Today Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius Active Pluto goes retrograde in Aquarius, and this one runs deep. This transit lasts several months and brings up old power dynamics, both in your personal life and in the world around you. Buried fears, control patterns, and unresolved conflicts push their way to the surface. It is not always comfortable, but it is an incredibly important phase for honest self-reflection. Face whatever comes up and consciously let go of what is holding you back. May 4 – Oct 13 · 62 days remaining Saturn Retrograde in Aries Active Saturn goes retrograde in Aries, and it feels like someone just pulled the parking brake. Projects stall, progress slows down, and decisions from recent months come under review. But do not worry, this is not a setback. It is a phase where you mature internally and learn to manage your energy more wisely. Review your goals and ask yourself honestly whether the path you are on is truly yours. What proves itself now will hold up for the long run. Jul 13 – Nov 28 · 108 days remaining Neptune Retrograde Active Neptune goes retrograde, as it does every year for several months. During this time the fog lifts, and things you may have been idealizing show themselves in a more sober light. People or situations where you have been fooling yourself become clearer now. This is a perfect phase for meditation, dream work, or creative writing. Welcome the new clarity and honestly check what in your life stands on real ground and what is based on wishful thinking.
