Venus with conjunct Pluto in Capricorn on December 1, 2011. This is one hard core deal.  Venus rules love and money.  Pluto is concerned with power, the shadow of the collective, sex, exchange of energy, death, the unconscious and all things unfathomable. Capricorn is concerned with status and security, reality, integrity and karma.  When you combine these things, you come up with some wicked combinations.

  • The casting couch.
  • Backroom deals by power brokers.
  • A gay politician with a beard (wife).
  • A kept woman.
  • A deal with the devil.
  • BDSM
  • A father raping his daughter.
  • Kiss of death.
  • Till death do us part.
  • Vendetta against a lover
  • Damaged reputation

It’s not all negative but it is all serious.  For example, two (Venus) powerful (Pluto), authoritative (Saturn) people may agree to work together for mutual benefit.  This is good but it still intense because the individuals are radiating power as they make a commitment.  You can make millions under an aspect like this, it’s just going to call up all your skills.

On other fronts, relationships will also end under this aspect. In most cases this will be in both parties best interest.  For example if you’re ate up with a obsession over someone, you’re best off to gain control of it. In other cases, the police or a judge may be involved. The point here is that for many, love and money karma will come home.

Also, whenever Pluto and Venus mix it up, ex-lovers (I call them corpses) tend to show up and with the conjunction in Capricorn, this may be particularly burdensome.  They may come back to settle a debt and if you owe the money, or whatever it is they want, I’d pay it!  On the other hand, if you don’t owe the debt, you may have to defend (Capricorn) against a particularly venomous (Pluto) ex-love (Venus).  If this happens, expect to be bugged out (Pluto) and just learn all you can (Capricorn).

Last, this aspect is also potentially healing.  People who with some psychological sophistication, who do right by others are most likely to pull this off.

This conjunction takes place @ 6 Capricorn. If you have planets or angles of your chart between 2-10 Cardinal, you are sure to be personally affected but everyone is going to have awareness of this at some level.  Check the house in your chart where the conjunction falls for insight.

PHEW, I am so glad you addressed this, I gawked at my chart last time trying to figure this out. It hits my 8 degree cappy moon in my 10th house.

Well I’m not sure about the conjunction…I have the opposition natally and am experiencing the transit by square natally and trine by progression.

I am definitely going to orient myself towards healing if at all possible. Already seeing hints of this with a recent surprise yet very welcome meeting with a dead loved one’s ex. He was vocal about how he felt our meeting was a good and potentially healing occurrence.

I’m signed up with my best friend to make soap that day (for Xmas gifts). Mixing up raw materials into a thing of beauty, sounds good to me!

There’s a beautiful article here http://www.skygrooves.com/articles/timing/index.html on Venus-Pluto clash, which in Stevie’s case (combined with other aspects) led to stardom with Fleetwood Mac – and the loss of Lindsey as her partner.

I’ve experienced the gay version of the casting couch many a time. Being especially in my youth very naive, I very often failed to notice the sexual aspect of friendly elderly men in power’s interest for my pretty tenor voice. When I finally did, I kept on playing naive, and most of the time got away with it.

I have Venus as my chart ruler, on 8 Libra, so she’ll be in the middle of the great Pluto/Uranus square next summer.. And I’m rather excited. Not so naive anymore, though.

I knew a Venus/Pluto person once who was interested in prostitution, but not to get into it, but to save the children from child trafficking. She was an Aquarian with Venus and Pluto conjunct both in Scorpio and in the 8th house.

Hits my Jupiter in 11th house Cap and Pluto in 7th house Libra. Hits ox’s 11th house Pluto Merc Conj in Libra and 8th house Saturn in Cancer. Hits the Aquarian (my youngest) on his Libra AC and Cancer MC.

Thanks for the heads up!

Hmmm…

Venus/Pluto ON 6 degrees cap in my 3rd house will actually SEXTILE my natal Venus/Pluto ON 7 degrees Scorpio.

I have been have Major money issues for the past 6 months. It’s to the point now that I will lose my License on Wensday if I don’t come up with money for car insurance. I own my landlord $400.00 for rent that went missing back in july (I paid it, but no one knows where it went, so I’m paying it again for my own intergity) and I hit some guys car last month in a bank parking lot, and the scratch and dent job is costing him $800.00 (Really?) So I’m paying that too.

I used to be able to go POOF and will money into being, but that sooooooo not happening right now. ARGH!!! I even have 2 hughes checks coming in.. but 2 weeks from now. Which means that if I dont get the car insurance paid, I’m going to have to pay so much more to get my license re-instated, so it’s like I have no money at all to go around and pay my other debts.

It really is a hole I’m trying to crawl out of.

Anywho, thats what DEC 1 makes me think of.

I would love to BELIEVE that some magical high-paying freelance work is going to come by and fix all my problems…

My Jupiter is 6 degrees Cap in the 1st and my Ascendant is 4 degrees Cap.

I have Venus conj. Pluto natally in Libra in the 9th.

Should I hide under the bed all day?

Sooo…Time to seriously reconsider the tentative trip to Sin City that weekend?…Then again, it may be just what the doctor ordered. Money, sex power…a whole desert to hide bodies if warranted (I kid, I kid!). Interesting though. Thanks for the heads-up!

