WHY MERCURY RETROGRADE IS ACTUALLY A GOOD THING THIS YEAR

And it’s true, Mercury retrogrades three times a year after all.

BUT THE GOOD NEWS ABOUT IT THIS TIME IS THAT…

1. Mercury gets stronger when it retrogrades and intensifies the qualities of the sign where it is, plus this final retrograde of the year has Mercury increasing positive results for many of you.

2. Mercury in Virgo can set up opportunities for great change, brilliant ideas, incredible healings especially for nervous system and cognitive issues, for health detoxes and great money making deals when it is in Virgo.

Mercury in Virgo is in its strongest place in the heavens for wealth and commerce opportunities, for health, herbology and for developing tech solutions that speed up time-consuming activities.

SO WHAT EXACTLY MIGHT YOU NOTICE IN YOUR LIFE?

Software developers will be spinning with ideas and capabilities to solve big problems; complimentary medicine practitioners and health practitioners will discover new herbal combinations, those in neuroscience will discover new combinations to help nervous system and cognitive issues, entrepreneurs and coaches will create new products, support groups or communities which will develop great new collaborations. Marketers and sales people will shine and be in their element. Students and spiritual seekers will find detailed answers to their questions.

I encourage you to engage with any and all of the kinds of activities mentioned above (the arts, music and creativity with the kinds of friends, groups or family that can bring about those new learnings, new communities, new products, new tech solutions, or new answers to your deepest questions).

MERCURY AND JUPITER ARE LIKE TWO SUPERHEROES:

Since Mercury in Virgo is stronger through September 9th, and is with the other planet of expansion, Jupiter, this will expand commerce, learning or teaching opportunities when the famous Mercury and Jupiter combine.

A first phase of the magical combination is while Mercury is not retrograding through August 30 (straight up Mercury and Jupiter), then while Mercury retrogrades and spins in strength and provides new solutions through September 9 and then a last phase this October.

Not only is it rare for all three planets of light to be together in Virgo at the same time, but to have Mercury retrograding there, only sets it up to return to the sign of its strength for deal making again in October!

This is a VERY BIG deal this year!

ONE WORD OF WARNING:

We only need to watch out for a tendency to spin in place, since Mercury can bring such speed to some brains, that it can be overwhelming to get the ideas from our head and heart to our lips and thus hard to express our ideas.
What can you do to make sure this doesn’t happen to you?

The first is to spend time in nature and seeing green trees and plants, or increasing laughter is going to be crucial for this Mercury retrograde – try to spend small snippets of 5 minutes in nature, 3 – 5 times a day if you can.

Just lying in the cool grass and losing yourself with big deep breaths will restore your nervous system quite nicely.
If you are having a heat wave where you are, get ready to use GREEN things to help cool you off – like peppermint essential oil for instant A/C, Holy Basil tea for calm and raising your vibration or to jump through the sprinkler like a kid again or roll on cool grass in the shade.

These are all Mercurial things to do and are associated with promoting the positive effects of the planet Mercury in our lives; a planet of play and using or eating the healing vitality of plants in our lives.
