Good day beautiful people.
It’s been a bug week, energy wise, with the full supermoon, high solar activity, M and X-class flairs, CEMs; what next? Mercury goes retrograde on 9th of November, lasting until Christmas time.
How to cope with mercury in retrograde.
When the planet mercury goes retrograde, it is essentially going east to west rather than west to east: it really changes the energy by reversing everything, almost like giving us time to process what we've been experiencing before moving on, moving forward; it gives us a moment to catch our breath, so it's not all bad! I have leared to really enjoy the slowdown this bring, taking time to retrospect and then get ready to go again as Mercury moves forward.
I like to remind people that when mercury is retrograding, do all the "re" words: relax, reflect, retrospect, re-visit, reset, Reiki, rewind, replenish, refresh, re-do, repair, repeat, redesign, reflexology; anything that is proceeded by 're' seems to be in good order.
Can you think of other 're' words that apply to you? It's maybe what we should be doing just now. Here is a quick guide on how to survive mercury in retrograde:
If plans change, look at what's on the table for you just now as it may be a blessing that things have changed to allow something else to happen
Avoid making important decisions
Hang back from launching something new or starting new projects for the time being , unless it was planned before the retrograde
Avoid trying to nail down a plan , being flexible is useful
Backup and save information - devices can be tricky
Miss-communications are possible
Remember it's a time of forgetfulness!
Traveling can be more problematic
Avoid buying and selling - you will profit more when mercury moves forward
It can be a time of confusion, keep it simple
It's a great time to connect to the past - enjoy and have fun!
Rest, relax and rejoice! Love to everyone, Jason
