Why Use Essential Oils During Mercury Retrograde?
Mercury Retrograde can bring up:
Communication breakdowns
Emotional tension and frustration
Brain fog and scattered thoughts
Stress and sleep disruptions
A general feeling of "What is even happening right now?"
Essential oils are a powerful, natural way to support your energy, mindset, and emotions. Whether you use them in a diffuser, apply topically (with a carrier oil), or add them to diffuser jewelry for on-the-go support, these blends can help you stay grounded, calm, and open to growth—even in the middle of the retrograde rollercoaster.
Pro Tip: When creating your blends, let the oils sit together in one bottle for 8+ hours before use. This gives the molecules time to merge and creates a more cohesive aromatic experience.
