Pause the move. Rework the pattern. Then proceed properly.
Alright divines… we had a strong start coming into May with the Scorpio Full Moon and followed by Mercury Enters Taurus right after it. It was about transformation and thinking about your stability.
And this week isn’t about moving forward the way you thought you would.
Because Pluto has officially gone retrograde in Aquarius — that transformation comes to a halt and this is where everything starts to turn inward.
Not in a subtle way. Not in a “you might feel it” kind of way.
This is the kind of shift where what you thought you had control over… what you thought you had already worked through… starts to come back up, but from a different angle.
Aquarius energy is detached, observant, and future-focused. It doesn’t sit in emotion the way other signs do. It steps back, it looks at the bigger picture, and it asks you to see things for what they actually are — not what you’ve been telling yourself.
So when Pluto — the planet of power, control, transformation, and everything beneath the surface — goes retrograde here?
This is where the focus shifts from what’s happening externally… to what’s really going on internally. What needs to be reevaluated and adjusted.
And just as that begins, we move into the Last Quarter Moon in Aquarius.
This is not a beginning phase. This is not where things start.
This is where things get cleared.
Where decisions need to be made about what stays… and what needs to be released before you move into the next cycle.
The Last Quarter Moon brings pressure, but not for the sake of it.
It brings clarity through tension.
It shows you what isn’t working anymore, what feels out of alignment, and what you’ve been holding onto simply because it’s familiar — not because it still fits where you’re going.
So if things feel like they’re slowing down, looping back, or forcing you to revisit something you thought was already done…
That’s not a delay.
That’s the energy doing exactly what it’s meant to do.
Stop c**k-blocking yourself and release that sh*t.
Now let’s get to the tea of these cosmic energy shifts
Now about Pluto moonwalking into Aquarius and the shifts…
♇♒️ Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius – 6th May 2026
Pluto is officially moonwalking in Aquarius… and this is where the power shift starts happening behind the scenes. Also, this is going to be a slow and long moonwalk that will go on for a few months… ending in October.
This isn’t about pushing forward. It’s about pausing to see clearly what’s been running beneath the surface — patterns, control, and the way you’ve been showing up.
Aquarius doesn’t get caught in emotion. It steps back, observes, and sees the bigger picture.
So what Pluto is doing here is forcing you to:
👉 Rethink where your power actually sits
👉 Reevaluate patterns you thought were already handled
👉 Adjust how you move moving forward
👉Detach from what you’ve been emotionally tied to, so you can see it properly
This is where you stop reacting… and start observing.
Where you stop trying to control everything externally…
and start asking yourself what actually needs to shift internally.
This is a pause… but not for nothing.
It’s so the transformation you’re going through isn’t rushed — it’s reworked and done right
🌗 Last Quarter Moon in Aquarius – 9th May 2026
This is where things start getting cut.
The Last Quarter Moon isn’t about starting anything new. It’s about clearing out what’s already been shown to you — especially after everything Pluto just brought to the surface.
Aquarius energy doesn’t hold on for emotional reasons. It steps back, looks at the situation objectively, and decides what actually makes sense moving forward.
So this is where you’re being asked to:
👉 Release what no longer aligns with where you’re going
👉 Detach from what you’ve been holding onto out of habit, not purpose
👉 See clearly without letting emotions cloud your judgment
👉 Make the call on what stays and what needs to go
This phase can feel uncomfortable because it forces a decision.
But it’s not here to confuse you.
It’s here to clear space — so you’re not carrying unnecessary weight into the next cycle.
What This Reversal Actually Looks Like…
This doesn’t play out loudly.
It shows up in the way things start to slow down, shift direction, and feel different.
Not because nothing is happening…
but because everything is being reworked and cleared at the same time.
You can expect:
- Situations to loop back — conversations, dynamics, or patterns you thought were done may come back for a proper review
- A pause in momentum — things may not move forward the way you expected, forcing you to reassess instead of push
- Clear detachment — you’ll start seeing things more objectively, without the emotional attachment you had before
- Decisions you can’t avoid — what stays and what goes becomes very obvious, even if it’s uncomfortable
- Less tolerance for misalignment — what doesn’t fit will feel harder to hold onto
This isn’t confusion.
This is clarity being forced through a slowdown and a release.
Things are being revisited so they can be adjusted properly… or cleared out completely before you move forward again.
Get It Right This Time… Or Stay Stuck
This is the part where you either move differently… or repeat the same cycle all over again.
Because now you’ve seen it. You’ve felt the shift. You know what’s not working anymore.
Pluto retrograde is making you rethink it.
The Last Quarter Moon is asking you to clear it out.
So what you do here matters.
✨ Do’s
✨ Take a step back before reacting — observe first, then move
✨ Be honest about what’s not working — no sugarcoating it
✨ Make decisions from clarity, not emotion
✨ Let go of what you already know doesn’t fit
✨ Adjust your approach instead of forcing the same outcome
🚫 Don’ts
🚫 Don’t rush to fix or control everything
🚫 Don’t ignore what’s clearly being shown to you
🚫 Don’t hold on just because it’s familiar
🚫 Don’t react emotionally just to feel in control
🚫 Don’t repeat the same pattern and expect a different result
This isn’t about moving aimlessly… or staying stuck because fear and doubt are in the way.
