On Tuesday April April 27th Pluto Begins his annual Retrograde in the sign of Capricorn. He will remain in retrograde through to October 6th.
As lord of the Underworld, it is no surprise that Pluto spends more of the year in a retrograde motion, than direct. Annually, Pluto is retrograde 230 days out of the year. In Astrology, the period of retrograde is associated with a time of reflection.

Transformation and Power are the key phrases of distant Pluto. During Pluto's Retrograde Explore your inner underworld and the psyche of your shadow. Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio and those with Scorpio placements may feel the pull of Pluto more than others.

The Following Crystals can aid in tapping into Pluto's Transformative Power.
Black Tourmaline
In the darkness transformation happens, the light is absorbed into the black. Black Tourmaline is an ally for facing shadow energies.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge. — Carl Jung, Aion (1951)
All Tourmaline has an amazing ability to be piezoelectric, meaning it generates an electrical charge when under pressure. Metaphysically, this means that Black Tourmaline, also called Schorl, can dissipate the build up of stress and negativity through the power of transformation.

Geode
Geodes are a hollow rock that contains a secret within. When cracked open it will reveal the crystal inside. It could be a variety of quartz crystals like Amethyst or Citrine, or sometimes the silky layers of an Agate. The power is in the mystery and potential.
Stand before a mirror, notice this version of yourself, reflected back. Two halves, both real, one reflected, the other flesh and blood.
One of Geode’s great gifts is the unknown interior of an un-cracked stone. It could be filled with something common, like quartz, or it could be filled with a rare treasure, like opal. This is a metaphor for your own untapped potential. Connect to Pluto through the possibilities locked within.
