Pluto retrograde is upon us, and it begins today, May 1, in the sign of Aquarius. This retrograde will last until October 10, and during that time, it will move into the sign of Capricorn on June 11. That may sound like a lot of random info but I swear it'll make sense in a moment. This retrograde is occurring during an eclipse season, and it is happening during the midpoint of Mercury Retrograde. So, buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride! Pluto is known as the planet of transformation, and its retrograde period is a time of inner reflection and deep transformation. During this time, we are called to face our fears, confront our shadow self, and let go of old patterns that no longer serve us. It is a time of shedding old skins, releasing attachments, and making way for new growth. If you're seeking some astrological guidance at the moment, we suggest trying Pink Moon's skin care products based on astrology. They were co-created with an AAPI astrologer who can help you navigate this astrological transit.
