Mercury officially went retrograde today at 12:56 AM, and we're already feeling the cosmic hiccups! Technology glitches, communication mix-ups, and general wonkiness are making themselves known, but there's no need to panic. This retrograde period isn't something to fear but rather a natural pause in our cosmic breathing cycle – a chance to reflect, revise, and recalibrate.

Today's astral landscape features the Moon in conservative Taurus forming a challenging square with transformative Pluto in Aquarius. This combination explains the shaky markets, dipping confidence, and general sense of uncertainty we're experiencing. Yet amid the retrograde chaos, a beautiful Mercury sextile offers a silver lining for relationships – just remember that actions speak louder than words right now. When Mercury tangles our verbal expressions, showing how we feel becomes infinitely more powerful than trying to explain it.

As the Sun prepares to leave Cancer and enter Leo, we're reminded that changing course during Mercury retrograde creates unnecessary complications. The message or path you're currently on is already forming – this isn't the time to reinvent it, but rather to refine how you deliver it. Mercury and Venus are attempting to "make a deal" that can't quite come together now, but will have a second chance once Mercury goes direct again. The universe knows there's a spectacular plan unfolding that we can't yet fully comprehend. Our job is simply to navigate this cosmic pause with patience, knowing that clarity awaits on the other side. The keyword for today is "less" with jade as our guiding color. How will you use this retrograde period to revisit what truly matters?
