Pluto Retrograde 2020: What You Need to Know
/
Pluto Retrograde Overview
On April 25, 2020, at 2:54 PM EST, the planet of death, rebirth, and subconscious transformation will station retrograde at 24° Capricorn.
Every year Pluto stations retrograde, so this cosmic event is not uncommon. When Pluto stations retrograde, you are encouraged to slow down and reflect on your subconscious programming and internal behaviors.
In 2020, this annual transit highlights karmic wounds and generational healing. It represents the internal evaluation of self-realization through family, home as the physical body, and spiritual and material power.
Over the next 160 days, you are rebuilding your inner world. Pluto’s retrograde position encourages you to sit quietly with your self-destructive patterns, and sort through them honestly free of judgement.
With this retrograde starting at 24° Capricorn, we are yet again reactivating the energies of the Jupiter and Pluto conjunction that occurred on April 4. During this period, the universe is inviting you to release the blockages that capture you from seeking your true potential.
Regenerative Pluto in mature Capricorn is exposing and breaking down the habits that make you feel small, give your power away, and attach to material possessions instead of living in pure confidence and unconditional love.
Ask yourself, what are my most prevalent subconscious triggers? What financial concerns am I avoiding? What responsibilities do I delay or victimize? Am I giving my power away?
If you don’t know the answer to these questions, write them down on a piece of paper and seal it. Place the piece of paper under your pillow for at least six days.
On the sixth day, take out the piece of paper. Journal whatever comes to mind. This is a channeled message from your guides.
Note: I’ve found that many receive insights into their question much sooner than the six days. So listen to your intuition and shape the suggested practice as you feel called.
With Saturn (who is currently in Aquarius until July 1) in such proximity to Pluto, much of this inner focus comes from a curiosity to explore your higher purpose.
As a result, you may feel a strong call to go deeper into your history. If you’ve ever wanted to do genetic testing to know where you come from, what energies and patterns run in your bloodline, this is the time to do it. You may be specially called to explore the heritage of your father.
With Pluto ruling the underworld, I’ve found that the spirit realms are most active during the annual retrograde season. So many of you may receive frequent visits from your dead.
It’s important to remember that Pluto absorbs the willpower (action) energy of Mars and transcends it to a higher dimension. Where Mars channels the impulses of your Sun and Moon and acts them out, Pluto is the motive behind the Sun.
So instead of focusing on change, focus on the reason behind the changes.
It may be helpful to keep a journal throughout the retrograde season. If you cannot commit to journaling every day, check-in at least once a week.
By doing this, you can keep a clear record of your subconscious thoughts. This will make the integration process easier once Pluto is stationary for 16 days.
Note: With Cancer being Capricorn’s polar (opposite sign). Family and emotional stability are at the core of this transit.
The universe is encouraging you to look beyond your “moodiness.” What makes you ebb and flow? What causes the sudden shift of emotion?
