Mercury begins its retrograde motion this morning at 7:47 a.m. ET, and for the next three or so weeks, we might feel this slow us a bit as if we’re running in quicksand.  We may have felt these feelings building for a couple weeks, though, when Mercury began its slowdown, but now as we enter the retrograde period fully the process will be at the forefront of our attention.

Nevertheless, we can use the apparent retrograde motion productively, to rethink and review our plans thoroughly.  Be prepared for the possibility of breakdown in communication, but use all missteps to further re-examine our methods.

Meanwhile, Jupiter moves into Aries this evening to make its home there for approximately one year. It’s likely we will feel a surge of power and headstrong energy that helps us take charge and make positive strides.  Feeling a rush of self-reliance and initiative are hallmarks of this energy flow.

Meanwhile, the Virgo Moon finding some discomfort with Mercury, Venus and Pluto throughout the day could add some twists and turns colored with intensity.  But before midnight, an easy trine to Uranus generates fun and excitement that may prove to smooths over rough spots.
