4/23/23 ✨ Mercury Retrograde Sextile Mars
✨ Happy SUN Day!
SUN IN TAURUS | MOON IN GEMINI
AFFIRMATION OF THE DAY: I can find love in the past, present, and future.
🪐 MAJOR TRANSITS:
♉️ MERCURY RX SEXTILE ♋️ MARS (14º) 8:18 PM PT
Mercury Retrograde revisits a sextile to Mars, bringing a surge of mental energy. This is a chance to review any ideas or actions from early April. We could experience a late-night influx of ideas or a boost of courage to speak our mind- but watch your words- it’s easy to be misunderstood or come across as harsh. Conversations could be emotionally driven, but Mercury in Taurus can keep us rooted in reality.
Mercury and Mars made this same connection on April 7. Conversations or ideas from that transit could be revisited now.

THE MOON:
🌒 WAXING CRESCENT MOON IN GEMINI ♊️
The waxing moon in Gemini makes for a social weekend. Our mind can be an effective tool to process our emotions. Self reflection can come in the form of conversation or journaling. This is also a potent time to gather more information and collect resources to support the vision we’re pursuiting.
♊️ MOON CONJUNCT ♊️ VENUS (14º) 6:00 AM PT
We are nurtured by love and ready to share it with others. Feelings of pleasure and sweet thoughts dominate our day. Let the beautiful energy flow.

✨ TSJ’S TAKEAWAY:
We experience a surge of mental energy this Sunday as Mercury Retrograde comes into a supportive sextile to Mars. This transit asks us to review our to-do list and revisit ideas that came up over the past couple weeks. What intuitive pings haven’t gone away? The Gemini moon keeps us in our head today, but a loving conjunction to Venus opens our heart too. Relating through conversation will feel especially nurturing today. Connecting with old friends might feel lovely!
