MERCURY GOES DIRECT IN CAPRICORN:
On Wednesday January 18th at 8:12 A.M. EST it’s finally safe to go back into the waters of life. Mercury retrogrades three times a year, and we can make too much of it, the same way that some areas freak out when it snows a little. In New England it can drop a foot of the white stuff and most people shrug, get into their cars, and head out to do errands. In Washington D.C. or Atlanta and inch or two is a calamity. So it can be with astrological transits. Some people take them in stride, others freak out. Now that Mercury is going forward again we can catch up on things that have lagged. Some secrets will be revealed, and misinformation will come to light. Keep your mind and ears open and don’t be so stubborn that you ignore what is being offered because of a preconceived idea. Because this retrograde took place in Capricorn this is a moment to examine what you’re doing in business and professional pursuits, and just what your goals are. If you feel you’re on the right path, then full speed ahead. But if you’re not sure and want a little time to look things over, that’s just what this aspect is all about. Take the time to reexamine your priorities and make certain that you are heading on the right path. When Mercury changes direction it’s a chance to shift gears or take another road. We will all be concerned with our stability, finances and long-term plans. Of course the credit card bills will be begin to arrive soon – that sobering moment when you realize just how much you spent over the holidays. My advice is to take it in stride and don’t freak out.
Aw, this was an exceptionally good post. Spending some time and actual effort to produce
a really good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate a whole lot and don’t manage to get nearly anything done.
