But This One Might Just Be The Reset You Needed 💥🌀
You’ve probably heard all the usual things about Mercury Retrograde: don’t sign contracts, expect tech glitches, miscommunications, exes popping up, blah blah blah. But this retrograde isn’t here to ruin your life. It’s here to slow you down long enough so you can hear your damn self again.
Right now we are officially in the pre-shadow of Mercury Retrograde 💫 It officially goes retrograde on July 17, 2025, and lasts until August 10, 2025. That means now through mid-August, we’re getting a full-blown cosmic review. Don’t ignore it. Use it.
This Mercury Retrograde is in Leo …bold, loud, heart-centered Leo ♌️ And Leo wants you to stop living for the world and start living for your soul. So before you go blaming this retrograde for your phone acting up, ask yourself... when was the last time you listened to your own inner fire?
Retrograde periods are reflection portals. They're not punishment. They’re divine check-ins. And if you’ve been stalling, hiding, playing small, or ignoring your purpose, Mercury in Leo will not let you stay in that energy.
So what can it help you with?
✨ Rewriting your self-expression ✨ Reclaiming your creativity ✨ Fixing mindset leaks that kill your confidence ✨ Getting clear on your real voice, not your trauma voice ✨ Healing how you see yourself and how you let yourself be seen
Yup... visibility wounds, heart chakra blocks, fear of being too much — all of it might come up. But it’s not coming up to break you. It’s showing up so you can finally choose a different version of you.
Here’s what you can expect based on your rising sign:
🔥 Aries Rising — Mercury will move through your 5th House. Expect old ideas, creative projects, or even love interests to come back up. Heal your inner child wounds around being seen and appreciated. This is your time to reclaim your joy.
🏡 Taurus Rising — This lights up your 4th House. Family stuff, emotional triggers, or home-based healing may surface. Clean the energy in your space. Reconnect with what safety really feels like to you.
🗣️ Gemini Rising — 3rd House activation. Your words, thoughts, and local environment need a reset. Be mindful of what you say and who you give your energy to. Rework your content or writing projects.
💰 Cancer Rising — 2nd House is lit. Time to revisit money beliefs, self-worth stories, and the way you’ve been earning. This retrograde is asking: do you really feel worthy of what you want?
👑 Leo Rising — This hits your 1st House. Identity crisis, much? Old versions of you may try to resurface. Your job is to be the YOU you actually are now. Let yourself evolve. People might not get it... do it anyway.
🧘♀️ Virgo Rising — 12th House energy. You might feel tired, emotional, or deeply introspective. This is a spiritual purge. Take time to rest, journal, and connect with your higher self. Shadow work is your best friend.
👯 Libra Rising — Mercury moves through your 11th House. Old friendships, social circles, or online visibility wounds might reappear. Realign with your tribe. Let go of trying to fit in.
🎯 Scorpio Rising — 10th House spotlight. Career path reflection. Are you being seen the way you want to be seen? Do your goals still feel aligned? This is your chance to shift direction if needed.
🌍 Sagittarius Rising — 9th House retrograde. Time to reevaluate your beliefs, spiritual practices, and long-term vision. You might return to a course, teacher, or philosophy. Upgrade your worldview.
💸 Capricorn Rising — 8th House intensity. Financial entanglements, intimacy fears, or energetic ties may be highlighted. Clear old debts and cut cords. Reclaim your power.
💞 Aquarius Rising — 7th House zone. Partnerships and agreements are under review. That includes romantic, business, or even contracts with yourself. Be clear about what you truly want.
🧹 Pisces Rising — Mercury moves through your 6th House. Work habits, routines, and your health might need a second look. If you’ve been overgiving or self-neglecting, this retrograde is calling you out.
No matter what sign you are… you’re being asked to pause, reflect, and stop dimming your fire just to keep things smooth 🔥✨
Use this time to: 🔹 Revisit your visibility blocks 🔹 Rewrite the story you’ve been telling yourself 🔹 Let your future self guide your current moves
