Pluto In The 12th House
With your Pluto in the 12th house, you have a lot of hidden pain. In fact, most of your intensity is hidden well below the surface of your outer personality.

This makes Pluto in the 12th house people something of an enigma, especially to others.

Pluto in the 12th house indicates that you have a lifetime of extreme transformation in order to deal with the demons that are stored down deep in your unconscious mind. Often, this Plutonian trauma comes from past lives, though the emotions feel very real to you on a daily basis.
Obsessions & Fear:
You are very attuned to the subtleties of life. For example, you probably notice when someone else changes subtly, based on their energy and their facial expressions. However, this perception leads you to fear the outside world in some ways because doing this work is emotionally draining.
With Pluto in the 12th house, you may have a lot of deep-seated fear that you aren’t “good enough” in some way. Often, this fear isn’t even conscious, it’s just a mindset that you live with on a daily basis.
In fact, much of this placement has to do with the idea that you feel inherently unlovable. Your mind is your enemy in some ways, because it perpetuates this myth that there is something wrong with you.

This placement can create intense feelings of instability. You’re afraid of this instability, yet you see no way to escape it.
Pluto in the 12th house can also make you feel as though no one in the world truly understands you or your emotions. It can be a very lonely placement.

For many people with Pluto in the 12th house, a bad sleep schedule actually sends them further into self-loathing.

Now, you probably fear asking other people for help because you don’t want to be seen as weak. You bottle up your emotions and never show the world how you truly feel, but this does nothing to help you solve the problems within your mind.
With Pluto in the 12th house, you may even be frightened of your own feelings. Your emotions can be so powerful that you can be overwhelmed by them and lose all sense of rational thought. This can be incredibly scary.
