SATURN AND PLUTO INTRO
SATURN AND PLUTO, "DIE HARDS"
In 2006 aspects and midpoint combinations of Saturn and Pluto are frequent in the Astromarkt Paper. Also connections of Scorpio with Saturn or of Capricorn and Pluto are more prominent then ever in the messages. What is the meaning of the planets and the combination? You read it here and you find examples of people in the news with the 'die hard' in their chart or in transit. Hillary Clinton is a special example...
SATURN AND PLUTO
SATURN
Saturn symbolises all that concentrates, hardens, makes older and offers disadvantages like poverty, imprisonment, lost, failures and ...the law. Restrictions belong to Saturn and Saturn disposes of Capricorn, the top house. Planet, sign and 10th house refer to the ambitions and carreer, your status and position and the respect you get in life. Saturn is the law, Jupiter is the interpreter of the law.
PLUTO
Pluto is the symbol of power, tests, life and death- issuses, comebacks, influence and everything that is connected to that. Like sexuality, money and gain, oil and stocks, the mob, enemies, violence, profit, prizes, force, potention, resistance, inquieries.
SATURN AND PLUTO TOGETHER
When Saturn and Pluto join forces you get a strong concentration, a focus. Scientific specialism, for example, or the heavy training of a sportsman. Saturn is the governmental law, Pluto is the law of the street (where the strongest is the winner), so if they join eventually the law will win. Strictly maintaining ancient rules: Saturn and Pluto together! Those with both of the planets in the fourth house will have a hard and unpleasant background (but with good aspects there can be done something about or with that experience). You seldom see water in the wine with Saturn and Pluto on the label....
There is a certain 'boomerang' effect with Saturn-Pluto combinations. The slightest error in the past made during a Saturn-Pluto aspect might turn against you later, when Saturn joins Pluto again. Investigations about peoples' past bring errors to the light during a progression or transit that combines the planets and force the native to resign. Saturn brings up the disadvantages of research and investigations. An example is the transit of Saturn on the natal Pluto of football trainer Guus Hiddink in 2005/2006.
SATURN/PLUTO and TRANSITS
All of us have a midpoint Saturn/Pluto somewhere in the chart. You can imagine that this is the focus point of strong concentration, the heavy test or challenge, death. This combination might indicate 'being extremely lonely'. If there is a planet in the natal chart making a hard aspect with the midpoint Saturn/Pluto that will be an important point in life! In politics it is the combination of strong opposition, hard confrontations and harder differences.
Joined with the Sun your health could be the issue, with the Moon nasty memories might come up and won't easily be forgotten. Mercury offers a strategic mind in combination with Saturn/Pluto. Many politicians have Mercury, Saturn and Pluto combined in aspect or midpoint structure.With Venus love and pleasure are related to heavy tests. Mars adds combats and struggle, and this combination is often seen in cases of violence. Jupiter offers some result for all the hard labour and with the MC on Saturn/Pluto you might be ascetic as testing yourself is your life's goal. On the ascendant your way of doing it is stiff and formal and you might look hard and cool
THE EFFECT
Transits of Saturn over Pluto sometimes seem to have no effect at all. That is also so with Transit Pluto over the Sun. In her book 'Predictive astrology' Bernadette Brady says that a certain amount of people does not seem to respond to transits or progressions, but they do respond on solar return charts, lunar retur chart or return charts of Venus or Jupiter or Saturn.
Saturn over Pluto is a generational aspect. This transit is important however for those with power, influence or money to loose. And if Pluto is an important part of your natal chart, you cannot miss this aspect. A prominent Pluto is on the MC or ascendant, around the 15th degree of fixed signs, oriental (ahead of the Sun) or peregrine (no major aspects), in a Yod or a midpoint Yod. Pluto is also important if the planet makes a narrow aspect with a personal planet.
People born between June 1939 and June 1958 experience or experienced Saturn conjunct Pluto first between mid September of 1975 untill end of July of 1978 (first period) and later between mid of July of 2005 and beginnings of September of 2007. When I write this article we are right in the middle of that period!
SATURN TRINE PLUTO
Saturn trine Pluto indicates a harmonic relation between concentration and focus. You are probably someone who can concentrate, be hard (also on yourself) and who knows how to be in control (...also of yourself). A wonderful aspect for an athlete or for a scientific study. Spanish King Juan Carlos has a perfect trine of Saturn and Pluto and he managed to stop a revolution!

HILLARY CLINTON as an example On August 7, 2006 Hillary Clinton had Saturn on top of the conjunction of Mars and Pluto in her natal chart. End of June 1977 that happened before. And it is funny, but some 'googling' will tell you that any time that happens an old story returns about her involvement with Black Panthers. In 1999-2000 that story was news too and...transit Saturn squared Mars-Pluto at that time. It is like a pattern that keeps coming back. It is suggested that she was personally responsable for defending killers and for lobbying for their freedom. Why is this coming back again and again? Because Mars and Pluto are connected to Aries Point! And why is there always a story about money too? Because Saturn disposed of the 8th house of gain, profit and other people's money and because Mars, Saturn and Pluto (a dangerous combination!) are in the second house of money.
