While still under the influence of Venus conjunct Chiron in Pisces, let us look further ahead in the sign to Mercury Retrograde making its third and fourth of four conjunctions as it travels backwards in the sign of Pisces, connecting with Venus at 8:54p PST on March 6th and Chiron at 9:32a PST on March 8th.
As noted in the previous post, Venus conjunct Chiron in Pisces gives us the opportunity to allow ourselves to let go of the relationships and partnerships that hurt us so that we may forgive ourselves and heal our emotional and spiritual wounds. However, when we put Mercury Retrograde in the mix, the learning from our past element strengthens in profound ways.
Remember that Mercury is mental and intellectual energy, so these revelations of truth and this process of learning and coming to terms with all of the Truth emerging may bring a shift of consciousness for you – an awakening of your mind that allows you to recognize your individual and collective emotional and spiritual Truth and connection with Love.
And when Mercury is retrograde, it turns that intellectual and communicative energy within. You may be thinking a lot to yourself, but it doesn’t make the thoughts any less powerful. In fact, if anything, your thoughts are more powerful now than if you were sharing them outwardly with others. Mercury Retrograde is allowing for a new self-perspective through a great deal of learning and growth of self-knowledge and gaining a better understanding your past and how it led you to who and where you are now. Here in watery, dreamy Pisces conjuncting with Venus and Chiron, Mercury Retrograde can assist your emotional and spiritual progression in creating healthy and fulfilling relationships in all areas of your life.
Let’s start with Mercury Retrograde conjunct Venus in Pisces. Through this conjunction, you may find yourself looking back to “the one that got away”. You remember – that long-lost yet long-remembered first true love (or first emotional obsession) that you may have missed out on, may have missed your chance with, or that you may have screwed up somehow. If you’re thinking back rather often lately, you may want to ask yourself what that relationship has to teach you, and how you can learn and apply those lessons now. The fact that old relationship keeps coming up for you now does not necessarily mean that you need to seek the person out and try again. It more likely means that that experience holds a lesson or a truth in it that may help you understand and experience unconditional love in your relationship or partnership matters now.
With Mercury Retrograde conjunct Chiron in Pisces, you may be feeling extra sensitive about your own personal emotional and spiritual truths or with larger, collective Universal Truths that are being revealed to you at this time. You may be finding that your long-held beliefs about how you are emotionally or spiritually wounded or unlovable are changing or dissolving, and this may have you feeling lost and uncertain. What can your experiences reveal to you about your emotional and spiritual wounds and how to heal them?
Sometimes, when we are able to get back to the source of an injury – the original wounding incident – we are able to face it, deal with the truth of it, and heal it through forgiveness. Forgiveness has amazing healing powers, and it isn’t only about forgiving others. Most importantly, you need to forgive yourself for allowing the pain to occur so you can know and love yourself. Through self-awareness and self-love, you find the capacity to truly love and be of genuinely loving service to others.
These Mercury Retrograde conjunctions with Venus and Chiron in Pisces will also affect us on a collective level, as we will be able to look back in our history with more clarity than usual. In doing so, we can learn from our past experiences, and create a new way of thinking now that will give us the chance to manifest a completely new experience for ourselves in the future – an experience rooted in unconditional love and acceptance, and in loving service to one another in the context of our connection with All-That-is.
It’s going to be quite a few days now through March 9th, yet these days have the potential to be very healing and possibly life-altering for you and for all of us. Allow the water of Pisces to flow in your life, especially in your mind, and allow Mercury Retrograde, Venus, and Chiron in Pisces to help you see, learn, and heal your past so you can be powerfully present in creating a clear and truthful vision for your future and for the future of All.
Thank you for reading and sharing. Until next post…
