Pluto rules Scorpio and is the planet of death, rebirth, spiritual awakening, and transformation. (Learn about different planets and their meanings in our Level 1 astrology workshop).
We all have 12 houses in our chart and wherever we have Pluto in our chart can tell us a whole lot about our trauma, healing and transformations in this lifetime. In this article, we will not be looking at the sign in which we have Pluto, but the house that we have it in.
If you are new to astrology, go to astro.com, generate your birth chart, and then locate where you have the Pluto symbolized as P with a tail inside the wheel sliced into 12 pies, each pie numbered as 1,2,3… Voila! Once you have done that, come back here and find what that means for you. Don’t forget to scroll till the end of this article to get some journal prompts to work with this placement.
PLUTO IN 1ST HOUSE
Pluto in your first house speaks about your transformation occuring through your own identity, your own body, self-expression, and self-awareness. You will likely dive into self-development or self-awareness work to transform the trajectory of your life. Your presence is here to be a catalyst by simply embracing your own journey. You are a role model and your very evolution occurs through your self-awakening.
PLUTO IN 2ND HOUSE:
If you have Pluto in your 2nd house, you are here to witness major transformation and evolution through your money and wealth. Your relationship with your finances is going to be the catalyst of your soul transformation in this lifetime. The more you allow change and transformation, the more flow you will experience in your money and wealth.
PLUTO IN 3RD HOUSE:
If you have Pluto in your 3rd house, your transformation from darkness to light will occur through your local community. Your casual banter with your neighbors or friends you grew up with is not so casual and there will often be trauma or/and healing associated with this exchange. Your communication and interpersonal skills will be a gateway of your transformation and healing.
PLUTO IN 4th HOUSE
If you have pluto in your fourth house, your big cycles of death and rebirth will always come through your childhood and family. You might be someone who experienced a traumatic childhood or family experience and your healing is here to transmute the collective generational trauma and free your lineage. Your relationship with your family will continue to bring huge transformations in your life. This could instigate the need to run away from all family ties and attachments into isolation, but instead, answer the call to lean towards it since it’s the very place where your heart opens.
PLUTO IN 5th HOUSE:
If you have Pluto in your fifth house, your creativity and dating life can be the places where you experience transformational healing. Your art, hobbies or passion, and romance are not simply leisure but catalysts of great awakening. Any difficulty you face in this area of your life is here to rebirth you and bring you closer to the Universe and your authentic nature.
PLUTO IN 6th HOUSE:
If you have Pluto in your 6th house, your transformation will occur through your health and job. Perhaps you go through a bad burnout only to realize your job doesn’t fulfill you? This is one of the ways in which you can experience awakening, trauma, healing and transformation. Your health could also be a space of lifetime of dedication so that you can understand and consequently teach others the value of our sacred vessels. The sixth house is always about our daily routines and jobs. So for you your workspace and what you do for a living can be a place of healing for you. It could really be more transformational than other people around you, so don’t force yourself to stay lukewarm about it like others. For others, it could be just a job, but for you, it could be very intense.
PLUTO IN 7th HOUSE
Your marriage or romantic relationship could be a catalyst of growth and transformation. Maybe you go through a heartbreaking separation that leads to your transformation or on the contrary you come across your twin flame who changes the entire trajectory of your life. Either way, this could look like cycles of deaths and rebirths occuring through personal relationships which can be very uncomfortable but also very rewarding since it can bring you the healing that you need.
PLUTO IN 8th HOUSE:
If you have Pluto in your eighth house, you are living a life of intense transformation. Instead of falling into blaming these cycles of deaths and rebirths, embrace this as a gift to the world teaching everyone how to transcend the seasons of darkness. You could be someone who experiences deep spiritual healing through occult practices like tarot or energy healing and decide to share this gift.
PLUTO IN 9th HOUSE:
If you have pluto in your ninth house, travel, learning, and spirituality will play a major role in your transformation journey. You could go on from being a free spirit to a family man in this lifetime, or alternatively, vice-versa can happen as you get out of your comfort zone and start exploring yourself through these new-age concepts. You could totally be someone whose a philosophical wanderer or someone who takes a trip that changes his entire life.
PLUTO IN 10th HOUSE
If you have Pluto in your tenth house, you should let go of looking for stability in your career. And this is not bad per se. You are here to teach people how to thrive in change through your own journey of personal transformation and growth through your life’s work. You might be someone who goes through big highs and lows in your career – maybe moments of fame to famine, but always knows that it’s part of your learning curve.
PLUTO IN 11th HOUSE:
If you have Pluto in your eleventh house, your friendships play a huge role in the way you evolve. Everyone you connect with, you connect with on a soul level, and in spite, of being friendships or social connections, they can bring transformation and growth lessons for you. Perhaps your circle changes many times in your life or perhaps it remains just the same, either way, these people are here to trigger and heal you on deeper levels than you can fathom logically.
PLUTO IN 12th HOUSE:
If you have Pluto in your twelfth house, soul-level transformation is a big part of your life. It’s like you know on a deep level that you live in two worlds. These two worlds can seem very distant but almost overlapping at the same time. You are very connected to the astral realms and often find yourself connecting with unseen forces or energies. For some of you, this could be your subconscious mind taking you on daydreaming trips. You might never be able to explain to anyone how this transformation occurs for you, but, it does in an unseen, beneath-the-surface manner. Allow yourself to go deeper with the unseen with a balance between the real world and your own hermit world. Practice grounding to return to your body often. You are fighting wars no one, including you many times, know nothing about.
