Mercury Retrograde Continues: Thoughtforms Shine in the Dark

As we continue to accompany the journey of Mercury backwards through the Zodiac, on Thursday afternoon there comes an exact conjunction with the radiant Gemini Sun, in almost perfect timing with the difficult and thought-provoking Last Quarter Moon. This can be an important moment in the course of the retrograde period of Mercury, a peak of the wayward energy of missed connections and mechanical breakdown. These kinds of misadventures naturally have their difficulties to be worked though, and yet can however be ultimately rewarding in terms of new realizations. This is actually an important moment for reflection and introspection, a good time to take stock on your life in general. It is possible that the clear and rejuvenating energies of the conscious Sun could provide a beam of bright light to shine through the overgrown and canopied forest of your mind. Even if you are stymied in outer forms, there is great progress to be made now in inner worlds that you have still to fully understand. As you cut your way through the dense undergrowth of old beliefs, judgments, and any other thought forms that are in need of a good trimming, you allow for new growth, and a rebirth of more robust mental health that follows by mid-July.
