Although, there are a few things you should keep in mind, especially if you think you’re about to sail through this. Communication<\/strong> is the key here! The last 18 months<\/strong> especially have shown just how necessary it is to keep the channels open<\/strong> and the conversation clear<\/strong>!<\/p>\n The word\u00a0Retrograde<\/strong> comes from the Latin word ‘retrogradus<\/strong>‘<\/em>,\u00a0which translates as\u00a0\u201cbackward step<\/strong>.\u201d As it suggests, Retrograde is the term for when a planet appears to reverse its orbit, from the perspective of our planet.<\/p>\n The\u00a0Mercury Retrograde<\/strong> first came to prominence through mythology, Mercury<\/strong> was the messenger<\/strong><\/a> of the Roman Gods<\/strong><\/a>. Always there with communication!<\/p>\n With the Retrograde<\/strong> in the air sign of Libra<\/a>,<\/b> friendships may be enhanced and be even stronger than usual. At this time Mercury<\/strong><\/a> makes a positive trine aspect to Jupiter<\/strong><\/a> and a testing square aspect to Pluto<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n This gives added popularity<\/strong> to our individual lives and towards our loved ones<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/strong>It may also be a good time to talk to that special person. Don’t hesitate, we’ve all been waiting too long!<\/p>\n Throughout this year,\u00a0Mercury<\/strong>\u00a0has been retrograding throughout the water signs, as a signal to the universe to ask us to work on strengthening our intuition and self-improvement.\u00a0As\u00a0Mercury<\/strong>\u00a0flows through this final water sign<\/strong>, it starts to feel like a full circle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n For\u00a02021<\/strong> we have endured three instances of a Mercury Retrograde<\/strong>, which interestingly enough, all happen to have been\u00a0Air Signs<\/a><\/strong>. The dates that they occurred and the meaning behind them in the UK<\/strong> are as follows,<\/p>\n In learning something about this Libra<\/strong><\/a> retrograde it is how our own intuition is used in our daily lives, especially during the past lockdowns. If something is feeling off to you, then use this Mercury Retrograde<\/strong> to draw attention so you can solve it. You totally got this!<\/p>\n Throughout the month things may start to feel a bit more optimistic for you, Aries. Allowing yourself to do your own thing and care less about what others think becomes much easier. Much of the self-doubt should also clear up for you as well. Balance is essential to prevent burnout. You may also find that your growing influence allows you to be very persuasive – so, use that wisely. With an emphasis on growth and change, it\u2019s a lot easier to clear through the clutter and get things done. You may note that collaborations benefit you the most. Allow the free exchange of ideas to flow and you may just find brilliance. If you\u2019ve been feeling stuck, an open mind can definitely help. Additionally in love, you may discover that what you give is in fact, what you get back!<\/p>\n Take care not to bite off more than you can chew, or assume the worst. You may find that you are feeling much more vulnerable but also, ready to cut loose anything that\u2019s not working. Don\u2019t be afraid to make the changes you need for a new beginning. Though scary at times, you\u2019ll find that these things are worth it.<\/p>\n Allow yourself the balance of engaging in those things you truly enjoy so that you can take care of the ones you don\u2019t. It\u2019s important to cut loose things that aren\u2019t really working – but, some things just need to be done, regardless. Take care not to impulsively act on boredom and you\u2019ll find much gets accomplished. Though you may have been dealing with many challenges with those close to you, you\u2019ll find you are able to understand things much better. Being able to sort things out and move on is key. As your head clears, so does your path and you\u2019ll find progress helps you to feel more confident. Months of confusion and lack of vision may have had you feeling a bit less than confident. However, as this lifts, you will discover that your senses come alive. Though this retrograde may hold some challenges – rising to them brings an entirely new plan to light which can help explore them fully. You need to be careful not to be so rigid, Scorpio. In this retrograde in your sign, a lot of the confusion clears and understanding that sometimes, things just don\u2019t work out, is key. Putting the past behind you will help pave the way towards brighter futures, now. Things have been a bit confusing and unclear in the past few months. Facing the truth of things and being able to course-correct them is important for you now. You\u2019ll find things get lighter and in having turned a corner – you are much better prepared for what\u2019s in store. Going your own way really seems to be the path for now and you may find yourself feeling a bit more introverted. More and more, you may find yourself rejecting those things you can\u2019t be passionate about. Taking calculated risks can pay off, and the more hands-on you can be with things, the better.<\/p>\n You may find that the\u00a0retrograde starts out a little rough, but quickly does an about-face. If you\u2019ve been struggling with a lack of direction – you may find things ease up there. With newfound resolve, you\u00a0can discover that you see opportunities you couldn\u2019t before.<\/p>\n You may find that others respond to your candour much better than you\u2019d thought. Things begin to clear up after months of challenges and confusion and an overall sense of optimism emerges. Allow yourself to push through any of the doubts you had to stand on your own feet and thrive.<\/p>\n The trilogy<\/strong><\/a> of Mercury Retrogrades<\/strong> is officially over by October 18th 2021<\/strong>.
