Mercury’s Reflection in Pisces & Aquarius, 06 to 28 February 2014

Being in awareness about Mercury’s Approach & The 5 Things You Need To Know, are you now ready for some necessary retreat and yes, relax time to officially begin at 4:43pm EST, 06 February?

Reaping the “RE” Reward Under Mercury Retrograde
Remember, this is the true time to get our dictionaries out and revel in the “re” action words, for Mercury’s backwards motion from 03 degrees Pisces back to 18 degrees of Aquarius will only cause resistance if we do not heed this mighty call. As we start off this necessary rest period, Mercury stations on Neptune in Pisces, asking for an extreme request to truly listen carefully, being Neptune is a planet that affects deception and hidden things. Choosing mindfulness and moving very slowly will allow anyone to not get caught up in the chaotic courses that will be swirling around us. Taking a true silent trip where Pisces personally guides our lives will also offer up wonderful rewards.

As Mercury re-enters Aquarius on 12 February, expect completely unpredictable and at times shocking occurrences to be a natural part of the movement you will encounter until 28 February. Many will sense a lack of warmth and imagination wherever Aquarius lives within their personal natal chart under Retrograde, demanding the mastering to take extra pause within our moments so we can find ways to respond in calm to the changes that will be displaying themselves around us.

Double Layer Cake of Reflection Begins 14 February
Be on the look out for your Lunar-O-Scope 14 February, Full Moon in Leo, which will also be roaring with reflection from the opposing area of our lives, as another waning phase begins. As this normal and natural time of the month for reassessment decreases the lunar light once more, under Mercury Retrograde, the calling for review becomes more intense. Further responsibility to slow down, work, and learn from the experiences will have us all notice profound feelings around that will relate the need for dynamic understanding within any partnership. The Moon Void of Course periods over 14 to 28 February equally cast off a “triple layer cake” of reflective request.

Believe Mercury Retrograde Doesn’t Affect You? LOL, Think Again!
Those wishing to react and remain in resistance to the normal flux of changes that Mercury’s “vacation mode” causes involving our schedules, routines, communications, information exchanges and any mechanism that moves- deciding instead to go forward with long term plans- will find themselves with intense lessons to learn. Anyone’s fee will choosing otherwise certainly will be coined the definition of insanity, because if we do not choose the path of review and reflection, we’ll be ignoring what we are meant to be learning from the valuable reassessment experiences that this passage always presents to us.

Beneficial time can be wisely spent getting all unfinished business within these areas of our lives reassessed, reviewed, and rehashed. What old projects are not done here? What can you research? What have you forgotten about? Who haven’t you spoken to from this area in your life in a while? Revisiting what has already been placed in motion, reconnecting with the past- clearing it up, opens the doors to make way for new beginnings that will be much safer to make once the passage concludes.

To Do and Not To Do Under Mercury Retrograde
Remain in the eye of any possible storm around you, as the genuine request for listening and a patience pace is all the more required under this Mercury Rx round of review. These handy tips can help bring ease over this upcoming period to allow personal success to be reaped!

DO:
*Expect CHANGE: in travel, routines, communications & schedules to occur suddenly
*Give yourself extra time to get where you’re going
*Back-up information, replace or upgrade technology already in place
*Spend time in the RE’s:
Relax, Rest, Reread, Rewrite, Revisit, Reconnect, Reflect, Redo, Recharge!
*Have Plan B (and Plan C, D or even E if necessary) always ready to go
*Gravitate to Responding vs. Reacting!

DON’T:
*“Freak out” when changes come up
*Rush: speaking, driving, whatever involves movement in your life
A great practice is to take pause & count to 10 before doing anything!
*Sign important documents
*Initiate or buy anything new that you wish to have long-term success with.
ie: Get married, start a relationship, business, adventure.

When to Slowly Move Forward Under The Shadow
As the Approach began 22 January, when Mercury was last at the 18 degree Aquarius point he will return to by 28 February, we started to see what we will be called to truly reflect and reassess under the Retrograde passage itself. Until 20 March, we are under the Shadow period, where it will take Mercury this much time to retrace his backwards steps until he is back over that 03 degrees of Pisces once more. And Viola! We’ll be complete for another review session where our Messenger is concerned until late Spring 2014. Know, under the Shadow, it is safe to move forward once more, but do be sure to still take on an air of caution and make sure the details involved are the way you wish them to be.

Lexigrams and Mercury Retrograde
One last piece of star secret advice comes from the wisdom of Lexigrams, what’s really in a name. As we poetically phrase the anagrams we can derive from any word, name, or in this case, title: we can spell out the truth that leads us to also discover what we are best to do under this passage called Mercury Retrograde to find our resolve within it.
