Pluto in Aries in the BirthChart

It’s interesting how the concept of generation we have used all through the 20th century has some parallels with Pluto’s positionings. People born in generations where Pluto has already reached a different sign could have very distinct challenges, inner possibilities, concepts of power and ways to deal with changes and transitions in society, when compared to others.

Latest periods of Pluto in Aries: 1821 to 1852
Suggests competition, willpower, and a drive to lead. 

Pluto in Aries intensified the principles of willpower manifested through a pioneering spirit, initiative, courage, and forcing one’s way into things, brusquer and more impulsive, by pushing – to the “all or nothing” extreme – the impetus to impose the leadership of a generation. Aries evokes the individual values of freedom, to transform and destroy obstacles, without really recognizing one’s limits.

In 1848, Europe witnessed revolutionary uprisings, such as the Communist Manifesto. A watershed on ideologies, at times social, at times liberal. In these years there was also a greater propagation of spiritualism and psychology as areas of scientific knowledge. The use of psychography (aka automatic writing) became public in the USA, and Allan Kardec made the first contacts with the spirits. Also in 1848, Wilhelm Wundt created Scientific Psychology. Already a relevant, symbolic and revealing fact of the less luminous side of Aries in a context of world transformation, is the emergence of the modern handgun, the revolver, in 1836. This symbolically reveals an extreme aspect of Pluto in Aries when it comes to obstinacy and compulsion to impose one's own will, while serving one's own ends. Even if it means taking someone's life.

Pluto governs the collective subconscious and the overflow of questions in the society of our time. This takes place in view of the need to eliminate, transform and transmute the ideas, rules and impositions of previous periods. But, not everyone is a channel of expression of the powerful and disturbing energies of this planet. Some iconic personalities will live through the extreme challenges of the desires of their time first-hand. The extreme and cathartic events in the lives of these personalities will provoke deep reflections as they influence the next generations, often in a transcendent and illuminating way. Historical works and extraordinary deeds may arise from this.
