This too! Pluto aspects, how it functions in your chart (as well as where Scorpio is and what your 8th house situation is) can shed a lot of light on the issues. IP: Logged |

Pluto is in my 3rd,in scorpios. Opposite my Sun and Mercury in 9th. Inconjunct my Venus in 8th. Well, my poor mind is doomed! . Even if I get over the feelings, my mind will be obsessed for a loong time over the person I let go off.. sigh IP: Logged |

Ime Pluto is also about confronting the things which we run from. Emotions for example. As a double hades moon, the only way for me to truly understand my feelings and get through them is to feel them and accept them as they are. Many times people will do whatever they can to avoid dealing with dark emotions such as anger, resentment, depression, sadness, grief, guilt. Pluto doesn't let me avoid these, and if I tried to things would just get worse. In order for me to deal with something I'm feeling I have to obsessively go through the feeling over and over again, constantly on a daily basis. I think part of this is what allowed me to confront the fact that my mom was going to pass away from cancer before it actually happened. For my dad (who lacks strong Pluto) it was such a tremendous shock for him, but deep down I always knew that it was going to happen some way or another. IP: Logged |

Nah, no such thing as doomed unless you accept that. I have plenty of inconjuncts in my chart, they are wonderful! Frustrating in the beginning, yes, but beautifully unique when they've found their balance and teamwork. In some ways, your doomed out look is pretty atypical for Pluto inconjunct Venus, actually! Venus has no idea what Pluto is about, frustrated and turned off by it's existence. And a stubborn Venus can be lazy and rude when it comes to actually getting something done! (Not you, just the Venus ) See what aspects are made to Venus to strengthen her. Pluto opposing anything is really cool; it's a push/pull effect to balance out what needs to be done. It really does embody the whole 'let go' ideology because they are at odds. But Pluto in the third is a lovely placement; you need deep talks with a lot of information and mystery and purpose. And Mercury in the 9th is learning how to open up that third house; what a lovely placement! Venus in the 8th is beautifully placed as well actually, sitting in the true home of Pluto! If anything, it sounds like these guys are all set up to assist that Pluto in the Third house of mind, information gathering, projects and sibling-like peers. The obsession is normal! It's a different kind of obsession when Pluto is in the 3rd house/Mind. But your Sun and Mercury in the 9th don't like that it's more of a daily, lower mind obsession rather than a higher learning, bigger picture related issue. It's okay to focus on the little details sometimes! But it's also okay to suss out what you want to know and think about; I spent years mentally obsessing over a lot, and I've got Mercury conjunct Pluto. It was something I fought with until I realized it just is what it is. If you find it problematic, find something else you really like thinking and studying about! The best option is give yourself something else to obsess over (happily). For me it was tattoos that I want to get/design  IP: Logged |

(Which is the real scary part, if we aren't used to letting ourselves just FEEL things). I thought that 'letting go' of something very important to me recently was impossible, terrifying and I struggled for years over it. And then one day I just let myself dig into it a little, hear some hard truths and really cry and feel my way through it. It was painful at the time, because deep sadness and grief is meant to ... but I am so proud of myself for finally doing it. It feels passed over now, like I really did go right through it instead of trying to angrily or sadly just toss it away from me. I HAD to grieve what I was letting go of.And it's not that you have to just 'let it go' in one fell swoop, which is what the mind perceives as frightening. Whatever we are here to master and surrender control over, is meant to not be controlled. It's meant to be let go. And then it can transform, not just disappear. I think there is an element of needing to master the lower levels of Pluto as well .. and often that does involve very intense grief. Grieving over what you think or thought was what you actually need or wanted. And yes, it does take time! Don't ever think you have to force yourself; explore a little bit each day, even if it's just through astrology or a few minutes thinking about what the issues are (in a kind way to yourself; I wouldn't suggest picking and pulling apart the wound itself unless you feel an urge to be upset about it; take a minute and just FEEL the frustration or sadness. That's an important part too. Pluto is rarely ever one fell swoop, it needs bits and pieces here and there.
Thank you so much for writing this! I really appreciate it, very insightful and beautifully put together<3 Yes I know exactly how you mean! As I wrote in one of your posts, I am going through just what you are describing in that post and here <3. I am at the finishing line, but something inside me still struggles. I think it will fade away with time though! I process things slowly and theer are many up and downs. Somedays I feel so free. Somedays my mind will spinn over again... I never repress things though and I know I will feel better with time even if it will hurt for a long time after I feel a "relief" and "release"... IP: Logged |

