July 26, 2022: Mercury Square Mars — Ruby Slipper Astrology

Mercury square Mars can manifest as arguments or conflicts between words and actions. Tension tempts you to prove a point or do something, but there will be obstacles.

This is happening in fixed signals, so you will find that the harder you push / the more you insist that you are right, the higher the resistance. It can be helpful to take a step back and reevaluate efforts- Mercury in Leo speaks from a place of ego so the struggle for attention can cause problems. Pride can keep you from seeing an alternative perspective. Or, pride may prompt you to declare something out loud – make sure you’re speaking your truth before repeating. Sometimes you have to struggle to be heard and this can be one of those times. But sometimes it’s better to keep quiet and reconsider your reasoning.

When you encounter resistance, consider how you can use pressure constructively.

This aspect is a lead-up for the July 31-1 August Mars/Uranus/North Node conjunction as Mercury will move into the square of Uranus and the Nodes from July 28-29. Your attention is being drawn to a tense turn that will forcefully redirect you when needed. Now is the time to think about what needs to change so that you can move on. What is this argument or struggle to align words with what you actually say about your future?

Scorpio daily horoscope – 31 May 2022

The energy around you is in tune with a lot of emotions and it’s all for the power of tomorrow’s new moon, and it will continue to act on you and affect your emotions and your heartbeat in the weeks to come. You have a remarkable ability, in the best of times, to pluck the depths of your and other people’s feelings. But still more because of the intensity of what is happening internally and externally. If your emotions are telling you that you feel that way, there’s no such thing as too intense for you today, but you can still keep a lid on it if you have to. What superpower is your moon revealing?

Witch Tips and Horoscope 9/28-10/4/2022 — The Hoodwich

Mercury has entered its shadow zone on the 25th of Virgo – to look back and complete our transformation into Libra and Virgo

The shadow region is defined by the period where a planet turns retrograde, and where it goes directly after the retrograde period. In this case, Mercury turns retrograde on 9th September into Libra. It will retrograde back to the 25th of Virgo, where it stabilizes directly on 2nd October, the birthdays of Mahatma Gandhi and Groucho Marx. It casts a shadow zone between 25 Virgo and 9 Libra, and on August 21 Mercury enters 25 Virgo, the degree where it will go SD in early October. I will be writing some articles about the upcoming retrograde which will be posted as we get closer. So now we begin an 8-week round of three phases on the first 9 degrees of Libra and the last 6 degrees of Virgo. We will have old Virgo and Libra returns related to people and events that affected our lives in the past. It would be “looking back” in memory of past work and partners, past service and the people we once looked up to as equals. It brings up memories of former Virgo and Libra experiences so that...