It’s about doing it properly this time with clarity and confidence.
Because if you don’t clear it now… you’ll carry it forward and deal with it again later.

☕ The Cosmic Tea Spirit Spilled
Alright Divines! The Universe had spilled the tea on the upcoming cosmic shifts.
Now we know Pluto is about to do the moonwalk in Aquarius, and the Last Quarter Moon in Aquarius is asking us to check ourselves… do a little spring cleaning so we can move forward with assurance.
So obviously somethings may be coming back up during this time — especially the ones you may have avoided. But this is necessary.
It’s coming back so you can see it differently, handle it differently… and most importantly, decide what your next moves.
With that being said… it’s Spirit’s turn to spill the tea in a collective reading.
So get comfortable.
Refill your cup… or switch your beverage if you need something stronger 🍸
And keep in mind, this is a collective reading.
So only take what resonates, and leave what doesn’t for someone else.
Let’s go…..
General Collective Reading
Dearest Divine Collective,
Your reading this week begins with three powerful messages coming through:
In God’s Hands – My trust in life is implicit. God’s greater knowing and greatest love guide my heart and my choices. My faith is steady, and I remain true co my light. Everything unfolds according to God’s will.
Positive Action – I focus on the beauty in me, and I find silence. live and honour the present by doing what I can do now. What I cannot change, I let go of and entrust to God.
Courage – I am stronger than fear and bigger than doubt. I am light, and I remain light. I trust in God and stand tall before the tests of life. I grow and become wiser through every challenge. I am a being of new life.
And under the deck…
Transformation – I am constantly evolving. I improve inwardly by working on my weaknesses and refining my strengths. Life ensures I’m presented with situations that will help me learn and grow. I am aware of my progress and open my wings to the light.
What’s coming through here is a period of transformation where you’re being called to go inward, to work through what needs to be worked on and refine what needs to be refined.
You’re not going through this alone. Trust that the divine, the universe, whatever you believe in, is supporting you through this process.
Have courage and trust that everything is unfolding as it should. But at the same time, this isn’t about sitting back and waiting. It requires you to do the inner work and take positive, intentional action towards what you’re trying to build.
This is about moving with intention, not acting impulsively.
Now, let’s go deeper and clarify each energy. ✨
This week isn’t about rushing… it’s about realignment.”
Clarifying the Energies
In God’s Hands clarified by :
🎴The Devil
🎴9 of Swords
🎴10 of Swords
🎴2 of Swords (Under the Deck)
The Devil
The Devil, Nine of Swords, and Ten of Wands show that what you’re being asked to surrender isn’t small… it’s something that has had a strong hold on you. And this is showing up as what you’ve been dealing with internally which may have become a burden for you.
The Devil points to attachments, patterns, or situations that feels heavy, consuming, or hard to release. This can be fear, control, overthinking, or even a cycle you know you’ve outgrown but haven’t fully let go of yet.
Nine of Swords
The Nine of Swords takes it deeper, showing anxiety, stress, and mental exhaustion. This is the kind of energy where your mind doesn’t switch off, where you’re replaying situations in your head, worrying about outcomes, and carrying thoughts that weigh on you more than they should.
With the Devil and Nine of Swords showing up together, this isn’t just a passing thought. This is something that has been sitting with you, looping, and creating pressure internally. It’s a really heavy energy.
Ten of Wands
Then comes in with the Ten of Wands, showing burden and overwhelm. This is carrying too much for too long, feeling like everything is on you, and struggling to put it down or fully release.
This is where Spirit is showing that you’ve been trying to manage, control, or carry everything on your own, even when it’s been exhausting you.
Two of Swords (Under the Deck)
Under the deck, the Two of Swords shows avoidance and indecision. This is knowing that something needs to be faced or released, but you’re holding back, staying in between, or not wanting to fully confront it yet.
Altogether, this clarifies that being “In God’s Hands” is about releasing and surrendering control over what has been weighing on you mentally and emotionally. It’s about letting go of the need to hold everything together on your own, and trusting that not everything needs to be carried or figured out by you. Help is available to you and all you need to do is ask.
Positive Actions clarified by :
🎴The Star
🎴The Hermit
🎴9 of Wands (Reversed)
The Star
The Star, The Hermit, and the Nine of Wands in reverse show that the actions you’re being guided to take aren’t loud or rushed… they’re led by healing, hope, and inner alignment.
The Star speaks of renewal, faith, and quiet healing. This is you reconnecting back to yourself, holding onto hope even when things haven’t fully made sense yet, and trusting that things can get better.
The Hermit
The Hermit takes it deeper, showing a need to go inward for clarity and truth. This is stepping back and stepping within, to reflect, and giving yourself the space to understand what you truly want and what direction feels right for you.
What’s standing out here to me, is that both The Star and The Hermit in this deck are carrying a lamp. This is about being guided. Even in moments of solitude or uncertainty, there is still a sense of direction, a quiet knowing that you are being led exactly where you need to go.
