There is only one planet retrograde in May, PLUTO.

On May 6th, Pluto enters retrograde at 5 degrees Aquarius. It stops October 16th at 3 degrees Aquarius and moves forward again. During the time of any retrograde, it is important to slow down and review the progress made that relates the energy of the retrograde planet. In this case, Pluto. It rules transformation, death, rebirth. It is a powerful energy for change. When it is weaker (retrograde), there is an opportunity to defend or stand by earlier decisions. In Aquarius, the spotlight will be on the future, space/explorations, electricity, discoveries/inventions, humans/aliens and freedom.

Pluto – May 6 – October 16
Pluto will retrograde at 5 degrees Aquarius backing up to 3 degrees before moving forward again. It is time to review those things related to major transformation, death, and rebirth. Transformations can come about due to wars, disasters, losses of all kinds like your job or home. In Aquarius, these transformations might relate to airplanes, space travel, aliens, inventions, technology, etc. On a personal note, you may be working on a relationship or changing “chairs” at work or perhaps changing your travel plans. Now is the time to revisit those things and make appropriate adjustments. You have time as this window for review lasts until October!
