You can expect to be doing some rethinking and reconsidering about cash, property and/or your possessions during this cycle. Your self-esteem and what you really value is also up for a rethink.
It may also be time to reconsider what’s important to you in life. It sounds like a big question and, yes, it is. But you only get the occasional chance to really revise such major issues. So, what really matters to you? Is your current lifestyle supporting what you believe to be important in the great scheme of things? If you’ve been feeling negative about yourself lately, this cycle asks you to think again about your opinion of yourself! Rate yourself more highly and more money will follow. It’s the law of attraction. Also, what good does it do you to act small?
The 2nd House is about cash, property and possessions, so you do need to be extra careful when making financial transactions because there’s extra room for confusion. That said, most positively, it’s a very good time to rethink your finances, and money owed to you could finally turn up. If you’re trying to make a big decision regarding buying or selling property, gather the facts first.
Expect the opportunity to do something again, especially when it comes to money, banking, PayPal, cryptocurrency or anything else to do with cash, property or possessions. This is an awesome cycle, not least because it has so much to teach us about the energetic connections between self-esteem and money. Money is energy, remember, so it’s a good time to rethink your attitudes to cash. Do you think you’re worthy of the money you’d like to earn? That’s the key.
So, overall, this is an excellent time to revisit old, nagging issues in terms of your finances. Perhaps there’s a better bank account to switch to or a credit card with a lower interest rate. Or maybe you could pay your bills on a different, more convenient, day of the month. Spending a little time reviewing how you handle your money could save you a small fortune in the long run.
If you get really lucky during this cycle, it could be that you finally receive cash you earned earlier (perhaps even under a previous retrograde cycle).
You need to keep a really close eye on your finances under this cycle – including what you thought you’d already sorted out. Money due in might just as easily be delayed; you could have an unexpected expense come up, or you could overlook something in your budget or miscalculate. What’s for sure is that Mercury retrograde in your 2nd House potentially plays havoc with your cash flow. It helps if you put a little aside in advance.
If you feel less confident and a little unsure of yourself under this cycle, maybe you’ve been clinging onto things you no longer need. Things that no longer support who you are today. If something doesn’t make you feel safe, secure and happy, it may be time to replace it with something else or just let it go.
Top three affirmations: These affirmations are designed to help you make the most of Mercury retrograde in your 2nd House. Choose one and repeat it all day, then choose another and repeat that, then choose the third and go with that. Repeat often.

After the retrograde, Mercury resumes normal transmission and goes forwards again, which means some of the financial confusion should be about to ease up. Mercury has been retrograde in your 2nd House of cash, property and possessions. If you’ve been going two steps forwards and one step back where any or all of those subjects are concerned, you can thank Mercury! As Mercury changes direction, expect (allow for) one last blast of financial mayhem. And after that? Your finances should start to make more sense, there will be fewer annoying glitches when it comes to dealing with money, and if you’re trying to buy or sell something, you can expect a lot less weirdness.
