August 27. Thousands of yoga lovers gathered at Bryant Park in New York to practice together. They wanted to release negativity associated with Mercury in retrograde.
The event, free of charge to the public, was called a way to shake the “retroshade” of this astrological phase. Mercury retrograde occurs three to four times a year. Astrological enthusiasts fear that they cause misfortune.
This large assembly of yogis singing “OM” focused on the balance of energy and relaxation of stress. It seems that it will turn a difficult planetary phase into a new beginning.
Mercury’s return movement lasted from 17 to 11 July. According to the New York Post, the period is often associated with bad luck, confusion and emotional stress.
Many participants said the yoga session helped clean their mind and restore peace.
“It’s a lot about energies. In my personal case, Mercury is a bit more anxious, perhaps tense and nervous in retrograde,” said Sara, who visited the event from France.
Kendall Currell, retired professional, believes that he will go wrong during retrograde. She suffered bone bruise. He accuses it of retrograde.
“I managed to fall and get a bit of bone bruise! So I think it counts in retrograde as mercury,” she said.
Jenny Romanylli, who joined after work, explained that the retrograde left a feeling of fogging, forgetful and too emotional.
“Mercury retrograde is usually not a good time, but I think yoga helps to balance my emotions and body.
Yogi Jo Murdock led the Bryant Park class. According to him, people often accuse Mercury retrograde for everything bad. He considers this a chance of reflection and resetting.
“We all need resetting. You turn off the phone, turn off your computer – hopefully it is resetting and it works better. Think about it,” Murdock said.
“It’s like you get a review at work or get feedback on what you do. It may be nervous, but it really should help … Maybe someone reads your rights, but if you take it, it’s okay, it’s a tool,” he added.
