May 13 | Energetic chapters are finally coming to a close
Mercury exits its shadow
Conversations and ideas that have been in your mental + physical washing machine, spinning round and round, are finally coming to a close. A metaphysical chapter is finishing up. Consider your loose ends sealed, and watch your energy shift toward the now instead of focusing on the past.
For the past few weeks, things have seemed sort of stagnant at work, the same pain points get brought up week after week with no resolve. Rest assured they’re in the process of working themselves out, even if it’s not obvious. Since Mercury stationed direct on April 25th, you’ll see the manifestation of said issue get worked out between now and then. If not work, you might see it through conversations in your relationship, or even within yourself.
Though change isn’t always obvious, the universe is working out the kinks.
May 15 | Saying yes to energetic shifts and positive thought
Mercury enters Taurus
This week don’t let your words or assumptions, get the best of you. It’ll be a time to practice lots of self-control, instead of overcommitting (especially concerning your career or your love life.)
With so many planets in Taurus, you might feel overwhelmed to share about your relationship, work life, or your life stresses when you normally wouldn’t. While it’s incredibly healthy to share about your inner world, make sure you’re doing so in a healthy way. Shy away from oversharing, and make sure you’re venting to folks who support you for the right reasons. This isn’t the time to jump online and pour out your soul, but instead, maybe join a support group or even go to therapy with your partner.
When it comes to work, make sure you’re following the same outline as above. You’ll feel the urge to indulge in a little more gossip than usual, or maybe even get caught up in a little workplace drama. Don’t panic though, because if you give it enough space, it’ll just run its course. While Mercury and Jupiter are present in the same house, you’ll find that things just have a way of working out. Keep your higher self in the forefront of your mind, and make sure all of your actions are well thought out and coming from a good place. Self-realization will be a key part of this transit, because you won’t want to get caught up in your ideals, becoming a little stubborn in the process of change.
It’s entirely possible you might hold yourself back if you’re not listening to the more subtle cues that are guiding you.

Let me guide you toward a deeper understanding and peace through the wisdom of the stars.
Weekly favs 💚
On repeat 🎵 I discovered Hey, Nothing on TikTok this week and It’s everything my elder emo heart wants with finding a new artist. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do, this is my favorite song of theirs! Their acoustic songs on TikTok are even better than the recorded ones, in my opinion.
Meal prep 🥑 Even though it’s getting warmer out, I’m still a soup-girly forever and always. This week I’m crafting together a household favorite - this white bean and kale soup! Both kale and white beans were on sale this week, so that’s what we’re working with, as soon as we saw the kale on sale, we knew what we had to concoct this week!
On my nightstand 📚 I’m halfway through The Open Air Life, for some feel-good nighttime reading. I find a lot of comfort in knowing that I embrace the outdoors in my life. If you’re looking to incorporate more outdoor living into your life to reap the mental benefits, this book is a great place to start. It’s inspiring me to dig in a little deeper, and really make walking a part of my every day multiple times a day (even when the weather isn’t perfect.) If you’re a bookworm too, let’s connect on Goodreads!
What’s in my cup ☕
Looking for a digestive duo that packs a punch — are you familiar with lemon and ginger? Ginger's got that spicy kick that gets your digestion fired up, while lemon brings the zesty tang to the party. Together, they're like the dream team for your tummy! They help calm down any digestive drama, kick nausea to the curb, and even fight off free radicals. I’ve been heavily leaning on these two additions to my daily tea to help balance out the digestive troubles I’m going through. Especially living in the mountains with car sickness, I rely on ginger candies weekly! I was actually reading the packaging recently — and it said you can dissolve the ginger candy in hot water for a DIY emergency hot ginger tea!
