Today, May 1, Pluto turns retrograde in Aquarius for the next five months. It goes direct on October 10.
What does this mean? Well, for one thing, Pluto is incredibly important in astrology. It is the planet (dwarf planet now, according to NASA) of major transformation. It represents the cycles of birth, death, and rebirth.
Whatever your Pluto is in your chart, it’s how you approach major problems, those of the existential variety, but also big life decisions.
This retrograde in Pluto will not be easy. It will feel heavy, confusing, and like we are sorting something out in areas that have to do with addiction (not just to substances but to people and things), the need to control a narrative, and self-destructive behaviors or patterns.
Below are horoscopes for each sign on how to get through this! Read yours carefully.
Love always,
