With Mercury still in retrograde, Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains how this impacts the week ahead
Last week initiated us into some big cosmic transits. Although we are still deep in eclipse season with Mercury in retrograde, this week brings a softer and quieter energy. Eclipses are significant times of karmic endings, new beginnings and fated changes, but Mercury retrograde could bring communication mishaps, technology issues and overall agitations. With both cosmic events coinciding, instead of doing more, the next few weeks call for inward reflections and gentle patience.
As Mars, the planet of drive and energy, comes into a harmonious dance with eccentric Uranus on April 29, we can expect pleasant surprises in our lives, the key is to keep following our natural motivation and what feels fun and exciting. You may feel motivated to initiate something new but don’t forget to stay open to any redirections that may appear.
When the Sun meets North Node in Taurus on April 25, this once-a-year transit wants us to take an honest look at our life purpose. If you have been holding back on living your truth in fear of losing “security and comfort”, now is the time to lay out a step-by-step plan of how to get closer to living the life of your dreams.
