And so it begins...
Most astrologers get it wrong (my opinion) when they go on and on about Mercury retrograde... Yeah, I know they are partially right, and even I dog it from time to time when Mercury is retrograde... But make no mistake about it... The most important time is when Mercury races ahead of the Sun because that is where things get screwed up and there are floods of mis-communications that somehow come back at us.

Work with me on this...
I need 2 new front tires for my car... Was quoted $221, but the final bill was $640... HUH?... I could go into a long rant about that, but I'll spare ya's... hehe... So while my car is in the shop, I get in my pickup truck that I rarely drive and get the corner of my street and the brake pedal goes all the way to the floor... Another $600... The mail comes, and in it is the School Tax bill for thousands of dollars... And I won't even go into the kitchen remodel stories... Geeshka, I feel like the mole in the carnival "Whack-A-Mole game" fercrissakes... hehe...

This too shall pass...
Yes, Mercury retrograde can cause all kinds of problems with mis-communications and problems with items that deal with transportation and communication... But the real danger-zone is when Mercury starts to race ahead of the Sun... (like it is doing right now)... This is when each of us needs to be extra careful and aware of what others are doing... Especially when driving or communicating because chances are high if there is a lesson to be learned, it will happen under these circumstances... Geeshka, after the past few days I am going to go searching for Gilligan's Island and live there with the palm trees, bananas and play guitar all day.

Anyway... At least I can find the humor in it all... That is a lot easier to do when deep inside I know this all is happening for a reason... That by stopping what I am doing and making sure these core issues are repaired or replaced that I may in fact be preventing something major from happening... My brakes failing on my street with no traffic could have been a lot worse had I gotten on the highway and they let go when I was at a high rate of speed... So for that, I am very thankful!!

That's it for now... I'll talk to you guys tomorrow...

Keep the Faith... Better Days and Higher Love are comin' soon...
