Retrograde Guide To The Universe 😂
Retrograde periods are not cosmic doom and gloom, but rather opportunities for personal growth, or at least a decent story to tell at your next therapy session. Understand the themes of each retrograde and use them to gain insights, heal past wounds, and embrace new possibilities.
Tips for Navigating Retrograde Periods
-
Practice self-reflection without getting lost in social media and self-help gurus.
-
Embrace creativity, spirituality, and a healthy dose of skepticism.
-
Welcome unexpected changes and disruptions as opportunities for growth, even if they involve your boss promoting you to a position you never wanted.
-
Revisit past dreams, aspirations, and values, while questioning the validity of astrology altogether.
-
Seek support from trusted friends and therapists, especially if your inner drama queen decides to make a grand entrance.
Remember, retrograde periods are not to be feared but rather embraced as catalysts for personal transformation, even if that transformation involves becoming a cynical recluse who writes snarky blog posts about astrology. Acknowledge their influence, take conscious action, and emerge from these periods with renewed purpose, resilience, or at least a good laugh at your own cosmic misfortunes.
