Not only are we in the Last Quarter Moon in this cycle, Mercury has gone into retrograde until the 25th April. Mercury retrograde is an optical illusion that happens when the planet Mercury appears to move backward in the sky when Earth's orbit aligns with and overtakes Mercury's orbit.

 

Mercury Retrograde has got a bit of a rep for disrupting our lives, breaking down technology and making miscommunication common. Retrograde is not to be feared though, as always we can utilise the energy to our advantage, we just have to work with it rather than against it. Use this time to slow down, reflect and review and be mindful. 

 

Take some time out to slow down and prioritise self-care. Why not book yourself in for a massage or reiki (or even better both). 

 

Sacred Roots offer an amazing combo of both which can leave you feeling relaxed, balance and ready to take on whatever the retrograde may throw at you.
