VENUS OPPOSING PLUTO

This aspect depicts conflict which, when resolved, results in growth. Oppositions show a tug of war between opposing forces. If they are resolved, then the oppositions become the backbone and strength of the chart.

It is important to understand that the Venus rules Love, beauty and relationships. It rules personal finances and earned income as well. Venus is aesthetic and artistic. There is an attachment or response to beauty. Pluto rules transformation through destruction, only to end up in reconstruction. Pluto is powerful and behaves like plutonium, where it completely destroys only to rebuild anew. Pluto levels one thing to cause something else to rise up out of the ashes, just like the phoenix-rising arises from the ashes. Pluto destructs in order to reconstruct and there is where the transformation takes place.

This aspect shows domination, power and drama in personal relationships and matters of personal money. Pluto is insecure, jealous and obsessed, so this aspect is obsessed with the idea of Love and the desire to have it. The same holds true for the desire to have money. Venus opposing Pluto expect loved ones to share love with the same level of intensity. As a result, relationships are infested with a struggle for power and control, probably even violence. Energy needs to be directed into a creative pursuit that is timing consuming and demanding to keep the individual's emotions from wandering and ballooning into something that does not exist.
