Take time to look at the bigger picture in your life and also how you priorities and values can serve others and noble causes.

Pluto in Capricorn Stationed Retrograde

Pluto stationed retrograde in Capricorn on April 27, 2021 and will remain so until to October 6, 2021. Pluto is the planet of life, death re-birthing and tramsformations of all types. As it retrogrades each year for a few months, it allows us to employ history as our teacher. Often times in history, that which is nearly forgotten, reveal themselves.
