Mercury Rx in Gemini Vibes
You may be challenged to open yourself to new perspectives and greater resourcefulness this Mercury retrograde season. Take this opportunity over the next 3 weeks to adopt a more easy-going and lighthearted approach to life.
These vibes represent a calling for you to restore your depleted energy. Notice where you need to take care of ‘loose ends’ or anything else that needs maintenance. Process and integrate rather than chasing new endeavors. Meditate. Spend time alone. Connect with the Earth. Reflect on the recent past and make peace.
Take time out to rejuvenate (guilt-free!), and do this early in the season. Remember to honor all elements of your wellbeing – physical (earth), mental (air), emotional (water) and spiritual (fire). Explore how you can bring greater ease into your way of being.
In 2021, all Mercury retrograde seasons will be in Air element signs (wow!), which signals a focus on communication skills as a key area of development. There is a calling now to slow down, exercise patience and listen with an open heart. Don’t assume others know your plans or what you’re thinking. You may also need to finally get something important off your chest.
If you can soften your expectations and stay curious, this activation of Gemini will bring a playful, spontaneous, fun-loving vibe. Let go of attachment to any particular outcome. Delight in the process of discovery and exploration.
