Jupiter in aspect to Pluto

This is a favorable aspect, which should allow you the opportunity to unfold your natural talents relatively easily, applying them in a concentrated and determined approach towards achieving your ambitions. You have the fortunate ability to evoke a response from your 'inner storehouse' of gifts, and create an open channel enabling you to manifest these in an objective context. Those who are close to you or who work daily with you may be inspired by this ability; and you are likely to display certain leadership qualities.

You will approach life with zest and vitality, pouring your energy wholeheartedly into satisfying your aims and your need for success. You seem to feel that your success is guaranteed; and whilst you may often feel impatient, or temporarily frustrated in your purpose, you have too much self-confidence and determination to believe that you could fail. The opportunities are certainly there for you; and your inner gifts are there to be actively expressed and exploited by you to achieve success.

You may find that you express and explore your talents in several potentially lucrative areas, as your gifts can be applicable in a variety of ways. This can mean that you are likely to change direction several times throughout your life, possibly in a radical style, or just to find new areas to experience. You may not have a specific goal in mind - such as a senior managerial position in one company - but could become influenced by 'the inner storehouse' of innate talents to search for new directions in order to find suitable channels of release for as yet latent gifts; you may even find a problem arising out of the very multiplicity of choices available to you.

Ideally, you should look for a ways of life which actually offers you a variety of channels through which to express yourself, where there is a potential for a renewal of challenges and for a demand of personal growth. Working closely with people is likely to attract you, and interpersonal relationships can be a constant sphere of creativity and growth; much can be shared and transmitted even in creating and maintaining positive human relations at work.

In an intimate relationship, you should ensure that equality is developed, building a balance, as you may have a tendency to play the role of dominating leader too often. Development of each partner is also important; and you partner's needs and abilities should be clearly recognized and valued, helping each other to actualize hidden potentials. Change in the relationship and in your partner should arise naturally and easily; never attempt to force any process, as a natural evolution is safest, especially when in truth you cannot really understand the inner process and life experience / perception of another.

The best use of your abilities will be towards benefiting others in some way. Whilst Pluto is likely to 'co-operate' with you using this energy for personal success, if you tend to apply it in a way that exploits or abuses others through your becoming obsessed with self-satisfaction and desires, you may find that Pluto becomes more subversive and undermines your purposes, stimulating failure as a natural result of your own distorted form of expression, thus creating your own downfall as Pluto forces you to look at the need for transformation.

Jupiter conjunct Pluto: With Jupiter conjunct Pluto, you seek to enjoy life at the fullest. You have enormous drive and ambition to achieve your goals as soon as possible, and are impatient with anything that delays you. To others, your goals may be unrealistic, but you strive for them with amazing determination. It rarely occurs to you that you may fail, for you do not accept defeat. You are driven by an insatiable appetite to get the most out of your potential. Your success at seemingly impossible tasks is almost inspired. Behind your ambition lies a powerful faith in your ability to rise above external limitations. Your accomplishments are acclaimed and envied by many.

Your professional interests are extremely varied, and you can excel in many fields. Even though successful, however, you will be uncomfortable until you find a life work that offers unlimited growth potential. Essentially you are attracted to professions in which you must work closely with people, such as law, medicine, psychology, or religion. On the other hand, your preoccupation with self may lead you to seek recognition in fields such as sports, research and exploration, or even gambling, in which the risks are high and the dangers tantalizing. You will become involved in financial enterprises of vast scope which will generate significant returns for you.

In your personal affairs, your inclination for success will attract you to other successful persons. You will seek a mate whose strength of character, accomplishments and recognition you admire. You will understand your partner's motives and enthusiastically stimulate your mate to achieve. Be careful, however, not to overemphasize your partner's earning ability and the resulting 'good life', thus downgrading the fine personal attributes that make it possible.

Jupiter conjunct Pluto: The conjunction of these two planets, each of which is expansive in its own way - one through seeking a synthesis of a wide range of phenomena, the other through spreading its roots in the all-embracing consciousness - can have serious and far-reaching consequences. Pluto could carry us unexpectedly out of our depths, and with Jupiter we must always be on guard not to bite off more than we can chew. The danger of exaggeration and of overreaching ourselves is always present.

