Your Weekly Astrology @anamariapinedacom
The week begins with Pluto, the planet of power, death, transformation and rebirth, retrograde. It is the first time we will experience Pluto in Aquarius retrograde in our lifetime! Pluto is awakening our Soul at an individual level and at a social level. Somewhere in our lives we are asked to take our power back. If you are a Fixed Sign (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) or have any placements in your Natal chart in those signs, you are feeling these energies this week!
Pluto entered Aquarius on January 20, 2024, and will be there until March 8, 2043. The last time Pluto was in Aquarius was between 1778 and 1798, a period marked by the American Civil War, technological breakthroughs and social resistance to established powers in other parts of the world. Pluto teaches us about power. About our own power. Notice what you are giving your power to. Notice what takes your power away and what brings it back. Notice your connection to your Soul. Pluto awakes our power by connecting us to our Soul.
Somewhere in your life you are awaken to your power. Somewhere in your life your Soul is asking you to pay attention. Notice where you need to course correct. Notice where you place your energy, your mind and your heart. Pluto is the planet of death and rebirth. What has died? What is being reborn? What is being transformed? From now until October 13th, we are invited by the retrograde period to reflect on our past and present. Notice where you are, where we have been, and where we are going. What needs to change? Time to look within for clarity and direction. Retrogrades provide us with an opportunity to look within for answers. Journal, meditate, go for a walk or simply sit still and listen. Answers are coming loud and clear, just pay attention and listen within. Pluto is awakening something powerful within you and in your life.
