There Goes Mercury Retrograde Again!

Arwen · 11-03-2012, 08:09 PM

Mercury turns retrograde November 6 at 4 Sagittarius
Mercury turns direct November 26 at 18 Scorpio

With the November Mercury Retrograde, the major issues of making choices to pursue our spiritual purpose and passion provides the focus for the revisions. The issue of Saturn moving into Scorpio sets the stage for the November Mercury retrograde emphasizing the Scorpio elements as well as the Sagittarius factors of setting goals and directions according to the inner core essence. Motives, ethics and values become the issues as we are on the threshold of major change and transition regarding our direction, beliefs and purpose. See full article here.

Tripple Scorp, I'm right at home.

Oh wow, thanks for the heads up Arwen...

Fastening my seat belt...

I knew it! I flippin' KNEW it!

Soooo, this means not only are we going to experience retrograde during the holidays, when we're forced to be with people we spend all year avoiding but we're having a national election too?!?

Oh, yeah.

I'm going to need a lot of one or both of the above this month.

Oh JFC! FFS! You mean it's not already in retrograde?! I hope everyone makes it through ok...

I was thinking it had already happened. Suddenly, almost everyone W/we know is having car problems, the prime example being the husband of a colleague of O/ours who just wrote off their car by accidentally pressing on the acceleration pedal and ramming the entrance of a bank. (The girls inside thought it was a raid, pressed the alarm button, and minutes later there's a police helicopter hovering overhead and police cars by the dozen pulling up outside.)

If the last few days are anything to go by, I'm dreading what's to come.

Hi Arwen. This is interesting to me because things have been crazy in my life recently. Do major changes or shifts happen during these times? Is it always bad? Is it a shake up time and things that are shook up rearrange themselves into something better? That is what I am hoping. I had a major paradigm shift with a sibling this week and I am hoping that it will continue and flourish. Thank you!

it's hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i am going to just embrace it

When Mercury is in retrograde that is when I find the "lucky penny" I have misplaced.
The conversation I could not have before is now capable.
Im MORE articulate.
My world makes more sense.

Why would that be?
