NINTH
HOUSE PLUTO
The
House of Long Journeys - The field of goals and planning
Sense
of purpose and direction. Profound mental interests.
Searches
for new horizons. Distant travel. Residence in foreign lands. Philosophy
and religion. Prophecy. Higher education. Organized
sport. Advertising and publicity.
This
placing may give a compulsive desire to study and to accept mental challenge -
sometimes beyond the individual's scope. As a result, considerable strain and
tension can build up. There may be a need for perfection in every area that
makes intellectual demands. For example, letters and articles will be written
and rewritten many times and one may find it difficult to rest content with
the results of labors of this kind.
Such
a striving for perfection can sometimes mean that the person becomes
discontented and frustrated by their chosen course of study while taking
further education. As a result, that course can be terminated - often with
disgust. If the individual has reached this critical point, they should
consider carefully the taking of such drastic action, since they may be
demonstrating the Pluto tendency of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
A
strongly aspected ninth house Pluto stimulates the desire to understand the
fundamental forces of man and nature. Awesome metaphysical experiences can
alter a person's entire outlook in a flash of insight. The mind peers beyond
itself into a vortex of whirling forces, and outward toward spiral nebulae of
spinning stars, and forever after knows that nothing is as simple as it seems.
This
individual can blow their mind if they overindulge in drugs or alcohol but, if
they will, they can also regenerate themselves through the use of their higher
mental powers.
