Are we feeling ready for the status quo to change both drastically and permanently? The Pluto in Aquarius segment of our lives officially starts this year, encouraging us to examine what we need, want and definitely don't want! Our individual personal power and how we utilise it during this transit, will give way to intense transformation, leaving us feeling reborn into a brand new, more authentic version of ourselves.
Although there is plenty to look forward to collectively with this transit (think rebellion, revolutionary technology and a spotlight on Big Tech), there are also key parts of our own lives the we will be encouraged to shed while Pluto makes his way through the fixed air sign.
So what is Pluto in Aquarius and when is it happening?
So Pluto itself is a very slow moving planet, taking anywhere between 12 - 30 years to move through just one of the zodiac signs. It takes 248 years for Pluto to traverse the entire zodiac, making its historic and generational impact that much more significant.
We have already had several tastes of Pluto in Aquarius, between March 21st through to June 11th 2023 and again from January 20th until September 1st 2024. This is before it officially enters Aquarius on November 19th 2024 where it will stay for around 19 years until March 8th 2043. So many incredible and interesting things have happened in relation to Aquarius including in the areas of space travel, science, tech/AI and social media. But how will each sign tap into their unique inner power during this transit?

Aries Suns & Aries Risings
For you Aries, Pluto will be roaming through your 11th house of friends, groups and long term goals for the future.

If you utilise this energy well, you could produce some fantastic outcomes while on your quest for deeper meaning and purpose in life.
