Surviving Mercury Retrograde
June 18 - July 12 2020
Mercury is going into retrograde again…
BUT BEFORE YOU PANIC
Let us break it down for you a little bit: Mercury retrograde gets a bad rap for causing miscommunication, issues with technology, travel, and other annoying inconveniences.
But believe it or not, you don’t have to be afraid of it and with the right #NamasteAsFuck mindset, you can actually use it to your advantage.
Here are a few #NAF tips and tricks to keep a cool head until the storm is over.
SLOW THE FUCK DOWN
Your phone, email or computer will probably have issues during this time. Hopefully knowing this ahead of time will make it a little less intense and instead of panicking and trying to force it or staring at the loading page all day, try to take this opportunity to SLOW TF DOWN and find another way to communicate (i.e. IN PERSON)
Try not to take everything so damn personally
Everyone is going to be having issues with communication right now. Do you best to give people the benefit of the doubt and try not to jump to conclusions about people fucking you over or ganging up on you.
Triple check your itinerary
Mercury is infamous for issues with travel. If you’re going on a trip or just driving to work, be prepared for a few mixups, delays and missed connections.
Now is NOT the time to start something new
Instead of starting a new project or jumping in to a new relationship now is a time to (slow down and) reflect on how far you have come. There are plenty of things you can be proud of and take time to congratulate yourself for! Accomplishments at work (even if it’s just surviving your week), ditching toxic relationships or friendships, honoring your feelings and saying YES or NO when you wanted to or needed to. Don’t let anyone pressure you into something you don’t want to do or force yourself into making a decision.
Also don’t force yourself to go to that yoga class if you really don’t feel like it. TAKE YOUR TIME and don’t be afraid to double check what your body or intuition is trying to tell you.
And on that note, also be weary of any old flames or exs sliding through your DMs (they love to creep during retrogrades!)
REMEMBER WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE
You are Namaste As Fuck. You have been through way worse and you have so many “this is the best day ever’s” that haven’t happened yet. You are powerful AF. As shitty as things may feel for a few weeks, it is TEMPORARY and things will lighten up soon, we promise!
