Read your horoscope for Pluto in Capricorn
The transformative power of Pluto
Pluto is a planet that transforms whatever it touches. Completely. Absolutely. Without the option of going back. We are never the same once Pluto has touched our lives. Although ultimately regenerative, Pluto transits are known for what they help us break down.
In Capricorn, Pluto is focused on fiscal, material, and structural transformations. Capricorn knows about traditional hierarchies and climbing to the top of them, while Pluto is a planet that symbolizes power. In Capricorn, Pluto asks us to see the corruption that lies at the heart of our relationship to the earth’s resources.
Pluto asks us to play the long game
Pluto moved into Capricorn in 2008, a year that will go down in history for one of the worst financial crises the United States has ever faced. It remained in this sign until March of 2023, when the planet first dipped into Aquarius. The weeks leading up to that ingress also coincided with a banking crisis: In mid-March, three American banks crumbled within a few days of each other, followed by Credit Suisse in Switzerland less than a week later. Given that Capricorn rules over financial institutions, it feels appropriate that Pluto’s time in this sign has been bookended by disruptions of how we perceive, trust, and use those institutions.
Capricorn is a sign associated with traditional systems of supremacy, including settler colonialism and the one percent’s control over much of the world’s wealth. (In fact, the phrase “the one percent” was coined during the Occupy Wall Street movement in 2011 — three years after Pluto entered this sign.) This final stretch of Pluto in Capricorn — a transit we will not experience again in our lifetimes — indicates a point of no return for toxic concentrations of wealth, power, and political influence. We can no longer be bystanders to colonial violence, economic injustice, or environmental destruction. The questions that remain as Pluto returns to Capricorn: Are we willing to learn from these past disruptions? And what changes are we committed to making?
These shifts won’t happen overnight, but with an earth sign like Capricorn involved, they should be clear, unequivocal, and concrete. Pluto’s final stint in the sign of the sea goat will be a short one, lasting from September 1st to November 19th, 2024. Then it will lodge in Aquarius until 2048.
If Pluto is about anything, it’s about journeying. We cannot escape the journey mapped out for us. We can resist it. We can scorn it. We can wait until our last breath to accept it. But eventually, we must engage with it. And in the process, we’ll be challenged, changed, and brought closer to the true nature of our being.

Pluto in Capricorn transforms how you share or merge resources and the ways you wield your agency within these collaborations. Since 2008, Pluto has burrowed deep into the emotional landscape of such exchanges, exposing power imbalances and pushing you to meet them head-on.
As you’ve risked opening yourself to the depths of giving and receiving, you’ve been learning when to close these energetic portals too. In fact, these exchanges may hold up a mirror to help you reclaim your own potency.
When it comes to magnetizing loans, grants, or stipends, trust your instincts. Allowing yourself time to feel your way into contracts or collaborations is part of your edge now.

Cancer & Cancer rising
Pluto’s long transit through Capricorn transforms your most intimate relationships. You’ve been learning to advocate for what you need to feel safe in your 1:1 dynamics — even if drawing these boundaries hasn’t always been comfortable.
You’ve also developed a radar for the frenemies and energy vampires of the world. At the first prickle of something that doesn’t feel right, sometimes the most powerful move is to hit the escape button.
That being said, your best friends and true blues have been some of your wisest teachers. In every encounter with another person, you’ve befriended a new facet of yourself — maybe even a shadow or two.
Celebrate the complexities of these exchanges. Enlisting the support of a coach, therapist, or mediator can help you break out of any lingering relationship patterns you’ve outgrown.

Leo & Leo rising
Sifting through the rubble of Capricorn, Pluto transforms the containers of your work and health routines. The potency that you exercise within them has shifted too.
As Pluto’s channels have run deep underground, your efforts may have brought you in contact with folks working on the fringes of their fields or industries. Maybe you’re one of those renegades yourself, disrupting imbalances of power as you follow your instincts — no more business as usual, thank you.
Power dynamics could intensify as your focus shifts to systemic inequities around wages, divisions of labor, and working conditions. Slowly but surely, your toil will transform the collective — and ripen you as well. This underworld journey may involve a reclamation of the rest and spaciousness that make any monumental task sustainable.
Your wellbeing is worth its weight in gold.