Nine of Wands (Reversed)
Then comes in with the Nine of Wands in reverse, showing a release of defensiveness and exhaustion. This is you letting your guard down, no longer feeling like you have to constantly protect yourself or stay in survival mode.
This is the shift from holding everything up on your own… to allowing yourself to be guided and move forward without carrying the same weight from the past.
Altogether, this clarifies that positive action right now isn’t about forcing movement. It’s about trusting your inner guidance, allowing healing to lead the way, and releasing the need to stay guarded. You are being guided step by step, even if you’re not able to see it yet.
Courage clarified by :
🎴Page of Wands
🎴9 of Pentacles
🎴The Sun
Page of Wands
The Page of Wands, Nine of Pentacles, and The Sun show that this courage isn’t about something big and dramatic… it starts with a small step.
The Page of Wands speaks of taking initiative, reaching out, or making a move even if it feels uncertain. This is that first spark of action, where someone decides to step forward instead of staying in hesitation.
Nine of Pentacles
The Nine of Pentacles is about independence, self-worth, and stepping into your own power. This is someone (you) who has built themselves up, who knows their value, and is no longer acting from lack or insecurity.
This is someone showing up as whole, grounded, and secure within themselves.
The Sun
Then we’ve got The Sun, bringing clarity, confidence, and new beginnings. This is no longer hidden or unsure energy. This is truth being expressed, actions being seen, and things moving in a more direct and positive way.
Altogether, this clarifies that courage here is about you taking that first step forward from a place of confidence and self-worth. It may start small, but it’s genuine, intentional, and leads towards something more open, clear, and aligned.
🔮 What’s the Advice for the Collective?
🎴5 of Cups
🎴4 of Cups
🎴Queen of Wands
🎴Death
Five of Cups
The Five of Cups, Four of Cups, Queen of Wands, and Death show that the advice here begins with acknowledging what has already been felt… but not staying there.
The Five of Cups is seen as disappointment, regret, and focusing on what didn’t go the way you expected. This is recognising what hurt, what didn’t work, and what has already passed.
Four of Cups
The Four of Cups goes deeper, showing emotional withdrawal and detachment. This is pulling back, feeling disconnected, or even becoming uninterested because of what has already been experienced.
Together with the Five of Cups, this shows a tendency to stay focused on the past or to close yourself off because of it.
Queen of Wands
Then comes in the Queen of Wands, shifting the energy. This is confidence, self-belief, and stepping back into your power. This is choosing yourself again, knowing your worth, and not allowing past emotions to define how you move forward.
This is you reclaiming your energy.
Death
And finally Death, the rebirth. This is the ending and the transformation. This is fully releasing what no longer serves you so something new can begin.
This isn’t a partial shift. This is a complete change in how you see, feel, and move.
Altogether, this advice is about not staying stuck in disappointment or emotional withdrawal. It’s about recognising what has happened, but choosing to step back into your power and fully release the past so you can move forward differently.
🌙✨ Closing Message
“Asking for help is how I return to CONNECTION.”
This is a reminder that you’re not meant to go through everything on your own.
That connection that’s mentioned here is connection with yourself, it’s about alignment.
After everything that has come up, the transformation, the inner work, the emotional weight… this message is guiding you to open up instead of closing off.
Connection doesn’t come from carrying everything silently.
It comes from allowing yourself to be seen, supported, and understood.
Whether it’s reaching out, speaking honestly, or simply allowing others to be there for you… this is how you reconnect, not just with others, but with yourself as well.

💫 The Cosmic Tea Has Been Spilled
And there we have it, another cosmic tea has been spilled! This week’s energy has brought things back around for a reason. ☕️✨
What may have felt like a pause… a slowdown… or even a step back…
wasn’t here to throw you off.
It’s here to make you look again.
Not from the same place.
But with a different understanding.
Because what’s been coming up now isn’t new.
It’s something that needed to be seen without the pressure to react…
without the need to control…
and without carrying everything on your own.
And that’s where Spirit stepped in.
Not to rush you forward. Not to force a decision.
But to shift you out of the way you’ve been handling things…
so you can move from a place that actually feels right this time.
You’ve felt where the weight has been.
You’ve seen what’s been sitting underneath.
Now it’s about what you do with it.
So take what resonates.
Move how you need to move.
But don’t go back to holding everything by yourself or trying to manage what was never yours to control in the first place.
Because now that it’s been brought back to you, you’re being given the chance to handle it differently. ✨
⸻
☕What Tea Did These Energies Serve You?
As this week unfolds, notice what’s being revisited, not to pull you back… but to show you how you’ve been handling it.
The pauses, the delays, the moments where things didn’t move the way you expected — they’re not random.
They’re pointing at where your approach needs to change and looked at.
Not everything needs a reaction straight away.
Some things are being placed in front of you so you can respond with intention, not habit.
And you’ll feel it.
That moment where you realise:
“I’ve been here before… but I don’t want to handle it the same way again.”
That’s the shift.
So when it comes up, because it will —pay attention to how you move this time.
Because that’s what decides whether this closes out…
or stay stuck
