I BELIEVE I have found the secret to WHY Mercury goes RETROGRADE!Last edited Wed Dec 12, 2012, 07:44 PM USA/ET - Edit history (1)
Imho, MANY of us had hints at the answer in our recent discussion. Then, I came across the BEST book I have ever read about Chiron by S. African, Melanie Reinhart, "Chiron and the Healing Journey: An Astrological and Pychological Perspective"
When she was talking about having Chiron in the 3rd house or in Gemini, BOOM, there it was. And as you know, I was persistent about finding out why. Many of you said it in similar words, but once one brings into account the "Trickster" side of Mercury (Bob Dylan), it all made sense to me. Read this over and see what you think. There are 2 2-page-scan.pdf files on my webisite. See what you all think and thank you all for chippping in. I'm now convinced. pant pant pant http://www.starself.com/class/mercuryrx1.pdf http://www.starself.com/class/mercuryrx2.pdf

1. Ego.

The prevention of the fulfillment of the ego? Is that it? This is very interesting Rick!
Mercury X as a correction? |

2. I think it is somewhat ego
|
but more of a shake us out of our rigid concepts of reality, the Trickster is the secret. He makes black what is white, etc.
Listen to Dylan interviews, that says it all. Dylan IS Mercury Rx. He EFFFs with you so you don't make the mistake of taking a rigid stance thinking you have it all figured out, or, moreover, thinking that any thought or set of thoughts could contain it all. That's what I was looking for and it was right under my moustache. Typical Trickster. My at-the-moment conclusion is that Merc Rx will Efff with you the more rigid you are mentally. We'll have to watch and see. Her book is just phenomenal on Chiron |

3. Great downloads! Thanks for posting!

What this makes me think about is the the mind is an instrument capable of touching/reaching the Infinite, but like the finger pointing at the moon, it is not the moon. If you rigidly think you have things figured out, Merc Rx exists to broaden your view and show you the other half you are missing. Best to relax and enjoy the show of maya/illusion.

7. A thought I had about The Twins.
|
There's so much about polarity or cycles in everything of life here on Earth.
It seems that the twins could be the yin/yang- the evil/good, the list goes on. Maybe the Twins are..The Father and The Child? But here's something else I thought of...with opposing views, opposing whatever, I think the energy wants to lean toward...the balance itself,...the middle of the road.. The Middle Note... The place where we become one or are united? The Trickster is playing both sides to bring us to the balancing act of the middle unity. |
