Pluto in Libra: How It Shapes Your Personality and Life

The position of Pluto in your natal chart reveals the transformations due to take place in your life and how you channel your core truths and restorative power.

Pluto in Libra

Those born at a time when Pluto was transiting Libra are the kind of individuals who want to change the world, but not by creating a complete ruckus, so not through forceful methods.

What they want to achieve is complete cooperation and coexistence among all humans. Under the influence of the pacifying Libra, ideas of partnerships are taken to the next level, no matter the surrounding resistance to change.

Pluto in Libra in a nutshell:

  • Style: Peaceful and idealistic;
  • Top qualities: Adaptable, diplomatic and analytical;
  • Challenges: Hesitant and worrisome;
  • Advice: Grace can sometimes be confused with naivety;
  • Celebrities: Amy Winehouse, Marion Cotillard, Nicki Minaj, Ryan Gosling, Paris Hilton.

Personality traits

These natives excel at making a problematic situation drop down a few levels on the aggressive scale. Where a conflict could spark up anytime, they manage to defuse the bomb through diplomacy, patience, and persuasive skills.

They mediate and try to do good by everyone else, satisfying all parts involved. However, they can also drop all pretenses and storm out of a room in a state of full-blown rage if an injustice has been committed, and the obvious perpetrator just won’t admit it.

They can be quite uptight with these principles and virtues, even in a relationship or better said, especially in that case.

Because they see themselves as the peacekeepers, the right person for the right job when things start going down the drain, they’re pretty egocentric.

Only a Plutonian Libra can find the best solution to a given problem, and they will spend a lot of time deliberating what’s the best course of action.

More often than not, while they’re analyzing the data, the problem either disappears or solves itself, but there’s no arguing with them once they get started.

On top of this, these natives are in love with researching the hidden nature of a given situation or person, being stubborn enough to attempt getting through to its deeper layers.

The good and the bad

One thing is for sure when talking about Plutonian Libra natives. They are very good at making meticulous analyses and observations, doing systematic deconstructions of a certain problem, in order to see what it’s made of.

They expand this ability into many other forms and domains, but what really gets to them is that they become too obsessed over the little things.

They forget about having fun, about looking at the whole picture and learning to enjoy it. Sure, they can be great problems solvers, and everyone knows that they are very reliable people, but on a personal level, they could learn to detach from time to time.

Problems start appearing the moment this native becomes too focused on a particular aspect and forgets that, sometimes, you just need to take a few steps back to freshen up your mind.

With a calmer mindset you are able to see things that you weren’t able to see previously. However, for the most part, the Plutonian Libra native just gives up when they can’t find a proper solution, letting someone else take care of it.

Their relationships are especially affected by this because once they start an argument and notice that it’s getting nowhere, they just get block, not knowing what to do next.

The thing is, they would prefer everything to be simpler, easier to figure out, with simple implications. And we all know how complicated relationships can be, especially with fussy partners.

Pluto in Libra in love

For the overly-rational Plutonian Libra native, love plays a big part in their lives, acting as a form of respite from the daily stress. They find great fulfillment in coming home and spending time with their partner, doing things together, fun activities or something of the sort.

Of course, because they wouldn’t be under Libra’s influence for nothing if they didn’t start to over-analyze everything, even relationships and love itself, they do just that.

With reason and logical principles, you can efficiently find a solution to a problem, but try doing the same thing with a fuming partner who claims you don’t pay enough attention to them. Emotional matters are another thing altogether.

Plutonian Libra natives are very determined and resolute, so once they determine that something is worth the effort, giving up is no longer an option, no matter what happens.

These natives can be incredibly tough and tolerant, even though they may react aggressively sometimes, or get annoyed from time to time.

Their love is still very intense, and they can resist for a long time before deciding that it’s not worth it anymore.

The Pluto in Libra man

These men are faced with some degree of inner conflict between social interactions and inner fulfillment.

At the time Pluto was last in Libra, these men had to make a choice, because society was beginning to change gender roles and how people approached them.

They also wanted to find themselves an emotionally fulfilling relationship, one they could perceive as a refuge. What was perceived as flimsy or too feminine in the past was now normalized, namely men exhibiting emotions in the first place.

As such, Plutonian Libra men carry from this ancestral knowledge and are more open towards the prospect of a relationship founded on emotions and sensibility than their ancestors were.

They tend to reveal themselves easier, their inner thoughts and feelings. Furthermore, they place increasing importance on finding a workplace that they can fully dedicate toward.

The Pluto in Libra woman

Plutonian Libra women are very strange and aren’t really understood by a lot of people. In their pursuit of balance and equilibrium, they will often reach contradictory conclusions.

And if that wasn’t enough, they will hold those convictions simultaneously, split between looking right and left at the same time. In love, for example, they feel like they could find the fulfillment they’ve been craving for so long.

On the other hand, they also want to gain independence and happiness for themselves, outside of a relationship.

The main idea here is that they should first start building their confidence in an attempt to find their identity. They need to discover themselves, their motivations and deep desires, convictions, and personal principles.

Before searching for happiness in a relationship, they must first find it within themselves, and these women with Pluto in Libra need to perfectly balance things out in their own way.

Extroverted individuals, they tend to lean towards social relationships more, but introspection will have to be prioritized here.
