Reclaiming Language & Mercury’s Role in Communication

Language is power. For Navajo and Puebloan people, our languages connect us to land, ceremony, and each other. But through colonization, many Indigenous languages have been erased or suppressed. This isn’t just history—it’s still happening. Schools prioritize English, and many Native youth grow up without fluency in their ancestral tongues. When we lose our languages, we lose parts of ourselves. Mercury, the planet of communication, is key to reclaiming what’s been lost. Right now, with a New Moon in Capricorn, we’re being asked to set intentions for long-term goals. Capricorn energy is steady, disciplined, and built for the long haul. Pair that with Aquarius placements in our natal charts, which challenge outdated systems, and we have the perfect moment to rethink how we speak, learn, and share our stories. One solution? Community-led language revitalization. Instead of relying on institutions that historically failed us, we can create our own spaces—like online groups, cultural gatherings, and even TikTok lessons—to pass down our words. A single red speck in the sky doesn’t dim the stars, and one small action can spark a movement. The Journey Towards V collective is part of this movement, offering space for spiritual awakening, collaboration, and decolonizing the way we connect. Language is energy. Let’s reclaim it together.
