How many times has Mercury retrograde crashed your wifi this month?
Hopefully, you’ve been having a much easier time with Mercury Retrograde than most — if not, it might get a little easier as Mercury transits into Libra.
The intensity might just lift a little as Mercury moves into much more charismatic cosmic energy.
Astrological Energy Shift: Mercury in Libra from October 27, 2020 – November 10, 2020
If no one has checked in with you since Mercury went into Retrograde in Scorpio, I’m here for you. I know how intense it’s been — just remember that it’s all for your highest good!
As Mercury shifts into Libra, our communication and thinking becomes considerably more friendly and thoughtful when it comes to others.
Just previously, you’ve been challenged to dive deeper and become more introspective.
However, when Mercury retrogrades in the sign of Libra, you have a chance to reassess your conversational skills.
You’ll be presented with “tests” or “challenges” that will help you refine your ability to fairly negotiate, especially when it comes to finding balance with work and relationships.
This is the time to truly practice all of the lessons that you’ve learned thus far!
Although Libra’s balancing scales can make you much more indecisive, try to integrate the lessons that Mercury in Scorpio just taught you — trust your innermost knowing.
If you’re not ready to make a decision, trust your emotions to guide you in the right direction.
When something feels right — it is. When something feels off — it is!
Maximize This Energy
Retrogrades are the best times of the astrological year to really practice the things you’ve learned.
The Universe has a rhyme and a reason for everything.
It’s no coincidence that Mercury in Libra is happening right after Mercury was just in Scorpio — and no, it’s not just the order of the signs.
The reason behind this shift is to truly check if you’ve learned those valuable lessons. Here’s a hint for recognizing if you have or not — you must feel through them.
Retrogrades push people to new levels in life and this Mercury retrograde is no different for you!
Go Deeper
One of my favorite things to do is study my own individual birth chart — and you should get to know your own intimately, too!
However, if you’re learning how to communicate and negotiate with others, it can be helpful to see their Mercury placement as well.
If you would like to get to know the easiest way to talk to someone (or communicate in a way that they are open to understanding), you can look up where Mercury falls in their chart.
