Mercury’s Not Alone. There’ll Be SIX Planets in Retrograde This Month
Just when we thought the cosmos were calming down, June brings six planetary retrogrades our way… in the middle of eclipse season. Mercury (yep, Mercury Retrograde is back, bb!!!), Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto are all spinning backwards this month.
All of this celestial chaos will make us all rethink and revise our plans for the future and act as a catalyst for change.
