Libra Monthly Horoscope

How deep is your love? Pluto turns retrograde May 4

Dare to be more vulnerable in the pursuit of love, Libra. Starting May 4, probing Pluto backspins retrograde through Aquarius and your romance house, taking love to a more profound level. Got baggage? Pluto’s heel turn, which lasts until October 13, can help you get down to the core of what’s causing it.

Retrogrades can bring back people and unresolved issues from the past. While shadowy Pluto is in reverse, an ex could resurface. More than anything, this is an opportunity to look at yourself and the hidden dynamics at play. Is this love…or a trauma bond that’s reflecting an unhealed pattern from your past? Yes, those ARE the types of questions you could be asking yourself over the next few months. Psychological Pluto’s retrograde could reveal where you may be projecting onto other people or shirking responsibility for your own emotions.

Warning: possessive feelings could rise to the surface and send you into rocky waters. You might have a change of heart for a paramour who once captivated you. Harness this energy to really learn how to love others—the good, the bad and the ugly. Be compassionate with yourself as you delve into those spaces. Likely you were never conscious of some of your own patterns and motives until now, so don’t expect yourself to change overnight.

If it makes you feel better, you have plenty of time. This long Pluto in Aquarius cycle (that began in November 2024 and lasts until January 2044!) is here to transform your approach to relationships at the most fundamental level. Your inner growth could lead you to a serious soulmate, someone who embraces all of you, including your history and your struggles.
