WEBVTT - WEEK AHEAD 🪐 What lessons has mercury retrograde taught you?

0:00:08.840 --> 0:00:12.680
<v Speaker 1>This is Astrology Coach. It's your planetary update for the

0:00:12.720 --> 0:00:17.280
<v Speaker 1>week of January sixteenth. Don't forget there's a personal Taro

0:00:17.360 --> 0:00:21.320
<v Speaker 1>reading for you at the end of this episode. But first,

0:00:21.800 --> 0:00:25.480
<v Speaker 1>what's in store for you this week With astrologer Natasha Weber.

0:00:28.600 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 2>I have great news from the cosmos. Mercury's retrograde comes

0:00:33.080 --> 0:00:37.319
<v Speaker 2>to a grinding halt on Thursday. The communication planet has

0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:43.160
<v Speaker 2>been sliding backwards through Capricorn since December twenty nine, causing frustrations,

0:00:43.240 --> 0:00:47.120
<v Speaker 2>hold ups, and verbal slip ups. And this retrograde might

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:51.880
<v Speaker 2>have poked your personal and professional aspirations. Maybe you found

0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:54.840
<v Speaker 2>yourself reflecting on where you're at and where you're headed,

0:00:55.800 --> 0:00:58.680
<v Speaker 2>and that kind of introspection isn't really a bad thing.

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes we need to slow down to figure out what

0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:06.960
<v Speaker 2>we actually want. So once Mercury moves forward on Thursday,

0:01:07.400 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 2>its positive influence builds gradually, because after a planet ditches

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 2>its retrograde, it can take about two weeks for the

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:19.479
<v Speaker 2>lessons learned to kick in, so I thought it might

0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:23.119
<v Speaker 2>be helpful to highlight some key areas where each sign

0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:27.880
<v Speaker 2>can expect progress. Once Mercury's reversal is done and dusted

0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:31.720
<v Speaker 2>and As always, please listen out for your sun's sign

0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:34.520
<v Speaker 2>as well as your rising sign if you know it.

0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:41.520
<v Speaker 2>So let's start with aries. Mercury's forward motion reinvigorates your ambitions.

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:45.720
<v Speaker 2>If you've felt a bit lost or directionless, this cosmic

0:01:45.760 --> 0:01:51.000
<v Speaker 2>shift will clarify your goals. For Torreans, you start thinking

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:55.520
<v Speaker 2>about journeying abroad. It's a winning idea. Book your flight

0:01:55.720 --> 0:02:00.280
<v Speaker 2>after Thursday. Geminis might have been holding off from feeling

0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:04.760
<v Speaker 2>a financial deal or entering a partnership romantic or otherwise.

0:02:05.480 --> 0:02:08.320
<v Speaker 2>Consider this the sign you've been waiting for to move

0:02:08.360 --> 0:02:14.240
<v Speaker 2>ahead to the cancer crabs. Mercury reversed through your relationship sector,

0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:18.360
<v Speaker 2>so this forward motion could smash through a love roadblock

0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:24.400
<v Speaker 2>or a communications stalemate. Leo's luck is about to turn.

0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:27.400
<v Speaker 2>If you've had trouble with your health goals, get your

0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:30.679
<v Speaker 2>sweat on after Thursday, and don't forget to get any

0:02:30.760 --> 0:02:36.240
<v Speaker 2>niggling health issues checked out asap. Both single and paired

0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:40.239
<v Speaker 2>up virgos have faced a big question this retrograde, what

0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:43.640
<v Speaker 2>do you want from love? You might begin a new

0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:48.840
<v Speaker 2>relationship chapter or conquer a creative block. Good news for

0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:53.200
<v Speaker 2>librins issues or frustrations around the home should begin to ease.

0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:58.359
<v Speaker 2>If a family squabble ruffled your feathers, mercury shift initiates

0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 2>a healing conversation. Scorpios will get the chance to clear

0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:06.840
<v Speaker 2>the air after Mercury's rewind through your communication sector, which

0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 2>explains why your intentions might have been lost in translation lately.

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:16.560
<v Speaker 2>Cash flow eases for Sagittarians once Mercury gets moving. If

0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:19.160
<v Speaker 2>you've had an epiphany on how to grow your money tree,

0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:24.720
<v Speaker 2>act on it. After Thursday, Capricorn, you're desperate to sprint ahead,

0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:28.560
<v Speaker 2>but something's holding you back. Rest assured you'll come unstuck

0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:33.160
<v Speaker 2>After Thursday. Goats wanting a makeover should wait until week's

0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:37.560
<v Speaker 2>end and then go for it. Mercury's retrograde sparked Aquarium's

0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:41.520
<v Speaker 2>curiosity in the mystical realm. I mean, hey, you're listening

0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:45.760
<v Speaker 2>to this astrology podcast. Now it's time to dig even

0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:50.880
<v Speaker 2>deeper into the spiritual space. And lastly, Pisces, have you

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:55.320
<v Speaker 2>been ruminating over a friendship inventory or culing your business connections?

0:03:56.080 --> 0:04:00.720
<v Speaker 2>If so, Mercury's forward flow promises healthier platonic real life relationships.

0:04:02.240 --> 0:04:05.720
<v Speaker 2>So that wraps up the first of four Mercury retrogrades

0:04:06.000 --> 0:04:09.400
<v Speaker 2>all in Earth signs in twenty twenty three, with the

0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:13.360
<v Speaker 2>exception of December when Mercury steps back through Sagittarius in

0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 2>the tail end of its retrograde, but this one does

0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:22.479
<v Speaker 2>start off in earthy Capricorn. Thankfully, Mercury promises progress, and

0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:25.160

0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:29.800
