By Dana Mrkich, 04/20/2016 For the first time in a decade, we have 5 planets retrograde at the same time. You might be reading a lot about how this time is all about pausing and not being able to get much done, but actually, from a Soul perspective, this is going to be a hugely productive time. Whenever a planet goes retrograde, it offers an opportunity to review, re-visit, remember, re-wire, re-do, re-claim, release. Imagine a building that had an original blueprint of glorious architecture, stunning interior design, unique features. But over time, we see the effects of wear and tear, of outside influence, of other people’s contributions. Bricks have been built over the original sandstone.
Shout out to Ines for sharing this one on our fb group, I think it has some interesting points. Good reminder, this energy is pushing us out of our comfort zone. I really loved the analogy she put into this about overhauling and renovation. I have especially noticed mars retro because it seems like i can rarely get done what i am trying to do, it’s very stagnant and takes me like 4 hours to do something sometimes lol. but i realize this is a big shift in the making! and with 5 retrogrades happening at once, our comfort zone is ultimately going to be thrown off a lot. I especially resonated with this part: Pluto retrograde will ask us: Do you see what has been activated here? Have you realized what you have to let go of? Have you accepted what is happening? Are you letting in the new energy that wants to emerge from within you? That’s perfect.
