Venus Conjunct Mercury (still retrograde)

This week, we are talking about relationships, art, collaborations, and what our needs in connections with others are.

Mercury (still retrograde) conjoined with Chiron on Monday, which had our conversations circle back to something that is sensitive or something that hurts. Tomorrow, Venus and Mercury meet up, which creates a balm for the wound and sweet words to soothe any remaining tensions or anxieties.

Mercury-Venus may also just have you busy buzzing around to different social groups, catching up with old & new friends, & getting your flirt on!

Venus is the goddess of love & connection, you see.

Mercury retrogrades are time for reflecting. This time, we are reflecting on Venus-in-Aries themes (which means, doing Venus boldly and loudly).

It is a good time to courageously:

-write anything artful or beautiful such as poetry, songs, or stories

-collaborate/work with others/network

-think about and communicate your values and needs in relationships

-think about how you want to spend, use, or save your money

-reflect on what’s beautiful, attractive, enjoyable, sensual, connective, & on what brings joy

It’s likely taking risks in these departments will pay off as Jupiter, planet of abundance, meets up with Uranus, planet of our-of-the-box thinking by the end of the week.

More on that later.
