They say that the more we love ourselves, the more we detach from what no longer serves us. During Mercury Retrograde this is specially important. Beginning November 25 and continuing until December 15, 2024, Mercury retraces its steps through the fires of Sagittarius in a beautiful opportunity to observe the beliefs, philosophies, and cosmologies that frame the way we not only see but interact with life.
Nurturing your mind, body, and spirit with the gentleness of the cacao medicine will help to prepare you for this challenging time.
Mercury is the planet associated with communication and when we say "Mercury goes backwards," we're referring to the phenomenon of Mercury retrograde. This is an optical illusion that occurs when Mercury appears to move in the opposite direction in the sky compared to its usual motion.
Mercury retrograde encourages reflection and reassessment, often bringing past situations or unresolved conflicts back to the surface. This can lead to heated discussions or disagreements as old wounds are revisited. The uncertainties associated with retrograde can create anxiety, leading individuals to react defensively or aggressively in situations that wouldn’t typically provoke such responses.
Despite its challenging reputation, Mercury retrograde can also provide opportunities for introspection, healing, and tying up loose ends. It encourages revisiting old projects and refining ideas.
