Speaker 1 (00:00):
Let's talk about mercury retrograde, what not to do, what
to make sure you're doing, and how to use this
time to level up, upgrade, and yes, manifest your goals
and intentions and make fabulous progress on the things that
are important to you in your life. Very shortly, I'm
going to dive in and share some mindset with you
(00:21):
and also some practical and of course magical techniques and
things you can do to just use this time as
a beautiful magical reset and like I said, to manifest
and up level when it comes to.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Your goals and intentions.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
So make sure that you've got a notebook and pen
with you, because you're going to want to take a
lot of notes. But before we dive in, I want
to let you know two exciting things. The first is
I'm doing my Zoom Master classes again most weeks, so
make sure that you check out that Learn Magic section
on my website and that you're also signed up to
my newsletter. I tend to send out like a heads
(00:56):
up about upcoming classes a few days before they launch.
We had a beautiful class last week on how to
create a magical practice that works for you, and the
week before that we did a beautiful class called Hot
and Unbothered that was really really fun as well. I'm
not sure the exact name this class will be, but
it's going to be around Mercury retrograde and how to
thrive during.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
This time as well.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
One of the beautiful things about the classes is not
only the amaze and content, but the connection. I tend
to log on about fifteen minutes before the session, and
I encourage other people to as well, so we can
all say hi, connect, catch up, and then we often
stay on after the session as well, so people are
sort of connecting with other like minded WITCHI people around
(01:39):
the world, and of course making friends as well, which
I think is just so important, especially you know, as
witches and magical practitioners. So that's the first announcement. The
second is I'm thrilled to announce I'm opening up enrollment
for the new round of the Confident Reader Mastermind. This
is my signature program where I coach and mentor and
(02:00):
train you to develop your gifts and abilities, your unique
and authentic gifts. I show you how to read taro
with confidence and connect to the cards in magical ways.
I also show you lots and lots of techniques and
tips that you can use in your readings to deeply
support and empower and help your client to navigate things,
(02:21):
manifest their goals, and most importantly, really step into their power.
The way I practice Taro, and certainly the way I
teach it, is that it's a fabulous tool for empowering people.
It's not just about predicting things. It's about empowering you
to create the life that you want. So if you'd
like to learn more about learning how to read Taro
with confidence and developing your gifts, definitely reach out privately,
(02:44):
or you can, of course also check out the links
in the show notes as well. So let's dive in
with the content this week. So Mercury Retrograde has officially started.
I want to just open this episode by saying, you
get to chew how you experience this time. Okay, please
do not connect to content that scares you, winds you up,
(03:08):
warns you about this time. You get what I'm saying.
Even last night I was scrolling on TikTok and I
saw this video and the sort of the font was
in red, and it was like, you know what to
watch out for and what not to do during this
time just in the bin with that, babe. Okay, let's
just open the session by saying, in the bin with that.
Do not go into any period fearful and projecting, fear
(03:32):
and projecting, you know, chaotic energy.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Right.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
It's fair to assume that you're listening to this podcast
you are a witch or a magician, or you practice
magic and law of attraction, so you already know the
power of your mind. Okay, so don't do that. I'm
going to jump in now, so zero point one. The
first piece I want to share with you is exactly that.
Don't freak out, Okay. Don't go into anything scaring yourself,
(03:56):
winding yourself up, telling yourself it's going to be scary, chaotic,
things are going to be weird. Don't do that, okay. Instead,
use the power of your blessing, use the power of
your intention. If you watch me on TikTok or you
watch you know me on Instagram, you'll know A practice
I often share is the power of you speaking blessings
(04:17):
over yourself and your life and your day. So take
a moment and just say, I bless this mercury retrograde
to be a beautiful, magical time. I bless this period
to be full of wonderful upgrades and level ups and manifestations.
I bless myself and my day, and so it is right.
