There's a strange energy lately.

I don't even know if strange is the right word.

It just feels like something is shifting underneath the surface.

I've been hearing it in conversations and seeing it online as I scroll or honestly just feeling it in myself,

noticing it in the people around me.

People seem tired of the noise, tired of constantly consuming, tired of performing, tired of trying to optimize every part of themselves into some polished, hyperproductive version of a human being.

And at the same time, I think people are craving depth again, real conversations, real connection, peace,

meaning, slower mornings, less performance, more authenticity.

It feels like a lot of people are reevaluating their lives right now, their relationships

and friendships, careers, priorities, even their identities. And astrologically, we actually are in a major transition period.

There are several huge long-term planetary shifts happening right now. They seem to be pushing people toward something more

honest, less curated, less performative, more embodied, more real. So today I want to talk about

the energy of this current portal we're moving through and why so many people feel like old versions of themselves no longer fit.

Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, the death of the persona.

One of the biggest transits happening right now, Pluto began this rare retrograde in Aquarius on May 6th and will last through October 15th,

2026. And Pluto energy is deep. Pluto rules transformation, shadow work, power, destruction,

rebirth. It exposes what's been buried beneath the surface. Aquarius rules society and technology,

the collective social systems, the internet, innovation, identity within groups. So collectively,

this transit feels like a reckoning with performance. I genuinely think we are moving out of an era where people could survive by simply

appearing aligned and spiritual, successful, healed, evolved, or even productive, whatever

the identity was.

People now can feel authenticity.
