Pluto with turn retrograde @ 3 degrees Aquarius, midday on May 4th. If you want some happy news with this, it will mark the end of the Mars Pluto opposition that has plagued us for months.  It will also, eventually, move the planet off the much maligned 3rd degree (see below).

I also feel retrograde periods suit the yin energy of Pluto. You may fall back into deep reflection. Or if this transit is aggravated for you, once you’re in the pain, you may as well mine it for everything you can get.

But far and away, the biggest benefit of the retrograde, is it that the planet will trine Uranus in Gemini; with both planets stationing and exceedingly powerful.

If you’re wanting change on a deep level, this is the time.  I can’t help but be excited, though I know this could be very dark.

That’s a risk you take, being alive in this world.  Ultimately it’s unpredictable (squared), due to the Uranus aspect and Pluto’s placement in Uranus-ruled Aquarius.  This does seem to gave to do with technology, but free thinking, free speech and genius, in general is part of this as well.

Pluto Stations at 3 Degrees Aquarius – Twice – Gird Your Loins!

Pluto will station in my first house. I feel personally empowered, for sure. I’m excited about the liberating energy (Uranus) on it’s way.

Note I am not at all worried about sudden, unexpected (Uranus) death (Pluto). Don’t let astrology jack you up in that way.
