Mainly Moonology with Yasmin Boland Why This Week Feels Mentally Heavy and What Will Help | MMP S 1 E 150
This week brings some mentally challenging astrology, especially around communication, focus, and decision-making. If you’ve been feeling blocked, foggy, or overwhelmed, you’re not imagining it.
In this episode, I walk you through why this week may feel tougher as it unfolds, what’s happening astrologically to create that pressure, and most importantly, how to work with the energy rather than fighting it.
While there are some tricky Mercury aspects coming up, the bigger picture is actually supportive. These transits are helping us process the year that’s ending, clear mental clutter, and prepare emotionally for what’s ahead. Nothing here is a punishment. It’s a pause. A sorting out. A recalibration.
I also talk about the Cancer Full Moon on January 3, which acts as an emotional checkpoint and an invitation to feel first, then act.
As always, the focus is not on fear or overwhelm, but on reassurance, timing, and self-trust.
In this episode, I cover
• How this week is likely to feel emotionally and mentally
• Why communication and mindset may feel harder as the week goes on
• The key Mercury aspects influencing clarity, focus, and conversations
• Why mental blocks and confusion are part of processing the year, not a sign you’re behind
• How this energy may show up in everyday life
• What to do and what not to do with this week’s astrology
• How the Cancer Full Moon supports emotional truth and inner safety
• Why you don’t need to have everything figured out yet
Astrology highlights
• Mercury harmonising with Chiron brings opportunities for healing conversations
• Mercury squaring Saturn can feel mentally heavy or restrictive
• Mercury squaring Neptune may create foggy thinking or confusion
• The Cancer Full Moon on January 3 helps us release, reflect, and reset emotionally

Final thought
This is not a week to force clarity or push for answers. It’s a week to be gentle with your mind, take things one step at a time, and trust that you’re moving through a meaningful transition.
You’re not behind. You’re simply in process.
