Mercury Retrograde: A Time To Revisit, Reflect And Realign
Has it felt like the universe has been playing a cosmic prank on you lately? Maybe your phone or computer has started acting up, or your travel plans have taken an unexpected turn, or maybe every conversation feels like a confusing game of telephone?
You’re not imagining any it, and you’re definitely not alone. Blame it on the astrological phenomenon known as Mercury Retrograde.
Mercury began its current retrograde motion in the sign of Leo on July 18, 2025. This phase will last for 24 days, ending on August 11, 2025, with Mercury still positioned in Leo as it returns to direct motion.
But this energetic shift doesn’t stop there. After Mercury stations direct, we enter the shadow period, also known as the post-retrograde shadow or retroshade. This phase usually lasts for about two more weeks, meaning the lingering effects of the current retrograde may continue through August 25, 2025.
Mercury retrograde occurs three, and occasionally four, times each year due to the planet’s swift orbit around the Sun. As the innermost planet, Mercury completes this journey in just 88 Earth days.
During its retrograde phase, Mercury appears to move backward in the sky from our earthly perspective, creating a temporary disruption in its usual energetic influence. Because it is the planet that rules communication, travel, and information, its retrograde motion often stirs up confusion, delays, and misunderstandings in these areas of life.
Soul To Soul Connection In The Digital Age
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has made significant strides in mimicking human interaction. From chatbots that answer customer service questions to AI-generated horoscopes and tarot spreads, technology is omnipresent, even within the spiritual community.
However, there’s a clear distinction between simulated interaction and a genuine spiritual connection. AI can scan data, detect patterns, and even “learn” to mimic language and tone. However, it lacks two essential components: a heart, and a soul.
Technology may be evolving faster than ever before, but some things will always be fundamentally human and spiritually profound. When seeking comfort, clarity, or connection, the presence of another person makes all the difference.
AI is here to stay, and in many areas, it brings undeniable benefits. But when it comes to your spiritual journey, there’s a reason people have turned to seers, mediums, and mystics for centuries. There’s a wisdom that flows only through human heart, mind and soul, a depth of understanding that no algorithm or “for you page” can match.
At PsychicAccess.com, true guidance is more than just data. It’s a dialogue of transpersonal empathy, spiritual insight and divine wisdom. Live readings with our expert psychics or mediums offer something AI can’t replicate: real, soulful exchanges that honor your journey and speak directly to your spirit.
When you choose a live reading with one of our gifted psychics, you’re choosing more than information. You’re choosing personal transformation. You’re stepping into a sacred space where you can be seen, heard, and guided with compassion and truth. Continue reading
Spirit’s Three-Step Remedy For The Scattered Mind
I love to meditate. It’s my sacred coffee break with the cosmos — the moment when I trade phone pings and to-do lists for the whispers of spirit and the soothing hum of the universe.
Before every session, I set an intention. Usually it is a question I’d like spirit to answer. I think of it as sending a “text message” to the divine and waiting, phone in hand, for the soft chime of truth.
Today’s intention led me straight to the heart of a puzzle that troubles many parents, teachers, and sensitive individuals: Why does Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) seem to be skyrocketing in society?
In classrooms, offices, and even yoga studios, more of us are struggling with scattered focus and mental fatigue. Studies now suggest that our screen-filled, high-pressure lives may be pushing hidden attention problems into a full-blown pandemic.
I felt compelled to ask, “Is there more to the story than brain chemistry and prescription medication?”
After a longer than usual session, I emerged with a couple of journal pages full of insights that felt refreshingly simple, yet profoundly wise.
The first thing I saw in my meditation was a vision of life in the pre-internet age before we had smartphones.
I saw in my mind’s eye neighbors chatting on porches, children riding their bikes in the street until dinnertime, and evenings lit by conversation instead of blue screens. The pace was slower, and people’s nervous systems were calmer.
When Communication Breaks Down In A Relationship
So often callers ask me why they have trouble communicating with their partner or spouse. There’s often some kind of miscommunication going on in many people’s relationships these days.
And these misunderstandings quickly snowball into something bigger if they’re not addressed early on.
When someone contacts me for a reading with this kind of question, I go in and do the work to get to the root of the problem. Superficial answers are never good enough when it comes to the people we love and care about.
