Johan,
Thank you for your natal data, it makes it much easier to build and interpret a chart. I read on another thread where you are interested in Rhudyar's work and thats a good way to start! Rhudyar is considered profound. Especially since the aspect(s) were profound enough to motivate you to write to the forum!
My daughter has been going through something similar to your experience with Pluto as well. Her Pluto has not squared her natal Pluto yet, but it will very soon. Periods of upheaval and pressures that seem to come from out of nowhere! She too, has Libra rising as well.
As I suspected, the transiting Pluto is squaring your natal Pluto and its going to be affecting you for a little while longer. I also noted that Uranus is squaring your Mars.
Squares in the transit natal chart should be viewed as a time when a big effort is required by the person experiencing it to face the challenges it presents. If you 'fear' or run from the challenge it will restrict your energy available to deal effectively with whatever problems or challenges the square presents.
Pluto is transiting my 1st house, Pluto has been in opposition to my moon, squaring my Uranus, etc for a number of years now. I learned the harder I pushed back against controlling forces through either confrontation or escapist techniques, the worse the situation became and the angrier and more resentful I became. Since realizing this and learning and accepting that these are 'life' lessons that I need to learn to be a better person overall and have a better life, my attitude overall has definitely improved! Oh of course things/people still rear their heads at me in the form of 'controlling' types in my life, thats just life, the difference is in how I cope and deal with them.
This site contains interpretations from the same book that I own, by Robert Hand, and is available online so I wont type it, you can go and read for yourself. If you havent done so already by all means use the astrodienst site, its free, insightful and is a great tool for building charts.

Some years ago I had a brilliant anatomy professor who was idly chatting with a small group of us in the class one day. He related to some of our scholastic struggles into advanced anatomy and physiology and how it had been difficult subject for him as well. Well, that surprised me! The man was extremely intelligent in my estimation and not just because he held a doctorate or taught the course. The professor went on to explain that in medical school he and the other students werent much different than us, some were very studious and focused and others lacked some initiative and got by with as little studying as possible. He and some buddies taunted and teased one fellow who always had a minimum of six books on every single course they studied.
One day the future professor stopped and asked him about the 'whys' he had so very many books on hand for each and every subject and wasnt spending that money on other things. His fellow student replied that he had done some reading on the learning process since he was having difficulties on grasping some courses. In the course of his reading, he read about a psychologist who was an expert on learning and cognitive theories explained that learning is reinforced through at least six different perspectives. So to end this story, my professor made it through and received his doctorate and achieved moderate success as the head of the science department of the college I attended and his buddy is now one of the nation's top neuro-vascular surgeons in this country, owns an institute that instructs other physicians in the same field and also co-owns a major hospital in a large metropolitan city, here in the USA. So much for spending your extra money on things other than learning if you are serious on the subject...
The professor's story and advice have resounded for me for years. I always try to read at least six different perspectives on the same subject and it works very well compounding theories I was familiar with but also assists in insights that might not have been apparent in a prior theory. I feel he gave me a 'gift' or 'blessing' and I always share what I am blessed with if I think it will help others. So I will help you by encouraging you to read the aspects discussed in your forecast on the Astro.com site, provide you with my own notes (even if I can't cite the sites, sorry Sita, still looking!), and with the internet at your fingertips, I'm sure you can find a multitude of other sources to read and compound your learning.
PLUTO TRANSITING YOUR 2ND HOUSE (approx. 14-30 years duration)
You may desire greater material security during this period. Initially you may suffer severe loss or destruction of personal property, or severe reversals of fortune. As you recover financial control, you may become more involved in joint finances, corporate funds, taxes, insurance, and pensions. You may become increasingly resourceful and find new uses for outworn or discarded things. You hunt for ways to regenerate wealth and build security.
PLUTO TRANSITING YOUR 3RD HOUSE (approx. 14-30 years duration)
During this period you may desire greater access and control over information. You may be prone to discredit through exposed secrets and misuse of confidential information. As a precaution, you may tend to closely monitor and guard your thinking patterns and your communication, eliminating old assumptions and mental attitudes. Freedom of information, free speech, and censorship can be emotional issues. Caution is needed in signing important papers and contracts. Caution also is advised in negotiating traffic when traveling.
Here is the interpretation for the square:
PLUTO SQUARE YOUR PLUTO (Long-duration, 5-10+ weeks)
Occurs between age 40-65 according to your generation. This period can be significant to your eventual retirement. It's a good time to reevaluate your financial security plans, your will, taxes, and insurance. Eliminate financially unproductive areas and put more effort into meaningful pursuits. You may face termination of employment or a financial position that could force you to become more resourceful. With others in your age group, you may have to reevaluate attitudes towards death and survival, sharing and trust.
Also Uranus has just completed transiting your 5th house and has just entered the 6th. Like the Pluto transit and square wasn't enough 'fun', here's more 'fun' to contend with:
URANUS TRANSITING YOUR 5TH HOUSE (approx. 7 years duration)
You may have a desire for greater freedom, originality, and excitement in your creative and pleasure-seeking self-expression during this period. Your social and romantic life can be more stimulating, but you are prone to unstable romantic infatuations. Unexpected pregnancy is more likely to occur at this time. Children may behave more erratically. Speculation can bring sudden gains and losses. You may tend to associate more with artistic, innovative, and eccentric friends.
URANUS TRANSITING YOUR 6TH HOUSE (approx. 7 years duration)
During this period you may tend to desire greater freedom and excitement in your work. You may be involved in union or group activities. You may use technological innovation in the work environment. Your employment situation tends to be unstable and you are prone to sudden changes of jobs. Health problems may be due to nervousness or eccentric tastes in diet. Favorable for computer, engineering, and health professions.
URANUS SQUARE YOUR MARS (Long-duration, 5-10+ weeks)
You may feel tense due to unexpected changes which make you subject to quarrels and outbursts of temper towards friends and colleagues. You may desire freedom at any cost. Discipline your rebellious originality, and use moderation and ingenuity in your actions. Avoid foolish risks which could cause accidents with explosives, machinery, or electricity.
Remember to read that interpretation by Robert Hand as well. Read everything you can about having the energies of Mercury in Pisces in the 6th house, Pluto in Virgo in the 12th, and your Mars in Sag in the 3rd house. Dont just read an excerpt of an interpretation, read it and
apply the sign's energies and the planet's flow of those energies within your self and natal chart.
It isnt all bad. There are lots of 'good' aspects going on in your life as well! Balance and harmony are there for you, Johan.
In closing, there is an open thread about Pluto transits on the forum under the topic, 'natal and predictive astrology', I hope you will also read those posts and they help you as well. TC Wilson, Elianah, Baker, (just to name a few) and many others here are very generous in sharing their experience and insight if you have further questions and dont hesitate to ask them. Without any doubts, we all learn from this forum, no matter the level of experience and expertise or, the lack of it...
Ok, my Mars transiting my 5th house beckons and I must go fulfill the transit interpretation to the best of my ability!
MARS TRANSITING YOUR 5TH HOUSE (approx. 65 days duration)
The accent is on romance and fun. You'll enjoy barbecues, exhibitions, hobbies, games with children, and love affairs. You can perfect your creative skills, or entertain and amuse others. Design something artistic. Improve your lifestyle. If you're not in shape, don't try foolish stunts or living dangerously.
I just wont go skydiving...
