The Pluto generations differ from each other and can be gauged against the events of those times. There will be additional factors since for example the mid 1960s Pluto in Virgo had the rebellious, reforming, status-quo-upsetting Uranus Pluto conjunction. Way back when, the Pluto in Gemini generation also had Neptune in Gemini to contend with. So not all simple.
Of them all I have always thought Pluto through Cancer was the most difficult (damaging) at an emotional level.

A Pluto in Aquarius sage: Michel de Montaigne, born February 1533
“He who fears he shall suffer, already suffers what he fears.”
“My life has been full of terrible misfortunes most of which never happened.”
“I know well what I am fleeing from but not what I am in search of.”
“He who establishes his argument by noise and command shows that his reason is weak.”
“Nothing is so firmly believed as what we least know.”
“Not being able to govern events, I govern myself.”
“The truth of these days is not that which really is, but what every man persuades another man to believe.”
