Meaning of the 6 Planets Retrograde
What these retrograde periods mean for each zodiac sign is important as we endure the unusual patterns that are everywhere. From the sky, the waters, animals, and humans, there are changes taking place that are undeniable.
The combined energy of these 6 planets is driving change, and you get to choose which you prefer. The old cycles that brought joy, laughter, and, for many, repeating patterns that made you look at your life – yourself.
If you’ve ever made the statement, “that’s it, or I am done,” then chances are you’re feeling the planets arguing in the background of everyday life. Awareness heightens as the reality of people around you shows their true nature, and it could be cumbersome.
What To Avoid
- Starting new relationships or rushing into high-stakes financial commitments.
- Making drastic appearance changes until the 14th or after the post-retrograde period.
- Allowing an ex back in your life without verifying they have changed why you left in the first place.
Be aware, anything we start, purchase, or sign may have hidden elements in that can quickly unravel once this planet goes direct. If you can’t wait, make sure to carefully read the details – the fine print.
Note: As the author of this article, I’ve been watching and recording what happens when these planets go retrograde vs direct. I can honestly say, the tips are something to consider as I’ve seen relationships abruptly end, their ex was still in the picture, mechanics will malfunction. Electrical and technical issues will happen. Paying close attention is always advisable.
6 Planets Retrograde
Last week, the cosmos or Universe was testing each person to look back on something that returned. Not to make a decision, but to reflect. This week’s energy will be testing if you will actually accept it or not. With the Ace of Swords in the weekly mix, combining these 6 retrograde planets, the outcome will last for another 9-10 year cycle or longer.
These retrograde planets not only create chaos, but also confusion. For example, Venus retrograde will have love on the brain and hearts pounding with thoughts of the one that got away. Meanwhile, others will be remembering the reason the relationship did not work and how challenging it was to walk away.
Either way, a warm, friendly smile doesn’t mean they love you, but your intuition is the key factor to knowing the difference. Waiting until the planet goes direct will help bring the answer that is truly aligned with the inner connection of self and the person involved.
How to Work Through The Energy Shifts
There will be a feeling of isolation, but this time, not necessarily to avoid anyone intentionally, but rather to focus on the plans you’ve been working on to start your life in a new direction.
Enhancing skills, thinking, and behavioral patterns begins with pen and paper, writing them down over the next 30 days.
You will find many changes that shift when each of these planets taps you on the shoulder with a question: Do you really want them, or are you ready?
