🌀 Mercury Retrograde: Chaos or Cosmic Check-In?

Ah, Mercury Retrograde — the astrological equivalent of walking through wet cement while your phone dies and your ex texts you “hey.” This phase happens about 3-4 times a year, and while it's infamous for wreaking havoc, it’s more of a cosmic recalibration than a curse.

What Actually Happens?

Mercury appears to move backward in the sky (retrograde motion), and since it rules communication, travel, and technology, those areas tend to glitch out.

Expect:

Delays in travel

Miscommunications or arguments

Tech breakdowns

Old wounds or people resurfacing

But it’s also a sacred invitation to slow down, reflect, and rewrite what’s no longer aligned. Think of it as cosmic editing mode: frustrating, yes, but necessary.

🧪 How It All Affects You

You’re made of stardust, water, and electric currents — so yes, you are absolutely impacted by these shifts. The Moon can change your mood, menstrual cycle, sleep quality, and even your supplement needs. Mercury Retrograde might challenge your ability to stay grounded or make clear decisions — making it the perfect time for adaptogenic herbs, grounding practices, and dreamwork tools.

🔮 At Nature’s Artery, we honor these celestial cycles through the Elixirium Collection — a line of supplements designed to support your magic and physiology, no matter what the cosmos are doing.

🌙 Final Thoughts: You Are Lunar & Electric

You don’t need to be an astrologer to feel it — the Moon whispers, Mercury pulses, and the stars are always speaking. The more you align your rituals, wellness, and rest cycles with these natural rhythms, the more grounded and powerful you become.

You are nature. You are alchemy. You are magic.
