Retrograde Inspiration
Erin Trumble
The Negative Series, Daniel Taylor
When we hear “retrograde” the first thing we think about is all the bad shit that’s about to happen. During this season of so many planets in retrograde (Saturn, Jupiter, and Venus are all doing their backwards dance) I am trying to reframe the way I see things. While the dictionary does define retrograde as moving backwards, I’m viewing it as an opportunity revisit things from the past, pick up old projects, and update some beloved jewelry designs.
Years ago I played with a necklace design that featured a raw stone floating inside of a brass ring. It was a very popular style and I’d always dreamed of one day jazzing it up and bringing it back. For the retrograde collection I choose a bolder and more refined stone, settling on labradorite. It seemed like the perfect choice.
why?
Labradorite is used against negativity and gives you a realistic view of life. It stimulates your consciousness, strengthens intuition, reduces anxiety, and gives you confidence.
Planets in retrograde are actually an optical illusion, so remember that while things may seem to be moving backwards, they are really on the path to moving forwards. Protect your energy within your own orbit by creating a shield from negativity. Purify your own energy by always looking towards the light, and take this time for some inner reflection.
I am so excited for the late July release of the Retrograde Collection. A mini collection featuring shapes that are drawn from orbiting planets, guiding points, and looking inwards. This will be a limited release and when they are gone they are gone for good.
