This week on Astro Talk, we're exploring one of the most important astrological moments of the Mercury Retrograde cycle, the Inferior Conjunction. Think of it as Mercury's New Moon, a chance to rewrite the stories you've been telling yourself about who you are and what is possible.
We also dive into the Cancer New Moon, Venus square Uranus and the exciting long-term influence of Uranus sextile Neptune, looking at how these transits invite us to embrace change without losing ourselves.
As always, I've included this week's worksheet and an Inferior Conjunction cheat sheet to help you work with the astrology in a practical way.
