Millennials and Gen Z Going No Contact with Parents

The boomers and older Gen X had Pluto in Leo (1937–1957) and Pluto in Virgo (1957–1972).

Pluto in Leo parents (many boomers) valued legacy, individualism, and authority over their children’s lives. There’s often a sense of "you are an extension of me" or "I made you, so you owe me respect."

Pluto in Virgo parents (some boomers, many Gen X) were critical, perfectionistic, and focused on "fixing" things, often resulting in high parental expectations, strict discipline, and sometimes emotional coldness.

Now, look at millennials and Gen Z:

Pluto in Scorpio (1983–1995) – Millennials are a generation of deep transformation, intense emotional shifts, cutting out toxicity, and seeing through facades. Scorpio rules death and rebirth, trauma healing, and breaking away from control. No contact? That’s so Pluto in Scorpio.

Pluto in Sagittarius (1995–2008) – Gen Z is the truth-seeking, freedom-loving, anti-tradition generation. They crave independence, knowledge, and authenticity. If something is toxic, false, or limiting, they will leave it behind—fast.