Beloved Moon-Sometimes you can arrange a short-term signature loan with your bank using the evidence of pending payments to you as the collateral. The interest rates are generally quite reasonable–and while its not ideal, neither is being strung out financially due to timing/unplanned expenses.

I’m only scared because I might lose my singledom around that transit…venus hits my DC and pluto is on my 7th. :( and my saturn in libra is about to hit my natal saturn!! So for a freedom loving sag, this means compromise..

fine. I’m ready for that BIG love.

I expect to be personally effected. The conjunction will be square my Aries Sun at 4 degrees.

I’m feeling solid in my current relationship, so have no worries there and I don’t owe any corpses (in fact the opposite, so maybe they will get hit with a dose of karma);-).

So, I’m hoping for the healing power of this energy. Or maybe I can make one of those million dollar deals (it will be conjunct in my 2nd house)- I got skills and I’m not afraid to use them!

Interesting. I have 7Cap Moon in the 10th. I also have 8Can Sun (also Cardinal) in the 4th.

I have been concerned about a potential damaged reputation affecting my career for months now. Maybe I’ll get clarification of that around the 1st, so maybe I can defend myself? Or maybe I’m just paranoid. In anycase, bring it on.

You know that cardinal cross smackdown?

Yeah, I’m right back there. Cardinal T square natally which includes Venus, Mars, Pluto, Uranus, and finally Jupiter at 6 Capricorn in my 8th.

I’ll spare you the details but I know at least one person who is willing to make this intense and deep fun for both of us. :D

:) . Pretty interesting.

I’m so Venus/Pluto you could put me into a fountain pen and I would write you an endless tale of love and betrayal. And I’m talking endless, to the grave and back again.

But I am so not afraid of this shit anymore. Because here is the real issue with Pluto: you have to realize you are doing it, *and stop doing it.* Once you figure that out, well, man, you gained a hundred IQ points overnight.

It’s hitting my (empty) 5th house, squaring my natal Moon, and trining my natal Pluto. I’m not in a relationship, and my exes are both dead (for real), so I have no idea how to parse this.

mahchi

It’s in my 5th house and doesn’t hit anything natally – except knowing that Jupiter is in Taurus and Mars in Virgo and there’s also a grand earth trine…that would be interesting since the Mars part will touch my natal stellium. I think this is a good thing for me.

Thanks CP Griffin!! I’ll try!

I actually was looking at Credit Unions in the area, and one of them had a holiday loan out, so I applied for it. I have bad credit, but ::fingers crossed::

I have never seen a personal loan at my own bank. But I’ve never asked. I will do that tomorrow, or Monday. Maybe they will go easier on me since they ARE my bank.

This transit will fall conjunct my sun in the 7th house opposite my ascendent. My natal Venus in Scorpio trining Saturn is beyond ready for this energy. I’m literally looking very forward to a great relief/release. To boot…that Lunar Eclipse at 2 degrees Sag on Nov. 26th falls exactly conjunct my moon which forms a bit of a stellium with Neptune and that natal Scorpio Venus. My love life is ‘Godfather II’ sexy right now. I have absolutely played by ALL the rules and kept it very real and earnest in my love life even when others have been less than stellar with me in the honesty department. I endured all manner of gaslighting and gameplaying under those wicked cardinal grand crosses of summer 2011. I’m ready to kick certain folks in my life out of bed forever and invite a certain other to bed forever. Loyalty and love do pay off in the end. Spoken like a true Capricorn I suppose…..Enough of all this waiting…I am ready to build life finally….

This will be in my 9th. This is also when the Mass (I’m Catholic) will be changing. Interesting (and possibly illuminating) coincidence.

I’ve been having a long dialogue with myself about religion and its role in my life since this Pluto transit started.

As for Venus/Pluto, I was “born that way”…LOL! My conjunction’s in late Virgo.

mudlikesubstance
mudlikesubstance

well this conjunction will square my natal v/p square. ;)

My reaction to this is likely to more a reflection of how my body feels today and so I don’t have a good reaction to how this will play. All I know is that I”m tired and my body hurts (worked hard physical stuff yesterday and day before).

This falls in my 11th. Trines my Pluto Uranus Virgo 7th. Sextiles my Moon Chiron Pisces 1st. Squares my Sun Aries 2nd.

Things have been hitting my 7/11th houses all year. I have been in contact with my friends more now that I moved and am divorced, however, I have not joined any groups or made new friends (aside from the virtual group here).

I have not found a new boyfriend through friends yet.

Whatever happens, it should be good for me, but I don’t have any feelings on this one. I’ll be on the lookout to see what pops up unexpectedly in the relationship department. Maybe some friends will invite me out.

So I gather it’s not the best day to comply with a subpoena to appear for an interview with an Internal Revenue agent? Or would this be a really good time to NOT comply – have your lawyers try to get you out of it by pulling strings? There is A LOT of money to answer for and involves a celebrity of sorts. Any thoughts?

