ABOUT PLUTO
Pluto is the planet of transformation. It deals with our subconscious and anything that is taboo or 'below the surface'. When it comes to Pluto, we can look to themes of rebirth and renewal, endings and new beginnings, and spiritual growth. Pluto is also associated with power, control, and destruction.
Pluto is symbolized by the phoenix, which can rise out of the ashes and be born again from the flames (destruction), as well as the scorpion, snake, and eagle. Through pressure, we are changed and transformed, much like a diamond forms from rocks.
Pluto is ultimately about empowerment and how we deal with power. Do we abuse power or wield it to help others? Do we act from our id (subconscious) or our ego (conscious awareness)? Do we give our power away through codependency and keeping ourselves small?
The shadow side of Pluto (every planet has one!) is when we lean too far into the realm of power and destruction, wanting to control and manipulate for our own end. We’re influenced by our ego and can be possessive, jealous, angry, suspicious, vindictive, and dominating.
