Pluto square Neptune transit comes when you reach your late sixties or later. As we move through the twenty-first century, this transit occurs progressively later in people’s lives (see table below). This is because Neptune sextile Pluto last into the 2030’s.
You belong to a generation that is handing down power to a new one. It can feel like your ideals are no longer recognized, and your dreams are no longer significant. The things that meant so much to you may be slipping away, but try not to get caught up in regret.
This is a turning point where you can start feeling sorry for yourself or try to keep up with the times. If you are stubborn or resistant to change, you may experience significant disappointments. This is a time for acceptance and surrender.
During this transit, you will have to cope with powerful outside forces that seem to take no regard for your individual ego. Your individuality will not be challenged so much as ignored, unless you stand in the way of these forces, in which case you may have some extremely discouraging experiences.Â
Elements in your life that you have always counted on may begin to pass away in ways that are extremely difficult to understand. There will be no dramatic signs of social struggle and change, but the old order is passing away. What may be most challenging to accept is that there seems to be nothing that you can fight directly.
It is as if many circumstances, relationships, possessions and various other conditions of your life have lost their right to be and are withering away. You can waste your time regretting this situation, thereby putting yourself in the same position, or you can come to terms with the new world and become part of it. That is one of the decisions you will have to make; however, your internal conditioning will likely determine your decision in advance.
Another aspect of this transit is that hidden aspects of your unconscious mind may emerge and begin to influence your life now. Elements of your personality that you prefer to keep hidden from others may become so evident that you can no longer avoid them. Dark secrets from your past may resurface in your subconscious. Painful experiences, guilt or shame you have repressed can materialize through dreams, visions and memories.
The only solution, therefore, is to deal with them. They are probably not as bad as you think, anyway. It is not their intrinsic nature but repression that makes them seem bad. Now, you must discard the past conditioning that causes you to reject these perfectly valid aspects of yourself.
One response to the above situation may be an increased concern with subjects that reveal the deep, inner, hidden nature of the world, such as psychology, scientific research, the occult, spiritualism or mystical philosophy. The insights you gain from these disciplines can help you acknowledge and accept your faults and mistakes. They can also be the basis of a transformation, regeneration, and transcendence of your ego. This is in many ways the most positive response to this transit.

Some of this interpretation is based on Planets in Transit by Robert Hand (2001), pp. 515-516.
I think this was definitely a period of reconciliation of life. If a person is happy with where they are now at this time of life, then one can see that they would not be where they are now if not for those life experiences and hiccups along the way. And yeah, I guess it is an ego slam if I wanted to look at it that way I guess, but that has been happening since I crossed the bridge in my mid 50s.
The thing is now when I have personal homework to do I dislike it. This homework is less intense than in earlier years, though.
The main thing I see with my pals is the paring down of physical possessions, simplifying cuz it’s too much. The energy just isn’t there anymore. And yeah, we just wanna be doing what we want to do. That would be the intensification of study under I think.
Too, I think present economics is a challenge. Like folks would sell their homes and move into apts or something but that is no longer economically feasible for many. So there are outer factor effects that have to be dealt with. And I like the pass down. That I sometimes feel guilty about because everything seems in shambles. But they motor on. Have to understand this is all the life they know. And that too makes me greatful to have been able to experience better days. But that too is my take. These are the younger generations better days in the making. Kali Yuga thinking does no good. It is what it is.
There is just one more thing. It’s the best thing of all. And it might be related to the spiritual connection you mention. Because one is no longer scheduled by the external . And that is not the right words. Not having to rotate around the job and all that, time changes.
I may have written it before because it’s my best example. I head out to retrieve my empty garbage bin from roadside pickup. And it takes me 4 hours. Weeds may be pulled, a tree pruned, finishing up an outdoor project or any host of things. But I can move how I want to move. There seems to no existence of time just movement in space, as I connect to where I am. It’s a beautiful thing.
Now I am putting up produce for the winter so I make a list to make sure I hit it before things go bad. There are some have tos that need to be hit, ergo the list.
Had to check in to see if Klaus was giving me any crap.