Whenever we are engaged in philosophizing, forming opinions, studying or any other Jovian activity, Pluto intensifies our efforts. It encourages depth; and in making a synthesis we are never satisfied that everything has been included. Therefore the combination leads to intense searching. Where our philosophical outlook is concerned, we do not rest until we are able to penetrate to the core of life itself; preferably, we want to be in control of our lives. We do not form opinions until we have thoroughly researched the background information; the corollary being that, when our minds are finally made up, nothing and nobody can shake us. Our opinions become part of us, and we promote them with passionate intensity. So this aspect gives inflexibility, conceit and unreachability, but is outstanding for study and research.

The expansiveness of Jupiter stimulates Pluto's striving for power and urge to control and get to the bottom of situations. So this is a likely aspect to find in the charts of great leaders and demagogues (provided it is linked with personal points in the horoscope). Its drawback is that charismatic leadership ability may not be accompanied by responsible insights. And once these natives are captivated by some ideal (Jupiter), they can pursue it with such fanaticism that they have no time for non-supporters. Power struggles and differences of opinion are commonplace with this aspect.

Jupiter conjunct Pluto: Because Pluto is one of the slow-moving outer planets, many people born in any given year when Jupiter is transiting the same sign as Pluto will have this aspect. It creates a mini-generation of people who will have choices to make as to how they pursue relationships. If the conjunction is unafflicted by other planets, if can be diagnosed by the sign and house placement.

It indicates that relationships will be affected by the unconscious motivation caused by the conjunction to Pluto. It can indicate a person who may need to control all his relationships; a person who needs to stay on top, and needs to manage those around him. He may reach out for new experience with great care and caution because he doesn't want to feel out of control. This person may be extremely sensitive about relationships in general, for a chance word overheard can send his subconscious self on a trip that will analyze and re-analyze anything that bothers him because of certain kinds of early childhood experience.

Jupiter sextile Pluto

The sextile aspect gives a 'higher turn of the spiral' to the energy which is released; and this will enhance your mental and intuitional faculties. You will have an optimistic and positive outlook on life; and the way in which you and others will benefit is through the exploration of higher ideals, elevated ideas and philosophies or religions. This is the direction to travel towards, both as a form of self-discovery and enfoldment, and as a medium through which you can eventually express your insights and understanding back into the world for the use of others.

The potential is there for you to serve as a spiritual channel and transmitter, provided you ensure that you truly work for the good of humanity. Pluto will support any efforts you make to communicate a unified vision to the world, greatly enhancing the effectiveness of your influence. This real effectiveness will be determined by your ability to serve selflessly, either as an enunciator of a vision, or by a lifetime of support and co¬operation with others who also seek to promote a positive direction for humanity to aim towards. There is no real glamour in such a task.

You have a penetrative mind and intuition, enabling you to discern the reality behind social, cultural and personal appearances; and there is a motivating curiosity that seems to require satisfying in whatever direction it turns. Your ideals are high, perhaps unrealistic to some degree, but still something to aspire towards in yourself and in the world. You are self-motivated and inspired, attempting to live to a high moral code (albeit your own), and tend to expect high ethical behavior from those in positions of social responsibility; you strongly object to hypocrisy and injustice. You will give your support to those whom you feel are being treated harshly and unfairly by society, and may often associate yourself with social and world movements to initiate change. Your sense of responsibility is highly developed, and you experience a strong inner impulse to share in the work of world regeneration and rebirth. Any close partnership should ideally involve someone who has a similar way of perceiving and experiencing the world; and it is quite possible that you could work together on projects, sharing a common idea.

Jupiter sextile Pluto: This aspect is common to a fairly large group of people born in the same year. It indicates the potential for relating to large groups of people; it indicates a person who may work well with groups or for the furthering of group interests. Relationships formed will be similar to those of the contemporary generation, and relationship ideals will vary with the generation's standards. The mass interests will interest this individual, so the problems of the generation will affect his personal life.

Because Pluto can indicate the collective unconscious and all the mythic images contained therein, this individual may be either creative in the kinds of relationships he forms, or affected by those images in some way. Any problems that can be related to universal or mythic images may be solved by pursuing the studies of that subject and relating the information into the personal life.

Jupiter sextile Pluto: The sextile from Jupiter to Pluto enables you to perceive truths that are hidden by appearances. Your curiosity often leads you to make a penetrating examination in order to discover the facts. Because of your high ethical standards, you align yourself with enterprises that act to improve social conditions in your environment.

