Hello, clarity! After weeks of retrograde miscommunications, mental fog, and tangled timelines; Mercury is finally direct (and in fiery Leo, no less).
That which has felt scattered will officially begin clicking into place, and even if the path ahead isn’t yet crystal clear… the lights are slowly turning back on.
Leo brings about a certain boldness and heart to the way we process and express. While Mercury in Leo sure can be a tad subjective; it invites us to express ourselves authentically.
That being said, we’re not totally in the clear just yet. Mercury’s post-shadow period lasts about another two weeks, meaning its echoes may still ripple through our conversations, tech, and mental realms.
If something still feels a little off — give it space. The post-shadow is a time of integration. How you’ve grown may not be clear until you’ve had some time to reflect.
And we’re here to help! Read on for what this Mercury shift highlights for you — and we recommend reading your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs.
Themes: Self-expression, creative ideas, romance, and joy.
You're remembering how good it feels to speak from the heart without second guessing. Take up all the space you need, the world awaits.
Themes: Home, family, emotional foundations, and personal history.
Your past will start to make more sense now. Acknowledging the things that made you who you are, will be important in determining who you’re becoming and the legacy you’ll have.

Misunderstandings might just start to clear up, and if you’ve been finding it hard articulating yourself, that begins to change. Reminder: language isn’t your only tool for communication.
Themes: Resources, wealth, physical health.
You’re gaining clarity on what you truly value — and what you're no longer willing to invest in. Don’t second guess it, you’ll know what to do.
Themes: Your identity, voice, and image.
This retrograde has been in your sign, so all the more wonky for Leos! You’re emerging from the fog ready to show up in the world more unapologetically. Your gifts are important, and have a bigger impact than you know.
Themes: Rest, intuition, dreams, spirit.
Magic can be something you access in each moment, everyday. The How is up to you, but step one is committing to a life of it.

There were never any “mistakes,” only redirections. You can trust success has nothing to do with how much you sacrifice, and more to do with your inner alignment. So what feels right?
Themes: Intuition, travel, perspective.
Your inner compass is coming back online. You’re starting to see where your energy is being drained, and where it actually belongs.
Themes: Your subconscious, intimacy, transformation.
Mercury is helping you untangle what isn’t truly yours to carry. You might have to lose something to gain everything.

Your relationships might be shifting in more ways than one. Observe changing dynamics — not everything needs to be fixed, but it does need to be felt.
Themes: Habits, work, and daily rhythms.
