Working with the current friction

It’s easy to feel like things are stalling lately. With current transits showing some heavy hitters like Saturn in Aries and Mars in Cancer, you might feel like you’re trying to run through water. When a planet starts moving retrograde, life tends to hit a speed bump. You’ll notice emails getting lost, plans shifting at the last minute, or old frustrations bubbling up from the past.

Don’t panic when your calendar falls apart this month. Retrogrades aren’t here to ruin your day; they’re just asking you to double-check your work and tie up loose ends. If you’re feeling extra scattered, it’s usually because the sky is nudging you to slow down rather than push ahead. I keep an eye on these cycles using the SkyToday app just to stay ahead of the technical glitches. Instead of fighting the delays, use this time to fix what’s already broken. You don’t need to start something new today. Just breathe, review your habits, and be patient with yourself while the energy levels out.