You are concerned with injustices and will communicate your observations to the proper authorities, so that legal pressures can be brought to bear. Law and the administration of law are particularly suited to your basic character and integrity. You can be a champion to those who are unable to defend themselves or whose values need support.

You are also qualified to manage corporate financial enterprises successfully or to serve as liaison in arbitrating disputes. Business administration could provide you with an excellent avenue of expression, regardless of your specific field. Medicine or psychology would also be satisfactory expressions of your personality, and you would enrich those you serve. Literally dozens of occupations could give you much fulfillment. You are a benefactor to those you contact through your profession. You enjoy giving your talents, because you respond to your fellow man with a sense of spiritual responsibility.

Your partner must share your enthusiasm for social responsibility, for serving whenever and wherever you are needed. Your mate will also have a mission to fulfill, and the two of you can be a powerful force to relieve society's burdens. You are especially responsive to anyone who is concerned with elevating people's sights for the future. Your optimism generates in others a desire to share your excitement as you philosophically 'reach for the stars'.

Your religious attitude requires you to actively participate in stimulating others to accept a spiritual obligation to mankind. Thus you will redeem the gift of your vast capabilities.

Jupiter trine or sextile Pluto: With the harmonious aspects between Jupiter and Pluto, there are power plays in many areas; the need to be important can make itself felt both on the physical and on the mental place. Willpower is unusually strong, and we stand by our points of view. We hammer opinions home, and are not easily dissuaded. When linked with the personal planets, these aspects give great powers of persuasion. The obstinacy typical of the conjunction is typical of these aspects, too; but, because they are easy, it shows itself in a different way and causes less offence.

Expansive and improving Jupiter, in combination with taboo-breaking Pluto, sometimes gives social reformers who try to dethrone current moralities in order to replace them by others that seem more tolerant. Certainly freedom is promoted by Jupiter, but Pluto does not readily release its grip and will encourage the setting up of fresh power-structures which deny freedom in other areas. Although these are harmonious aspects, the Jupiter / Pluto combination is intrinsically so powerful that these people, though well-meaning, seldom give others a fair chance.

The desire to explore and investigate is well-developed in this combination. In professional life, this is excellent for scientific pursuits; in domestic life, it signals the housewife who is not taken in by sales patter but checks carefully before she buys.

We are inclined to moralize because we have a strong sense of right and wrong, which also encourages us to work actively in support of progress - whether material, social or religious. We can do things on a large scale and are good organizers, but we must be careful not to attempt too much at one time.

Jupiter square Pluto

The square from Jupiter to Pluto inclines you to rebel against existing codes of ethics. You may challenge authority in your efforts to find easier ways to realize your goals. Your greatest problem is in expecting a large return from little or no investment on your part. You exaggerate your burdens to justify your unwillingness to accept responsibility. Often misguided in contributing too much to questionable enterprises, you can suffer bitter disappointments in this way. Don't count too heavily on others to come to your assistance when you are in trouble. It is especially important not to overextend yourself when buying on credit, hoping you'll have the money when payments are due.

You lean toward professions with large-scale enterprises that affect many people and in which substantial financial returns are likely. In other words, you enjoy wheeling and dealing. Yet you know that you walk a tightrope in these kinds of activities. You seem to tempt fate by seeking out risky schemes that could run into legal difficulties. Money lending, political maneuvering, and professional gambling are some of the activities you may get caught up in. You could unscrupulously exploit others for your own gain, and you may find yourself being similarly victimized.

Your romantic interests could come about through your business functions. You may go to extremes in your romantic conquests, from the coarse and vulgar to the polished and refined. The people you admire are those who yield to momentary impulses and don't care about propriety. You live for the moment and avoid looking back.

Unless you recognize your frailties and shortcomings, you must expect to be severely dissatisfied with your goals. It is imperative that you examine your life in retrospect and honestly realize how you have shortchanged yourself by rejecting rules to live by. It is difficult for you to learn from experience; but until you do, your future hopes must remain empty dreams.

Jupiter square Pluto: The relating principle is squared by the images from the collective unconscious. Relationships may be colored with the qualities of the sign of the Pluto square. A strong need to control relationships will emerge, as well as the unconscious motivation caused by early childhood memories. Too much sensitivity may be brought into the picture when relationships occur, for some confusion may exist in regard to what relating is. This individual may confuse relating and sharing with being in control or staying on top of any situation.

