Pluto was discovered in 1930 / 31 by two great American astronomers, Lowel and Pickering, so his glyph in America is a combination of the two initials. As it takes about twenty years in each House of the Zodiac it will be sometime before astrologers can definitely state what exactly is Pluto's influence in any individual chart. However, so far it is believed that Pluto emphasises the sphere of experience through which transformations occur, resulting in explosive endings and beginnings to distant phases of a person's life. I think everyone is familiar with the original story of Pluto, the brother of Jupiter, who carried off the daughter of Ceres - the Corn Goddess, and only released her at the beginning of Spring. So, these old fertility rites are all due to Pluto whose dark, gloomy abode represents the hidden psyche of the natives chart. Where Pluto lands on the chart, the astrologer can predict strange and sudden happenings connected with that particular house. Secrets can be revealed, events are abruptly started. To be absolutely sure of this planet's influence we will have to wait until the year 2170 when Pluto will have completed his entire circumnavigation in our era, but will we care by then?
