Pluto is an outer planet (aka, a long way away) in our solar system. Ruling over Scorpio, Pluto represents power, rebirth and transformation. Pluto impacts the stars dramatically and is considered to have an effect on things such as climate change, societal unrest and governmental shifts.
From 4th May until 13th October 2025, it goes into retrograde, which gives us some much-needed respite. This breather allows us to catch up emotionally, adjust to ‘new normals’, reflect and figure out how we want to move forward. Let the tarot guide you!
Aries - The Magician
During a Pluto retrograde, you can gather your intellect and insights and use your brave spirit to think of new ways to respond to the big issues we face. Activist? Inventor? Campaigner? Maybe all three. You are a natural leader and pioneer. Invest your energy into instigating positive progress.
Taurus - Two of Cups
Some of your closest relationships have received incoming criticism this year and you need to take stock, assess the extent and nature of the damage, then consider what repairs can be made. You take good care of your inner circle. This is a phase of healing and rebuilding those intimate, authentic bonds.
Gemini - Ace of Wands
Geminis are experts at absorbing, processing and disseminating complex news, and turning it into something new and positive. This is your Pluto retrograde homework. Consider all you’ve learned about power this year and what lessons you could take on board in order to activate a new phase of change for yourself.
Cancer - Judgement
You’re ready for a reckoning:looking in the mirror and noticing changes, both inside and out. These changes aren’t visible from one day to the next but, thinking back to a year ago, you appreciate the difference. So, who are you now? What does this 2.0 version think, feel and want? Take time to get to know yourself again.

Leo - King of Wands
Things feel a little more settled, so you can stop fire-fighting and get back to your own agenda. Use this retrograde to reset your purpose, your mission, your goals and ambitions. It helps you to have a focus. Don’t drift or be ‘done to’ by others. Take time to set new goals that inspire you.
Virgo - Page of Cups
Being an adult is hard. Maybe you yearn for the era of childhood when other people took responsibility and knew what had to be done. Now you have to provide the answers rather than just asking the questions. Virgo, let yourself return to a more peaceful time in your self-care rituals. xThink: nurture, rest and play.
Libra - Ace of Cups
Reflecting on all of the changes in the world makes you think about what you want to bring to life and draw into reality. Is it family, wealth, art, service, or creativity? What do you want to create and give to the world? What will your legacy be? This is your retrograde thinking material, Libra.
Scorpio - The Hermit
Analysis is one of your hobbies, and the Pluto retrograde leaves you with a lot to think about. Start a solo project of meditation, research and analysis on the topics that have fascinated you recently. Get mentally embroiled in things, which provoke you to decide how you can use them – or release them – positively.
Sagittarius - Knight of Pentacles
You’re set on creating stability and security in your own home, career, finances and family. That’s what matters to you, after all you’ve seen and experienced this last year. You’re now being given the insight and motivation to make the plans that’ll help you achieve this goal in the coming months.
Capricorn - The Star
The Star has ‘dream come true’ energy, inviting you to use the Pluto retrograde respite to make a wish and manifest it into your realm. You have until October to do it! What will it be? The Star always asks you to think big; the higher you aim, the better the outcome. Capricorn, you work so hard, so take a reward.
Aquarius - Ace of Swords
Pluto is moving into your sign, which makes you feel aligned with the big societal and technology advances coming. Be at the forefront of things! Live on the cutting edge of our world in the coming months, because you have the foresight and courage to explain things to others. This is your time to rise.
Pisces - The Hierophant
The best thing you can do fora ‘future you’ right now, Pisces, is find a mentor or therapist to talk to, bounce ideas off, share fears and anxieties, and to get wisdom and guidance from. You area deep and empathetic thinker and you absorb everything. You need to offload someplace safe and strong.
