Maybe we feel like we’re floundering, trying to swim against the tide, constantly pushed back. Sometimes life is exhausting. Sometimes it seems so much easier to avoid, evade, escape! And with Mercury retrograde in Aries, it all feels mixed up – the instruction to be quiet, think it over, listen, when every other instinct says decide now, speak, now, act now!

Still, we can find a work around, a little positive movement or momentum. The trick is to face the fear, to accept that life is a constant process of change and that we will adapt and grow and learn along with it. Push past anger and deal with the sorrow underneath. Sacrifice speed for peace. Flex your intuitive muscles, strengthen your beliefs, fire up your connection to the universe. Use your power. Dare to entertain unconventional ideas to catch sight of new lines of enquiry, new paths of possibility.  Cultivate a forward-thinking approach. Necessity is the mother of invention.
