Retrogrades🕰 (Briefly explanation)

Disclaimer: I don't own any of these gifs.

Let's talk about it; I receive many asks about retrogrades of different kinds (asteroids, planets...). This is for you to understand this energy when you try to read your chart or placements.

Whenever we see (r) in a natal chart, we know we have encountered a retrograde. Also, the famous Mercury retrograde gives clues about its core meaning.

Now, being born with a retrograde is different from a transit. In transit, the retrograde brings different challenges and some obstacles, and delays to pass for a certain amount of time. In a natal chart, the native is born with it. This means they are always on retrograde challenges and delays.

Retrograde (natal): delays, challenges, obstacles, later on.., difficulty, time to revise the energy, slow learning.

Retrograde (transit any planet): delay in something, a review of a lesson, slow energy, challenges, or misunderstands for a certain period of time. It isn't permanent.

People with natal retrogrades feel really great during a retrograde, so don't be scared. For example, when an astrologer mentions "Saturn is retrograde from___ to ___". This is the time for natal (r) Saturn to breathe without pressure. Many lessons would fall into places like an "aha moment" for the native. To sum up, it's the time when the native can see their issue without their constant blockages.

Note 2:

The retrograde energy applies to the sign's traits and the house, both equally. It's present in the where and how.

For example, Saturn in Aries in the 6th house (R), will have constant delays and lessons to learn through daily life or health. They will have problems with setting their boundaries within their own routines (6th house), and putting their assertiveness into action (Aries). So, these will be hard lessons to take. However, the moment they decide to take Aries's good traits into their life things will be better. These traits are assertiveness, active nature, positivism, and others in creating a healthy routine for them. They will start "paying" their past karma.

People when they see a retrograde placement in their chart:

I'm people xd

Take care, loves

I do not regret cold turkey quitting astrology twitter in the slightest but every so often I'll check an ephemeris and notice something that's like, "Uhhhhhh are y'all seeing this shit."

Sun in Virgo ♍️🌍 Moon in Gemini ♊️💨

Mercury Stations Direct

Mercury may no longer be going backwards, but we’re still in the post-shadow period, where things are getting back up to speed again. We’ll now be revisiting all topics since late July with a bit more knowledge, thanks to the reflection we just experienced.

Venus Trine Uranus

Venus in Virgo is in a trine with Uranus in Taurus. An exciting, creative person or project could show up or suddenly come to light. Expect a few plot twists in the love category or maybe some extra funds show up at this time. Surprises are in store in some war so try to go with the flow.

Moon Conjunct Jupiter

With the Moon and Jupiter hanging out in Gemini together it’s a great time to take up new feel-good opportunities. Show up for yourself with confidence and optimism to reap the rewards. This energy brings in a general feel of happiness or contentment. Emotional and spiritual growth is likely.

Moon Conjunct Mars

The Moon moves on to connect with Mars in Gemini as well. Make decisions with courage and bravery. And you may have to make them quickly. You’re feeling more respected and your leadership skills are on point. Take action on your desires and fight for what your heart truly cares about.

I'm a Hermes (Mercury) devotee...

who was born during Mercury Retrograde & a balsamic moon. Of course I forget that Hermes knows that I fucking love chaos and will just go absolutely feral by taking my shitposts as requests, especially right before Mercury Rx...

I am giggling however I hope that no medical or emergency service systems are affected.

Any astrology heads out there not worried about the election at all? Kamala’s zodiacal releasing convinced me she’s winning two terms. It’s gonna be war times for sure, massive civil unrest just looking at the US Sibley chart, but it still seems to me pretty obvious it’s gonna be her.

Hello!!

I have mercury retrograde in my natal chart

When Mercury is in retrograde has the same effect on me?

Hello bb

This applies to every retrograde.

When we have planets, astros, or asteroids in retrograde in the natal chart, during the retrograde period, things become normal to us. The retrograde period is a break for retro placements.

So, the answer is no. You don't have the same effects. Actually, communication will be smoother and easier for mercurian people. Devices will work find, and you will express your ideas better than normally. Also, this retro period can be a good time for lessons but without the pain. For example, you can realize things: "if I speak with diplomacy, people will listen to me more."

Mercury Retrograde: Winter 2023 / 2024

Mercury retrograde pre-shadow began on Nov. 25th, with Mercury still in Sagittarius until Dec. 1st.

It's suggested to avoid sending items in the mail as they're far more likely to get lost. Not always something we can do, when Mercury does this during the holidays, of course.

Other than that, try not to buy too much into the hype of Mercury retrograde messing everything up emotionally. We create more miscommunications through fear, than Mercury can ever do to us.

We can't always change circumstances, yet we can often find ways to deal with them easier by sheer force of will, and a regular practice of introspection / meditation.

Don't allow Venus to spin you into over-dramatization, as she's in one of her home signs of Libra, until Dec. 4th, when she enters Scorpio. Scorpio Venus is, well let's not mince words; gothy. Mercury retrograde is *not* specifically about romance.

Mercury retrograde post-shadow period ends Feb. 7th in Capricorn, and I'm waiting until after that to mail something across the country.

I will not be making any Mercury retrograde memes anymore, as that is an area of Astrology which is covered highly (sometimes too often) by others.

My focus on social media is, and always will be, Astrology affirmations.

I wonder what's tomorrow

Monday, March 18th 2024 Sun in Pisces ♓️🌊 Moon in Cancer ♋️🌊

Today, the Moon is hanging out in the sign of Cancer which has us in our feels but also nurturing and protecting the ones we love.

We kick off the day with the Moon in a nice trine with Saturn in Pisces which helps add discipline and structure, allowing for emotional strength that will help get us through any relationship challenges that are present. She will also sextile Jupiter in Taurus adding some optimism and making it easier to work with our feelings. This joyful energy encourages friendship, understanding and cooperation.

After her conversations with Jupiter she will also trine Uranus in Taurus bringing change into our environment.

The bigger news of the day is that Luna is in a square with Mercury in Aries. Mercury is now in the pre retrograde shadow phase. This square can bring disagreements and general moodiness. This is not a good time to get preachy and tell others how to act. Whatever is going on for you in the Aries area of your life will be the topic of focus for this upcoming retrograde period and possibly the reason for the arguments but understand that retrogrades force us to revisit topics that require reassessment or reworking (say that five times real fast). So what will you be repeating? If you need any help understanding what this retrograde period will be about for you, let me know!

Try to focus more on the nurturing and expansive side of the energies today and less on the arguing. Use this energy to assess what you’ll be working on in the next six weeks.
