Did you know that the planets play a role when it comes to releasing weight? As of August, there are seven planets in retrograde. Each planet has a specific theme and depending on what Zodiac sign it’s in may help you release weight.
Pluto is retrograde in Capricorn – April 29th through October 8th: Pluto is associated with endings, beginnings and transformation.
Capricorn is an Earth sign and when Pluto can help motivate one to focus on goals and take action.
Saturn is retrograde in Aquarius – June 4th through Oct 23rd: Saturn is associated with structure, boundaries, schedules and organization.
Aquarius is an Air sign and when in Saturn, it’s helping us to make major karmic choices that will affect our lives for many years to come.
Neptune is retrograde in Pisces – June 28th through October 3rd: Neptune is associated with spiritual awakening and transformation.
Pisces is a Water sign and when in Neptune, it’s a time to reflect on how you take care of your own emotional and mental well-being and spiritual self-development.
Jupiter is retrograde in Aries – July 28th through November 23rd: Jupiter is associated with expansion and gifts.
Aries is a Fire sign and when in Jupiter, you become unstoppable, courageous, and confident. Depending on your personal placement of your zodiac sign, specifically water signs (Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces), this may reflect on how you see yourself and your body.
Chiron is retrograde in Aries – July 19 through December 23rd: Chiron is associated with inner child wounds and when in Aries, this may be a great time to release weight associated with inner child trauma.
Uranus is retrograde in Taurus – August 24th through January 22nd, 2023: Uranus is associated to the Awakening, I refer to it has the “midlife” planet.
Taurus is an Earth sign and when in Uranus, its least favorite sign to be in, it creates change around the foundations that we have built around our lives, structures fall and relationships evolve and grow in different ways. During this retrograde, you may be inspired to release the emotional weight that no longer serves you.
Mercury is retrograde in Libra – from September 9th through October 2nd and then in Capricorn from December 29th through January 18th, 2023.
Libra is an Air sign and when in Mercury, we may be inspired to bring more balance to communication, contracts and marriage, not only traditionally but also relating to our beliefs, habits, programming and philosophy. During this period, your inner dialogue may shift, which may result in releasing weight.
Mars will go retrograde in Gemini on October 30th through January 12th, 2023. This will be an unusual retrograde and one many will not forget, as some say, ‘wherever Mars goes, it brings activity and vitality.” This retrograde will change how we communicate through technology with others and ourselves. This may be a perfect time to fall in love with yourself.
Below is the forecast for all 12 Zodiac signs in addition to the 12 cards Cosmic Energy Spread. Note Cards in reverse indicate that there may be resistance and or you need to clear energy from that Chakra. For a more accurate reading, I recommend reading your Sun, Moon and Ascending (Rising) signs.
