Mercury retrogrades are always a bit of an emotional and mental disaster as we are forced to look back on the past, revisit some themes and topics, and revise our plans for the future. Mercury is joining the other major hitting planets in retrograde, this time though, in Libra where we will get a chance to revisit some relationship issues and some topics and themes around justice, peace, and balance.
Mercury had entered into Libra back on August 30th, and has had us very focused on where we were thinking and living life in extremes. This realization helped us to restore peace, harmony, and fairness by speaking up and advocating for our own wants, needs, and desires, as we fought tirelessly to see what and who was worth our time, energy and efforts.
Mercury retrograding in Libra should reveal profound insights on what is fair. What we need as individuals, and what we need as a team. Conversations of depth and purpose will be easier to have. Self worth and inner value has levelled up, and using others as a mirror to see our own wounds still needing to be healed will give us the clarity and direction we’ve been lacking.
Make no mistake though, mercury is still reflective and asleep. The libra energy is naturally indecisive and constantly looking for external validation, and mercury retrograding in libra won’t be a clear mental game, instead we are still heavily reliant on our intuition and trusting the universe to guide the way.
Mercury will go direct in libra on October 18th when Jupiter who is retrograde in Aquarius will also go direct. This is an indicator of a HUGE shift in perspective, and destruction of old narratives, and a much more positive outlook of the future. These next few weeks will be full of dark truths emerging, exposing lies, corruption and misinformation and will lead to a very interesting sorting of details as we move forward. Mercury along with the other retrograde planets are preparing us for a total transformation to our realities once they all start going direct mid October.
