Mercury Retrograde

Mars only goes retrograde every 25 months, unlike Mercury that goes retrograde 3 times a year. But he too can bring his own challenges. Mars, the energizer bunny and motivator, is joining the retrograde party with Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto and Uranus, creating tension and frustration; as if we haven’t had enough of that already this year. And then Mercury will be going retrograde on Oct. 13th; stationing direct on election day. Now that is another story which I will talk about later…. This retrograde can generally be frustrating because it tends to hinder your self-expression and makes it harder to […]

The stage was set December 26, 2019 with the new moon, solar eclipse in Capricorn. This was about getting in touch with our roots and our foundation. Jupiter, the expander, Saturn, the taskmaster and Pluto, the transformer, were also dancing through Capricorn. This powerful planetary combustion gave us a preview of what was to come.

This can be a very productive and enlightening time….. When Mercury is traveling through Cancer and especially when it is retrograde, it activates our feelings and our ability to trust our instinct and values. If we have been ignoring this aspect of our nature it will now demand our attention. Circumstances will arise that will bring this into the forefront. You may tend to want to be alone and more introspective. This is not a particularly social retrograde cycle, it is much more introspective and self-evaluating. This is a great time to re-group, re-visit, re-process, re-read, and re-evaluate. You are […]

Love and Hate Tension is high The lunar eclipse increases your sex drive but sexual or competitive tension can cause a lack of self-control, impulsiveness, anger, and conflict. Compromise will help avoid hostility, but a tendency to agree to anything just to get your way could lead to buried anger, frustration, loss, and regret. If dating, sexy action is possible but take care not to lower your standards or put yourself at risk because of your impatient. In a healthy relationship, tension can be relieved through more exhilarating sexual activity. But in a difficult relationship this could bring challenges to […]
