Synastry: Venus-Pluto Aspects Between Two Charts

When Venus in one chart forms an aspect to another person’s Pluto

Venus conjunct other person’s Pluto

There is a strong pull between these two that can be fascinating, intensely attractive, and yet also disturbing at times. These two share a deep emotional tie. The Pluto person seems to have a window into the Venus person’s soul at times and can use this special connection for better or for worse. As the relationship progresses, the Pluto person may behave in a possessive manner towards the Venus person.

This is one indication of a karmic tie. This pairing of planets is one of the stronger indications of intense sexual attraction. This is a passionate connection but should be managed so that it doesn’t turn into a love-hate union. Obsessive behavior is also a possibility. The Pluto person may demand more intimacy than the Venus person is willing to give or capable of giving.

This relationship seems to change and evolve, and can be characterized by many dramas and emotional ups and downs. Times of frustration are followed by enlightenment and release, as the bond that these two share is not a light or superficial one whatsoever.

Intense, and sometimes uncomfortable, attraction between these two can go either way fast. The expression “a fine line between love and hate” applies here. This connection is almost primal in nature. Sexual attraction is intense. These two will definitely need to deal with issues of possessiveness, jealousy, and volatile emotions. They arouse in one another some of their deepest insecurities, as there can be an intense fear of losing one another.

This interchart aspect can sometimes be indicative of unrequited love or of a relationship that eventually breeds anger and even hatred. Power struggles and manipulation are quite possible. This is not a relationship to take lightly. If the relationship were to break up, it would be unlikely that the two would be able to remain “just friends”, as the passion is hard to forget. Staying together may be a challenge as well! The Pluto person often seems to have the upper hand in this relationship, which can be unnerving and frustrating for the Venus person. Jealousies and manipulative behavior should be watched for and avoided as much as possible.

This is a very supportive interchart aspect that enhances sexual attraction and expression and the overall sense of emotional fulfillment derived from a relationship. The tendency to be consumed by one another and by the relationship is here. There is little chance of this relationship growing routine or stale. Both parties seem to enjoy moving forward and growing through the relationship, so that each feels a sense of relief and enlightenment after a relationship challenge or argument.

Additional Interpretations:

*If this is the most exact aspect between your charts, your main relationship theme is to embrace empowerment and share power with others for the common good.

Easier aspects: You will have a strong and deep bond with each other that is unforgettable. Your passions and desires are blended together, and you can accomplish big feats by harnessing your focus to the strength of your desire. Others will notice your commitment and feel your magnetism. You can create a big impact for good in your environment and encourage others to express their full potential.

Challenging aspects: Your powerful urges and desires will sometimes lead to possessiveness, jealousies, and desire to control others. The lesson to be learned from this aspect is that holding on too tightly will cause you to lose what you want most. Learn to relax your grip and trust that what belongs to you will stay with you willingly, no need to force it. Issues of scarce resources or feelings of not enough can create financial problems or anger. If you are struggling, get some help through classes or personal counseling to resolve and loosen negative habits.
