Mercury ended its retrograde phase yesterday Wednesday, May
3. What a relief. This particular retrograde period
seemed very tedious and difficult. I moved from Texas to Arkansas in early
April while Venus was retrograde.
Then Mercury went retrograde on April 9th. If it wasn’t one thing, it was
something else! Will we ever get
unpacked and organized? It hasn’t
happened yet! Mercury retrograde
was so frustrating I was ready to spit!
Car problems, misplaced items,
and AT&T put my new customer installation payment into the wrong
account and almost turned off my internet….yes one thing after another. Well, we can relax, kind of relax.
Mercury has been transiting through the sign of Aries. At the end of April, Mercury made an
alignment with planet Uranus, ruler of upsets, surprises and revolutions. If
this twosome affected your chart, you had days like I had: unpredictable and aggravating.
Hopefully you didn’t lose your lease or have a car wreck. The nerve wracking, out of control
energy of Mercury and Uranus continues until mid-May.
The energy of Mercury and Uranus doing tricks together
demands that we pay attention to what we are doing. Mercury and Uranus are a little too prone to accidents. I am
living in a new area. I have yet to talk on my phone while driving. Whatever we are doing, we need to give
it our attention and not try to multitask as much as usual.
On May 15, Mercury steps into the sign of Taurus. Hopefully
this will have a calming effect. Taurus is down to earth and takes one step at
a time. Until then, don’t blame yourself if you feel like a nervous
maniac. If you feel powerless over
all the upsets in your plans, try to relax and breathe. This too shall pass (I
hope).
The next Mercury retrograde period begins in
mid-August. Hopefully I will get all
my boxes unpacked before Mercury whacks me again.
