Mercury - the messenger of the Gods ruling over the mental plane, effecting how we think, how we form new opinions, and how we communicate - has been retrograde taking us back to revisit some topics and themes from the past that needed a bit more closure.
Mercury first fell asleep at the wheel back on January 30th, creating a conflict between our heart and our head. Once mercury actually went retrograde, all bets were off and our mental planes totally shut down leading us to have to trust and surrender to the universe and the emotional and karmic journey we were now on.
Mercury’s retrograde had us retracing our steps with the ideas and new goals we had since the beginning of the year. We had our realities shift rapidly and many of us have been lost in a whirlwind of confusion trying to make sense of all that has transpired.
We are now in Pisces season bringing up all the feels to heal and new dreams we’re trying to create. We will have stronger intuitions to help us connect the dots and with today’s Moon now in Gemini (Mercury’s in its place of power in Gemini), mercury comes back online, now very much awake out of his 3 week slumber.
With all planets direct we get to start moving forward from the emotional stand still we’ve been stuck in. The full moon in virgo is about a week away (Mercury also rules Virgo) and this full moon will illuminate the details we’ve been missing and reveal some pieces of the puzzle we’ve been searching for. This Mercury ruled full moon will help us get our minds in order, while mercury direct in Aquarius is helping us to break free from the situations we’ve been stuck in. This is a time to retrace our steps from mid January up until now, cleaning up the conversations that went wrong, and the straightening out the details that went to mush as the retrograde played its game.

Be cautious though, it will take mercury until March 13th to reach his full power and potential once again. Meaning, we could still experience mercury retrograde symptoms (confusion, breakdowns in communications, and the inability to actually take action in moving forward) until the power of mercury is at its fullest potential after this post-retrograde period.
