How To Thrive During Mercury Retrograde with Black Tourmaline 🖤 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This Mercury Retrograde happening on Sept 9-Oct 2 will start in the sign of Libra & back pedal into Virgo. Mercury Rx brings specific things to our awareness for a divine & higher reason. The misunderstandings, miscommunications, & misalignments are highly significant and a part of a much bigger sacred plan - that usually becomes clear towards the end of the retrograde. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Mercury Rx in Libra shines a spotlight on our relationships, our connections to others - any unbalances, giving too much or too little, people pleasing, and how we are choosing to connect and communicate these things with others. I foresee some big relationship shifts, people from the past resurfacing to tie loose ends, secrets exposed and truths revealed. Use this time to connect within & make Mercury Rx work for you instead of against you. Get comfortable with uncertainty & things not going as planned. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There will be a lot of chaotic energy and I invite you to stay flexible, allow extra time for travel, avoid launching any new projects, or signing any contracts if possible. Unless your intentions are super clear only then would I suggest moving forward with these things. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Black Tourmaline has a calming effect when needed, grounding flighty or scattered energies into the earth. Carry Black Tourmaline in your pocket when traveling to help balance, harmonize, & protect all of the Chakras. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Black Tourmaline will take your negative anxious energy and turn it into positive energy with a lighter vibration. Associated with the root chakra, Black Tourmaline is also a very protective stone which repels & blocks negative energies & psychic attack. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The only thing constant in life is change, so instead of having anxiety about what's going to happen next, try surrendering to the unknown and embracing change. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ All of our crystals are sourced & energetically charged with love & light by myself.
