Here we go, prepare for about 3 weeks of illusion when the Little Trickster (Mercury is a trickster when he 's retrograde) walks backwards once again for our entertainment. All will be illusionary, the good, the bad, AND the weird! Enjoy the moment!!
My experience is that a retrograde acts something like going"Spirit-Wise" around a medicine wheel (counter clockwise). When this is done, it is said the person is in the "spirit world", and to return, must travel "sunwise" again. I've noticed that, for instance, Mercury retrograde is a poor time for anything envolving travel and communication on the PHYSICAL plane, but the SPIRITUAL dimensions of what this planet represents can become DEEPER AND MORE INTENSE!
So now I'd like to hear about your "Retro-Experiences".
Government social workers have huge caseloads growing by the hour: People who are applying for assistance because they can't make ends meet. People who had jobs, homes, cars, families, businesses just last year.
I know because I am one of those displaced people...I can't believe who I see at the foodbanks these days. Some of the luckier ones still have homes, some live in their vehicle, the unlucky are on the street.
So what theif knocked us in the head and stole our Golden New Age?
Was ther a glitch in the proggy? Where did we zig when we should have zagged?
There has been much speculation about exactly when this shift happened.
I know I have my own views about it, but I feel the need for discretion in an increasingly paranoid atmosphere. Yes, I like to keep my site on-line. Can you blame me?
But as a philosopher I must say that I see more than one side of the situation. Some of my friends insist I predicted 9-11 in my own wyrd way.
