Pluto has been in Capricorn since 2008/2009 and will remain there until almost the end of November 2024. However, from the 20th of January 2024 until the 2nd of September 2024, Pluto will transit into Aquarius. This transition is significant as it provides a taste of what the future holds, with a positive influence on Sagittarius.
