Pluto in Aquarius: A Journey into the Invisible in the Age 2023-2044

Learn how the transits of this Planet follow and how it affects your zodiac sign. Discover in the following article how Pluto's influence continues during 2023 and 2024.

A Historical Overview

In the 1st century and late 18th century, Pluto transited Aquarius, coinciding with two movements that marked significant changes in history. In the 1st century, the Christian social movement emerged, and in the 18th century, the Enlightenment and the French Revolution led to a wider spread of knowledge and equality.

In both cases, these movements attempted to impose a single way of thinking and generated violence and suffering. Although they brought social improvements, they also highlight the duality of Pluto in Aquarius, which can oscillate between promoting diversity and imposing a single point of view.

Antecedents of the Previa

We are moving into the year 2023 and continue to write history in community. On March 23, shortly after the Sun enters Aries marking the equinox, Pluto will take its first steps into the sign of Aquarius for the first time since its discovery. Its entry at 0° Aquarius coincides with the point at which Jupiter and Saturn had their grand conjunction on December 21, 2020, thus inaugurating a new cycle of conjunctions in air and marking the end of a materialistic era. Thus, Pluto's entry into Aquarius stands as a powerful activator of the "knowing" paradigm in contrast to the "having" paradigm.

This transit will culminate in 2024 and will last for approximately 20 years. This event will be the protagonist of front pages and astrological discussions in the coming months. In 2023, Saturn will also enter the sign of Pisces, completing a cycle through the zodiac, accompanying the recently begun Jupiter-Neptune cycle in Pisces. In addition, Jupiter and the Nodes will activate the energy of Aries while accompanying Chiron in its transit through this sign. However, Pluto will undoubtedly be the main actor. With its crossing from Capricorn to Aquarius, significant social transformations are expected.

Each entry of a slow planet into a new sign becomes a portal to a new phase for all of humanity. Although each transit has its own astrological map, there are common symbologies in the underlying historical events. In this article, a journey through history will be taken to connect past events in which Pluto transited Aquarius, and thus bring its symbolism into the present. An objective perspective will be sought, avoiding excessively positive tendencies when dealing with certain signs and planets. Sometimes, when talking about certain planets and signs, we focus only on their luminous side and overlook their shadow.

The Archetype and its Symbolism

Pluto represents the hidden wealth beyond the visible. In the natal chart, it symbolizes the domain of the underworld into which we must descend to rescue what was forgotten, what was repressed in the past, what we did not dare to live. Only by connecting with these lost parts of ourselves and the collective can we integrate them and use them authentically.

This journey through our shadows is similar to Perseus' descent into the underworld, facing his own hidden and forgotten part, personified by Medusa. By defeating Medusa, Perseus not only "kills" her, but also acquires her power and wisdom. In this way, Pluto connects us with our complete and empowered self through the shadow.

For its part, the sign of Aquarius has been associated with the French Revolution and the idea of equality, liberty and fraternity. Before the discovery of Uranus, it was related to the rains that fertilized the earth, such as the waters of the Nile or the Universal Flood.

The image of the water carrier pouring his knowledge and spirituality to the world is also linked to Aquarius. However, the sign faces its own dilemma in trying to balance freedom of expression and advancement with the need to maintain close ties and relationships.
