Pluto in Libra Personality

Can one aggressively seek peace and balance? Pluto in Libra believes so. In fact, the essence of their character is defined by this drive, as they chase revolution without bloodshed. Like all Libra placements, Libra Pluto is diplomatic in nature and seeks simplicity. Where social movements are concerned, this marks a generation that is more open-minded than its predecessors and demands—not asks—that people respect how others approach love and relationships. Therefore, nontraditional partnerships aren't uncommon in this cohort.

In general, Pluto in Libra is fairly other-oriented. "Us vs. them" is a foreign concept for these folks, as they tend to be social creatures. Relating to others is more or less a goal with this placement.

Positive Traits

Similar to Pluto In Leo, Libra Pluto possessed the ability to curate a powerful image. The Libran influence places a heavy emphasis on social networks. However, the purpose of this image is less based on personal gratification and more on social improvement. These are the individuals who, at their best, use their platforms to better humanity in some way. Perhaps more than any other Libra placement, injustice truly disgusts them, and Pluto gives them just the right amount of fight to combat it in all its forms.

Negative Traits

In their search for an elegant answer to life's troubles, Pluto in Libra often complicates things further. The landscape of their relationships is riddled with contradictions. Libra Pluto seeks freedom from traditional notions of partnership yet intensely craves love. At their worst, connection becomes an obsession, their behavior provoking the very separation that they feared.

In this way, those with this placement may fail to understand that the more they chase love, the more it evades them. With their natural urge toward human connection, those with this placement can be quite the social climbers when it suits them.

Conclusion

Pluto meets Venus, Libra's planetary ruler, in a somewhat awkward waltz. The intensity of Pluto and the peaceable urge of Venus create some discomfort here, and their desire to connect with others can come across as excessive. However, it's rare that they truly need to force their way anywhere. Charm and diplomacy are the preferred tools of Libra Pluto natives. How good they are at wielding them depends upon the prominence of Pluto within the chart.

Still, just as fulfilling as those with their Pluto in Libra find their interpersonal relationships, they can also be a source of stress. The devil is in the details for these folks, and they tend to get lost in them.
