  Astrologer Julie Simmons writes about THIS Mercury Retrograde...

  In Leo, Mercury asks us to consider the power of our creative fire, our passion to express ourselves as well as any insecurities or fears we might have of how others receive our creativity. If the measure of our creative expression is found in others, something is amiss.

  Consider Creation itself: the unlimited generosity of the way Life continues to flow onto the planet, even in times of distress. Babies of all species are born. Plants grow where and when they can, given half a chance. The Sun rises and the tides ebb and flow. Creation doesn’t stop. It gives fully and without restraint. Our alignment with this powerful energy is the consideration, not whether we should bother and definitely not if others will or won’t like it. (Virgo is where we edit that which we have created in Leo. A different process.) For now it is about Creation and the power of the heart to open the gates of love through what it creates. A good ruler loves and serves the people and helps them create a good world to live in for themselves and generations to come. Leo is all about the heart which some say is the ruler of the country of our body which is to say, our existence.

  At the start of the retrograde period on July 18^th Mercury will sextile Venus, encouraging us to keep a notebook or maybe a sketchbook handy during this period. Good ideas will be plentiful. At the end of this period, as it moves through the exiting shadow, on August 18^th Mercury will sextile Mars which appears to be a call to action.

  Mercury retrograde in Leo will come close to making trines to Saturn and Neptune as well as an opposition with Pluto. This suggests that taking the time to step back and reflect upon what and how the heart is called to offer will make a real difference to the quality and the power of your creativity. The midpoint of this particular retrograde period is July 31^st: A day to listen deeply to the longings of the heart. To let love tell you a thing or two.

  Warm regards,

  What is Mercury Retrograde? 

  On July 18th  Mercury does the thing where it looks like it's going backwards" and can create a little havoc in our lives. Oh the stories about Mercury in retrograde motion! This astrological influence affects all of us but those working in certain industries may feel it more… The work of writers, broadcasters, webmasters, publishers and lawyers alike may feel held hostage when the trickster god Mercury gets underfoot!

  So what is all the commotion about?

  The general Mercury retrograde story goes like this: When Mercury is retrograde it’s easy to miss the details;  to misunderstand what was said; to misread what was written; to get the dates wrong or to forget to show up. This is why the common advice is to refrain from signing contracts, making major commitments or undertaking major new endeavors.

  Still, life must go on, contracts must be signed, houses bought, marriages (heaven forefend!) made; babies born and so forth.  By aligning ourselves with the retrograde energy we can move through this period with a minimum of misery, a deepening of our connection to our soul and some really funny stories if we keep our sense of humor.

  You can decide to align with this energy and make it work in your favor.  Change your own holopattern  of energy for managing Mercury retrograde.

  Julie Simmons, Astrologer &  Carolyn Winter, Resonance Repatterning Practitioner combine their talents to provide a unique energy-healing-at-a-distance program.

  Carolyn Winter, uses the Resonance Repatterning (holographic repatterning)  method of energy work to create new patterns for living life with more energy, purpose and positive results. She also does energy work at a distance using holographic repatterning and online interactive formats for groups who have a shared topic.   Together with astrologer Julie Simmons, Carolyn repatterns our particular life circumstances and creates new patterns for the group to positively align with Mercury Retrograde.
