There are 3 retrogrades happening at once: Mercury, Saturn, and Pluto. These are three very heavy-hitters and will shake up one's world. Mercury Rx will allow for opportunities of growth through communication, and will challenge one to think, speak, and respond differently when feeling challenged. One may feel that patience in dealings with others as well as electronics is called for, and this may try one's levels of reaction. Take time to step back if you feel that you need some space so that no permanent harm is done. Saturn Rx challenges one to find their own power. This leaves one feeling as though they are powerless, but it is an illusion. Issues that made one feel powerless in childhood or in the past come to the surface for one to deal with, and it is a time of reflection. The current circumstances are a reflection of how one felt unstable in the past, and it is up the the person to respond differently so as to break the cycle of anger/upset. There is much pain and hurt coming up for many, and this time is best used to face what needs to be faced within oneself. Journaling, self-care, feeling self-love, and looking inward are all called for. There is no need to lash out however, if this has been one's pattern in the past, it is an opportunity to consciously change to a calmer, more centered response that fits with who one truly wants to be. Pluto Rx deals with "life or death" energies. It has a frequency of growth but there is always a trade-off when growing through Pluto. One may feel as though much is lost when changes need to be made. It is not a time of sadness, perhaps, as much as a time of understanding and compassion. Compassion for others, compassion for self, and compassion for the pain that all react from. Realizing that others' actions have nothing to do with you can take one to a calmer space. If one is lashing out, they are in pain. This one does not need anger thrown back, but compassion and understanding. This energy will last several months, so one might practice self-control, compassion, understanding, and forgiveness during this time. On the other side of it, one will be different. It is your life. You decide what and who you want to be. Time will pass either way. No matter what, believe in yourself and know that your Guides are on your side. Always.
