Mercury goes retrograde in the intuitive sign of Pisces today. ⁣ ⁣ Pisces is the home of the dreamer, dreaming up a euphoric world built on universal compassion, moved by creativity, fluid in nature, shapeless, and without bounds. ⁣ ⁣ To much of the dream and we become lost in a fantasy and/or confused by illusion. The winged messengers transit through the 12th signs mutable waters may nudge us to wake from the fantasy we’ve been living, step down from playing all mighty savior or step up & out of the victim role. ⁣ ⁣ Mercury Rx brings us back to something needing to be re-evaluated, a place in our lives needing to be reintegrated, restored, or remedied. Whatever calls for our reflection will reveal and resurface itself- we won’t need to dig for it. ⁣ ⁣ It’s not rare to be born with Mercury Rx as it orbits this way several times a year. And those born with this natal placement may feel, very subtly, like the natural order of things have been restored. ⁣ ⁣ While those with strong Gemini + Virgo placements, or a heavily aspected Mercury, tend to feel the influence of the retrograde the most. ⁣ ⁣ However, it’s not as disruptive as the hype encourages us to believe. While it’s not recommended to start new things, there’s no need to put life on hold or hide for the next 3 weeks. ⁣ ⁣ Mercury retrograde draws us back to something needing our attention, something incomplete, or unresolved. Trying to move forward when something needs our consideration creates a band of resistance, pulling us back to the same situations, feelings, or people. ⁣ ⁣ Resolution, here, is the key to unlocking the next stages of our growth and only we have the free will to do it. ⁣ ⁣ So, ⁣ ⁣ Where might we need firmer, clearer boundaries? Where or with whom could we show up with greater compassion? Where can we shift into observer instead of the judge? ⁣ ⁣ On the other hand, where can we slow down and paint with the colors of our imagination? ⁣ ⁣ To find out what area of your life is under review look to the house that contains Pisces ♓️ in your birth chart.

Took my cousin @natalie.epps snowboarding for the first time and she rocked it! It’s a wildly incredible experience watching someone grow up. She’s had me in awe since day 1 💜
January 20th welcomed us into Aquarius season, the start of a new sun cycle, and a slightly different flavor than earth governed Capricorn. Capricorn lent us its lessons on labors of love and offered the opportunity to view hard work, discipline, and dedication as pathways to wisdom. ⁣ ⁣ ☾⁣ ⁣ Capricorn can often feel a sense of satisfaction or sustainability from adhering to or following the status quo while Aquarius breaks away from the need to conform to succeed. Traditionally, Capricorn and Aquarius share Saturn as a co-ruler but since the discovery of Uranus in 1781, Aquarius adopted the newly seen modern planet as ruler.⁣ ⁣ ☾⁣ ⁣ So while the Aquarian energy can unfurl in eccentric, radical, (Uranus) rule breaking, or structured and more conventional expressions (Saturn), it is always with the focus of improving or advancing humanity. Aquarius is forward thinking, infused with electric foresight, and envisions the future through a wide lens of new possibilities. ⁣ ⁣ ☾⁣ ⁣ With the Sun and moon aligned in Aquarius, drawing us into the dark sky of the new moon phase, we’re supported in allowing our individuality space within the collective. ⁣ ⁣ ☾⁣ ⁣ Do we allow ourselves the freedom to be who we are, to share our ideals even and especially when they don’t exactly fit in?⁣ Or do we shrink and camouflage that which makes us unique? ⁣ Do we allow others the space to contribute their individuality even if it opposes or conflicts with our own? ⁣ ☾⁣ ⁣ Aquarius is commonly confused as a water sign, stemming from its identity as the water bearer, however Aquarius is ruled by the air element. Both of our luminaries or light bearers mingling in the air of Aquarius invites us to accept our vast differences, embrace them as contributions to the collective, dance to the beat of our own drum, and respect the rhythm of others.⁣ ⁣ ☾⁣ ⁣ Despite our differences, we all breathe the same air. We can water our humanity by taking a deep breath. We don’t know what the future holds for certain but we can come together and revolutionize the way it unfolds.
Taking it all in 🤍
Happy birthday my love #111 ❤️ @avalanche.alex ⁣ ⁣ #ibelieveinmiraclessinceyoucamealong ⁣ ⁣ Photo 1: LSternMedia / CB News
