Mercury Retrogrades In Cancer

Today, the planet of information, communication, and expression goes retrograde joining the other major heavy hitting planets already in retrograde. Mercury when retrograde, usually slows down our mental processes making the way we see things, and how we interpret information a bit cloudy and skewed.

Mercury retrogrades have the tendency to take us back in the past, to revisit some topics and themes that require attention and a new closure, and to reassess our plans before moving forward.

Now with Mercury retrograding in Cancer, we will be feeling a bit more sensitive and nostalgic than normal. The family dramatics will resurface, rearranging the family dynamic and reconstructing the boundaries we have in place to protect ourselves, but with Mercury now retrograde in Cancer, the emotional, and sensitive reactions will overtake what has been heated and fiery.

We are still in a time of reassessment of our plans, re-evaluating what isn't working and what needs to be tweaked, but under the Gemini energy, we are still very divided in our own thoughts and feelings. Mercury retrograding in Cancer gives us the opportunity to apply our intuition to what it is we are reviewing. Our softer sentiments can smooth the edges of what was a very fiery, hot topic, and help us to truly connect our emotions to these situations instead of allowing our ego & pride get in the way.

Because of the recent eclipse energies still stirring within us, this energy influence from Mercury retrograding in Cancer will allow the download, the shift in energy, to be a bit more calm and peaceful. We still have some integrating to do, and the emotional emergence of Mercury moving backwards in Cancer will provide a closure to many topics and themes that were triggered last summer when Mercury retrograded in Cancer and brought up all kinds of feels around the mother figure, the feminine divine energy, our homes and living arrangements, and where we need to enforce boundaries to help protect our emotions.

With 5 planets in a retrograde, (and in eclipse season) we are looking to sort out some past karma before moving forward with new chapters and timelines. Allow Mercury’s retrograde to show you where your generational wounds need to be healed, where your relationships with the mother or feminine divine energy needs more attention, and where your values have changed in the home and the relationships in it.

If you require any assistance navigating these energies, please listen to your June Forecast, listen to the weekly Energy Forecast, and/or  book a session online, and I'd be more than happy to help guide you through.
