Today begins Mercury Retrograde in the sign of Aquarius until February 20th. Mercury governs communication, and Aquarius is associated with groups, friends, hopes and dreams. During any Mercury Retrograde, it is time to revise how you communicate and to reconnect with your intuitive insights. And this Mercury Retrograde because Aquarius is all about community, friendships and relationships will therefore shine a spotlight on your relationships. It may trigger things from your past, reignite heart wounds that you need to heal and it will make you examine who you have chosen to hang around with and what your relationships say about how you feel and think about yourself. It will show you what you need to change in those relationships and in some cases who you need to let go of. And, this retrograde will also offer a deeper understanding, new clarity, and awakening into how you can create positive change. On a deeper level, you will most likely will be given opportunities to revisit your Higher Purpose and your role in the world as it relates to the greater good. You will be given the opportunity to re-evaluate who you work with and for and whether that work is in alignment with your highest good. Today, as you reflect on your long-term plans, you might just want to rethink your relationships. You might want to see where they are out of balance and where in some cases it is long past time for you to let go. After all, everyone in your life is a reflection of who you are and what you think about yourself. And since we are all shedding old beliefs, old limitations and old habits, your relationships also need to change. Today, allow yourself to slow down and look inward because all the answers that you seek are right there.

Just for today, my consciousness is filled with healthy, positive loving thoughts that are reflected in all my experiences. I do not have to earn love. I am loveable because I exist. I recognize that everyone in my life is a mirror of who and what I am. I attract only loving people into my life for they are a reflection of who and what I am. I cannot change other people. They must do their own work and they will do it when they are ready. I am willing to let go of all relationships that no longer serve any purpose in my life. I am safe. It is only change and out of this situation only good will come. And so it is.
