Mercury Retrograde is Finally Over!
Feeling overwhelmed by emotions along with a string of miscommunications lately? You can partially thank Mercury Retrograde.
We can never fully blame the planets for everything that happens to us, but theres no doubt that they effect us to a certain degree. Whether you follow Astrology or not, its no secret that the Moon is what creates the waves in the Ocean with its gravitational pull that generates something called the tidal force.
As humans we are made of 60% water. Putting 2+2 together- The Moon and its cycles effect us too!
This doesn’t just go for the Moon but for ALL planets around us, including Mercury. We’re all so beautifully interconnected as none of us are made of solid mass, we interweave our vibrational auras like water in the ocean. Every piece of us separate, making all of us whole.
What actually happens during Mercury Retrograde?!
Mercury is the planet that majorly rules Communication and when it goes into retrograde, the planet appears to move in backward direction. A lot of people may feel its effects in the form of drama in their relationships, miscommunications or lack of, and troubles with technology.
This retrograde was the last one of 2021 starting on September 27 lasting through October 18. For a lot of us, this retrograde in Libra has been turning everything upside down, sideways and through loops.
Now that its finally over, it is a great time to mend what was cracked or broken during the retrograde, and move on with clarity and new lessons. I’m sure most of us felt as though we went through a messy crash course of some kind, learning and expanding at an exhilarated rate leaving us feeling a bit hungover.
How to prepare for the next one?
Although it’s hard in the intensity of the moment, make an effort to;
Remember to separate your feelings from what is happening to objectively observe and not absorb.
Speak your truth and don’t let your ego take over.
Don’t be reactionary, stop and take some time before reacting out of emotion.
Call a friend… or all your friends!
Have compassion for others that may not be able to get their points across as intended since they too are being affected. Read between the lines of their words.
Most importantly, DON’T take anything too personally.
This too shall pass, hunker down and ride the the storm for its beautiful chaos that essentially deepens our understanding of self.
