Week of July 28, 2025 — Mercury Retrograde in Focus

As Mercury moves retrograde and the Moon travels through Virgo and then Libra, communication and clarity are front and center. This is not a time for assumptions. Even the simplest plans—like meeting someone—need specifics. Is it 4th Avenue or 4th Street? Slow down. Confirm. Listen not just with your ears, but with your gut.

Mercury retrograde urges us to revisit how we convey and receive messages—whether that’s words, intuition, or unspoken energy. There’s a tendency these days to bypass depth with shorthand and soundbites. But we’re being asked to pause, reflect, and get underneath the surface.

When delays or detours happen—and they likely will—try not to see them as obstacles. Instead, ask: what’s being cleared out to make room for something better? That missed bus or rescheduled meeting might be redirecting you toward a more aligned path.

Monday (Moon in Virgo): Frustrations may bubble up—people are impatient, details feel heavy. Double-check everything. The Moon goes void at 8:57 PM (ET), ideal for editing, organizing, and reviewing.

Tuesday (Moon enters Libra at 1:43 AM): Prioritize. This day can feel scattered, especially if you’re overwhelmed with options. Focus on your real goal and avoid distractions. Communications are rich but can be confusing—clarity is key.

Wednesday (Moon void all day in Libra): Beautiful for inner work, soulful connections, and artistic or philosophical pursuits. Not ideal for launching or signing agreements. With Chiron stationing retrograde, deep emotional themes around healing and self-perception surface. Be gentle. Explore. Feel. Don’t rush.

Thursday (Moon enters Scorpio at 1:25 PM): Now’s the time to confront what surfaced on Wednesday. Dive deep. Scorpio energy supports transformation—particularly for artists, healers, and those brave enough to face the shadows. Evening may bring tension—internal or external—but this can also clarify what needs to change.

Friday, August 1: A powerhouse day for progress, especially on ongoing projects. Mercury retrograde continues to ask for edits and refinements, not launches. Clarity increases through evening.

Saturday (Moon void from 9:07 PM): Another productive day—use it to solidify progress. Once the Moon goes void, wind down with restorative activities.

Sunday (Moon enters Sagittarius at 2:00 AM): Lift your gaze. Explore. Be in nature, or let your mind roam wide. Ideal for expanding your view, planting seeds of vision, and embracing possibility. Build in space for adjustments, but keep moving forward.
