Pluto enters Aquarius! Leo, Scorpio, Taurus and Aquarius placements...this is for you!

Pluto is finally leaving Capricorn for good tomorrow (November 19th 2024), letting go of its grip on the cardinal signs (Libra, Capricorn, Sagittarius and Aries) These signs were stuck in a constant karmic cycle of transformation, lessons, challenges, the highest of highs and lowest of lows. These signs were made to step into their power by confronting their deepest fears, challenging old beliefs, and embracing transformation in key areas of life. Now the cycle has ended, these cardinal signs will have undergone significant shifts in their identity, relationships, and sense of purpose, ready to start a new chapter with greater self-awareness and clarity.

The energy for Pluto entering Aquarius is very different so do not fear! If you have a fixed sign in any of your top 3 placements (sun, moon or rising) then this will affect you.

Pluto's transition into Aquarius on November 19, marks a significant astrological shift. Pluto is the planet of transformation, power, and deep, often uncomfortable, change. Aquarius, the sign of innovation, individuality, technology, and the collective, invites a complete overhaul of systems, ideas, and structures—particularly those relating to society, freedom, and the future. For the fixed signs—Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius—Pluto’s transit through Aquarius will bring potent, long-lasting transformations, as these signs often resist change and are more deeply rooted in stability.

General Themes for All Fixed Signs

For the fixed signs, the most significant challenge Pluto’s transit in Aquarius will present is the need to embrace change in areas where they naturally resist it. Fixed signs often prefer stability, tradition, and consistency, so the collective, forward-thinking, and often disruptive energy of Aquarius will require them to adapt in ways that challenge their sense of control.

• Releasing old structures: Pluto in Aquarius pushes all fixed signs to let go of outdated systems, beliefs, and routines that no longer serve the present.

• Innovating with technology: Aquarius is the sign of technology and the future, so fixed signs might be pushed to incorporate new tools, ideas, and ways of thinking into their lives.

• Transforming power dynamics: Pluto brings power struggles and deep transformations, so expect to encounter situations where you have to release old power dynamics and embrace new ways of relating to power, both within yourself and with others.

This is a transformative period for the fixed signs, one that will challenge their attachment to what feels familiar and safe, while offering an opportunity to grow, evolve, and step into a new version of themselves. How this plays out will depend on each individual’s chart, but collectively, it's a time for breaking free from stagnation and embracing a more innovative, collective vision of the future.

For a more specific break down, here is how it is going to affect each of the fixed sign placements.

Taurus Placements

• Pluto in Aquarius will challenge you in areas related to your values, resources, and self-worth. For Taurus, the fixed earth sign, change is often slow and steady, but Pluto's presence in Aquarius will encourage you to rethink your relationship with money, possessions, and personal security. Aquarius’ energy is very different from the grounded, material nature of Taurus, so expect disruptions that push you to break free from outdated beliefs or behaviours around security and value systems.

  
  

  Possible Themes:

  • Revolutionising your finances: You may feel a strong urge to let go of traditional ways of managing money or explore new technologies (like cryptocurrency, decentralised finance, or new investment strategies).

  • Redefining self-worth: Pluto will encourage you to release attachment to external markers of success (like material wealth or possessions) and instead tap into a more authentic sense of self-worth that aligns with your deeper values.

  • Letting go of stagnation: You might face situations that require you to let go of outdated structures or habits in your life. This could be a time of shedding old relationships, jobs, or material attachments that no longer serve you.

Leo

• For Leo, Pluto’s transit through Aquarius will activate your relationships, both personal and professional, particularly your one-on-one dynamics with others. As a fixed fire sign, you’re naturally resistant to change in how you relate to others, and Pluto in Aquarius will challenge you to reconsider old patterns in love, partnership, and collaboration. Aquarius, being the sign of equality and group dynamics, will ask you to release old ego-based or hierarchical ways of relating and adopt a more balanced and humanitarian approach in your relationships.

  
  

  Possible Themes:

  • Power dynamics in relationships: There may be shifts in how you navigate authority, power, and control within partnerships. You might experience significant changes in your closest connections (romantic or otherwise), requiring you to reassess how you express your individuality within a partnership.

  • Letting go of pride or dominance: Pluto will push you to move away from any tendencies toward dominance or needing to always be in the spotlight in relationships. You may learn that true strength lies in mutual respect and shared power rather than control.

  • Innovative partnerships: You may find yourself drawn to unconventional or progressive relationships or collaborations that are less about personal validation and more about shared vision and goals.

Scorpio

• Pluto in Aquarius will be especially significant for Scorpio, as Pluto is your ruling planet, and this transit will challenge you in your work, health, and daily routines. As a fixed water sign, you tend to resist changes in your foundational structures, but Pluto in Aquarius will invite transformation in how you approach your everyday life, your health habits, and your professional responsibilities. Aquarius energy asks you to innovate and detach from old ways of doing things, so this is a time to let go of any outdated structures that are limiting your growth.

  
  

  Possible Themes:

  • Work-life balance: Your daily routines and work habits may undergo a significant transformation. Pluto will challenge you to rethink your professional goals, your relationship with power in the workplace, and how you balance work with personal life.

  • Health and wellness: Aquarius rules technology, so you might experiment with new health regimens or incorporate technology into your fitness and wellness routines. Be open to unconventional or cutting-edge approaches to your physical well-being.

  • Shifting your approach to service: You may feel a strong push to become more involved in causes or organizations that support the collective good. This could be a time for you to rethink your role in the community and how you contribute to broader social or humanitarian efforts.

Aquarius

• Pluto in your sign will be one of the most intense and transformative transits for Aquarius in over a century, since Pluto moves very slowly through the zodiac. As a fixed air sign, you’re likely to experience deep, foundational changes within yourself, your identity, and your life path. Aquarius is associated with freedom, individuality, and progressive ideals, and Pluto’s transit here will demand that you evolve in your understanding of your own power, autonomy, and role in the world.

  
  

  Possible Themes:

  • Personal transformation: This is a time when you may undergo a complete transformation in how you express your individuality. Your appearance, personality, and even your beliefs about who you are and what you stand for could go through dramatic changes.

  • Releasing old ideals: Aquarius has a tendency to hold onto progressive, intellectual ideals, but Pluto may force you to release rigid beliefs that are no longer serving you. You may become more willing to embrace a deeper, more spiritual or transformative version of your true self.

  • Power struggles with authority: As Pluto transits through your sign, you might experience intense confrontations with authority figures or other people who challenge your freedom. This is a time to release any need to resist change and instead embrace your own inner power.
