Find Pluto in Your Birth Chart: You can do this by getting your birth chart from an astrological website or app (I use TimeNomad) using your birth date, time and location.

Analyze the House: The house Pluto is in reveals the specific area of your life (e.g. relationships, money, career) where you will experience these profound changes and power struggles.
Consider Aspects: When Pluto forms angles (aspects) to other plants in your chart, it intensifies and colors those plants with themes of power, obsession, and transformation.