Pluto can indicate a need to stay in control that can get so out of hand that it causes certain obsessions. This individual may need to 'win' so badly that he obsesses over any relationship that doesn't go his way. Getting locked into obsession games obviously defeats the purpose of relating, for relating indicates a voluntary sharing of time and experience. As soon as the obsession begins, the other party is not allowed to volunteer but is required to share. This defeats the purpose.

Since Jupiter has something to do with keeping a perspective between self and universe, the Pluto square does not help the perspective to develop. The control urges and the continuing fear of being controlled by others can cause the relating principle to become stagnant. When this occurs, relationships become control games, or role-playing rituals that don't allow this individual to receive the pleasure of sharing time with another person.

Volunteer sharing is one of the most exciting pleasures a person can have, for it is exhilarating to know that another person really likes being with one. When the Plutonic energy is used for control, although one may spend time with another, it's not time spent because it just happens. Therefore, the security that can be engendered by sharing self with another cannot take place.

Jupiter square Pluto: This indicates that your personal philosophy and attitudes will condition your life, and because they tend to be fixed and dogmatic can serve to bring you into conflict with others. This philosophy or set of beliefs will either be 'self-created' or tend to reflect older, more traditional religious dogma; either of them is likely to be out of phase with much of contemporary life and social development. You will either express a peculiarly unique and personally individual outlook, or be willingly absorbed within a traditional structure.

Basically, you are likely to be antagonistic to the modern world, believing that it is taking the wrong direction, and will be inclined towards a desire to reform the outer world and people so that they begin to conform to your world vision. There is a tendency towards mental arrogance, a certainty of your own way being right as opposed to the ways of others; and you are unlikely to be receptive to alternative beliefs and new ideas. You will be an active exponent of your way, expressing it forcefully to others, either by a challenging of their beliefs or by attempts at conversion; you feel that you have a mission to perform, and this conviction gives you the inner strength to continue. If rejection occurs, you tend not to use that experience as a means to re-evaluate your beliefs, but inwardly reassert your own sense of righteousness. Whilst it may appear that your own system of belief is intellectually founded, the truth is that it is rooted deep in your emotions, and you feel its personal meaning very intensely, thus whilst attempting to challenge and persuade others, you maintain a barrier to outer challenges against yourself. You are afraid that if your belief structure cracked and began to fall apart, then your inner cohesiveness as a personality would too, as your identity is so intertwined with your own beliefs.

To some degree, most people are ina similar situation to yourself, where self-identity is defined by beliefs, opinions, attitudes, thoughts, emotions and body; in defending personal convictions you are defending yourself. It may be that your particular belief is not obviously religious; it could easily be political: for many, a firmly held political conviction acts inwardsly as a substitute 'god'.

You are attracted to power and influence, as a means to convert others and to confirm the efficacy of your own beliefs through personal success. What you may need to achieve is a way to co-operate with people more effectively, rather than attempting to dominate. Certainly, it may be wiser for you to allow a cross-fertilisation between yourself and the world, to dissolve the tendency towards fanatical closed-mindedness.

Jupiter square or opposite Pluto: The danger of things getting out of hand or piling up on top of us is greatest in the hard aspects between Jupiter and Pluto. Since Pluto insists on getting to the bottom of things, and Jupiter wants fullness and breadth, half-measures never satisfy us for we are always looking for more. If necessary, we work hard to this end, but we can easily overload ourselves. In the tense aspects, we find it difficult to control the energies of these two factors, and they tend to whip one another up. Therefore we can be extremely ambitious; so that, even when we reach the top of our profession, we remain dissatisfied.

Willpower and stubbornness are so great that, once we get hold of an idea, we do not deviate from it by so much as a hair's-breadth. Obviously, this is bound to arouse opposition, especially as we are liable to express opinions vigorously. With the hard aspects, we are not good at measuring the intensity of what we are saying. We can be fanatical; what is more, others generally perceive us as fanatical, even though we imagine we are being very accommodating.

