🪐 Mercury Retrograde




It happens 3-4 times per year, but is it real? 

Does this planet's movements in the Heavens really impact us down on Earth? 

The short answer is yes...sort of! 

The impact is based on our approach. 💡

Mercury Retrograde is our natural time of slowing down. 

Mercury is our planet of communication, commerce, and travel. 

During mercury retrograde the speed of Mercury's movement slows down (relative to Earth). Likewise, we are intended to slow down our communications, commerce, and travel. 

It sounds easy, right? It certainly can be if we willingly choose to slow down, pause, and reflect before sailing ahead after the three-week rest. 

If you match the speed of Mercury, Mercury Retrograde can transform into a beautiful and mindful time of rest, recovery, and replenishment...a natural period of self care that comes around every few months. 

The problems happen when we try to maintain a breakneck speed, becoming out of sync with the energies of the moment. It's like trying to drive 70 miles-per-hour on a 25- mile-an-hour street! Accidents happen when we move too fast.  

Mercury Retrograde is about flowing with what is happening. Adapting; revising our plans. Embracing a gentler, quieter, slower approach. It can be a confusing time, but it can be a beautiful time too. 

Humans were never meant to live a life of 24/7 activities and scrolling. 

To thrive in body and mind, we need times of quiet and rest. Mercury Retrograde periods are those times...if we let them be.
