Empaths and Mercury Retrograde

I know that in the past I have equated Mercury Retrograde with a very tough time in people's experience (i.e., broken machinery, broken communication, risk of accidents, etc.), but now that we are in one, I am reminded of a very good thing that Mercury Retrograde represents.

I have noticed that I tend to get into my own energy, my own desires, my own "truth" when a retrograde hits. Things that I am usually in denial about when there is no retrograde: situations that I need to leave that no longer serve me, habits that no longer serve me, etc., tend to "hit" me square in the face during a retrograde. And it never ceases to amaze me how on target these realizations are when a retrograde hits. It is uncanny. And even tho it may take me MANY retrogrades to actually realize that it is time for me to change some things in my life that no longer serve me, eventually I DO get it!

So retrogrades, as empaths, I am finding, are times of serious soul searching to "fine tune" our life paths, and in that respect I am very grateful for them.

It is also a time where we are much more in tune with ourselves, rather than other people, which seriously can help us in times when we ARE overwhelmed with others' emotions.

So from now until September 12th, when it goes direct, I would like you all to stop and be mindful of what the universe may be telling you about your own life and what you might need to let go of, or what path perhaps you should be taking that you are not taking now. Journal if you can, and keep going back when each retrograde hits to see just how "right on" the messages you get are, and you will see tremendous progression in your life in time, as you learn to "soar"!!!
