Mercury Retrograde - Spring 2022

Mercury will retrograde from May 10 - June 3, starting its retrograde in Gemini, retracing its steps through the first handful degrees of Gemini and re-entering Taurus, where it will finish its retrograde. Mercury is the planet that governs the mind, ideas, mental processing, communication, technology, short-travel, social interactions, small details, day-to-day habits, schedules, routines, and systems. While Mercury is retrograde, we are more likely to experience issues, errors, delays, and frustrations in these areas of life.

Taurus-Scorpio Eclipses

On April 30 we had the first of two special lunations in the eclipse season currently upon us (the new and full moons of Taurus season 2022). The North and South Node (AKA lunar nodes - the mathematical points that indicate the moon’s path across the ecliptic) are currently in Taurus and Scorpio, indicating where and how we’ll experience eclipses: beginnings and endings, growth, opportunities, alignment, and changes.

The Full Moon in Libra

The Full Moon in Libra on April 16, 2022 is a gorgeous and supportive full moon that may bring some changes or nudge us further into growth (versus complacency). It’s packed with lots of love and wisdom to help us see what we need to do in order to be our best selves, live our best lives, and show up as our best for others. As you work with this energy, tie in compassion and unconditional love for yourselves and others while you practice healthy boundaries and accountability.

Full Moon in Capricorn

There is more to life than “work” (labor) but indeed there is a time and place; today is a day that we call our focus to that aspect of life and understand our work/labor is a way to provide and care for ourselves and others.

Total Lunar Eclipse in Sagittarius

The full moon in Sagittarius will be with the South Node, opposing the Sun and North Node in Gemini - a great combo for being open to releasing the old to make room for the new. This will be a continuation of the Gemini-Sagittarius eclipse cycle that began in June of 2020.

The Chariot Tarot Card + Mars in Cancer

Those who are familiar with the Tarot will (likely) know that each card in the Major Arcana is associated with an element of astrology: either a zodiac sign or planet. The Chariot is associated with Cancer. It is a card of forward motion as we embark to fulfill our will. It is a card of control, focus, determination, and victory. If anything, I get big “Mars” energy from this card! So what does the Chariot have to do with Cancer?
