4/25/24 ✨ Mercury Stations Direct

Press the reset button. Mercury stations direct in Aries, giving us an opportunity to reflect on all the wisdom we’ve gained over the past few weeks and begin again with renewed perspective. And we’ll have plenty of motivation to back up our mindset this morning as the Scorpio moon harmonized with Mars. It’s go time! But don’t be surprised if you hit a wall (or completely crash) this afternoon when the moon connects with Neptune. Going too hard this morning could lead to burnout and mental fog this evening. The Waning Gibbous moon enters Sagittarius this evening, renewing our sense of optimism and reminding us to let our hair down and have fun. There’s value in allowing ourselves to feel both the lows and highs of life.

4/1/24 ✨ Mercury Stations Retrograde

Release the need to achieve and appreciate how far you’ve already come. Seeing our situation through the lens of logic can help us gain a more mature perspective and let go of outdated expectations. An emotional turning point is possible late tonight.

8/23/23 ✨ Virgo Season Begins!

Welcome to Virgo Season! The late-summer sun moves into the sign of the virgin, ushering us into a season of intention and productivity. But just hours later, Mercury begins a three-week retrograde, scrambling our mental state and crossing wires. Tech glitches and communication breakdowns are to be expected. The Scorpio moon makes us crave control- beware of trying to manipulate others to avoid your own discomfort. Remaining rooted in our own bodies can help us navigate any unexpected twists and turns.

4/21/23 ✨ Mercury Stations Retrograde

The most notorious astrology transit is baaaack…. We wake up under a Mercury Retrograde, keeping the pace slow this Friday. Over the coming weeks, we are invited to review our values and ideas. We could even bump into people from our past too. We’re entering a period of reflection and revision, but crossed wires, communication mishaps, and travel issues are a possibility along the way. Take it slow. Just hours after Mercury begins its backspin, the Taurus moon meets up with Uranus, emphasizing the energetic shift. This sets the stage for surprises, changes, and upsets today. We can find a soft place to land tonight as the moon connects with Neptune. Full permission to cozy up and chill out after a wild week.

9/23/22 ✨ Mercury Moves Back into Virgo

Mercury Retrograde moves back into the most meticulous sign of the zodiac, making us especially critical. Being matter-of-fact could come across as harsh the next few weeks, even if we’re just trying to get our point across clearly. We might also revisit conversations we had or plans we made between August 3 + August 25. Slow down and be especially mindful with how you’re communicating.
