This Virgo season will be a little different than past seasons have been, as we are wrapping up retrogrades and beginning other planetary backspins. Mercury retrograde begins the same day Virgo season begins (this astrological aspect is going to affect us the most since Mercury is the planetary ruler of Virgo). The nostalgic smell of No. 2 pencils and the sight of the leaves changing color will motivate us to reconnect with our past as we’re reminded of our school days, as well as the old friends who were a major part of them. Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto retrograde will make us super emotional and less grounded at this time.
