Transit (moving) Pluto is gearing up to exit Capricorn, and move into Aquarius soon. Pluto will be back-and-forth between the two signs through 2024 though, and while in Capricorn, will spend the bulk of its time anaretic. What does this mean?

In transit, transit Pluto brings transformations. Sometimes this is traumatizing, and Pluto destroys everything in its path, forcing us to rise from the ashes. This normally happens with transit Pluto conjunct, square, or opposite a natal planet, especially the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, or Ceres.

In the natal chart, the bodies at the anaretic degree have super heightened energy, and this is usually overwhelming and scary so we avoid it (though some go in the opposite direction and play it up too much, to their detriment). 

Some will collapse, scandals may come out, change may be forced, and it can seem like it comes out of nowhere, when really, it’s been building up for a long time and we just haven’t seen it until it blows.

Some people in high places will likely come crashing down to Earth, and this can be a good thing in the long run, though it may not seem like it at the time, and it may create some chaos when it happens.

We have to avoid giving in to the intensity of Pluto though, and try to get some control over it. It can be easy to let passions run wild, and we end up doing things we regret and can’t undo. Self-control is very important here.

It’s difficult for entire countries and corporations to transform willingly (hence so much punishment awaits them), however as individuals, we can make the choice to transform of our own volition. This will be very important while Pluto is anaretic in Capricorn, and can help smooth challenges so we’re not experiencing the chaos that may seem to plague everywhere else.

This will be especially important for anyone who has a natal planet, angle, or other body at the anaretic degree. It doesn’t matter the Zodiac sign; I find with the anaretic degree, the aspect doesn’t matter, just being at that degree, it’ll be lit up. If that’s you, give focus on transforming with whatever the point rules.

For everyone, look to the house in your natal chart 29 degrees Capricorn falls. The areas of life ruled by that house can be where transformation is focused. Work to transform from the roots, and make use of passion to make progress with it.

As you transform, keep in mind what’s right, ethical, responsible, and smart. Capricorn is naturally ruled by Saturn, so if you’re cutting corners, not doing homework, being impulsive, or being inconsiderate, this can blow up in your face in a big way. If things blow up, this is likely why! So change what you’re doing.

We’ve been in a strong period for a massive widespread shift in the world that started in 2020 with the Capricorn stellium. It’s continued in 2021 and 2022, and kicks up in 2023 thanks to Pluto. So, get ready!
