3 Ways Mercury Retrograde May Be Impacting Your Life NOW



The world is experiencing both Mercury Retrograde right now, amid a major 2020 energy shift. Mercury Retrograde is when the actual planet Mercury appears to be going backward to us, but it really isn't. This cycle started on October 13th and ends on November 4th, but we also experience what they call the shadow period, adding on two more weeks. We will still be experiencing its energy through the 20th of November.

There are several things to be mindful of during this time because Mercury Retrograde can cause chaos in technology, communication, and relationships. I'm going to share three ways Mercury Retrograde may affect your life and what you can do to protect your energy to protect yourself and get yourself through this energy shift in this time of uncertainty.

When Mercury is in Retrograde, we may have chaos in the following areas:


1.Chaos in Technology

So we have probably been feeling uneasy and experiencing technology issues for going on two months now. Have you noticed your devices on the fritz? Your computers, your laptops might be acting crazy. We experienced a lot of broken phones or down apps. All of that type of thing happens during the Mercury Retrograde. If your technology has been off, this is why.

2. Chaos in Communication

With our technology on the fritz, confusion may also come about in communication. So if you're feeling like you've been arguing with people or experiencing miscommunication, here's why. People aren't going to reveal themselves. Evil spirits are going to show themselves during this time. So pay attention. Expect the truth to be revealed in both your personal and professional relationships.

3. Chaos in Relationships

If we're having issues with communication, it may spew into our intimate relationships. You may find yourself arguing with your significant other or close family more. So if you need to retrain your relationship, Mercury Retrograde is the time to get it done.

They also say not to sign contracts or make significant decisions.




This energy shift is, is actually, the earth shift from three dimensions to four dimensions. What’s happening during this shift is the earth is actually pushing out the negativity accumulated, right? Not just pollution, but the negativity that we have been putting into the earth. If you know anything about energy, or if you're learning about energy, everything possesses energy or power, even the inanimate objects in our homes, the refrigerator, the stove, the tables, the chairs that we sit on, all of these things possess energy. And so just like we and these inanimate objects possess power, so does the earth.


Just like we need to clean our sails, the Earth is purging; the earth also needs to clean cleanse itself of this negative energy that we've been spewing out.


The Regal Phoenix offers several products that can assist you during Mercury Retrograde, but two products we specifically recommend are our Sacred Sage Spray and our Essentials Box. Our Sacred Sage Spray is a natural alternative to burning Sage or Palo Santo, and the Essentials Box is a Magic Box curated with the newbie in mind. It is a great way to try out a smaller version of all the essential spiritual tools you need to cleanse your energy, protect your energy, and raise your vibes!


Now is the time for mindfulness, for stillness. If your anger management is a little out of control, seek therapy if that's what you need to do. However, remember that Mercury Retrograde is a great time and not something to fear. And last but not least, self-care. Okay? Remember that self-care includes meditation and prayer exercise, and definitely more and more water, guys.
