Sextile Sun – Pluto

(Transit. Sun → Natal Pluto)

Various sources for the child’s horoscope

Your child has a strong ability to concentrate and a powerful will. Their ingenuity and prudence attract other children to them. They know how to respond appropriately to defeats and losses. It is very important for them to learn how to set goals that are within their reach. The child may perceive their father as all-knowing and all-powerful (these qualities arise in the child’s imagination due to observations of life situations).

Ingenuity, strength of will, the ability to restore energy—both their own and that of others. An invisible but powerful energy flow emanates from them, giving them endurance and resilience that others lack. Even when their strength runs out, they unconsciously restore it. Interest in yoga, meditation, and occultism.

Catherine Aubier. Astrological Dictionary

Conjunction: an aspect of hidden power that is consciously concealed, providing great opportunities for subtle manipulation of others, like a “Deus ex machina” in ancient theater. Strong will, a tendency toward self-assertion, not wanting to owe anyone anything, living by their own mind. The ability to change everything, to question everything. Psychologically, the parental model holds great significance, but this model is either poorly realized or becomes unacceptable.

Trine, sextile: the meaning is the same, but the ability to regenerate is especially emphasized. The person has significant inner resources that always allow them to change course—sometimes to the opposite—depending on their interests.

Sextile Sun: An incorrect choice most often signifies not frivolity or a mistake, but a betrayal of one’s own higher self. The Sun sextile gives the person opportunities in areas governed by the planet, the realization of which will require willpower and initiative from them; it is likely that in the process of working through these opportunities, they will encounter rather rigid, imperative circumstances that, however, will not be hostile to them—instead, they will be potentially friendly but will demand a certain approach and mutual adaptation. The Sun sextile seems to throw a masculine challenge at the person (in the areas governed by the planet), offering to test their willpower, capable of overcoming obstacles and establishing cooperation; the obstacles implied here are non-antagonistic, and the cooperation is expected to be beneficial and effective. If the person does not feel ready to accept this challenge, they may reject it: once, twice, three times… Over time, such a consistent unwillingness to accept any constructive offers from fate begins to work against the person, leading to their degradation and falling into rigid karmic programs where their choices are minimal or nonexistent. On the other hand, the Sun sextile provides a very valuable opportunity to work through its principle—that is, one’s willpower—during constructive activities related to the planet. By resolving internal issues that arise in connection with such activities, the person learns to direct their willpower correctly, gains the ability to determine which egregore guides them, and aligns it with external circumstances and various subconscious programs. For example, the Sun–Moon sextile is a highly promising aspect; in particular, it offers great opportunities for both physical and spiritual development. At a high level, it is an aspect of spiritual teachers who have a deep understanding of the relationship between higher and lower principles in a specific person and know how to guide them onto a constructive path of evolutionary development.

Sextile Pluto: When striving to make the world worthy of yourself, remember that this is impossible. The Pluto sextile gives the person opportunities for purification in the areas governed by the planet, and these opportunities should not be neglected. In life, this influence often does not have a very pronounced emphasis, but the person still notices that when choosing and realizing the opportunities offered by the planet, they must be careful, as incorrect actions—and especially any shoddy work—lead to irreversible losses and the collapse of constructive undertakings. Sometimes Pluto may offer the planetary principle several options for sacrifice, and in such cases, the person should be very cautious and not act on impulse; at the very least, they should try not to postpone the sacrifice for as long as possible: sudden blows from the Plutonian current are always better prevented in advance. Working through this aspect leads to the purification of the planetary principle in the person’s inner life, including subconscious programs related to the areas of the planet’s influence. This purification happens almost automatically as a side effect of the person’s internal efforts directed toward achieving a specific goal among those offered by the sextile. It includes, in particular, the eradication of the thirst for power over people that the planetary principle activates in the person. At a high level, the emphasis in the sextile may shift to Pluto (at an average level, this rarely happens and indicates severe blows from fate), and then the person actively participates in large-scale programs related to burning through karmic knots. In the concrete forms of their work, the constructive influence of the planet will be felt. At a low level, the person will try to avoid constructive purification and sacrifices for themselves, attempting to postpone them for as long as possible or shift them onto others over whom they have power in the areas governed by the planet and whose flaws they can clearly see. With good energy, this projection may work out for some time (with effort), but playing with Plutonian programs always follows the principle of “the sword that was raised by the sword shall perish,” meaning that the purification of others either precedes or is followed by voluntary or forced self-purification.

Ingenuity, strength of will, the ability to regenerate themselves and those around them. An almost imperceptible but powerful energy emanates from them, giving them endurance and resilience that others lack.

This brings success and the ability to capture the attention of others, to subordinate them, popularity, enthusiasm, enterprise, a thirst for novelty, the ability to ignite and inspire. The negative side is that easy success breeds overconfidence and a sense of entitlement, as well as the temptation to use one’s position for personal gain.