Do not go into anything fearful, freaking out scared.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
It is not going to help anything. Okay. Second point
is get prepared.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
You know, you often see content where people will talk
about stuff like make sure you have everything saved, make
sure you have everything backed up. Those are things we
should all be doing anyway. That's not actually just a
retrograde thing. That's like a kind of being, you know,
setting yourself up for se success thing. So if you
haven't done those things already, don't do them anyway. You know,
(05:05):
if you're a writer and you're working on your book,
for example, there should never be a situation where the
only copy of your manuscript is on one old laptop.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
That's just silly, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
So make sure that you're emailing yourself stuff, You've got
things saved in several places. Make sure that you're sort
of double checking things, you know, if you're sending out
newsletters or you know, social media content or you're doing
anything like that. You know, run stuff through spell check anyway,
and there's no judgment with that. Like I have to
run stuff through spell check all the time, but I
know that about myself, so I deliberately set it up
(05:38):
so that it does it automatically. Okay, So set yourself
up for success is what I'm saying. And don't use
retrograde as an excuse to kind of give your power away, like, oh,
the spelling mistake on that post was typical retrograde. No,
take responsibility and set yourself up for success. Okay, you're
a strong, capable person and you don't need to be
using retrograde as like a reason to sort of, let's say,
(06:02):
not set yourself up for success.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Okay. The next piece is set the intention. Right.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
We kind of just covered that, but I think it's
really important to always be mindful of the power of
your intention. If you're going into mercury retrograde afraid you're
thinking it's gonna be chaotic, don't do that, Okay, just
use the power of your intention. It's my intention that
this retrograde is a powerful, magical time, that it's smooth
and easy, and that I manifest my goals magically and
(06:30):
with ease and abundance. It is a beautiful time, actually,
and it's really powerful. You know, I saw something the
other night and it was saying like, don't do this,
and don't do that, and don't sown contracts and don't
buy things. Honestly, just ignore that. That's simply not the
case at all. I know lots and lots and lots
of people, myself included, who have done all of those
(06:51):
things in retrograde and they've gone fabulously. You can also
do those things when it's not retrograde and they don't
go well. So please ignore all that kind of Okay,
when you're doing things, just make sure that you're doing
it with intention, you're double checking, you're setting yourself up
for success. And the next piece here is use your practice.
I think that's true all year, right, use your practice.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
For example, you.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Know, make sure you're doing you know, regular cleansing, regular protection,
regular gratitude, regular personal power work, make sure you're doing prosperity, magic,
all those things. But use your practice. You know, there's
lots of different magical techniques you can use specifically for retrograde.
You know, I'd recommend lots of cleansing work, right, that's
(07:37):
always a good idea, lots of grounding work using crystals
like hematite, black tormaline, using things like rose quartz to
keep you nice and calm, you know, and sort of
check in with yourself and ask yourself what you need.
If you feel like you're having maybe lots of arguments
or you're bumping heads with lots of people, you know,
do some meditation work, do some work to calm yourself down,
(08:00):
and do some emotional cleansing work or some emotional balancing work.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Right, you get my point. Use your magical practice.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
I always say in my classes, and you know, I
said in this week's reading, like, are you witching or bitching?
If you're bitching about a situation and you're giving your
power away and you're complaining, you're doing exactly that, right,
You're giving your power away.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Don't do that.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Use your practice, use your magic, use the power within you,
light your candles, do your petitions. Basically, just do the
things that you like to do, okay, the things that.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
You don't work.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I would also recommend that you create a vision board.
You know, a lot of people, myself included, believe that
retrogrades are like a great opportunity to pause and reset,
so to think about what's working, what's not working, and
what you'd like to create now. The timing of this one,
I think is also quite magical because we've got, you know,
let's be honest, a month and a half left of
this year, So this is a great time to maybe
(08:55):
make a little mini vision board. Think about what would
I like to get done between now and the end
of the year. What would I like to be already
doing when twenty twenty six comes in. What are some
goals I haven't taken action on yet? You know, retrograde's
also a really good time to revisit things. So that
thing that you paused a few months ago or a
few weeks ago, it's a great time to think about
(09:16):
picking that back up. The next is something I want
to teach you which is an absolute game changer. And
this is something that I teach my clients a lot,
and it's the power pause. Okay, it's the power pause.
A lot of people will say that when mercury is
in retrograde, it can, let's say, cause of an affriction
with communication with you know, misunderstandings, etc. And sure that
(09:37):
can absolutely be true, but it can also be true
any other times of the year as well. So if
you find these things happening, I want you to do
what I call the power pause. It's where you pause
and you take a breath before reacting. You don't have
to respond to every message that comes in immediately, every email,
every DM. You don't even have to respond to anything
(09:59):
in person it comes in phone call, message, or even
something in face to face. Nobody has that power of
you that you have to respond right away. So give
yourself the gift of the power pause, pause, take a
breath and check in with yourself. Ask yourself, like, what
who do I want to be in this interaction? Who
(10:20):
do I want to be? And how do I want
to show up? You know, sending off messages too quickly
because you're reactive is never a good idea. I would
always recommend, you know, if it's a message and something
you have to reply to, give yourself at least a day,
do some grounding, some meditation, some cleansing, really get your
vibration right first, and then look to respond. But don't
(10:43):
ever respond in the moment, especially in person. You know,
give yourself permission to just take that moment and just pause.
