Natal Pluto Retrograde
Pluto retrograde natal is more common than inner planet retrograde, such as Mercury and Venus. About 40% of people have Pluto retrograde in their birth chart, so it’s less feared and less harmful than having an inner planet retrograde. That said, natal Pluto retrograde still has karmic repercussions and a noticeable influence.
With natal Pluto retrograde, you may have difficulty transforming your life due to fear of letting go. The internalization process of retrogrades can slow you, bringing your intense drives and needs to the surface. You will probably have difficulty expressing your power and influence.
Fear of being controlled or taking control can stem from past experiences involving power abuse or manipulation. Whether you were a victim or abuser may be shown through natal Pluto aspects and any fixed star conjunctions.
Depending on past life conditions, you may fear death, poverty, manipulation, torture, imprisonment, being committed to a mental institution, exile, or betrayal. Power and control issues may involve psychic realms, sex, and inheritance.
For such reasons, you can be very intense on the inside, secretive, or a control freak. Past life conditioning can repeat, especially while young, in the form of compulsions, phobias, isolation, or mistrust of family. You may develop strong psychic power due to internalizing your powerful drives and wishes for power and success. Hiding your genuine desire for power and influence can lead to suspicion.
Pluto retrograde in your natal chart subjects you to many fated events to bring your deepest and darkest fears to the surface. A recurring theme in particular experiences will persist until you learn to safely express your inner power and intensity.
How do I “safely express your inner power and intensity”?
By doing no harm.
Hi Jamie, I liked the article very much. I did stop dead in my tracks when I read the last sentence in a paragraph, “It is preferable to be outside to avoid steel roofs blocking the energies from the universe.” Uhhh, I don’t think the ‘universe’ is contained by a steel roof. Keep up the good work! Can you do an article about T Uranus square trump’s Mars and ascendant, and T Mars square his Mars and asc., which happens soon? That would be a lively article!
“By doing no harm,” yes, of course, but to how many connections of relationship? Almost everyone (even Donald Trump) does what we do because we all think we are “right,” but that does not necessarily equate to actually doing no harm; history is full of unintended consequences.
I think there is an intentionality of harm that rings through in some situations. Motive. Seeking to destroy to prove one’s self the better. Or to hang onto old hurts and try to avenge them by taking it out on others that have nothing to do with the hurts the person felt. Revengeful sorts of people. That kind of thing.
I think the really valuable thing here in Jamie’s writing is if, that kind of person is in one’s life, them loose. If the destroyer is obsessed and won’t go away, it gets sticky. It goes back to intent to harm. On steroids.
And to be clear, since you mention donny 2 dolls, I don’t do ehat he does. Nor does anyone else I associate with.
You do make an excellent point though. About the donny 2 dolls supporters. They liken themselves to his behaviors. The weird thing is those areas of die hard supporters are the ones suffering most from the chainsaw cutting their services. That says something. Not sure what. Wackadoodle. It’s probably got to do with some of those underlying pluto forces.
I think what is going on with the wackadoodle is that it is a fight against instead of a fight for. It really started out as an ownership thing. Wanting to “own the libs.” And libs became any kind of humanity. And like any fight, persons can get lose themselves and their mind in the fight thing.
Australia Election today, but the chart is a Synastry between the country chart and Pluto retrograde in New York.

North America trade turmoil on the minds of Australians, and their election results appear similar to Canada’s. The chart show that interesting Betelgeuse/ Galactic Centre axis with Neptune / Jupiter in a grand cross with prevailing North/Southnodes. Neptune square Neptune is a crisis of middle age transit. Use the period for self scrutiny, but don’t necessarily act on it yet.
I am, will be, meditating on the Pluto direct chart. I do have experience with Venus pluto people and Venus Scorpio people so I have my bias there. Ownership. Have you own everything. While I am not sure of Venus Uranus unless it’s wham ban thank you ma’am. And how the Magic triangle will work I don’t know. But will that Venus point of the kite(I think that’s what it is) and transits to that point affect the magic triangle? Anyway hope to learn more in your future writing.
I love my new steel roof. Sometimes I go up om the step ladder to look at it closer and I pet it. No more leaks and destruction. Let’s face it, shingles ain’t what they used to be. And neither is work ethic. I left the shelter of the roof and drove to Amish country tonpay my bill. Now that’s life there. So integrated with life and great craftsmen. Reality is only 45 minutes away from my roof. The Native American tribevisxebmven closer. It’s the land. The land connection.
My moon is at 3°48 Aquarius in my 1st house in a tsquare from 2 – 6° fixed signs. . It is quite spectacular feeling, I must say. I once feared this, but it has liberated me from many fears stemming from a 17 year abusive relationship that I left and some childhood wounds. The Inner child is healing. At work (Pluto ruling my MC), I am finally free of the power struggles that have lasted nearly 2 years. With rumors and gossip having gone wild, I finally don’t give a darn what anyone thinks. I am me. Period. Thanks Pluto.
Geez, this is becoming about facing pain for me. Pain I did not know I had. I could go to dark desire and start strangling people. That would be dark. But my natural bent is how do I deal with this. How do I get thru this and past this. It is like a poison I ingested.
This is probably where the transformation comes in in the dealing with it. But like the onset of any conundrum, it seems impossible.
