Mercury is retrograde, and I’ve written about this several times before.https://lisamcsherry.com/travel-during-mercury-retrograde/https://lisamcsherry.com/mercury-retrograde-revelations/https://lisamcsherry.com/honoring-lord-m/ I hope something I’ve said is helpful.
A few years ago, during the lockdown of the pandemic, someone I’d known in high school and I started writing letters to one another. Nothing earth-shattering, just ordinary life stories, kids grown up, post-retirement life, moving to a new place. . . . just stuff.
Each year at my birthday I review the previous year, celebrate my accomplishments, and set goals for the coming year. (Here’s my post from last year.)
