In The Stars – Mercury Goes Direct!

Mercury Goes Direct as We Head into Fall
Hooray – Mercury is going direct! After the last three weeks of Mercury in retrograde – it is again time to move forward and take action!
As it began it’s retrograde cycle in Libra – the planet ruling relationships – you may have noticed particular strain in terms of your partnerships in your life. Take some time to reflect on what may have been miscommunication and consider checking in with those who you have not seen eye to eye with during this time. With the sun in Libra, it’s a good time to keep open to how to best connect in those one-on-one relationships.
As we enter into fall, this is a great time to take a breath and consider what we’ve been growing over the summer and what we are harvesting now. Summer provides much opportunity to connect with those who we may not have seen for a while in larger or gatherings as well as a time to take in new landscapes and get out in nature or on vacations. Now it is time to look into what needs to be “finished up” so that we can prepare for the more internal restful and contemplative qualities that winter will bring.
So take a drive in the Gorge to celebrate the colors or visit a corn maze or pumpkin patch and breathe in the crispness of the fall! Consider inviting the person with whom you may have had a bit of retrograded Mercury friction and let this reflective time allow you to reconnect.
Mercury Retrograde

Mercury Retrograde, what does it mean?
This cycle happens three or four times every year, when the planet Mercury slows down and appears to move backward.
Mercury in a chart rules communication of all kinds.
When Mercury is retrograde, more awareness is needed regarding email, voice mail, computers, phones, faxes, etc…
Miscommunication is common, hence the need for more awareness
and patience with yourself and others. It is definitely a more contemplative time of reevaluation; think of words that begin with ‘re’. Renew, restore, refresh, review.
This will be an approximately three week period of review in your life.
Mercury Retrograde dates for 2009
January 11th-31st; May 6th-30th; September 6th-29th; December 26th-January 15th, 2010