So you have the conjunction, I can only imagine how that must be! I never seen this kind of relating to thise placements! Thank you for writing this Yes I do actually like having that opposition, I like the push/pull effect very much for some reason! Its such a big part of my life really and I have many oppositions (and conjunctions) in my chart, so I like that energy.
Yes well doomed is a too strong of a word, I should not throw that around like that  Yes well my Venus is also conjunct Jupiter and my n.node, and pluto is inconjunct those too. But venus is also square Neptune, and thats so lovely! Really, one of my fav aspects for so many reasons... Neptune to my Sun, Mercury and Venus <3 IP: Logged |

Ohh, so your forward momentum in life isn't sure how to get along with the 'backward' feeling of holding steady and working through those deep emotions! Especially having Jupiter involved. But Jupiter is quite beneficial even in harder aspects, because it makes it a much easier concept to grasp; Jupiter is enormous and also brilliantly smart at understanding the reason for everything. It probably feels a little at odds with your direction and purpose, but I bet the opposition from the Sun is stubbornly working on what needs to be done! Sounds like it, from what you are saying. And yes, Neptune aspects can be wonderfully helpful! IP: Logged |

Jupiter helps you find meaning in hardship, "look a the bigger picture" and to turn to faith and hope to get through hard times but life is plenty hard for sag sun folks. Just met a lady who is a Sag who has an extensive trauma history but extremely spiritual and always trying to find meaning, like she will try to see the good that has come out of the history of her trauma, she will try to find some kind of meaning for it happening, her brain naturally seeks this and needs this to make sense of things and as a sag riser I am the same but I still feel life is hard and struggle with mood swings.IP: Logged |

Looks like you need to concentrate on the the broad spectrum of things as opposed to every single fact and detail. There should always be a theme to what ever informations you find. There's a formula to how those facts and perspectives should be put together. What ever themes that play out in those intense relationships will be the base of your broadening perspective. From that perspective, the truths, logic and rhetoric that spawm from those scrutinized philosophies and beliefs is your power. IP: Logged |

Pluto is good as it helps you to focus and be in control. It's an excellent power to be used in things like research/investigation. When you let Pluto overwhelm you and you try to control what you can't that's when it becomes dark and damaging (to self & others). Someone mentioned Pluto likes to flog a dead horse. I couldn't agree more. That's a common negative manifestation of Pluto which I see. Pluto always wanna seek an answer but the truth is there is no answer to everything. Sometimes Pluto can deceive making you think that you're in control when actually you're not. The eventual realisation will bring you pain. And the way I deal with my Pluto is to just let the pain come... accept the pain of losing...accept that there are things I can't explain or control. But the realisation helps me gain control of my emotions and realise what I'm doing, and that's the enlightenment. And then I jump to my 11H Jupiter to do happy things.

I find that if people have something hard in their chart, such as Chiron conj the ASC, for example, a strong Pluto can overcome the negative effects of it--that kind of thing.

Lol that person was me! "beating the horse when its been dead for weeks", lol. Mostly referring to how one obesessively hold on to someone one loves when its not going anywhere, and can't accept it and let it go. But you explained it much better! And its appliable on many more subjects <3 "When you let Pluto overwhelm you and you try to control what you can't that's when it becomes dark and damaging ". <3 IP: Logged |

What about natal Pluto in Libra?Beating dead horse sounds like me especially when I was younger. I’m afraid there will be obsession in relationships area when solar arc Pluto will square my Venus. I hate that obsessive side of me but I have learned to let go. In days and weeks. That’s really progress as I have cried after nonexisting relationships five years...twice. Second time it was more like 8 years  IP: Logged |

Look how many dead horses we've been flogging!  When you say "non-existing" relationships, do you mean nothing ever happen? Just a one-sided crush?
