Sun opposition Pluto in the Natal Chart
The Sun opposes Pluto in the natal chart
Sun opposite Pluto
With the Sun in opposition to Pluto in your birth chart, you might find that you frequently face all-or-nothing dilemmas. For example, you might pour so much attention into your domestic world that your professional life suffers, or vice versa. Generally, you go hard in whatever you choose to do. Your intensity and obsessiveness are notable, although not always apparent, and because this is a difficult aspect, they can sometimes lead to challenges in your journey.
One of the most important aspects of your journey is recognizing and managing your fears. With time and effort, you’re likely to become much more adept at it. Before you recognize this need, you might frequently find yourself driven by them. For example, when you’re enjoying yourself or feeling light-hearted, you could instinctively expect the other shoe to drop, living with feelings of impending doom. The fear of something changing when you least expect it can be a persistent one, and it can undermine your happiness if you’re not careful.
This aspect pits your dark side (Pluto) against the light side (the Sun). With the opposition, projection can occur when you don’t own, digest, process, and express the Pluto part of you. You might meet Pluto energies in relationships (especially with males) and/or swing between expressing Pluto energies and the Sun energies. As such, attracting tumultuous, crisis-oriented, challenging, or possibly even dangerous relationships can be an extreme of this aspect.
You may have had a relationship with a parent or parental figure with themes of domination, one-upping, overruling, or other power plays or displays of “strength” that are at the root of some of your fears or behaviors. Another possibility is experiencing dramatic changes or uprooting in early life that are behind your fear of change as an adult.
You have tremendous energy at your disposal. The key is to manage it effectively. You can be provocative without even trying, and you can also be reactive. This can lead to interpersonal challenges, wherein you attract too many frustrating situations that involve power games or power plays. However, learning to control these automatic reactions and expectations, as well as identifying a tendency to subconsciously make everything an issue of control or power, can lead to significantly better relationships and experiences.

Alternate interpretations from our reports (and more):
Sun opposition Pluto: You are infused with a sense of personal destiny or mission, and can be extremely driven or possibly obsessed. Learning about power and how to use it for good is definitely part of your path. You confront abusive power, tyranny, and dominating people who will teach you about power, and eventually force you to claim your own.
— Interpretation from the Merlin Report.
Sun opposition Pluto: SUN IS IN HARD ASPECT TO YOUR PLUTO
You are locked in a deep inner struggle that seems like life or death to you. This can spill over into your everyday life as violent outbursts and a quarrelsome nature. Your will is very powerful but perhaps misdirected. Even if you are presumptuous, defensive, and boastful, your life will change dramatically and instantaneously for the better as soon as you stop attacking others and refuse to even blame anyone else for your difficulties. Then, you will be able to really start controlling yourself. When this happens you will lose your desire to control others completely and forever.
SUN OPPOSITION YOUR PLUTO
Frustrating compromises with others can leave a deep and grim emotional pattern. You feel that you aren’t in control of your own emotional life. Consequently, being open with others is quite difficult. As you learn to share power and free others from your control, life improves and your natural ability to find depth and substance finds a positive outlet. — Interpretation from the The In-Depth Report.
Sun opposition Pluto: You may continually run into power plays – situations in which you feel overwhelmed. With your Sun in opposition to Pluto, your identity is continually evolving, and your search for yourself may seem to be endless. In some respects, that can be a positive experience, particularly if you are probing into your psyche and releasing the elements you’ve outgrown or no longer need. You can also become obsessed and may not know when to stop turning over rocks or looking for bad guys. You are a powerful woman, capable of stimulating growth and change. Sometimes, you expose corruption in the process, but other times, you find an absolute treasure.
— Interpretation from the Profile for Women Report.
From the Body & Soul report: Sun opposite Pluto indicates difficulties with others in situations that involve their ego. There may be situations where these individuals tend to force their will over others, attempting to transform the rules according to their own. Life is constantly presenting obstacles from others who seem to have more power or control than the native. They are also possibly overly aggressive in matters of sex and romance.
Political disputes and social revolutions harbor a source of danger for these native. Learning the rule of the game is the way to success rather than direct confrontations. These individuals may develop a hyper metabolism which may result in acidosis and severe nutritional deficiencies.
PATHOLOGICAL TENDENCIES: In rare cases, malignancy; prostate problems; colitis, diverticulosis, dysbiosis; hypothyroidism; sinusitis; vaginitis, cystitis; ill health in male nativities.
NUTRITIONAL ASPECTS: Severe deficiencies of vitamins A & D, iodine, magnesium.
BENEFICIAL FOODS: Carrots, squash, green leafy vegetables, tea, whole grains.
Note: of course, a natal chart reading does not replace professional health visits. Sometimes, however, it can alert us to potential problems.
