Remember that ” All Retrogrades are GOOD things. They give our overstimulated and over-relied-on overworked minds a mental break, time out to cool our cerebellums, our overthinking brains and take an R-E-S-T.
Mercury Retrograde is associated with communications snafu’s and travel plans which Mercury governs to go awry. Anything to do with computers, cell phone etc. social media, messages, and information tends to get screwed up. Mercury Retrogrades are not all bad, they just require reflection, time out to reconsider, reëxamine, and relax, all the Re- prefix things.
Don’t panic during any Retrograde planet time. The Rx symbol is good medicine.
Mercury is Hermes Trismegistus, Thoth the Ancient Egyptian scribe, and Trickster. ” We are the champions.” says Mercury in LEO, sung by FREDDIE MERCURY, the amazing singer from Queen was very Mercurial. Mercury in Leo is bright, passionate, into partying big time, loves to show off and have fun. Reverse the party energy during the Retro.
Mercury in the Tarot is the MAGICIAN #1 and Leo in the Tarot is usually the Card of STRENTH showing a woman- the feminine always symbolizes the soul or anima- holding the jaws of a lion open or riding the lion. In the Tarot this can be Strength #8 or #11.
While Mercury is in Leo, recover your heart and your pride, SAY IT LOUD, SAY IT PROUD. The downside of Mercury in LEO is being vain, egotistical and selfish.
MERCURY, God of messages, Magic, merchandise, tricksters, and thieves encourages our passions for communicating from our hearts. The mind/ego always wants to be King or Queen, but it is really the heart that rules. Did you know that the heart also has a brain?
