Pluto is the planet of rebirth after death. Pluto’s retrograde, known as the Lord of the Underworld, affects us on a psychic level, working on the deeper layers of our being.
The Lord of the Underworld will enter his own Underworld on May 1st, 2023, and will emerge on October 10th, 2023, with deeper insights and wisdom.
Pluto Retrograde directs us to reflect on the past’s transformations, what has fallen away, what has risen, and what is still lurking in the shadows.
Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius
In the sign of Aquarius, Pluto begins its retrograde journey. This is Pluto’s first retrograde in Aquarius in our lifetime, making it especially significant.
Pluto will only be retrograde in Aquarius until June 11, when it will return to Capricorn, so this is a unique opportunity to delve deeper into Pluto-Aquarius themes.
Pluto’s entry into Aquarius marked the beginning of a powerful and new cycle. Some believe it is the start of our transition into the Age of Aquarius.
Pluto in Aquarius is said to give technology more power, a greater emphasis on community and humanitarianism, and spiritual advancement.
Every aspect of what Pluto brings has a positive and negative side. Every aspect of what Pluto brings is destined to cause deaths, rebirths, and profound transformations.
Pluto represents the process of everything burning and rising when the ashes are ready to be transformed.
Navigating Pluto Retrograde
We are guided to reflect on the cycles of death and rebirth in our own lives during a Pluto Retrograde.
We may be drawn to look at two different time periods. The first is scheduled for March 23, 2023. What changes have occurred since this time? How have we evolved and changed? How did we resurrect ourselves?
The next time period to consider is since October 8, 2022. This was Pluto’s final day in Retrograde. How has your life changed since this date? What deaths and rebirths have occurred? What transformations have you undergone?
Pluto’s approach is subtle, so it can be difficult to discern how it has been moving through our lives. Even asking these questions may not provide us with the clarity we require to comprehend our planet’s journey.
Pluto works on the deeper layers, and we can truly understand the wisdom, lessons, and transformations it was destined to bring only after it has completed its journey in a zodiac sign.
Pluto is nearing the end of its journey in Capricorn, but as this retrograde shows, there is still work to be done because Pluto will return to Capricorn throughout 2023 and most of 2024.
Pluto will not return to Aquarius until November 2024, completing the new cycle and providing us with a complete picture of the Pluto in Capricorn journey.
Here are a few ideas for utilizing its energy:
How to Use the Energy of Pluto Retrograde
- Take a look at your life since March 2023 and/or October 2022. What changes have been made, and how should they be tweaked or adjusted?
- Respect any desire for quiet, reflective reflection.
- Connect with your shadow self. What needs to be brought to light?
- Face what you are afraid of. Recognize that it no longer has power over you.
- Let go of what you no longer have control over.
- Release any lingering shadows from your past that are causing blockages or pain.
- Take control of your life. Determine what beliefs, situations, or relationships are making you feel powerless.
