In this episode, I invite you on a reflective journey with me through the most recent Mercury Retrograde, emphasizing the beauty and depth of this misunderstood astrological event. I discuss Mercury's role as the cosmic messenger and the significance of his retrograde cycle, particularly the powerful stationing phase, when this planet changes direction.
You do not have to know anything about astrology to enjoy the information I share. It’s a worthy contemplation for anyone who is interested in the overarching energies and how to work with them in an empowering way to chart your own destiny as opposed to being cast about by the winds of change (or stuck due to lack of wind!).
Interwoven with these insights are personal reflections on my recent ancestral pilgrimage to France, where I explore the sacred practice of listening to the land and its stories. The episode invites you to embrace the wisdom of Mercury’s cycle and use these retrograde, stationing (change of direction) and shadow periods to revisit, rethink, and refine your thoughts and intentions.
Like me, for example, when I realized it was actually much more aligned to start the Sacred Sites & Quests of the Soul course in October!

Of course now Mercury is officially direct and clarity is coming back online for some of us. Others may have to wait until he clears his shadow (goes beyond the degree he turned retrograde at).

Blessings dear ones,
