When a planet goes retrograde, many people feel it – even if they don’t know why. Plans stall, emotions surface, and old patterns return for another look. In astrology, retrogrades are not “bad luck.” They are powerful times to review, reflect, and realign your path.

If you’ve ever heard someone say, “It must be Mercury Retrograde!” when things go wrong, they’re not wrong to wonder. Mercury Retrograde is one of the most talked-about astrological events—and for good reason. Spiritually, this period represents a time for reflection, reevaluation, and renewal. It’s when the universe invites us to slow down and look inward.

Mercury retrograde in November 2025 is the final retrograde of the year, inviting everyone to slow down, reflect, and realign communication, travel, and technology. While Mercury never truly moves backward, this celestial illusion often creates moments of confusion, delays, and introspection — offering a chance to reassess what needs refinement.

The Full Moon has been a source of mystery, magic, and spiritual symbolism for centuries. Many cultures, especially Native American tribes, gave each full moon a name and meaning that tied into the seasons and the natural world. Spiritually, full moons represent completion, illumination, and release—but they can also stir emotions, heighten intuition, and shift energy in powerful ways.
