Venus ends her retrograde today,
and Mercury enters retrograde tomorrow
(11/17 through 12/06)
{Transition begins…}
With VENUS DIRECT, love is back in action,
but wants us to move forward with a deeper understanding and broader perspective of connection, truth, and soul alignments.
What did you learn over the past several weeks about Love and its many forms?
What illusions around love are you still clinging to?
Are you still afraid to let love in?
Be open to an unexpected love that comes in a new and unfamiliar way.
This MERCURY RETROGRADE month has the potential to shake us to our core.
Areas where we are boxed in, wearing blinders, or holding on too tightly
to outdated beliefs, dogmas, or ideas around who we are, will feel this most intensely.
Challenging us to take a risk
…to let go,
… to open up to “other worlds” (other realms) and ideas that may seem “crazy”
in order to align with our highest self
And rise to our greatest potential
(So important for the New Year)
Deep breaths and pauses to “reset” will help tremendously.
Remember, that which arises
has done so to either show us where work still needs to be done,
The greatness that can be if we are willing to change (sometimes by revealing where we are stuck)
and/ or
How far we have come on our journey.
Long lost friends and old relationships (or relationship issues) love to show up during a Mercury Retrograde. This can be a plus or a minus.
As usual, expect communication, travel and electronics to go a bit haywire.
…just in time for the holiday 
Next week’s THANKSGIVING FULL MOON (Friday 11/23) will begin moving in Tuesday, adding to Mercury’s holiday impact (intensity)
This Full Moon under Mercury Retrograde has the potential to challenge us in ways we haven’t seen before, particularly when it comes to personal relationships and communication.
Those who we’ve felt certain are firmly established as our greatest allies or “meant to be” in our lives,
may suddenly (further) reveal themselves as being unsupportive of our most authentic self.
Take to heart the glimpses of the “true nature” of a person when revealed.
No one is perfect,
and we should not be overly judgmental
But some good judgment is necessary especially when it comes to matters of the heart.
However, there’s a duality within this time period of MERCURY RETROGRADE. In that…
what at first the “good judgement” of the logical mind may tell us “is perfect”
Or may tell us to avoid,
Our TRUE HEART may say otherwise
… pressing us to explore what we first thought we should avoid
(Or to re-evaluate “perfection”)
Push through those boundaries, even if it’s uncomfortable
Be open to new, unfamiliar, unexpected relationships. {see above: Venus Direct}
As questioning our rules around life
And being willing to TAKE A RISK are incoming themes to carry us through the new year.
This Mercury Retrograde and next week’s full moon will also help to illuminate those areas where gratitude has been lacking,
while shining a light on the ILLUSIONS OF PERFECTION and ideology.
Prepare yourself for the days ahead by giving yourself nurturing and space.
Be patient & flexible
Do your best to avoid being clouded by Ego and grasping for perfection
Allow your Heart and your intuition to guide you.
