It transforms all that it comes in contact with. At this time in history this energy is increasing in power and having a tremendous effect upon the evolution on the Human race. The increase of spiritual consciousness both inner and outer, the increased awareness of pollution, corruption, terrorism, genocide disasters, and the coming destruction of our civilization due to our own filth and the entrance into the age of Aquarius, is spearheaded by Plutonian energy.

Pluto cycle's have a great impact upon the majority of your relationships, be they business, family, friends or intimate. You will want a higher quality and greater intensity in your interactions during this time frame. It is a time when the superficial aspects and experiences will not be attractive, as the energy cycle is one that creates the desire to delve deeply so as to affect the very core of your being. Due to the slowness, the cycle will strongly effect each sensitive points in a Birth Chart, once, or twice, in a lifetime. Astrologically, this planet, when strongly placed in an individual's Birth Chart, makes them "DIFFERENT". This energy is prominent in Healers, Gurus, Masters, Criminals, Gangsters, Executioners, Teachers, Geniuses, Terrorist, and Hell's Angels. Such people are endowed with great personal magnetism and charisma. The same energy is at work during a cycle; it is the use the individual puts it to that makes the difference. Pluto's energy creates non-conformists whose magnetic personalities draw others to them. Whether these individuals use their powers for good or ill depends on their Heart and state of development, or awareness of God's and Nature's LAWS.

Pluto is Power and Magic. It represents the purifying fire through which we must all pass in order to reach a higher and more rewarding level of existence. The first step in this process is to burn away what is old and outworn. Once the old patterns are removed, you are ready for it's magic and power in creating a bran new start in a new direction. Transformation is Powerful and Magical in it's very nature. There is tremendous power available during this cycle for creative and destructive enterprises. The choice is yours.

The planet of Ascension. The old must be let go, in order to Ascend. Pluto can leave the place looking like a wasteland of total destruct.

The easy angled cycles have the same energy, but the positive and rewarding aspects are easier to assimilate in a positive and uplifting manner.

The purpose is to remove the old inhibiting patterns you have developed emotionally, intellectually, physically and spiritually. The more resistance there is to the process of this change, the more difficult and painful the transitional events will be. You must let GO of what you are supposed to let go of.

You can also experience breakdowns, as the mental, emotional structures and habit patterns cease to work. We experience all kinds of negative stuff coming up from our unconscious, like jealousy, possessiveness, manipulation and other negative aspects of our being which we don't like, and are very reluctant to accept. This can be painful as these patterns start to become very evident and obvious to others....but not necessarily noticed by self. Pluto hides it from you. Even though we dislike these energies, we must deal with them. This can be very scary. Most people have a hard time letting the disintegration take place. They fight with all the energy and power they can muster from the very core of their being in order to prevent their perceived destruction. There is no shortage of energy during a Pluto cycle! These reactions cause you to try to control and manipulate all that is around, trying desperately to keep the environment safe. This struggle may lead deeper into the deaths of darkness leaving you somewhere between madness and sanity. It's a very dangerous and tight spot! Very often the people around, will be appalled, amazed and dumbfounded by the intensity of pain and suffering being experienced. If you have ever be close to someone under the stress of a strong Pluto cycle, you will have experienced them as if they were an atomic reactor. You can feel the energy twenty feet away....and can't get any closer!

We usually experience some kind of crisis. This process brings destruction and decay in some area of our lives. Machinery can break down, partnerships can be dissolved or transformed, Marriage or divorce, businesses start or end. Once completed, Pluto has established a new order to replace the old one. He can bring the most intense and memorable experiences into our lives in a very dumbfounding and appalling manner. The explosion of the Space Shuttle and death of the seven astronauts in such an appalling, shocking and devastating manner is an example of one kind of energy that Pluto symbolizes. Some events are memorable and take people ten to twenty years to properly integrate the experience.

In the work place this energy may manifest itself in conflicts among co-workers, or between employers and employees as some individuals attempt to manipulate or control others. Real Power struggles. Solutions to the problems will present themselves as the cycle wears on, be careful to choose those which benefit all parties. Don't serve yourself at the expense of others as the consequences of wrong action will rebound after the cycle passes. When Pluto leaves, so does the rug. If the changes needed in these situations are profound, the only solution may be the dissolution of a business or partnership, or a change of career.

