About Retrograde

When planets are in retrograde motion, they appear to be moving backwards but do not physically do so. Communication feels stagnant, motivation is deterred, and self-esteem hits an all time low. However, this is also a time to recognize areas to evolve and find inner insight on our wants and needs. In this chaos there is room to feel, and room to grow. Retrograde is an exploration of finding lessons in the chaos. Each poem displays the journey to move forward, but also the many moments of feeling stuck and moving backward. Divided into three sections, Anjé explores hurt and anger, romance and healing, love and joy. Through her fiery Sag moon, her Libra exes, and her quirky Cancer sun, she describes her journey away from the hurt and towards a better place for herself.
