Circle Back this Retrograde
As many of my closest friends know, I am a huge fan of Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who had a birthday this past week (fellow fabulous Cancerian… as my birthday is tomorrow).
In one interview, they asked what her favorite Americanism is. She said, “Let’s circle back”.
I had not known that this was a unique phrase to the US at the time, and her acknowledgement made me think more about this concept and the power of suggesting it at the right time.
This week ahead is the final week in this round of Mercury Retrograde. While many abhor these 3 week phases, they can be beneficial to engage with purposefully.
My favorite astrologer friend, Heather Harris says, ‘Mercury Retrogrades are all about the RE. Take time to re-turn, re-commit, re-consider, etc.’
This week, I ask you to ponder on something that you would do well to circle back on.
So many times we put off something and plan to return to it later, but then never come around to it.
What is one thing that you put on the shelf that is getting dusty and needs re-engaged with?
Perhaps a friendship faced a challenge that is worth breaching the conversation about?
Maybe there is a project you meant to finish before the swirl of summer swept you away from it?
Think about a self-growth action that you can step back into better practice with yet again.
Are there any inner evolutionary shifts that have been left in a state of limbo? Is now a good time to choose one to step forward back into them?
Give yourself a few minutes to look away from the device you are reading this on and stare at the ceiling and sit with your answer.
After your pause. Return here.
Is there is a flush of guilt for ‘failing’ to complete this before today? Phew, take a breath and remember that this week ahead is the next best time to take action on it.
If there is an overwhelm of ideas or paths to take, narrow down your plans to the most simple and minor next step in the most accessible option.
Being Mercury Retrograde, you have a whole week before you must take action. For now, reconfigure your next best steps and notice the blocks halting you in your plans.
This weekend, call in the energy of release from any anxiety around this and trust yourself to begin the process forward again.
If you need some divination motivation, sign up with me for a personal tarot reading.
Ask the cards and find your own answers after a solid tarot reading lesson.
Bring a compassionate friend to share your foibles with in a Tarot Together session.
If a celebration is the venture you are ready to embark on, remember to hire a tarot or palm reader from Portlandia Fortune Tellers for the party.
I hope you enjoy finding your center as you circle back on what is important to you this week.
Enjoy Renewal,
