The Mercury Retrograde in
Scorpio began on October 31 11:41 am EDT and 8:41 am PDT. It ends on Sunday November 20th
at 2:12 pm EST and 11:12 am PST. I’m sorry for such late notice but recent losses of my father, a
close friend and one more in hospice I’ve been somewhat overwhelm.
The zodiac sign Scorpio, whose ruling planet is
Pluto, strive for transformation, regeneration and renewal. Scorpios are lead
by their desires and passion. At their best, Scorpios are committed, resourcefulness and bravery. At their worst Scorpios are
possessive, jealous and vengeful
The planet
Mercury, in astrology, governs thought, communications, ideas, short term
travel and reasoning. It represents the way we think, communicate and share our
ideas. It embodies how we impart information and share our knowledge.
This retrogrades focus is based
on your desires and may require a re-evaluate about your feelings about your
urges and desires. What do you want? The passions for what you want will be
stoked through these next three weeks. How you may fulfill these desires might
be quite another matter. It will spend the Whole of it’s time in Scorpio.
Retrogrades tend to require
recognition and exploration of their "themes" based along the
astrological sign it's transiting. the nature of this transit may have you
searching desires, especially hidden
desires, long dormant passion coming to surface. Desires are often elusive and
this particular transit may serve as a spur towards making an effort to fulfill
them. Restoration of hope and the power
of renewal are the hallmarks of this transit. “Follow your bliss” as J.
Campbell would say.
As Scorpio, the sign and Pluto,
it's ruler are all about procreation and regeneration, this time may provide an
antidotes to issues in the romance department or overall change in an existing
relationship, for better or worse . Pluto, Scorpio's ruling planet is Lord of
consequence, so if you start with less than honorable intentions in any area of
your life don't be surprised at the instant karma effect. Power plays and
politicking may boomerang if you don't employ caution. Striving for clarity and
open communication as this retrograde tends with work against Scorpio usual
secretive ways. View this retrograde as a period of very powerful personal
transformation.
The Full Moon in Taurus on the
12th may make for some intense moments so working being grounded and
being in grounding activities as much as possible. Understand that lust
for results may cause you to get fixated on a specific outcome and compel you
to strive to do it in the next few weeks. Avoid such impulses, instead let this
be a time you reflect upon past matters and whether they are worthy of
regeneration. See this as a time to get fired up but not necessarily a time to
start. Find your passion again and rekindling it is a big part of one’s work
here. Remember, Retrogrades often delay the very subject matter they're focused
on, so prepare with an eye for the future.
Taurus, A time of activity and demand may be
upon you. This period may prove very productive but you’ll have to work on
stuff you’d rather avoid. Use your legendary patience to see you through.
Scorpio, enjoy a moment of pause and
re-positioning. If you have needed a little time out, here may be a time for a
vacation or retreat that may offer valuable time to think. Figure out what
matters to you and re-invest in it.
Leo and Aquarius,
jettison things, attitudes and views that are dead or dying are no longer true
to your life. These adjustment will require your attention but you’ll find it
time well spent.
As
with all retrogrades, communication, thoughts and planning can be greatly
altered resulting in delays and postponement of important activities. Because
it can affects spoken communications, written text, email messages, etc expect
challenges when sharing information.
Mercury, which also governs
short range travel, may throw you a few curves in terms of journeys and trips,
so you are advised to be patience with any travel setbacks. In fact, patience
and humor are often the best way to negotiate any retrograde. Time spent in
spiritual practices and creative endeavors during this transit should prove
quite fruitful (work on things that you’ve set aside or put to the back
burner). Metaphysical works and divinations tend to do well under the
benevolence of the Mercury Retrograde
If Mercury retrograde in
Scorpio is our desires and ways to fulfill them. Ride out the retrograde and
trust your strengths and powers to lead to the hidden answers this transit
offers.
