Pluto in the 10th House

The 10th house is the house of career, society and one’s face to the greater society.It is, also, the house of the more dominant parent. The 4th house is, usually, the mother and the 10th, the father. However, the 10th is, actually, the more influential parent, whether for good or bad. Often, the person with Pluto in the 10th will have a tyrant for a parent. That native will be quick to tell you about it, as is has shaped his life. People may know him as someone who is, inextricably, tied to this parent. He may even be the brunt of jokes, as he is so obsessed. Remember, Pluto is the planet of obsession and give him a little grace. The 10th house is opposite the 4th house, which rules early childhood, and one’s childhood home. In contrast, the 10th house rules ones “home” in the greater society. The sign on the cusp will reveal how he shows his face to society. However, whatever the sign on the cusp, the Pluto in the 10th house native will make a splash. Pluto is loud, in his own way, even if it is a fist in a velvet glove. Pluto equals power. This native will make his presence known in whatever group he may join. He will, usually, rise to the top. One interesting fact about this Pluto is that if he is not the leader, he will not submit to a leader whom he cannot respect. He is rare in that he will stand up and be counted even if it goes against the crowd. He eschews sheep mentality. He can deal with dislike of him, but not weakness in his own moral character. He carries himself with dignity and expects the same from you, if you are to be his intimate. Even if he seems like a retiring creature when you meet him at a cocktail party, be aware that he is not. If you meet him in the boardroom, he will be a tiger. Know that and act accordingly. You know by now, not to toy with Pluto.
