If you’re hoping for smooth sailing this month, take a deep breath 🌬️ and buckle up 🎢 because sometimes the skies might get a bit tumultuous. But don’t worry because there’s good news in the twists and turns of the August sky 🌟
As last week’s newsletter mentioned, we’re smack dab in the middle of Mercury Retrograde, which lasts until August 28. While the term “Mercury Retrograde” might make some of us a little anxious, it’s important to remember that this period can also bring about positive changes. Sure, there might be some communication and scheduling hiccups, but if you stay open to changes and express yourself clearly, you’ll navigate this period gracefully.
Use this time to reflect and realign. It’s a period ripe with possibilities for deep introspection and thoughtful consideration of your life’s direction.
