So why does it feel like it is already here? The first retrograde of this year is from January 14- February 3.
This Mercury Retrograde starts off in Aquarius and is asking us to develop a detached perspective. Don’t take things personally. 99% of what other people say or do isn’t about YOU. It is a hard lesson to learn… but worth the time to master it. We are being reminded that in order to understand others we need to take a step back and see things from a different persecutive. Emotions are great, but heightened emotions don’t bring anything beneficial to the party.
Aquarius is an innovative sign and it is calling for us to think "outside the box" when it comes to issues that are popping up in our lives now. If something didn't work in the past, why would it suddenly work now? Try new approaches and don't get frustrated if things don't go your way. You're clever and driven AF, so if there isn't a clear path... make a new one! Get that metaphorical machete in your hand and start clearing a way forward.
This retrograde period may have us itching for change or dealing with unexpected events. Our personal relationsips might start off with a bang, or have unexpected things pop up. Tomorrow is a day to pay attention to what comes up, conversations you have, or themes that arise. Don’t be surprised if you have a sudden change of heart or thought. There will be plenty of mental breakthroughs and "ah-ha!"moments galore.
Tomorrow, and really all of the next two weeks, will be a time for you to master control of yourself. Reflect before you react. Think before you speak. Get a higher perspective before you weigh in. You might feel triggered or pushed into "flight or fight" mode, but these two weeks are an intensive time for you to focus on being mindfully present and taking the higher road. Kindess and understanding will go a long way too.
If you are feeling stressed or need some grounding, as a reiki master I have created this reiki energy healing video to help bring stability and calm. The 432 frequency gives a person a strong relaxation sense. A 432 Hz frequency music ensures the brain is tuned to the earth frequency. The frequency will resonate inside a person’s body, thereby releasing any emotional blockage and align the person with the universe’s heartbeat. The 432 frequency music heightens perception, increases the mental clarity of a person and unlocks intuition.

I will continue to post tips and information in the blog during this retrograde, but just remember:
*Review
*Reflect
*Re-check (everything!)
*Don't text your ex
You got this.
