A Surprisingly Fertile Time For Creativity

Hello friends,

Today I'd like to talk about how to make Mercury Retrograde your friend vs your foe. I'll outline key ways you can use its energy to your advantage. Continue reading for background.

Background

Mercury Retrograde, which lasts until March 20, is a key opportunity to turn inward—using the time to reassess, revisit, reconsider, and re-evaluate. To be sure, Mercury Retrograde is often associated with communication breakdowns—and also the need to rewrite, reschedule, or repair. This can be annoying, to say the least. Example: you told a friend you would meet somewhere at 1pm Thursday—they didn't show up, as they misinterpreted either the time or specific place you would meet.

A Fertile Time For Creativity

Despite the annoyances of Mercury Retrograde, this can be a surprisingly fertile time for creativity. I suggest using this time to review situations or relationships in your life—with the mindset that you can learn something new about yourself and where you are headed.

Ask For A Higher View

This means inviting your Higher Self guidance to reveal—in meditation or a dream—a situation that either hasn't worked out as envisioned or leaves you with a feeling that something is missing. This could be a relationship, a job, or a career move. As you ask, set the intention you will be open to seeing a creative way to look at things. If nothing comes to you right away—know that it is your "asking" that will help you connect dots. Then be open to when the creative ideas come—in that moment of asking, later the same day, or when you are in a situation that stirs your feeling that something is missing. Trust what you get.

Dive Deeper - Get Specific

Since Retrogrades are perfect for introspection, review past decisions you made and invite a new way to look at them. Examples:

• You decided some time ago that you would construct your new house based on the architect’s suggestion—as you review the plans, you realize you left out a key component.
• A key romantic relationship you thought was "over"—as you rethink things, you change your mind.
• A work promotion or appointment you decided was "out of reach"—as you re-evaluate things, now seems possible.
• The self-image you thought was "you"—as you rethink things, now appears to be simply what your parents taught you.

Your Divine Changemaker Role

Let's remember that we, as Divine Changemakers, are alive now to be at the forefront of change. While it's often not easy to be here, with all of the chaos and uncertainty, we long prepared for these times of mega change.

If you sense you are moving through accelerated change, or feeling things more intensely than usual, this can be a time when deeper personal insight is helpful. I offer private 1-on-1 deeper work sessions for those who want support in understanding what is shifting internally and how to move forward with clarity.

Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or feedback you have. Thank you for letting your friends know about my work!

Wishing you love and blessings,
