How To Survive Mercury Retrograde And The Full Moon

 

Hello Friends,

This is a really interesting time astrologically. Mercury retrograde is looming in the air. As I write this we are in the pre-shadow phase.  While the retrograde actually starts on December third you may be feeling the effects now.

This pre-shadow phase usually only has a great effect on those with heavy mercury in their charts. This particular one, however, is likely to affect us all.

You may find yourself feeling angry or frustrated more easily than usual. Perhaps holding on to grudges, or having a shorter fuse than usual.

Try to remember to breathe, this is not the time for a confrontation. Don’t allow toxic negative energy to build inside you. Remember to cleanse and take care of yourself emotionally and energetically.

The beginning of Mercury Retrograde also coincides with a full moon.  The moon is all about subconscious emotions and desires. You may feel more emotional than usual, or be plagued with thoughts and memories of the past.

Another side note about this full moon is that it will cast a light on things revealing what’s been hidden. Secrets, hidden feelings and desires will be brought out in the open at this time.

Because this is happening during Mercury Retrograde you must really be cautious about your words and actions. This is a time when communication is often muddled and misunderstood. Now we are adding a big ass secret revealing full moon to the party. Oh, and we just got through an anger-inducing shadow phase lol.

I think we could all use some good news right now,

Firstly the moon is great for manifesting and setting your intentions. This one may help you understand yourself better. Use meditation to get in tune with your true self. Knowing what you REALLY want will help you actually get it.

This is the perfect excuse to slow down your pace. Think about what you want to say, how you want your message to come across. Don’t push yourself. Take some me time for self-reflection. Now I know you are saying “Is this Bish cray cray?” I am well aware that the holiday season is upon us. And this retrograde runs right through most of it (until 12/22).

It is really important to make thoughtful deliberate decisions. Don’t let your plate get too full. Don’t neglect self-care.

I feel understanding what’s going on astrologically helps us feel more powerful and in control of our lives. I hope this post will give you some hope and inspiration to glide through the next 30 days.

<3 Jen
