Retrograde

The next Mercury Retrograde will start in . . .

Slow Down, Reflect, Realign & Rise

Mercury Retrograde is often misunderstood and even feared—but in truth, it is a powerful and necessary energetic cycle. Rather than something to “survive,” this is a time to pause, reflect, and realign with your highest path.

As the planet of communication, travel, and technology appears to move backward, we are invited inward. Old patterns resurface, past connections may reappear, and life gently nudges us to revisit what has been left unresolved.

This is not a time of chaos—it is a time of course correction.

On this page, you’ll find everything you need to understand, navigate, and energetically work with Mercury Retrograde—so you can move through it with clarity, confidence, and intention.

By the end of the class, you'll be prepared to make this Mercury Retrograde your best ever!

Understanding the Retrograde Phases

Mercury Retrograde isn't just one period - it has three phases:

Pre-Shadow Phase

You may begin to feel subtle shifts. Themes start to emerge.

Retrograde Phase

The main period of reflection, delays, and revisiting the past.

Post-Shadow Phase
Integration and forward movement begin, with greater clarity.

Understanding these phases helps you work with the energy instead of feeling caught off guard.