Virgo & Virgo rising
In the depths of Capricorn, Pluto transforms your gardens of earthly delights. For you, a monumental creative effort may be reaching a crescendo. This artistic work could be provocative, taboo, and maybe even a bit disturbing. Life is too short to play it safe.
Your romances and your connections to offspring, human or otherwise, may also be shaping you in profound ways. Refreshing your list of dealbreakers in your pleasure pursuits can you help honor the potency you’re stepping into.
If something has been blocking your mojo, consider enlisting the support of a therapist, coach, or playmate to bust through these walls. As a creator and seeker of pleasure, you may find Pluto’s initiations downright cathartic. Trust what gives you goosebumps. In the art of good living, follow what thrills you.

Libra & Libra rising
Sifting through the layers of sediment in Capricorn, Pluto transforms your connection to home and to those who came before you.
What it means for you to put down roots is evolving, though these changes may feel subtle at first. You’re wielding more power within your domestic or familial dynamics and learning to say no even when it feels uncomfortable.
Pluto loves to burrow deep, and this transit may have you excavating stories or patterns that you carry from your caregivers. Though these blueprints can be powerful, you have the power to create new forms of belonging.
Depth psychology, talk therapy, and family constellation groups could provide a container for these alchemical shifts. Remember that you have the freedom to choose the lineages and ancestral arts you build upon — and the ghosts you leave behind.

Power dynamics within extended family relationships and your closest friendships could be rumbling too. Perhaps you’ve become more tactical about the energy you pour into these connections. You’ve been learning to draw a boundary even when it feels hard.
A monumental writing project, report, or collection of data may be reaching a point of culmination. You’ve learned to trust your hunches when it comes to connecting the dots. Now, when you express yourself, people really pay attention.

Sagittarius & Sagittarius rising
Burrowing deep into Capricorn, Pluto is transforming your relationship to your assets.
Your ability to magnetize the resources you need has become your superpower. You’ve also learned to trust your instincts when it comes to separating fool’s gold from the real thing. Income streams may have emerged in places that were previously hidden in the shadows.
Your foundational stories about material security could still be shifting, though. Enlisting the support of a financial advisor or a numerically minded friend could help you dislodge any lingering beliefs blocking the flow of this honey.
You may also be tapping a deep reservoir of self-worth through a talent or hobby or overhauling your relationship to materialism itself. Whatever doesn’t spark joy, let it go. The more you invest in yourself, the more your inner garden will thrive — and nourish you in return. Just don’t neglect the compost heap.

This process may be bittersweet as you bid farewell to the earlier drafts of you that turned into this masterpiece. Remember that your jagged edges tell the story of your resolve and resilience. Don’t sand them down.
Message boards, support groups, therapists, and close friends can help you own your authenticity. Dream-board the upgraded version of you and place it on your altar. You were made for this moment.

Aquarius & Aquarius rising
Exploring the ravines of Capricorn, Pluto is transforming the way you rest, recoup, and heal. For you, this excavation may be subconscious as you rummage through your psychic closets or fill a stack of dream journals.
Pluto offers you the courage to confront your oldest and most ingrained patterns — the ways you get in our own way. The grace to accept what we can’t control is Pluto’s gift to you — and your new superpower. You also may have discovered the magic of going dark as you allow certain projects to germinate and unfurl in their own time.
If there’s one way for you to work with Pluto, it’s to rest. Make your eight hours of shut-eye non-negotiable, and continue to experiment with deep relaxation techniques. You never know where you’ll strike gold.

Pisces & Pisces rising
Descending the cliffs and crags of Capricorn, Pluto is transforming the landscape of your networks. You’ve learned to trust your power within your communities and to pinpoint exactly where your talents are needed. Now, you’re starting to feel the momentum of collective action.
Continue to be strategic in the group undertakings that receive your emotional investment. Your activism crumbles if you don’t tend to yourself first. If imbalanced power dynamics have derailed a communal cause, Pluto may ask you to blow the whistle — or simply make your exit.
It may also be easier now to magnetize the folks you can truly move mountains with. So put yourself out there. Explore the message boards, meetups, cafes, and online spaces where you’ll find your favorite flavor of freak or geek.