I have NO IDEA what to expect…Venus/Pluto conjuncts my progressed descendent (by 4 degrees), progressed Mercury (natal chart ruler, by 1 degree)and (!)progressed Point of Fortune (exact). I’m really hoping for something fabulous on the relationship front…it’s been a (tough) LONG two years. I hate to say it but it squares progressed Pluto and Mars in the fifth. OUCH. looks like no relief

in my natal chart it’s in my 2nd house. in my relocation chart, it’s in my 9th house and trine my ascendant.

i will be promoting my next show very hard at that time and i am already seeing my efforts being rewarded on that front. i am forging new professional relationships and i expect to keep working this angle and proving to others that i’m a formidable person on this front.

well i can see that the current political situation in my country (Europe – pre election) has this aspect written all over it ….the damaged reputation of main candidates, the kept wife, vendettas over big money, backroom deals and bodies that are starting to float hmmm …

In my natal chart on the other hand this aspect will be exact opposition my 6th house Sun …still in the process of looking for a job,damaged reputation…don’t even wanna go there, health is OK – which after past year schenanigans pretty much means i still have a desire to live in this world and i can still breath, my daily routine is totally out of wack though, no structure in day to day life it sucks, guessing the opposition is not gonna be easy ;)

This is happening in my 3rd house, right on my Neptune in Cap. I don’t know how this shall play out but I have this feeling that it shall be about me taking a stand especially where money is concerned. Flatmate owes me half for a utility bill since the end of October and not even boo to a ghost. Pure silence. Its about what I owe people and what they owe me. I’m not stressing though cause I can only do my best and people just have to do the minimum.

It falls in my 7th house. Pluto is there since 2008, and I´m actually learning a lot about my worn out/useless/disempowering patterns in relationships, slowly ackwoleding about the shadow of the colective regarding femenine streotypes, shadow in MY PSHYCHE.
Really I don´t worry much about how this will manisfest, as I have learned that everything is there to show us something INSIDE OURSELVES so we can GROW. But I´m sure it will have to do with what I have just mentioned.
I´ll be paying attention.

 
68.

Mary1982

Just to add: the shadow of the colective in terms of the masculine is being more clear to me to see, and acknowledge.
I have neptune natally conjunct my Desc, so for someone like me, to have the veil drop it´s actually a REAL BLESSING. Thank you PLUTO again. I love you.(I love your hardcore a**)

This is gonna be hugely intense. This conjunction hits my natal Veuns Cap 9th House. Bring on the love! and the money!(please).
Yet there has been a long power struggle with a subordinate female (looking for a better word to describe it..I am her supervisor). She is disobedient, refuses directions and a liar, yet has the support of my colleagues. Go figure. May have to pull my power on her, with integrity, or step down. Feel supported in other quarters with Earth trine hitting my earth trine. complicated!

I have to be in court midweek, for something that could leave a mark on me for at least 7 years and cost me more money than it already has. Hopefully I won’t be making deals with the devil. Conjunction falls in my first house, loosely opposite my Sun (6º) and Venus (8º) and activating numerous natal midpoints.

Well this is happening in my 6th house, right on top of Vesta, Part of Fortune and my North Node. I’m feeling it. The spiderweb of healing and understanding are happening, didn’t know from where (seemed like grace/venus) so I looked up the transits and whammy… And given I’m a natal 4th house Scorpio Sun, Merc, Venus – I’m going with the psychological sophistication route… because if debts are called now then they will have to put me in debtors prison with all my neighbors.

Oh good. This may be why this morning round 5am my mother moved back to my city and showed up at my house, without warning, asking if I was going to work that morning and oh, was I sleeping? She had a friend in tow too. And I had a sleeping baby in the house as well. Notice the “had” part. Now he’s awake…. great.

My natal moon? At 9 degrees Cancer. Welcome Pluto opposition. I see you brought back my unmedicated mother to close proximity. We use to live on separate coasts. I miss that arrangement already.

Thank you for telling it like it is! There’s comfort in that for a gal whose natal Ceres/Venus/North Node triple conjunction is 3/4 Capricorn. Can’t say (or won’t? just kidding) that my life story of the past three plus years covers your entire list of VP conjunct nasties, but you’ve hit quite a few—major betrayals-hub (now ex); two close friends; MY MOTHER!and two siblings; assaulted at work by a professional; two years later, the investigation is ongoing while former colleagues leave me holding the bag, with a very badly damaged reputation; I’ve lost my house, all savings; and there’s more…. BUT on the flip side, I am healthy, have written three plays and lots of spoken word poetry; have read a ton of books; know lots now about astrology; and I am off the workaholic grid forever! Just that wee problem of money….. oh yes, this is all happening in my 2nd house.
Love your blog!

Caroline – I find planets conjunct the IC result in particularly difficult periods. I never look forward to this aspect. The IC seems like the strongest angle in the chart, at least for me. Anyone else experience this?

Ajoke

I too pay a lot of attention to the IC and think of it as the most potent angle — the most intimately connected to my essential nature; my soul and my flow. Currently Neptune is hanging around my IC. Has been for quite some time. Lost my house this past summer. That is a Neptune:IC conjunction effect. Lots of good elements to this Neptune visit on the IC too. A very potent mixed bag.