Conflicts may arise in intimate relationships as well and it is just as important to seek equally beneficial solutions in this area as in your business dealings. If the relationship rides through this period, it will be stronger and more rewarding afterwards. In other cases, this cycle may mean the end of the relationship if one or both partners are unwilling to compromise on points of contention. Understanding the forces at work here should help you make the right decisions, and the Plutonian energy itself will help bring the truth to light and end your confusion. You should be aware that any decision taken will be permanent....leaving lasting impressions. Because of Pluto's nature, affecting endings and beginnings, if you break off a close relationship at this time, there will be no way to mend the rift later on, unless a miracle happens. Don't slip, it's important to your own inner peace and happiness.

This energy effects the very core of your being. It comes up from the deepest depths within you, like the recesses of space which are dark and cold. Since your external life condition is created by your inner desires and all you actions are thus motivated, if you don't take notice of the inner changes that you are being warned to make, then you will experience explosions in your inner world as well as your outer world. Pluto gives you plenty of time to notice and make the changes before he instantly lays everything to waist. Pluto does not take no for an answer. There was a lot of pressure on people before the space shuttle was sent up. They were warned and went ahead anyway. They didn't pay close attention and paid the price through tragedy.

A Pluto cycle can be compared to a blacksmith making a horseshoe. First he puts the metal into the fire and heats it up to a point where it's soft and workable. Then he takes it out of the fire and starts hammering it into a different shape. Next, he puts it into the water to cool and strengthen. Then he keeps repeating the cycle until the metal is changed into a horseshoe. This is the process of inner change that Pluto is famous for. It's not an easy process to withstand, but it's rewards are a freer, happier and stronger character helping you create a more rewarding and successful life style. All stemming from a stronger connection to your own inner self.

Remember, It's very important to allow the transformation to take place. By trying to avoid, dodge, repress or ignore it, you will force some kind of explosion and the inevitable will probably take place anyway, in a more destructive manner than otherwise. When the energy comes out negatively we experience being raped, robbed, beaten, our home burnt to the ground, a murder or some other kind of horrifying experience, bringing us to within an inch of our lives in order to teach us the spiritual and natural laws we are supposed to be following in order to happy and successful.

People coming into your life will be the agent of transformation, being either good or evil. They may be part of organized crime, revolutionary groups or organizations which have the elements of secrecy, subversion and destruction. Or they may belong to organizations which try to transform peoples lives into something of worth like Alcoholics Anonymous or new age therapies working towards physical, mental and spiritual healing and growth. Another likely possibility is that they are just ordinary people who will have a strong and powerful transformational effect upon you. Remember, that enemies will teach you how to fight, and from out of the tremendous power struggle you will awaken undeveloped abilities and talents you were previously unaware of. New people don't have to enter your life to have the above take place, it can be people who are already present. It is also very likely to have both types of experiences taking place in order for you to be presented with a choice. And choose you must!

Pluto brings situations that test the courage that a person has about their own beliefs. Can you live what you believe? When a person believes that something is true, or should we say knows that it is TRUE, he is willing to go through ridicule, persecution, exile, misery and torment in order to defend and fight for what he believes. It strengthens attitudes, emotions, beliefs, clarifies directions and makes a person willing to obliterate and anil that which contradicts the truth. Plutonian energy also clarifies the truth and makes it clearer so that there is no more confusion about it. It is like a testing. Can you pass the test? If you do you will be freed from many internal and external restrictions. Remember, to pass, you must follow God's and Natures laws.

This cycle signifies the completion of a phase in our lives with a deep rooted change in our attitudes and emotions, the emergence of a new way comes into manifestation. The changes that take place are at such a deep level that it takes time for the emergence of these changes into the visible.

Most of us at times would like our lives to change for the better. These are the times when these changes are likely to take place. After the Pluto cycle we are usually a lot happier than we were before as it has established a new order and we are much more centred and anchored.

Pluto cycles do not have to effect us in a negative manner. Tremendous growth opportunities exist at these times. You can move from poverty to riches, change a bad relationship into a good one. Change to a healthier diet or start a new career.

Pluto experiences put us in touch with our own power center, causing an awakening to new possibilities and capabilities that were previously dormant.

The negative side of Pluto cycles usually occurs during the approaching half of the cycle and the positive aspects begin as the cycle passes its peak. Going through the cycle can be compared to climbing a hill: going up is difficult, going down is easy; you don't make it to the top on the first attempt - you do a little backsliding.

Pluto cycles, like all cycles, are not to be FEARED; just respected. If you cause harm through selfish motives, you will pay for it eventually. As you sow so shall you reap. If you don't harm or cause needless pain through your own selfishness, then you may have your life drastically altered, but you will come through it way ahead. As you sow so shall you reap, it works two ways.
