Uranus-Pluto Semisquare

(Transit Uranus → Natal Pluto)

Avesalom Podvodny. Aspects

Uranus semisquare: Real difficulties begin when a person ceases to accommodate their own concept. At a high level of integration, this aspect grants ingenuity in assembling structures from ready-made blocks within the sphere of the planet, where the individual will receive the most unexpected and sometimes brilliant ideas, yet ultimately the house they design and build will be comfortable and cozy only for other people—if the person carefully considers their wishes, and from their own point of view, the house will still turn out lifeless, albeit original in construction. For example, someone with a Moon-Uranus semisquare and Uranus in the sixth house might devise an excellent system of physical exercises or techniques for self-control, relaxation, etc., which will produce only an external, superficial effect for themselves, yet prove highly effective and meaningful for others, and it is precisely toward others that they should orient themselves. At a low level, this aspect brings rigidity and capriciousness within the planetary spheres—capricious demands the person cannot explain but considers mandatory, often hurting both others and themselves. These signs should be noted, but interpreting them correctly will be difficult; there is particular danger of dogmatic and straightforward interpretations, especially when the semisquare is afflicted, escalating to obsession. Pluto semisquare: The mafia should be buried in bulletproof coffins. At a low level, this individual tends to ruthlessly eradicate evil within the planetary spheres according to their clear conceptions of it, and precisely in the clarity and precision of these conceptions lies both their strength and the limitation of their evolutionary development, which they will understand only much later. For example, a Moon-Pluto semisquare may produce a great censor, an oncological surgeon, or a psychotherapist, but in any case, this person will possess a clear image of evil and well-practiced techniques for its destruction. Internally, this aspect brings rigidity and uncompromising attitudes toward certain personal flaws, strangely combined with the neglect of others, and here the individual should act indirectly, working on improving the external world in their interest or other areas of the inner world, only then activating their Plutonian tools—be it a set of toothbrushes or clothing brushes, depending on Pluto’s placement in the first or fifth house, respectively. An unprocessed aspect may result in deep inner traumas, as well as fatal disharmonious circumstances in external life, which will be karmic reactions to conscious or unconscious cruelty displayed by the person in attempts at crude “cleansing” of the planetary spheres without understanding their true issues.