With these active aspects, we devote ourselves to social reforms and the like, and want to play an important part in bringing them about. The idea of power is extremely attractive to those with the Jupiter / Pluto combination, whatever the type of the latter may be. There is, in any case, a desire to pit ourselves against the prevailing mores and, when the aspect is hard, we find an added spirit of contradiction. Taboo-breaking Pluto is a genuine revolutionary; although not the same as Uranus. Under the influence of Uranus, natives may achieve a quick, explosive breakthrough into a new form offering freedom for individual development to self and others. Under the influence of Pluto, natives require a personally chosen pattern of society into which everyone must fit regardless of convention, and where the native's will is sovereign. The battle fought under a Pluto conflict has far-reaching implications. Natives bide their time, are skilled strategists, unyielding, and are not afraid to use force if necessary. Often they bring about tremendous transformations.

Because we see and tackle things on such a large scale, we run the risk of never being satisfied by past achievements. We also run the risk of spiritual or material failure because we want to do everything at once. A sense of proportion is likely to be lacking with these aspects.

Jupiter trine Pluto

As with the sextile aspect, the trine indicates the potential of releasing a powerful creative energy emerging from a humanistic and spiritual perspective, which will be of positive use to yourself and the world.

Your innate optimism and belief in the essential goodness of life will turn your inner faith into an effective ability to manifest your creative vision, especially as you are able to channel your will into constructive forms of expression.

Your contribution to society may well be in working closely with people; and you have the gift of being able to inspire others to discover how to experience life more intensely and creatively and to release their own latent talents. This can involve you in the expression of a sort of life philosophy which can be adopted by others on their path to self-understanding. Obviously, any such influence must be carefully handled by you, both in how your own self-perception is changed and in what you offer to others or share with them. There is a great responsibility to be assumed when presenting yourself in a way that can have considerable influence on others' lives; and awareness must be shown and applied to ensure integrity is maintained, that the 'teaching' is as honest and valid as possible, that there is freedom for disagreement or new thinking to occur, and that it is understood that 'your way' is not the only or most appropriate way for everyone. In fact, even direct opposition from another may be the right way for them to unfold themselves or to discover new insights, and could be right for you as a stimulus to re-evaluate your own path and attitudes. Primarily, you seem to function in a role of 'educator', and you are likely to develop into an effective speaker, clearly expounding your beliefs, ideas and attitudes, and being quite persuasive in that way. You tend to need personal freedom, and dislike being tied down into predictable patterns of behavior, as you may feel that you need to be relatively free in order to be able to respond to what you consider to be insights and intuitions. You support social transformation, and will reflect the unified vision as the direction for the future, offering a meaning and inspiring purpose for people to aim towards. You may find that a personal transformation is required of you prior to you fulfilling your potential role and function. Initially, this could involve considerable challenges facing you which require overcoming, or elements in your personal life that lead to periodic crises which lead eventually to wisdom and insight as a result of personal suffering.

Jupiter trine Pluto: The trine from Jupiter to Pluto indicates your interest in stimulating individuals and groups to creatively exploit their own potentials. Your optimistic response to social change inspires others to view the future with greater expectation and hope. You can awaken those around you to an acceptable philosophy for pursuing their destinies. You arouse them to establish constructive motivations that will sustain them through the bitter and the sweet, the highs and the lows, the successes and the failures in their lives.

You are able to grasp the essential meaning behind any of life's mysteries and to dramatize it effectively enough to convince the most determined skeptic. Your words, often seemingly inspired, carry such an impact that they are seldom questioned. Because you are geared to become intimately involved in the affairs of others, you should choose a profession that will serve the public interest. Education would give you a broad yet intimate scope to demonstrate truths as you understand them and to shatter the illusions that restrict expansion of consciousness. It may be that you are a free soul, whose destiny is to serve others.

Your personal relationships must allow you mobility and creative expression. You have the power to move from a life of apathy and indolence to one in which you offer your insight for the benefit of society. You instinctively know right from wrong, and can assist others to recognize the difference. The young are especially responsive to you, for you understand the drama of their lives. Even elderly and mature people gain inspiration from your fresh and invigorating life-force. You can stimulate lives that could have become stagnant and without purpose.

You can restore your own life-force by contemplating your experiences and by meditating on the universal energy sources that grant you vision to know the truth. These precious moments will give you guidelines for applying the knowledge you gain.

Jupiter trine Pluto: Jupiter indicates the relating principle, and Pluto symbolizes the unconscious motivation within an individual. When these two planets are in trine aspect, it indicates a person who enjoys relating to the masses, who enjoys the generation into which he is born, and who enjoys reaching out to others in a co-operative venture. When the trine is in effect, the more unhealthy qualities of Pluto (like control or manipulation) don't manifest.

