Mercury Retrograde September 27 - October 17th 2021
Time to get things in order this week as Mercury Retrograde begins September 27th. What does Mercury retrograde actually mean? Mercury is the planetary energy that symbolizes communication, travel, technology, transactions, exchange. When the planet begins to appear as if it is going backward in our sky - this is considered retrograde. It appears to do so because of the relative positions of the planet and Earth and how they are moving around the Sun. The energy calls us to 'go within'. To reconsider, to re-evaluate, to come back and remember who we are. This can be a time where our past revisits us - this can be in the form of a person we haven't seen in a long time suddenly calls or we see again. The energy is coming back for a reason. Because Mercury is responsible for travel - many astrologers advise clients to be aware of travel at this time and be present and patient with any delays.
This energy lasts until October 17th - where Mercury then turns direct.
This is a time to journal. Come back to old projects. Revisit former versions of yourself for deeper integration. Honor your journey and far you have come thus far.
Where this energy gets emphasised is different for each person based on their specific chart.
