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.
Venus + Pluto and Venus’s Retrograde in Capricorn

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.
Full Moon Eclipse in Gemini
Full Moon in Aries
The Aries Full Moon will be exact on Thursday, October 1 at 4:05pm CST, highlighting the “me” v. “we” axis of Aries-Libra and potentially triggering some painful insecurities surrounding our identity, ego, and competitive nature.
Venus in Cancer
Venus moves in Cancer at 10:21am on Friday, August 7 and will remain here until Venus enters Leo on September 6. Venus in Cancer is like fresh baked sweets, a hug from your favorite grandma, or a flip through a picture book that brings comfort and a tender sense of nostalgia. With Venus in Cancer there is sweetness and care.