These individuals are more apt to become involved in traditional relationships, and tend to marry, raise a family, and participate in the more accepted cycles of adult behavior. They may be victims of the 'fad' of their day, subscribing to the faddy kinds of behavior that are popular from moment to moment. They may over-relate to the value system of their generation. For example, when it became fashionable to have a swimming pool and a color television set, these people could relate to those values, and may not understand that there is more to a relationship than having what the Joneses have.

Because the symbolism of Jupiter involves a changing perspective, and because Pluto symbolizes the needs of the collective unconscious, these individuals need to analyze their relationships more thoroughly than they want to when they are younger. Age and maturity help their drives, for they have the capability of combining archetypal images and patterns into their relationships, if they so desire.

Jupiter trine or sextile Pluto: With the harmonious aspects between Jupiter and Pluto, there are power plays in many areas; the need to be important can make itself felt both on the physical and on the mental place. Willpower is unusually strong, and we stand by our points of view. We hammer opinions home, and are not easily dissuaded. When linked with the personal planets, these aspects give great powers of persuasion. The obstinacy typical of the conjunction is typical of these aspects, too; but, because they are easy, it shows itself in a different way and causes less offence.

Jupiter quincunx Pluto

With the inconjunct from Jupiter to Pluto, you will have to make significant adjustments in your life to justify the knowledge that you have. The line of least resistance is to complain about your fate and challenge the need to submit to it. This may lead you to become an opportunist, taking from others what you consider rightfully yours. You are missing the message completely if you don't yield to your real task, which is to become fully acquainted with changing social conditions and use your talent to do something constructive about them. You tend to feel overwhelmed by social responsibility as if you must serve in a greater capacity than others. Therefore you may reject your responsibilities. On the other hand, you may give up your desire for personal and social benefits and exhaustively demonstrate your willingness to serve others. Beware of people who may victimize you to satisfy their own objectives. Try to understand the motives of those who enlist you in their cause.

You need to become fully informed about your surroundings to protect yourself from intimidation. Education will give you skills to fairly examine your talents and the contribution you can make in serving others. When you accept an opportunity, it is your spiritual responsibility to distinguish right from wrong. 'What's in it for me?' isn't sufficient justification for everything you do.

In seeking your goals, either you will assert your desires on others and cleverly derive benefits for your exaggerated self-importance, or you will bitterly submit and resent others using your efforts for their own benefit. Both attitudes need adjustment. If you follow a middle course, you may safely express your potentials in moderation and derive satisfaction by contributing substantially to individual and public causes.

Jupiter quincunx Pluto: Wanting everything at once and striving for more power than we can handle are typical of the inconjunct between Jupiter and Pluto. The worst of it is that we find it so hard to appreciate this fact. We may admit that perhaps we do behave a little like this at times (purely and simply to reassure ourselves), but we fail to realize that we are less moderate than we think. Reactions from others may puzzle us for quite a while; and we can become involved in a peculiarly treacherous vicious circle of misunderstandings.

Opinions (Jupiter) are expressed with great intensity and sometimes with great intolerance. Generally speaking, the contents of the unconscious, especially repressions and projections, form the bases of our judgments. Therefore, in a critical situation, the Jupiter / Pluto inconjunct can have a transforming effect: via ethical and moral concepts, religious experience and philosophy of life, we can get hold of repressed material. More likely than not, we shall undergo radical changes with the inconjunct (if the latter is linked to personal planets).

Strength, power-craving and will are much greater than we realize; below the surface, Jupiter is constantly reinforcing Pluto. Hence we are better able to meet challenges than our uncertainty permits us to feel. If we are bold enough to cut through knots, we can go far in various fields and can consciously seize opportunities that, in order to satisfy a need for power, we have already seized unconsciously.

Jupiter quincunx Pluto: The issues here are less obvious, as all issues are when involved in a quincunx aspect. A strain takes place between the relating needs symbolized by Jupiter and the unconscious motivation factors indicates by Pluto's sign and house placement.

Relationships are influenced by a vague feeling that one must be in control of something, but what the 'something' is may be difficult to self-diagnose. The strain caused by the quincunx can be handled on an intellectual level; and both facets of personality as well as the personal qualities symbolized by the sign of the quincunx can be incorporated into the personal life. Then the strain will disappear.

