Transiting Saturn on natal Pluto: building and breaking structures

Transiting Saturn conjunct natal Pluto

Conservative and traditional Saturn meets Pluto, the planet of renewals and revolutions.

While Saturn builds and keeps structures, Pluto wants to disrupt them.

The outcome of this transit depends much on your attitude. If you acknowledge and accept Saturn's role in your life, then you can change the structures of your life in a gradual, rational and effective way.

If you see Saturn as only a repressing agent for your will to subvert, then frustration will come, which might give space to sudden violent changes.

During this transit you might experience financial losses which trigger your survival instincts.

This is a conflicting time in your life.

There's a strong will to change old structures in your life and in the world, but at the same time a strong resistance to renewal.

Those two opposite energies might build a dangerous inner tension and cause frustration.

If the tension is not well addressed, it might “resolve” in sudden actions and incidents.

It takes patience to accept that the changes might be much slower than your desire to transform your life.

This time might represent the highest point of your plans if you worked accurately and with steadfastness, while at the same time being open to the deep changes Pluto wants.

In any case, through this transit you might experience situations or people opposing your goals, which you need to address with patience.

Since you can now see that the results of your long-time efforts are near, you might become highly frustrated and push even further by working too hard.

Your desire to preserve tradition and history is under threat from a growing tension that is leading you toward transformation. You are being urged to let go and release yet feel an obligation to hold on to the past.

You may feel guilty about moving on from a relationship you have outgrown, for example. You may also feel responsible to stay in a stagnant job even though you are at the same time feeling compelled to redefine your career path.

Change is underfoot whether you fully embrace it now or not. Try to find ways to honor lessons from the past and the people or structures that have been pillars in your life up until now, know that you are ready to embark on a new phase and no longer need the limitations with which you have become comfortable.
