Could you share any experiences you may have had with transiting Pluto conjuncting your natal Mercury?
Thanks,
Jana
I was already obsessed with truth in a deep sense, and this transit has only driven this desire further.
My Mercury is 29 deg Capricorn (My DSC is 25 deg Cap).
With much fury, I am after studying ethics, morals, and a couple of religions that are very personal to me. Pluto is making a second approach (or third, I forget). Last time I was a bit ambivalent but now I am absolutely certain that when I hear or am being told something that is a rule, code, doctrine, idea, or anything persuasive, whether or not it negatively objectifies the subject or something within the path towards some end, disavows metaphysical reality, circular arguments, etc.
Much is clear to me now, logically speaking. What has manifested is a great desire to religiously and spiritually attune myself while firmly and confidently remaining within my center of universal being. I have learned that the depth of my being, which desires to consecrate all that I do, has and will bring great peace to myself and my immediate family.
My transit is not near complete. I have several more years of this. My chart and other transits reflect how my earth and soul being are within a massive tune-up.
I love the being & character I am and are becoming.
thank you so much for your thoughtful reply. It sounds like you have made wonderful use of Pluto's energies. Could I ask you how your natal Pluto is aspected; I think that gives an idea about the subsequent transits
I have Mercury at 26 degrees Cap and have already had the Sun/Venus/Mars in Cap conjunction with transiting Pluto in recent years. I'm having a hard time teasing out the effects of each, as they are so close.
I've been thinking about Pluto as the "transformer" and metamorphosis. There is a point at which the catapillar in the cocoon liquifies to mush before it starts developing into the butterfly. I really wonder what is going to emerge from all this.
@jana I wonder as well but stop there, for if I truly knew, I probably would lose some motivation to follow through, changing it in some way, whatever "it" is.
Well, my natal Pluto is 2deg Scorpio (4th). Opposes my moon, while both moon and pluto sextile Cap Jupiter and Neptune. My mercury (7th) squares both moon and pluto.
@darkaquarian " I wonder as well but stop there, for if I truly knew, I probably would lose some motivation to follow through, changing it in some way, whatever "it" is."
Yes, I have surrendered to the process and Mercury is the last personal planet to get it. I keep getting washed up on the "thy will be done" beach.
@jana Oh, so such transits have passed all or most of your planets?
I have an Aquarius Sun, with other fixed signs.
I have also been told that Pluto transit squaring natal Pluto is tremendous too.
Yes, it is now conjunct Mercury...then it conjucts Jupiter (ascendant ruler)and Saturn (sun sign ruler). Transformation was in the cards lol.
Pluto square its natal pos. I don't remember but Pluto trine its natal position was memorably deep. You won't experience that until you are much older.
This has been an interesting one. On the positive side the mental focus and energy served me well with my studies.
A downfall for me has been an increase in dark, negative thoughts leading to increased anxiety and a tad of OCD. Natally, my Sun and Mercury have a nice trine to Pluto and I appreciate this energy. Having transit Pluto on top of my Mercury is frankly a bit too much. I am finding I have to implement daily cognitive strategies to overshadow Plutos dark cloak.
Even though it’s tricky, I am embracing this challenge and hoping to come out of it with greater mind control/mastery.
I have been living with Pluto transiting my natal Mercury at 22 Capricorn (VI house) for the past few years.
Shall we say that at the end of 2018 I gave up on a fast-paced and rather successful job as I was mentally and physically exhausted from the endless race. I fell ill and went into a 'situation' with my ex-employer. I also saw no meaning in doing what I was doing at that point. On top of that Uranus was transiting my MC and then my Xth house at the time. Still is.
These past few years I went to study teaching and spirituality, namely, antroposophy, which took 4 instead of 3 years due to lockdowns and restrictions we all remember too well. I didn't manage to get into teaching but I am still working on my spiritual growth (painful at times) and trying to keep up with antroposophy.
Let's say overall the results have been mixed. I haven't worked properly since the end of 2018 with only random jobs here and there in 2022 removed link Everything has been on hiatus professionally. This has required spirit and strength but sometimes I wonder if this is ever going to resolve itself in a positive manner. I am after all a Capricorn sun with a VI house Mercury. I need work but it has to make sense.
Oh, and I have had Pluto transit my Vth house Capricorn sun for years before that. I became a mother and initally it wasn't easy. It was just my husband and I and our little son trying to adjust to a new life, no help from family, no one near.
This must be exhaustive, but not exhausting hopefully.
Have a wonderful day.
