Greetings and blessings!
Mercury retrograde has now cleared two degrees past its final exact square to Neptune, out of three total from May 18 to June 27.
Over the past 24-36 hours we have been actively integrating the message of this Mercury retrograde cycle for you. This is a time when we have “ah-ha” moments; when we can finally take a long look at what has transpired from about the middle of May with a fair bit of distance, now possessing the ability to take the long view.
We are having realizations and epiphanies. These epiphanies are now influenced by being in emotional integrity within our own inner space. This influence is due to Saturn having straddled the line between Sagittarius and Scorpio over the course of this second Mercury retrograde of the year. We started with a vision, and now need to *feel* emotionally aligned with the way we choose to think about the space in our lives where Mercury has been traveling.
The necessity for feeling profound emotional alignment also has to do with Mercury’s triple square action to Neptune over the course of its retrograde phase.
There is a need for incorporating both ambiguity and clarity, blurriness and precision, softness and sharpness into our outer and inner endeavors at this time.
If that all sounds familiar yet abstract to you, it would help to reflect on your life this past month or so and consider where you may have been vacillating between poles. I said this in a previous forecast, but it bears repeating that sometimes clarity is not always available, even when there might be a perceived need for immediate action or decision making. The sense of ambiguity does not preclude firm decisions, but it does require building in a bit of leeway with yourself and others. It is rare that an endeavor is carried out precisely as planned.
The square between Mercury and Neptune has happened in mutable signs, and so we recall the adage, blessed are the flexible for they will not be bent out of shape.
