Hey everyone!
Do you believe in astrology? I’ve always read upon my sign (Aries) but was never really crazy about it until I moved to LA. It’s crazy that the first question strangers ask you is “What’s your sign?” So now I do the same since it’s so interesting how people’s personalities differ from the time they were born and which moon alignment was in a certain direction on their birth date.
Well, I’m here to talk. Not about fashion, not about skincare but just to talk. Mercury has been in retrograde since last week and my life has been going pretty downhill since. If you don’t believe in astrology that’s fine – but I blame all these terrible situations happening in my life because of this retrograde. I apologize I haven’t been writing – I’m blaming it on the moon!
Coming from someone that has been fighting through rough obstacles from a young age and if you are going through it these past few days – It will get better. I’m trying my hardest to believe that. I read in an article about retrogrades and they used the quote “It gets worse before it gets better”. So I look at this crazy transition happening in the sky as a blessing in disguise. You see, everything happens for a reason. Everything. Good or bad, there is always an explanation to what is happening in your life. Which is why i’m trying my best to believe that all these hectic situations that have been occurring these past few days will have a happy ending to it. It’s very difficult but force a smile on your face. My friend sent me an article about how forcing a smile can scientifically reduce stress and bring the missing serotonin in your body. So even if you feel like you physically and mentally can’t smile… turn that frown upside down. Trust me – it’ll help you get through the day.
Mercury is in retrograde for another 2 weeks I think – so toughen up. At this point i’m ready for anything the universe throws at me, and all I have to do is take baby steps and work through it. At the moment I feel like crawling under my blanket to run away from all the problems i’m facing but that’s just going to put a pause on it and i’m going to have to deal with it later. I just have to face it. Listen to me – talk to yourself and tell yourself out loud that everything is going to be okay. No matter what happens. Work towards your obstacles and once you surpass this bump in your life you will be so proud of yourself.
Take care and stay strong bloomers, If I can do it – so can you!
