Pluto in Capricorn (2008 – 2023/24) will make its first retrograde cycle entirely in the sign of Capricorn from April 4 through September 11, 2009, as it reverses from 3/4 degrees to 0/1 degree.  This will be the first of 14 Pluto retrograde cycles within Capricorn, signifying our soul’s need for a complete overhaul of our relationships to money, resources, career, self-responsibility, self-determination, parenting and social maturation.  This first retrograde cycle will show us where things are not working out in our life along these Capricorn archetypes, and the opportunities for evolution to the depth of our soul.

The purpose of planetary retrograde cycles is to review the past and let it go where necessary.  This creates a void in which new ideas, desires, beliefs and actions can come in – if – we do not fill it up with recycling the old for security reasons.  Planetary retrogrades are opportunities to rebel.  It takes courage to exercise the will and desire nature to move forward into an unknown future.  Enter Pluto at its stationary points – retrograde and direct – and deep unconscious beliefs and desires of the soul come to the surface, getting our attention, forcing their way into our consciousness.

When Pluto makes its annual stationary point to reverse geocentric direction for five months, it is easier to recognize those desires of the soul which are not working anymore.  We may have exhausted the desire and yet it feels so comfortable that we keep repeating old patterns.  We may feel frustrated by desires we cannot as yet seem to manifest, or control, in our lives.  We experience soul dissatisfaction in the gazillion ways human consciousness can create it.  The themes will run along inner and outer confrontations that clarify our soul’s deepest desires.  Which desires are ready for release, as a result of our having exhausted a separating desire?  Which new desires are emerging within us, at once silent as a whisper and screaming in our face?

Pluto retrograde through the zodiacal signs shows us the collective soul desires that are up for review and relative to each culture, society and country.  Pluto retrograde on the broadest collective levels serves to evolve human consciousness as a species.  We are noticing these collective trends on the most personal levels through the Capricorn themes of monetary policies and fiscal self-responsibilities.  We are amidst  natural contraction cycles within which we must ask ourselves to re-prioritize, to formulate new value references which effectively square any adopted value systems with our actual resource usage.
