We're currently in the midst of our first Mercury retrograde of the year. The planet of communication, learning, and travel has dipped back into dreamy, intuitive Pisces until the 28th of the month. Expect a dip in your energy levels now that we have quite a few planets in this sign, including the Sun and Neptune, which can make our minds a little foggy. You may feel a lack of direction right now due to the Piscean mutable energy. However, you are encouraged to surrender to the flow right now as this Mercury retrograde gifts you the opportunity to reconnect with your soul and to receive the next steps for your journey.

Be gentle with yourself and others, as this is a highly sensitive time. Focus on developing your psychic gifts through meditation, divination, or dream work. Your inner world will be very active over the next few weeks. Try to keep a journal to record your experiences or to simply release the overwhelm of emotions that you're feeling during this empathic time. Overall, this Mercury retrograde can be a beneficial factor in helping you gain the closure you need surrounding situations in which you've played the role of victim or martyr. It's time to revamp your perspective when it comes to using boundaries that empower you and contribute to healthier interactions with others.

Things are getting deep for you this month as Mercury dips into your sister sign. You'll probably feel the urge to go into retreat mode during this time to rest and reflect on the past few months of your life. There are big changes expected to take place for you throughout the year now that the North node has moved into your sign. After this Summer's eclipse season, you'll notice a trend of the Mercury retrogrades being in Water signs so this is just a taste of what is to come throughout the next year and a half.

During this particular retrograde, you'll be integrating energetic downloads and intuitive insights through your connection to your Higher Self. It's important that you prioritize your spiritual wellness this month. Spend some time in solitude researching topics of interest. You may be interested in revisiting an old spiritual practice or teacher that previously provided you with guidance and support. If you're feeling restless, this could be a good time to start planning an international excursion that can facilitate the spiritual sustenance and higher learning that you're craving. Make sure your passport is updated and double check your itinerary to avoid any travel delays.
