Pluto in Aquarius

"I have become obsessed with how we can be movements like flocks of birds, underground power like whispering mushrooms..."

–adrienne maree brown, Emergent Strategy

Pluto, moving like the mighty, transpersonal snail it is, will be in Aquarius until 2044, with a last dip back into Capricorn from Sept-Nov 2024.

All of this Aquarian energy and Pluto carrying it forward for many years to come invites us into a space of rigorous critical mindedness and focused collective movement toward positive, liberating change.

Where the Pluto in Capricorn period (since 2008) has been so much about collective unearthing and reckoning with the truths of the past whose erasure and denial fuels oppression, Pluto's shift into Aquarius has emphasis upon breakthrough changes stemming from the reckoning with the past which lead to new, liberatory structures being co-created that support greater well-being for the collective whole.

Under Aquarian stimulus, the invitation is to come together in community, to recognize the power of the people, to have courage to question and disrupt the status quo for the sake of liberation and then experiment, experiment, experiment in service of better, life-giving futures for all beings and those yet to come.

Whether it's Aquarian energy in our birth charts, or through Aquarian transits, to break out of the socially conditioned, severely limiting box of rugged individualism and patterns of supremacy and move into community, community, community – this is one of the most precious potentials Aquarian energy has to offer us.