Because let’s face it, love and relationships are vital to our happiness and sense of belonging, but they are rarely easy and straightforward. They are worth the effort when the connection is real.
The first thing I always check with this kind of reading is if there’s any infidelity or dishonesty. It’s uncomfortable and dangerous territory, but we always have to rule it out because it’s so common these days.
If one person isn’t being honest or cheating, it throws everything else off balance. There’s no point in doing deep relationship recovery and healing work if the foundation of trust and integrity is crumbling.
Once that’s clear, I tune in to see if there is what I call a “love cord” connection between the couple. This is my way of checking to see if their souls are karmically connected.
Clearing Toxic Energy From Your Home
When I do a reading for a client, I not only read their energy, but I also tune into the energy of their loved ones, co-workers, friends, home and work environments, and community. Often, it quickly becomes apparent that the client’s home environment is toxic, stagnant, or energetically polluted, deeply affecting their health, well-being, and spiritual harmony.
In these cases, clients often report a mix of physical and emotional symptoms commonly seen with energy pollution, which may include fatigue, irritability, anxiety, depression, oversleeping or insomnia, cravings for sugar, caffeine, or alcohol.
Sometimes there are also spiritual, supernatural, or paranormal issues in the home. These may include a persistent feeling of “being watched” or an unexplained heaviness or unusual temperature variations in certain areas of their home.
Clients may also describe disturbing dreams and nighmares, an inability to connect with their intuition, or a sense of spiritual detachment. Some even mention hearing unexplained noises or experiencing a frequent loss of items in the home that later turn up in strange or unexpected places.
The reason for this is that a energetically polluted environment tends to amplify negative spiritual attachments or attract energies that feed on the chaos. Such clients often express difficulty maintaining protective spiritual practices, such as meditation or grounding, and feel that their energy feeling drained or blocked.
Why More People Are Turning To Phone Psychic Readings
Social media platforms, text messaging and chatbots have transformed the way we communicate and access information, but it has also left many feeling isolated and disconnected. While technology has made our lives more convenient, it has also created a world where real human connection is often lacking.
At Psychic Access we find that this growing void is leading more and more people to seek out phone psychic readings.
The world’s increasing reliance on digital communication has ironically led to a resurgence in the demand for live, one-to-one psychic readings over the phone in the post-landline era.
While artificial intelligence and automated responses have their place, they cannot replicate the warmth, empathy and intuitive insight of a gifted psychic.
Many people are frustrated by the impersonal nature of modern communication and long for a conversation that is both meaningful and transformative.
With our team of expert psychics and mediums, people experience the reassurance, guidance and insight that only real human interaction can provide, in the comfort and convenience of their office or home.
At Psychic Access we understand this need. Since our inception two decades ago in February 2005, we have been committed to providing live, personal psychic readings by phone 24/7 to clients around the world. Our mission is to provide a truly personal experience – one that is confidential, insightful and deeply rewarding.
As technology continues to evolve, we remain steadfast in our belief that nothing can replace the comfort and clarity that comes from speaking to a real, compassionate psychic.
Rune Forecast For The New Solar Year 2025
As the Sun moves into Aries, we welcome a new solar year full of transformation, movement and empowerment. The shift to Aries signals new beginnings, renewed energy, and the courage to take action.
Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, embodies the courageous essence of initiation, signaling a time to embrace new possibilities and harness our personal power.
This period marks a cosmic invitation to pursue new beginnings, to align with the flow of change, and to step boldly into action.
The energy of Aries, infused with renewed vitality and determination, encourages us to set clear intentions, embark on transformative endeavors, and move forward with unwavering confidence.
Whether we are initiating projects, fostering personal growth, or seeking clarity about our life’s direction, Aries offers us the courage to navigate life’s transitions with purpose.
To gain insight into the collective energy shaping the journey ahead, I turned to the ancient wisdom of the runes. The four runes I cast – Raidho, Laguz, Uruz, and Kenaz – present a profound narrative.
Raidho speaks of movement and life’s journey; Laguz reflects emotional flow and intuition; Uruz symbolizes inner strength and vitality; and Kenaz illuminates the path ahead with enlightenment and creativity.
Together, these runes guide us to embrace change with resilience and to embrace the transformative year that unfolds before us.
