What is my Pluto sign?

What your generation was made to rebuild from the ground up. Enter your birth details below and the answer is computed from the Swiss Ephemeris, the same data professional software uses.

Day, month and year.

Only matters if you were born on the day it changed sign.

Town or city, and the country. Used to work out the timezone.

Does the birth time matter for this one?

Pluto takes between twelve and twenty one years to cross a sign, because its orbit is markedly elliptical. Everybody in your age group shares it.

Pluto through the twelve signs

Pluto in Aries

Roughly 1822 to 1853. Power taken by force of will, and a generation that rebuilt through initiative and conquest. Outside living memory, and listed here for completeness rather than because it describes anybody reading it.

Pluto in Taurus

Roughly 1852 to 1884. Power through ownership, and a generation that remade what land and money meant. Outside living memory.

Pluto in Gemini

Roughly 1882 to 1914. Power through information, and a generation that transformed how ideas travel. Outside living memory.

Pluto in Cancer

Roughly 1912 to 1939. Power through family, land and nation. The tradition reads this as the generation that lived the collapse and reconstruction of home in the most literal sense available.

Pluto in Leo

Roughly 1937 to 1958. Power through the individual self. Associated with a generation that placed personal freedom above inherited duty, and with the upheaval that followed from doing exactly that.

Pluto in Virgo

Roughly 1956 to 1972. Power through work, health and the body. Associated with a generation that took apart how labour and medicine are organised, and that made the details of both a moral question.

Pluto in Libra

Roughly 1971 to 1984. Power in relationship. Read as the generation that renegotiated marriage and divorce, and that had to rebuild what a partnership is on terms nobody had handed down to them.

Pluto in Scorpio

Roughly 1983 to 1995. Pluto in the sign it rules in the modern scheme. Associated with a generation shaped by what could not be spoken about, and by the insistence that it be spoken about anyway.

Pluto in Sagittarius

Roughly 1995 to 2008. Power through belief. Associated with a cohort that watched religion and ideology become the visible fault line, and that is unusually alert to who is allowed to say what is true.

Pluto in Capricorn

Roughly 2008 to 2024. Power through institutions. Read as a generation that came of age inside a financial and political crisis, and that treats the structures around it as things capable of failing.

Pluto in Aquarius

Roughly 2023 to 2044. Power through the network and the collective. The tradition reads this as a rebuilding of how groups organise themselves, which is a description of a process and not a forecast of how it ends.

Pluto in Pisces

Roughly 2043 to 2068. Power through dissolution. Nobody has been born with it yet, and it is listed here so the table is complete rather than because there is a generation to describe.

One placement is not a chart

A pluto sign is one line of about forty in a birth chart, and reading it alone is how astrology gets its reputation for being vague. The full chart is free and takes the same three details you have just entered.
