This Weeks Energy

If you’ve been feeling a little out of sorts lately, it could be because there is a lot going on energetically this week. We have Mercury stationing retrograde on the 18th, the Summer Solstice on the 20th and we finish the week with the Dark Moon Eclipse on Saturday. Within these three events there is a great deal of energy wanting us to move forward as well as communication issues which might create problems. The challenge will be to do our best in situations as they come. 

Everyone is familiar with retrograde cycles. The month of June has two planets going into retrograde this month, Mercury and Neptune. The first energetic event happening this week has been building for a couple weeks. Mercury entered its shadow phase around June 2nd. From there all things communication gradually wind down until it stations retrograde. This will happen on the 18th of this week and remain there until July 12 when Mercury will station direct as It moves through the shadow phase again to its full, normal state.  

Retrograde cycles are opportunities to go within to see where and how changes can be made to benefit our lives. This Mercury Retrograde is happening in Cancer which puts emphasis on our self-talk. Be aware of what you say and how you say it during this time. Then make the changes needed. 

The Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year and brings back the male energy, the end of spring and the beginning of Summer. This energy is about abundance that encourages us to embrace life in all its fullness.  The seeds we planted in the preceding months are growing, so embrace the fullness! 

The very next day is the Dark Moon Eclipse. Both the Dark Moon and an Eclipse is all about endings and beginnings. Combine them and the energy has unstoppable potential. This energy encourages us to release any old habits, thoughts and belief systems holding us back. Be willing to do the work and open to your new beginning. Follow your heart, let go and move toward your future. 

There is so much energy in the air this week. Take advantage of it! 

Blessed Be ❤ Sharon
