November 9–15, 2025By Ritual & Restore
✨ Cosmic Overview
Welcome to a week of reflection, recalibration, and cosmic realignment. Mercury officially stations retrograde on November 9, setting the stage for a few weeks of introspection, tech glitches, and communication plot twists. Don’t panic — this isn’t cosmic punishment. It’s a universal invitation to slow down, double-check, and reconnect with what truly matters.
The Moon is waning after the Full Moon in Taurus, guiding us gently into a phase of emotional release and inner peace. It’s the perfect moment to clear space — physically, emotionally, spiritually — before the next lunar cycle begins.
🪞 Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius → Scorpio
When Mercury retrogrades through Sagittarius, the sign of truth and higher meaning, our words can run faster than our clarity. Think “honest overshare” energy. Then, as it drifts into Scorpio, the mood deepens. Secrets surface. Intuition sharpens. Conversations that matter most demand honesty — but also tenderness.
This retrograde asks: Where have I been avoiding deeper truths in my relationships, work, or spiritual path?
Instead of rushing for answers, breathe into curiosity. Miscommunication can actually become revelation if you pause long enough to listen beneath the surface.
🌗 The Moon Phase: Waning in Taurus → Gemini
The waning Moon is your cosmic permission slip to release and reset. Taurus grounds us — think slow mornings, stable routines, and earthy rituals that keep you connected to your body. As the Moon moves into Gemini midweek, energy quickens. You’ll crave conversation, ideas, and learning, but stay mindful — Mercury’s retrograde means messages might get scrambled.
Ritual & Restore tip: Pair grounding practices (Slow & Serene your or The Weekly Ritual flow, deep breathing, mindful journaling) with small doses of curiosity — read, explore, connect — but without overloading your nervous system.
🔮 Rituals for Clarity and Calm
Keywords: Mercury retrograde rituals, moon release ritual, grounding yoga flow, self-care for spiritual women
1. The Clarity Ritual Light a white candle, hold your journal, and ask:
“What truth is trying to find its way through me?”Write freely for 11 minutes. Don’t censor, just let your subconscious speak.
2. Communication Detox Unplug from your phone or social media for one evening. Notice how your body feels when you’re not reacting to digital noise. Mercury rewards silence with insight.
3. Grounding Yoga Flow Focus on the root chakra — long holds in forward folds, malasana (yogi squat), or child’s pose. Visualise red light anchoring you into calm, steady ground beneath your feet.
4. Release & Restore Bath Add lavender, Epsom salts, and a handful of rose petals. As you soak, say aloud:
“I release confusion and invite clarity into every conversation.”

Mercury retrograde isn’t here to ruin your plans — it’s here to refine them.
Your Ritual & Restore roadmap:
Backup & review – save your files, reread messages before sending, and give travel plans extra time.
Pause before reacting – take three conscious breaths before responding in heated moments.
Revisit your “why” – retrogrades love reflection; journal on what you’ve been chasing and whether it still aligns.
Re-connect – reach out to old friends or mentors; Mercury loves to reopen meaningful doors
This week’s astrology invites stillness. The waning Moon whispers release; Mercury retrograde hums “rethink, reframe, realign.” Every misunderstanding holds a message, every delay a gift. Slow down, restore your rituals, and trust that when the cosmos seems to rewind, your spirit is simply being realigned.
Ritual & Restore mantra for the week: “I surrender to stillness. I trust divine timing. I speak with grace and listen with love.”
