Soul Food-Here Comes Mercury Retrograde
Tomorrow, May 29th, Mercury is about to go Retrograde at 24* Gemini, 3:34pm/PDT & 6:34pm/EDT.
A planet in retrograde can emphasize predestined events, unsolved issues from the past, wrong actions,
unforeseen changes, all kinds of blockages, frustrations, aggravations in some spheres of life.
Let’s not forget that Mercury is the “spiritual guide” and the retrogradation period can show us the way to our soul.
This Mercury Retrograde happens to be squaring Neptune, along with Venus, I highly recommend cleaning those rose-colored glasses of yours because it will be easier than normal to become dazed and confused. Deception is in the air with communications and your love life.
That Romero you’re smitten with could very well be a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I would also keep an eye on your bank account, this is definitely NOT the time to go for pie-in-the-sky schemes. I’d stay away from betting the horses and stay away from the slot machines. NO, don’t go to Vegas, who cares if the airlines are offering a flight to Vegas for the price of a gallon of gasoline, (at least the last time I checked). Keep an extra vigilance on your diet at this time also, you might want to rent a Dobermen for the next three weeks to stand guard over your refrigerator, just saying.
Here’s your Mercury Retrograde Survival Guide:
DON’TS: (let’s get these out of the way)
- don’t install new software, or decide to completely overhaul your computer (you’re not the Geek Squad) & even if you are, this is NOT the time to do it
- watch your words, this is the time when people tend to “open mouth, insert foot, or whole leg” and for God’s sake; don’t drunk text or FB after doing shots of Tequila, it’s bad enough when we do it without the
Retrograde - double-check, triple check, all documents, emails, posts, and appointments, you don’t want to end up in Tijuana, when your friend said Topanga, or if you’re in Ohio, the same thing you don’t want to end up stranded in Kinsman when you’re friend is waiting for you in Kirkland
- don’t sign any important contracts or start a new job
- hold off signing on the dotted line for that new house or your new Lincoln
- planes, trains, & automobiles; if at all possible hold off travel, if you must, triple check everything; be extra careful with keys, batteries, tires
- HOLD OFF on trying new daring adventures at this time, if you’ve never climbed Mt. Everest this isn’t the time to decide you’re going to make a name for yourself, (unless you want the headlines to read “first-time climber found missing in avalanche”)…also don’t throw yourself in front of a train just to prove it’s not your “time” to go, (that’s just called ‘dumb-ass’)
DO’S:
- reassess, redo, relax, rejuvenate, redesign, rethink, reapply, reflect,
- reconnect with old friends from the past, and don’t be surprised if an ex-lover shows up at your door, this is meant for a reason so healing can happen and then the two of you can move forward, (or get back together) however I feel it’s the former
- reorganize your closets, your files
- rewrite that novel you started months ago
- revisit that project you abandoned (I have a few of those)
- something hidden is revealed, be open and aware
THE EXCEPTION:
- If you have a “history” with something then it’s OK to sign the deal on a house you have a history with (you put a bid on it months ago, you babysat the neighbors kids in that house, etc.)
- if you’re old boss (whom you liked) is at a new company & offers you a job
- if you’re in sales, cars, real estate etc. look up former clients you have an established “history” with
- you started building a website & put quite a bit of work into it, then let it sit for months
