keep practicing self-awareness, keep being introspective, and know that you're not limited by your past. Also know that there's nothing wrong with your emotional intensity and passion; it only enriches your experience of life. So, don't run from it.

If you head to my blog, there's a post on Moon-Pluto aspects, in the June section, that might be helpful for you.

No offence but you need to be a bit realistic here. Your mother isn't superwoman. She cannot provide absolutely everything. If you know you are loved and cared for this should be enough. When she's being a mother to you she's still coping with aspects of her own life. I had serious mother issues and I have Pluto trine moon.


She also seems to have had a good relationship with her mother with Jupiter and Venus in 10th.

Trust that Pluto will always be projected upon and made a scapegoat for all the issues and fears of others. Thing is, when Pluto is done he WILL transform one way or another and just leave permanently.

He infuses people with raw power that many fear and thus want to conquer or destroy. Our mothers as well.

Stay strong and just walk your own way!

My mother is also a Hades Mooner. Scorpio Moon 8H sq Leo Pluto 2H. One of the most horrible humans I know. She had it all: a well mannered daughter she fed nothing but contempt and backhanded sarcasm to make said daughter submissive. She gave away her son to her abusive ex husband. She quit her well paying job at a law firm and boozed away her years. 15 years later she finally found enough guts to tell me that she never wanted me and everything was my fault.

I suppose my Hades Moon should just have stood there, taken that sh*t since Dear Mommy must surely have loved me? No, I told her I would kill her if she didn't shut up. Then she started crying and playing the whole poor me-Scorpio-vindictive schpeal.

Without my own Pluto she would have ruined me.

Like your blog freespirit.
You explain Moon/Pluto, very well. Conjunct here.
As far my relationship with my Mother, complicated. I love her dearly, parents are mortal just like we are. I deem the tough stuff as my education.

Here is a great quote:
'Everyone is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody.'- Mark Twain
his natal chart holds an Aries Moon conjunct Pluto

Thank you! What sign is the conjunction in? And yes, I definitely agree with this as I get older.

7grace... Thank for the song. Haven't heard it in forever. Thanks much.

I'm curious as what part Pluto In Capricorn which is in my 6th house , the capricorn side. Mars Neptune are in 6th house, but in the Sag part. But Caps ruler Saturn is in my 4th house, which is the emotional foundation etc. So I wonder whats bringin this on now?

the89freespirit... WOW did your blog about Pluto Moon ever hit home. Right on the bulls eye of issues I have had my whole entire life.

The interesting thing is in the article it mentions to deal with the very power and the source of the emotions. But with Pluto, many of these emotions feel almost primal. Primal emotions, such as fear, are associated with ancient parts of the brain and presumably evolved among our premammal ancestors. Filial emotions, such as a human mother's love for her offspring, seem to have evolved among early mammals. Social emotions, such as guilt and pride, evolved among social primates.

But it feels so strong. I also read : Memories, emotions and impressions stored in the Plutonian region of our psyche tend to arouse primal fear within us: thus we’re afraid to approach this area during normal daily life. Amen!

My mother completely rejected this part of myself. So our relationship became conditional, dont show or express the things that make Mother feel uncomfortable, or you will be called names, rejected. But the issue is that I, me, Not my mother now has handled it the exact same way she did. Doh!

It's the doorway through which volatile compressed pockets of self, spirit and primal energy lies hidden, which are released either by our own efforts or by provocation from the outside world.

I see this daily... something will trigger an intense primal fearful reaction, and I usually project onto something external because that has been a way to "control" it, handle it, have a reason for it. Just flee whatever you project as being cause for this large primal reaction, even though I have known for years, nah uh, that aint the cause. These are reminders for whats in my shadows.

This primal raw energy pluto reps, the primal fear from ancient parts in our brain... I wonder is this the lower octave of it, and the higher of this energy is allowed to be transformed, to exist, if it refines in a sense and becomes a sort of a new intuition.

Im reading this book called The Language of Emotions, and how fear is actually intuition instincts,clarity, attentiveness, readiness... You dont have to be afraid to feel fear, just like this "knowing" if you are driving and see a car spinning out of control, intuition will tell you to get outta the way, car is coming, etc and you operate on that. But I wonder with primal fear, ancient fear, what that would transform 2?

Of course if one is willing to face it, allow it, maybe not even need a reason for it, its there. Not to "mother" it the way you were taught, by rejecting it, being afraid of it. Fearing just the intensity of this raw primal energy that confused the heck outta ya sometime.

I read :
Pluto's energy will not be suppressed but its power is often feared. This can put you in a showdown between your greatest fears of being destroyed, and the pursuit of the deepest longing in your heart.

It almost feels as if I leave this inner home built around this raw primal energy, that lingers in the basement locked away in that home... IT WILL DESTROY ME. Walking around, with this raw primal energy always afraid, angry, scared... Oy vei!

I read : The karmic purpose behind it is to propel the person with the Hades Moon into a place where he or she can let go of the need for external mothering and learn to mother the individual self.

I can see how I have always looked around especially for women, female healers, psychics, therapists etc... Where I will feel them out to see hmm will they be able to help with all this fear, etc. Hasn't happened.

I will learn. I will get there. I will accept my emotions. The deepest darkest ones.

I read :
Only by confronting the reality of your state and facing your subconscious fears and complexes will you become emotionally empowered.

Existentially it will destroy you because that's what Pluto does. But in destroying all the emotional baggage and self-image coping mechanisms that one grew up with, the true self emerges and therein lies the rub. To truly transform you must let Pluto do it's job.

Sdragon... How does one let Pluto do its job? Vs not? How do I know Pluto is destroying the emotional baggage? Moments when they flare up, and instead of coping the way one has, just allow it to come up and not fight it, and during such moments Pluto is, doing his thang?

Some people require Therapy to explore their emotional baggage. Having the safe environment and a non-judgemental person to talk to can give them insight into their emotional response and the reasons why, which is usually due to a misconceived view of reality.

Others can do it with someone they trust or a SO. And the more introspective people can usually dive in and learn about their own emotional nature themselves along with learning to understand how to not let their emotions control them. Feel the emotions deeply, but respond instead of react.

But it takes baby steps. It's like someone having an intense fear of public speaking being told that they'll only get past it by speaking at a football game or even at their church. The number of people don't make the difference because the psychological self believes that any public speaking will kill the person.

[Edit: moved to my computer so I can type faster instead of on my iPad]

To answer how to 'let' Pluto do it's job. Pluto is the transformer but Pluto is us. Everything is connected. As long as we view Pluto as an external power or an aspect of God that will somehow correct us or transform us whether we like to or not, we continue to experience the power and powerlessness of Pluto energy in all it's aspects. Pluto doesn't say I'm going to transform you. It requests that we take Pluto power and transformation unto ourselves - to accept responsibility for our own power, for our own emotions and for the creative and destructive force that is Pluto.

To have the power of powerful emotional responses, to be able to consciously use that power in all creative pursuits... what a powerhouse one could be - one can use the artist Pink as an example.

In the throes of emotional fear and drowning in your emotions, can you find that little voice that can ask 'Why am I feeling this?'... "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you" ...

Thanks Dragon. Helps me see it in a new way, when the normal REACTION is 2 get away from the emotion, or try to intellectualize it, by saying oh Im feeling this way because x y z, etc. But its all merely a mechanical reaction.

Def will find that lil voice.
