Recently, I had an illuminating session with my astrologer, Tracey Rogers, who revealed something profound about my chart: I was born under a Hades Moon. I’ll be honest—I had no idea what that meant at first, but as Tracey walked me through it, the pieces began to fall into place.
A Hades Moon describes a natal moon that is in a powerful relationship with Pluto, which means emotions, instincts, and the subconscious are colored by Pluto’s energy of transformation, power, and even the underworld. The more I learn about it, the more I’m beginning to understand the depths of this placement and how it manifests in my life.
What It Means to Have a Hades Moon
The Hades Moon reveals a person who feels emotions on an intense, often profound level. Those of us born under this moon don’t just feel—we experience. We live through our emotions in such a way that they become a source of transformation and, in many cases, healing. It’s a moon that requires you to confront life’s darker aspects, both within and outside yourself, and to allow those aspects to shape who you are.
For me, this feels like an invitation to understand and embrace emotions I’ve sometimes avoided. The weight of emotions, relationships, and life experiences with a Hades Moon can be heavy, often coming with cycles of loss, rebirth, and, ultimately, empowerment. I realize that in many ways, I’m deeply attuned to other people’s feelings—almost as if I can sense what they’re carrying under the surface, even when they try to hide it. (I have known for some time now that I am an empath so this Hades Moon makes so much sense to me.) This is a gift, but it also requires that I pay attention to my own boundaries, a lesson I’m still learning to embrace fully.
The Impact of Pluto’s Transition into Aquarius
As Pluto prepares to move into Aquarius, there’s a whole new chapter on the horizon for those of us with a Hades Moon. Pluto’s energy is one of profound transformation, and in Aquarius, it will bring a focus on social structures, innovation, and collective change. Aquarius is about breaking boundaries, and Pluto’s presence there will amplify this, challenging outdated beliefs and sparking revolutionary energy that encourages us to envision a new way forward.
For me, this transition feels like a call to embrace my own evolution on a personal level. Aquarius is progressive and forward-thinking, and Pluto’s move into this sign pushes me to reconsider what I value, how I define community, and my role within the collective. This shift feels like a powerful moment to release any restrictive patterns or beliefs I’ve been holding onto—especially those related to self-worth, relationships, and how I connect with others.
Navigating My Hades Moon Journey through Pluto’s Influence
With Pluto in Aquarius, I sense that my Hades Moon journey is about to deepen. This transition is a chance to reevaluate and recreate the structures within my life that no longer resonate with the person I am becoming. As I explore my Hades Moon, I’m discovering that this placement encourages a journey inward, a process of shedding what no longer serves and emerging with a greater understanding of my inner power.
The transition also feels like an invitation to redefine what freedom and authenticity mean to me. Pluto is about personal empowerment, and as it moves into Aquarius, there’s a distinct call to be authentic and innovative. I’m beginning to see that my Hades Moon is not simply a shadow to manage—it’s a source of strength and wisdom. By embracing my own emotional depths, I’m learning to cultivate resilience and a capacity to support others who may be going through similar transformations.
What Lies Ahead on This Path
This journey is, and likely will continue to be, one of intense personal growth and understanding. I’m learning to sit with my emotions without judgment, to honor them as teachers. With Pluto’s energy joining forces with my Hades Moon, I’m realizing that the themes of power, transformation, and healing are part of my calling. They’re what make me who I am, and they’re essential to the work I’m meant to do in this world.
If you’re on a similar journey or feel Pluto’s influence in your life, perhaps you’ll understand this journey into the depths. It’s challenging, yes, but it’s also immensely rewarding. I am still discovering what it means to live fully with a Hades Moon, but as I continue this path, I am ready to embrace the depth, to transform, and to rise.
So here’s to the power of transformation, to the beauty of growth, and to the strength we find within ourselves when we venture where others may not.
