Interpreting Pluto in the sign of its house polarity

Hi Stephanie,

I don't know the correct terminology for this. For example, Pluto in Libra in the 1st house. Would we interpret this in a way that the soul would be needing to find a balance between one's independence and own needs vs needs of others in relationship?

Yes.

And would then unconsciously initiate different kinds of relationships in order to learn to honor their own needs? Would the polarity point reflect the same thing as we are still talking about Libra and Aries archetypes?

With the 1st house Pluto in Libra a Soul will have, previous to the current life, felt an instinctual sense of having a special life to live that required essential freedom in order to be able to initiate any experience they wanted to have in order to discover, on an ongoing basis, what that special something was. As a result, the Soul typically would have chosen various partners wherein each one reflected something of what they essentially needed from someone in a relationship without any one person reflecting all of what they needed.

In so doing they of course kept learning about what all of their needs were/ are via each relationship. In orientating to relationship in this way it was like creating a natural exit point for each of these types of relationships because of the underlying need for freedom. In turn many of the relationships formed in this way would be also with others who could only commit to a relationship for a certain amount of time. Sometimes that 'commitment' was for a day, a night.

The underlying fear is most Souls with Pluto in the 1st in general is a fear of entrapment.

With the Pluto polarity point being in the 7th house/ Aries the evolutionary lesson and intention is to learn how to be a relationship that is committed too for a great length of time that can also mean for the entire life. The key to do this is to choose a partner whose orientation to the relationship, as it must be for the Pluto in the 1st/Libra person, is that they want to be in the relationship BECAUSE THEY WANT TO BE, NOT BECAUSE THEY NEED TO BE.

Within this a Soul who is able to stand on their own two feet, and is able to actualize what their life is about through their own efforts which reflects the essential independence that the 1st House Pluto/Libra Soul is also about, and needs from another. Because of this orientation both Souls will not feel threatened by what the other needs to do at any point in time. They will naturally support and encourage the independent development of each other that is occurring because of and through the relationship itself.

I've also come across this with the lunar nodes. For example, NN in Gemini in 9th house, SN Sag in 3rd house. What would this mean in terms of the evolutionary past and current intent of the soul?

*************

This correlates to a Soul who has desired to understand the higher meanings of life itself: the big picture. With the S.Node in the 3rd this then means a Soul who has been collecting information from a diversity of sources for many lifetimes without discovering a core understanding, a metaphysical, philosophical, or religious one, in which all possible ways of looking at and understanding life itself, the manifest Creation, can be related too.

With the N.Node in the 9th in Gemini that is the actual intention in the current life. This also means not just something to 'believe' in, but something that can be actually known. I know the sky is blue for example, I do not need to 'believe' it. The same is true for Souls that want to understand or know the Source Of All Things: God/ess. It is not at all necessary to just 'believe' in this but relative to natural laws, 9th House/Sagittarius, is in fact knowable. It is simply a matter of remembering or learning about the natural law of the breath and what naturally occurs when that breath is suspended.

God Bless, Rad