And if you need to say to people you know
you can just say, let's revisit this later. I'm going
to take some time to think, or I'm going to
take some time to process. But remember you don't have
to respond to things immediately, and it's often far better
to not do that. So the power pause can be
(11:06):
your best friend. And that's not just necessarily when it
comes to people. Could be situations, right, you might have
let's say, misunderstood something, or you might be something might
happen physically, right, the power pause pause, take a breath,
check in and ask yourself, who do I want to
be in this situation? And how do I want to
show up? That moves in beautifully with the next piece,
(11:29):
which is I've written here five of Swords, Who do
I want to be? The Five of Swords? In Taro
is a great card about reviewing and sort of stepping
into that place where you're let's say, responding rather than reacting.
So I think that's a great thing to do in general,
but especially around this time. Ask yourself, like, how do
I want to be right now? Do you want to
(11:51):
be reacting in the same way, playing the same role
in all those situations and getting the same results, or
do you want to be stepping into this beautiful like
new version of yourself, this new story this new timeline.
That's the key, right, If you keep playing the same role,
you're going to be in the same story. So you
(12:11):
need to play a different role and that means showing
up differently in your life, seeing yourself differently, and of
course responding and reacting differently as well. So use this
time to really get clear on, you know, how do
I want to be and who do I want to be?
Not everything deserves your attention and intention, and get clear
(12:31):
on the things that do. Think about what your goals
and intentions are and nourish those things by paying attention
to them and of course taking action on them. And
the things that don't, you know, the things you've outgrown
or let go of. Release And that's the final piece
here is close the I've written down, close the loops
magically or close loops magically, you know, think about what
(12:53):
it's time for you to let go of and release
that relationship that's just toxic and not serving you, that
friendship you've outgrown, that client who maybe is a pain
to work with, that whatever it is, maybe they don't
need to even be that dramatic. Maybe it's just something
more subtle. But think about, like, what have you outgrown?
What is it time for you to release? And then
you can do a little release ritual for yourself, little
(13:14):
spell or something to release that. Closing loops is also
a good thing, right, Let's say something from your something
from your past pops up or someone pops back up.
Ask yourself, you know, how do I want to be
this time around? How can I close this loop in
a way that works for me? That might mean not responding, sure,
(13:35):
it might mean responding in a different way or telling
yourself a different story about it, but always give yourself
permission to sort of close those loops magically, meaning that
you're doing it with intention, right, rather than reacting and
being unconscious and just kind of going into sort of,
let's say, fairly robotic behavior. Give yourself permission to get
(13:56):
clear on who you want to be and of course
show up as that version of yourself as well. Our
last piece I want to share with you is retrograde
is a really good time to work on things that
you have put off before. So any goals that you
may be put off before, or you paused, or you
may be sort of just I don't know, let's slide
away whatever. It's a really good time to pick those
things back up with a fresh mindset, fresh energy, and
(14:19):
to sort of recommit to them in an interesting and
let's say, magical new way. So think about what you
can also use this time for when it comes to
things like your goals and your intentions as well. There's
lots of magical practices that you can do around this
time as well. There's also tons of different techniques I'll
be teaching those in the class coming up this week,
so make sure that you check out my newsletter and
(14:41):
also TikTok and Instagram for updates and of course links
to join. I'm sending you magic and blessings for a
beautiful week and also for a magical retrograde and made
this time really allow you to level up, upgrade and
of course manifest your goals and intentions. Sending you magic
and blessings.
Let's talk about mercury retrograde, what not to do, what
to make sure you're doing, and how to use this
time to level up, upgrade, and yes, manifest your goals
and intentions and make fabulous progress on the things that
are important to you in your life. Very shortly, I'm
going to dive in and share some mindset with you
(00:21):
and also some practical and of course magical techniques and
things you can do to just use this time as
a beautiful magical reset and like I said, to manifest
and up level when it comes to.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Your goals and intentions.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
So make sure that you've got a notebook and pen
with you, because you're going to want to take a
lot of notes. But before we dive in, I want

do not connect to content that scares you, winds you up,
(03:08):

and it's the power pause. Okay, it's the power pause.
