ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Mercury is retrograde. Your phone glitches, the email gets misunderstood, your plans change and suddenly the smallest inconvenience has a planetary suspect. ☿
But does Mercury retrograde really mean you should put your life on hold?
In this episode of Wildflowers & Moonlight, Alex takes the fear out of one of astrology’s most infamous transits. As a companion to the YouTube episode Mercury Retrograde Isn’t Ruining Your Life, we’re going beyond the basic explanation to talk about why Mercury retrograde makes us anxious, how astrology can become fear-based, and how to use it as a tool for reflection without giving it control over your decisions.
✨ In this episode:
- What Mercury retrograde actually means
- Astronomy vs. astrological interpretation
- Why we notice every glitch once Mercury goes retrograde
- Using astrology as a lens, not an excuse
- Why you don’t need to avoid contracts, travel, technology, or major decisions
- Yes, we’re talking about the ex coming back 👀
- Why revisiting something doesn’t mean you’re moving backward
- A simple approach to retrograde: Review, Revisit & Reflect
- Keeping your agency while working with astrology
Mercury retrograde doesn’t have to be an astrological emergency. Sometimes it can simply be an invitation to slow down, look again, and notice what deserves your attention.
Review. Revisit. Reflect. Don’t panic. ☿🌙
See you beneath the wild skies. 🌙🌿
