Mercury doesn’t care what you believe. Retro is symbolic, not causal.
Here’s the truth bomb: 🚀 Mercury is going to orbit the Sun whether you sage your apartment or laugh at horoscopes. It’s been doing laps for billions of years. It’s not waiting on your belief system.
👉🏼So what’s the point? Symbolism. 👈🏼
Retrograde is shorthand. A stopwatch. A reminder to pause, reflect, edit, retry. Sometimes a chore list. 🙄
Choose your own adventure: You can believe/not beleive, laugh/cry/yell/throw tomatoes at any or all of this. Planets don’t give AF. But you might.
TL;DRetro™
Mercury’s orbit is physics. Retrograde is a metaphor. Use it however helps you grow.
