Mercury Retrograde in Cancer For All Signs (Jul - Aug 2025)

Download the free Mercury Retrograde Guide at https://www.quietmindastrology.com/mercuryjuly2025From July 17 to August 11, 2025, Mercury goes retrograde fully in the water sign of Cancer. This is part two of three Mercury retrogrades happening entirely in water signs this year—Pisces, Cancer, and then Scorpio. Each one brings an invitation to feel what we haven’t fully felt yet… to process, heal, and finally move forward. “Feel it to heal it” is the essence of this cycle.This episode is your full Vedic astrology guide to Mercury Retrograde in Cancer. I walk you through the entire timeline—from the beginning of the shadow phase on June 29 to Mercury entering Leo on August 30—and how to actually work with this energy.💡 I created a detailed downloadable guide for this transit (free or pay what you want) at quietmindastrology.com/mercuryjuly2025. It includes rising sign practices, reflection prompts, and transit dates so you can stay grounded and make the most of this two-month window.Rather than fearing Mercury Retrograde, this is an invitation to slow down, realign, and pay attention to what’s really nourishing your mind and emotions. “You want to feel it so you can heal it.” That includes rethinking how you communicate, how you digest life emotionally, and how you respond under stress.In this episode, I cover: • Why Mercury struggles in Cancer and how that shows up emotionally and mentally • The connection between your thoughts, breath, and emotions (Upanishadic teachings) • Key dates and transitions from Pushya to Ashlesha nakshatras • How to practically work with this retrograde using Ayurvedic tips, journaling, and pattern interrupts • Why this is a powerful time to revisit old emotional wounds and speak what hasn’t been spokenHere are 5 key quotes from this episode: • “We’re not meant to just think our way through this. We’re meant to feel it.” • “If you’re feeling anxious or unsettled, check your breath. That’s where it starts.” • “You might start to go back through things under the surface in your psyche that need to be uncovered.” • “What really nourishes you—mentally, emotionally, physically? This is the time to reflect.” • “You can either break the pattern now, or repeat it again in the next retrograde.”Whether you’re Mercury-dominant, in a Mercury Dasha, or just curious about how this retrograde may affect you—this episode is for you. And if you’ve been meaning to revisit a conversation, journal more deeply, or finally clear the emotional cobwebs—you’re right on time.The full transit cycle: • June 29: Mercury enters pre-shadow at 10° Pushya • July 17 to Aug 11: Mercury retrograde from 24° to 10° Cancer • July 29: Returns to Pushya nakshatra • Aug 11: Mercury goes direct at 10° Pushya • Aug 21: Returns to Ashlesha going direct • Aug 24: Leaves shadow zone—new clarity • Aug 30: Mercury enters Leo—bold new voice🧘‍♂️ Use this retrograde to slow down. Review your emotional needs. Get curious about your habits. Ask yourself: What am I really feeding myself, mentally and emotionally? And if something feels unresolved—go inward, breathe, and let yourself feel it fully.And if you want to go deeper with astrology—beyond Mercury, beyond Cancer—join me inside the Vedic Astrology Mentorship.
