Jupiter AND Mercury Retrograde? How to Manage a Month of Confusion

Jupiter and Mercury are both planets of intelligence, wisdom, and discernment — the teacher, the student, and distillers of knowledge.

As they move through the water signs - they contrast intellect with intuition, inviting us to explore how we gather, process, and share information OR allow ourselves to be moved by information (whether it be true or false!). This season challenges us to balance logic and feeling, clarity and empathy, so we don’t become swept away by the emotional undercurrents of Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces.

Mercury retrogrades through Scorpio, excavating stories and secrets. Its movement may reveal patterns of control, manipulation, or hidden information that distorts communication or cloud perception. Through this process, we are offered the gift of seeing truth beneath illusion and make judgements based on clear perception.

Jupiter retrogrades in Cancer, calling us towards the inner compass of intuition and the heart. This transit may slow outward success, but deepened sensitivity, self-trust, and reconnection to what feels safe, nurturing, and authentic.
