Speaker 1: This is Astrology Coach. It's your planetary update for the
Speaker 1: week of January sixteenth. Don't forget there's a personal Taro
Speaker 1: reading for you at the end of this episode. But first,
Speaker 1: what's in store for you this week With astrologer Natasha Weber.
Speaker 2: I have great news from the cosmos. Mercury's retrograde comes
Speaker 2: to a grinding halt on Thursday. The communication planet has
Speaker 2: been sliding backwards through Capricorn since December twenty nine, causing frustrations,
Speaker 2: hold ups, and verbal slip ups. And this retrograde might
Speaker 2: have poked your personal and professional aspirations. Maybe you found
Speaker 2: yourself reflecting on where you're at and where you're headed,
Speaker 2: and that kind of introspection isn't really a bad thing.
Speaker 2: Sometimes we need to slow down to figure out what
Speaker 2: we actually want. So once Mercury moves forward on Thursday,
Speaker 2: its positive influence builds gradually, because after a planet ditches
Speaker 2: its retrograde, it can take about two weeks for the
Speaker 2: lessons learned to kick in, so I thought it might
Speaker 2: be helpful to highlight some key areas where each sign
Speaker 2: can expect progress. Once Mercury's reversal is done and dusted
Speaker 2: and As always, please listen out for your sun's sign
Speaker 2: as well as your rising sign if you know it.
Speaker 2: So let's start with aries. Mercury's forward motion reinvigorates your ambitions.
Speaker 2: If you've felt a bit lost or directionless, this cosmic
Speaker 2: shift will clarify your goals. For Torreans, you start thinking
Speaker 2: about journeying abroad. It's a winning idea. Book your flight
Speaker 2: after Thursday. Geminis might have been holding off from feeling
Speaker 2: a financial deal or entering a partnership romantic or otherwise.
Speaker 2: Consider this the sign you've been waiting for to move
Speaker 2: ahead to the cancer crabs. Mercury reversed through your relationship sector,
Speaker 2: so this forward motion could smash through a love roadblock
Speaker 2: or a communications stalemate. Leo's luck is about to turn.
Speaker 2: If you've had trouble with your health goals, get your
Speaker 2: sweat on after Thursday, and don't forget to get any
Speaker 2: niggling health issues checked out asap. Both single and paired
Speaker 2: up virgos have faced a big question this retrograde, what
Speaker 2: do you want from love? You might begin a new
Speaker 2: relationship chapter or conquer a creative block. Good news for
Speaker 2: librins issues or frustrations around the home should begin to ease.
Speaker 2: If a family squabble ruffled your feathers, mercury shift initiates
Speaker 2: a healing conversation. Scorpios will get the chance to clear
Speaker 2: the air after Mercury's rewind through your communication sector, which
Speaker 2: explains why your intentions might have been lost in translation lately.
Speaker 2: Cash flow eases for Sagittarians once Mercury gets moving. If
Speaker 2: you've had an epiphany on how to grow your money tree,
Speaker 2: act on it. After Thursday, Capricorn, you're desperate to sprint ahead,
Speaker 2: but something's holding you back. Rest assured you'll come unstuck
Speaker 2: After Thursday. Goats wanting a makeover should wait until week's
Speaker 2: end and then go for it. Mercury's retrograde sparked Aquarium's
Speaker 2: curiosity in the mystical realm. I mean, hey, you're listening
Speaker 2: to this astrology podcast. Now it's time to dig even
Speaker 2: deeper into the spiritual space. And lastly, Pisces, have you
Speaker 2: been ruminating over a friendship inventory or culing your business connections?
Speaker 2: If so, Mercury's forward flow promises healthier platonic real life relationships.
Speaker 2: So that wraps up the first of four Mercury retrogrades
Speaker 2: all in Earth signs in twenty twenty three, with the
Speaker 2: exception of December when Mercury steps back through Sagittarius in
Speaker 2: the tail end of its retrograde, but this one does
Speaker 2: start off in earthy Capricorn. Thankfully, Mercury promises progress, and
Speaker 2: if you're willing to learn from the lessons that surface
Speaker 2: during Mercury's retrograde, a mega strideforward can be yours for
Speaker 2: the taking.
Speaker 1: So how does this week's cosmic climate affect you? Tarot
Speaker 1: can help with that, and after this, your card will
Speaker 1: choose you. Make sure you follow Astrology Coach in your
