The year’s third Mercury retrograde will begin on September 9th and will end on October 2nd.
The Retrograde will start in airy Libra, but Mercury will return to earth Virgo on September 23rd.
During the retrograde’s time in Libra, themes related to relationships and our connection with those around us can surface. During the Virgo part, themes associated with health and balance between work and life can surface.
The Natural Cosmic Rhythm That Is A Mercury Retrograde
Mercury is believed to be God’s messengers. According to ancient astrology, Mercury enters the underworld during a retrograde. As a result, our intuition and subconscious mind would be heightened, resulting in forgotten, hidden, or lost messages resurfacing.
This is a period when our energy becomes internal, letting us delve inside ourselves and hear our inner world instead of the external world’s voices. It is also a reflection on the past as we prepare to proceed forwards.
Since Mercury rules over travel, technology, communication, and thoughts, the retrograde period can, at times, cause issues in these spheres of life. They are not uncommon by any means, however, if they happen during this period, it is believed to be the Universe sending a message.
Dealing With The Mercury Retrograde Energy
A lot of people find themselves feeling sluggish, confused, and mentally confused during a Mercury retrograde. As our mind’s ruler is Mercury, the shift in energy to a more internal state can be challenging because it might leave us confused about our next step. However, this is the path to growth as our mind’s dimensions become modified and awakened through these obstacles.
If you feel scattered, lethargic, or foggy during this period, the best medicine will be to withdraw your energy within yourself. This means giving yourself space and time to self-reflect and retrospect on the past. Usually, clarity should arise once the retrograde ends. This will also be an ideal time for dream work.
Clarity might also come on September 22nd, when Mercury and the Sun become aligned. This alignment is believed to mark the rebirth of Mercury and give rise to new wisdom, insight, and clarity about Mercury’s messages.
The Upcoming 2022 September-October Mercury Retrograde
The upcoming Mercury retrograde will also take place a day before the Full Moon in Pisces. Pisces energy may be thought of as music since it has a rhythmical and harmonic flow. It does not have any form, but it can inspire movement, healing, and heightened emotions.
This energy can inspire our energy to flow as well. However, with Mercury’s scattering effect, we might feel a bit directionless, unconfident, or uncertain about the way to progress. If you feel like this, then try to find the flow and let it carry you. Fighting it is unnecessary.
Letting yourself go with the flow can let things reveal themselves. This passive state cannot always be our modus operandi. However, this sequence of astrological transit is our pass for this time.
Mercury Retrograde In Libra + Virgo
Mercury will backspin through Libra from September 9th till September 22nd. During this time, our relationships might get the focus. Past relationships can make a reappearance, or we might feel like it is time to put a few relationships firmly behind us. We might also feel indecisive or confused about a particular relationship.
During its tenure in Virgo, from September 23rd till the end, we will be asked to find the motivation to carry on our daily duties. This will be especially important for the duties that are associated with our well-being and health.
This Mercury retrograde will end on October 2nd but it will not be until October 16th when it will be back at full strength. The next Mercury retrograde will start on December 29th, but the effects will be felt from December 12th.