A lot of people will say that when mercury is
in retrograde, it can, let's say, cause of an affriction
with communication with you know, misunderstandings, etc. And sure that
(09:37):
can absolutely be true, but it can also be true
any other times of the year as well. So if
you find these things happening, I want you to do
what I call the power pause. It's where you pause
and you take a breath before reacting. You don't have
to respond to every message that comes in immediately, every email,
every DM. You don't even have to respond to anything
(09:59):
in person it comes in phone call, message, or even
something in face to face. Nobody has that power of
you that you have to respond right away. So give
yourself the gift of the power pause, pause, take a
breath and check in with yourself. Ask yourself, like, what
who do I want to be in this interaction? Who
(10:20):
do I want to be? And how do I want
to show up? You know, sending off messages too quickly
because you're reactive is never a good idea. I would
always recommend, you know, if it's a message and something
you have to reply to, give yourself at least a day,
do some grounding, some meditation, some cleansing, really get your
vibration right first, and then look to respond. But don't
(10:43):
ever respond in the moment, especially in person. You know,
give yourself permission to just take that moment and just pause.
And if you need to say to people you know
you can just say, let's revisit this later. I'm going
to take some time to think, or I'm going to
take some time to process. But remember you don't have
to respond to things immediately, and it's often far better
to not do that. So the power pause can be
(11:06):
your best friend. And that's not just necessarily when it
comes to people. Could be situations, right, you might have
let's say, misunderstood something, or you might be something might
happen physically, right, the power pause pause, take a breath,
check in and ask yourself, who do I want to
be in this situation? And how do I want to
show up? That moves in beautifully with the next piece,
(11:29):
which is I've written here five of Swords, Who do
I want to be? The Five of Swords? In Taro
is a great card about reviewing and sort of stepping
into that place where you're let's say, responding rather than reacting.
So I think that's a great thing to do in general,
but especially around this time. Ask yourself, like, how do
I want to be right now? Do you want to
(11:51):
be reacting in the same way, playing the same role
in all those situations and getting the same results, or
do you want to be stepping into this beautiful like
new version of yourself, this new story this new timeline.
That's the key, right, If you keep playing the same role,
you're going to be in the same story. So you
(12:11):
need to play a different role and that means showing
up differently in your life, seeing yourself differently, and of
course responding and reacting differently as well. So use this
time to really get clear on, you know, how do
I want to be and who do I want to be?
Not everything deserves your attention and intention, and get clear
(12:31):
on the things that do. Think about what your goals
and intentions are and nourish those things by paying attention
to them and of course taking action on them. And
the things that don't, you know, the things you've outgrown
or let go of. Release And that's the final piece
here is close the I've written down, close the loops
magically or close loops magically, you know, think about what
(12:53):
it's time for you to let go of and release
that relationship that's just toxic and not serving you, that
friendship you've outgrown, that client who maybe is a pain
to work with, that whatever it is, maybe they don't
need to even be that dramatic. Maybe it's just something
more subtle. But think about, like, what have you outgrown?
What is it time for you to release? And then
you can do a little release ritual for yourself, little
(13:14):
spell or something to release that. Closing loops is also
a good thing, right, Let's say something from your something
from your past pops up or someone pops back up.
Ask yourself, you know, how do I want to be
this time around? How can I close this loop in
a way that works for me? That might mean not responding, sure,
(13:35):
it might mean responding in a different way or telling
yourself a different story about it, but always give yourself
permission to sort of close those loops magically, meaning that
you're doing it with intention, right, rather than reacting and
being unconscious and just kind of going into sort of,
let's say, fairly robotic behavior. Give yourself permission to get
(13:56):
clear on who you want to be and of course
show up as that version of yourself as well. Our
last piece I want to share with you is retrograde
is a really good time to work on things that
you have put off before. So any goals that you
may be put off before, or you paused, or you
may be sort of just I don't know, let's slide
away whatever. It's a really good time to pick those
things back up with a fresh mindset, fresh energy, and
(14:19):
to sort of recommit to them in an interesting and
let's say, magical new way. So think about what you
can also use this time for when it comes to
things like your goals and your intentions as well. There's
lots of magical practices that you can do around this
time as well. There's also tons of different techniques I'll
be teaching those in the class coming up this week,
so make sure that you check out my newsletter and
(14:41):
also TikTok and Instagram for updates and of course links
to join. I'm sending you magic and blessings for a
beautiful week and also for a magical retrograde and made
this time really allow you to level up, upgrade and
of course manifest your goals and intentions. Sending you magic
and blessings.
