Forecast Sep 5-18, 2022: Continua For Exploration

Mercury retrogrades are typically associated with review periods. Interestingly enough, the incoming one will be surrounded by several repeating aspects. Taken as a whole, the time to reconsider, revaluate and reinvent is at hand. Mercury's backwards trek begins on September 9th, when the planet of technology and communication will be at 8 degrees of Libra. That places Mercury at odds with expansive Jupiter, also currently retrograde. The two form exact oppositions on September 2nd and 18th, so prior to and during Mercury's retrograde. Enthusiastic, optimistic Jupiter has a tendency to over-promise. In impetuous Aries, its exuberance can hardly be contained. Exacerbating impulsiveness, Mars, the ruler of Aries, has recently arrived into talkative, ungrounded Gemini. In the early degrees of the mutable air sign, Mars has only egged Jupiter on.
