Pluto Rx and Secrets Revealed
On May 2nd, Pluto will begin its months-long retrograde in Aquarius. Pluto is a powerful symbol in astrology, serving as a catalyst to transformation (literal and symbolic death and the subsequent rebirth). When Pluto makes big shifts, our experience of Pluto is felt in pronounced ways. We become extra sensitive, perceptive, spongey, and aware of something grabbing our attention.
Furthest from the sun, Pluto’s orbit is slow and deliberate. Pluto is where we harbor desires and truths that, when discussed openly with others or confronted within, can conjure feelings of shame, guilt, and avoidance. How Pluto exposes truth can take on different personas, from the investigative journalist who is hellbent on justice, or the trashy celebrity expose that sells private experiences for fast cash. Either way, truth is being brought to the surface.
At the heart of this retrograde is a power struggle between the old and new worlds; one is trying to maintain power while the other hopes to claim it.
In Aquarius, Pluto will force us to look at themes with big tech (especially social media and surveillance) and the ways in which is does or does not support the masses. We see early indicators of a Pluto Rx story unfolding with Congress’ efforts to ban TikTok leading into an election season in the United States. Users insist there is more objective and researched information that keeps them informed (the investigative journalist) while politicians cite security concerns (when is surveillance acceptable and when is it not?).
How we grapple with these current events brings us back to our own Pluto placement in the birth chart. Because Pluto moves so slowly, cohorts of souls come in with the same Pluto placement. Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, Gen Z, and Alpha mostly share the same Pluto placement! Each generation has its own agenda, deeply embedded soul missions and secrets longing to be healed and understood. This provides even more insights into how the Pluto transits of today will activate our own soul’s calls for growth. This is discussed in great detail in the latest video for Digital Members. Watch a quick excerpt about the Pluto in Leo generation below.
Within collective and individual quests of truth, the key with Pluto is to maintain a healthy suspicion at all times. The truth is exposed in layers, and each layer will showcase a deeper entanglement of agendas, interests, and corruption. Who’s really behind a potential ban and why? It’s not as obvious as some are making it out to be.