Jupiter quincunx Pluto: You have a great deal of creative power, and the major challenge of your life will be learning how to handle it. First of all, you must realize that you will get the most out of life if you direct your energies toward helping the people around you and those you love. You will want to change many conditions in the world, which is fine as long as your reasons are not purely selfish ones.

If you use the energies of this aspect selfishly, you will have serious conflicts with authorities, persons in power and adults in general. You may try to make changes before you have learned how to do so creatively, without provoking such resistance that your efforts are blocked. To be effective, you must have the necessary skills.

You may have a natural talent for dominating others, but don't fall in love with this talent and be motivated by it. You can be effective at influencing people only if you use your power to help others and yourself achieve desirable goals together. You must be an agent for betterment at all times, and even so you must listen to others' ideas about betterment to be sure that you aren't just seeking power in a more roundabout manner.

Even at best you will get a certain amount of resistance from others, because they will feel your energy and be afraid of your motives. Unless you show them that your motives are good and that you can be reasoned with, you will run into opponents who are more powerful than you, who will stop you and make your efforts futile.

Jupiter opposite Pluto

With Jupiter in opposition to Pluto, you need vision to cope with people who resist you in your desire for growth and expansion. You are disposed to question every ideology and to challenge dogma by asserting your own. Therefore you search for answers to life's mysteries and will create conflict with others. Your social values are often not in step with those of society, and you alienate the very people who can help you make dramatic changes in social attitudes. You have a 'savior' quality that people will sometimes disdain, if you pompously declare your mission to serve mankind.

On the negative side, you may be inclined to seek positions of power in order to more effectively manage other people's lives. You may try to gain financial advantage over people as an additional pressure on their destinies. In this way you may win a qualified victory over them, but if you use them in your anarchistic rise to power, you will never gain their respect and admiration.

Be careful not to become affiliated with illegal enterprises merely because they offer better returns. The society you manipulate can legally restrict and even confine you ¬even the wealthy are imprisoned. You must carefully weigh your activities against the risks involved. What may seem right for you may be completely wrong for society.

On the other hand, you may be motivated to correct social injustices and start a crusade against social harassment. You may focus on how you can best serve others through intimate response and spiritual dedication to their problems. Your dramatic flair can arouse the general public both through skillful personal contacts and through the media.

Be specific about your aims to serve as spokesperson to help others achieve their objectives. Also, it may be better to be chosen than to immodestly elect yourself on the assumption that without you they will suffer disappointment or defeat. You have a lot to offer people; don't spoil it with arrogance.

Jupiter opposite Pluto: Jupiter indicates how the relating principle will manifest; it tells how we reach out and open up to another person, to new life experience. Pluto indicates our unconscious motivation, those sensitive qualities caused by unhappy memories that come from early childhood.

When the opposition occurs, every relating experience will be influenced by the unconscious motivation caused by a need to control outgoing and incoming experience. These individuals will want to stay on top of all relationships, so they may be controlling or manipulating; but the need to do this comes from a subconscious point. In order to develop a free and easy relating ability, they must become conscious of their personal motivations in the matter. Once this occurs, they can then use some of the creative energy available to them, because the opposition is a strong aspect. They can proceed to care more about people and constructively use the mythic images alive in their psyche instead of fearing them. The controlling or manipulative types of behavior are not necessarily conscious, and in the process of curing these kinds of attitudes a lot of conscious effort must be put into the cure.

A relationship, whether with a friend, a lover or a family member, is a process that involves sharing. You listen to them and respond and care, and they listen to you and do the same. The relating process is a special sharing process whereby one personality is integrated with another for a moment in time. This process engenders a feeling of closeness and caring that surpasses the idyllic love fantasies that are projected on another, for there is genuine feeling going on in the relating process. When Pluto opposes the Jupiter principle, the issues become cloudy because of the inner motivation to be in control. When this control need is recognized and let go, the individual may flounder for a time, much like a ship without a rudder. But eventually this same individual will begin to recognize how much fun this relating process can be. The biggest single factor discussed by clients who have worked on this aspect is that of the inner security that can be realized when a friend or lover likes them - not because of excess giving and other little manipulation games, but because 'you're you'.
