So here we go again..!!

You would think by this time we would have caught onto the whole Mercury Retrograde thing by now... Hehe... But no, I decide to do some computer upgrades... I did the majority of the work this past week knowing this energy was quickly approaching... And sure enough, the things I've done a thousand times somehow wouldn't work... But then the 'learning' began... The old ways no longer worked because there were better and more efficient ways available.

In reality, Mercury Retrograde is the reminder we need to 'remain in the moment'... Not to get 'fixed' or 'limited' by our conditions or circumstances... It reminds us that time slips past us rather quickly, so we should make the most of our current moments... So when we look back we have no regrets.

With all that said, remaining in the moment can be very beneficial... Driving down the road earlier today for some unknown reason a car suddenly stopped and it could have turned into a 5 car pile-up... Fortunately I was focused on what I was doin'... Spiked the brakes (even before the automatic brake kicked in) and barely missed the car in front of me... That is the kind of things I write about... Where we have to 'expect the unexpected' because people do bone-headed things under these conditions.

It's not just a retro Mercury we are dealing with... This is one of those rare times when ALL of the planet (except Venus and Mars) are retrograde... That 'remain in the moment' is a classic Venus/Mars vibe... Sorta-kinda like lovers who know as long as they're together they'll somehow get by... The idea is to handle what we can today because tomorrow will likely have it's own challenges.

That's it for now...
Thanks for stoppin' by..!!
I'll talk to you guys later...
Keep the Faith... Better Days and Higher Love are comin' soon...

The weekly horoscope for Virgo has the kind of energy that requires you to 'stand tall' and to take time to fully appreciate what you already have because the emphasis is on what true 'value'... With Mercury retrograde in your solar 2nd House, the emphasis is on re-assessing your goals, wants and desires... The emphasis is on 'lasting quality'... There can be waves of strong emotions you will have to deal with... The key is to remain 'cool and calm' without making issues more complicated than they need to be!!

...Show some Love...
