Mercury retrograde is 'killing' me, and its not even 'here' yet!
Gazillions of 'things' happened and happening, don't EVER remember such a dynamic demonstration of the event's power! FORTUNATELY I returned from road trip safely, but not counting on much more!

To others, too, 2 of my nearest and dearest. Anyone here notice?

HOLY COWS!

2. Intense is the word
And ellen, you may not WANT Mercury retrograde to kill you, but you just said it. Rephrasing that may help the situation.

3. I don't think it's from Mercury Retrograde
Edited on Thu Dec-09-10 12:16 PM by Ricochet21
I believe it's mostly from Mars approaching Pluto in early Capricorn for everyone. Mars issues have to do with "are we being assertive enough in defining our own boundaries." If not, the the combination can manifest in an unfriendly way.

Long-held issues, that won't go away are resurfacing once again. This is much bigger than our toasters or DVRs, these issues will only intensify through the 13th and return around the 21st. These are big turning points. Stand your ground. Stand in your truth. Those are the best ways through this. Watch around you - you'll see this entire dynamic playing out. Good luck to all! :hi:

ONCE AGAIN:

12/3 Mars squares Uranus 9:01a – Get ready for Mars. Here, it squares the Uranus/Jupiter conjunction in late Pisces. This will encourage us once again to go for it. Unfortunately, this will be short-lived as Mars prepares to JOIN PLUTO for the first time since Christmas of 2008 in just a few days. Mars-Uranus is reckless: make sure you are not “going for it” just to escape other long time built up tensions that Pluto is forcing us all to face. Yes, do what you can to liberate yourself, but remember, none of us can run from ourselves. Pluto is making sure of that.

12/5 New Moon 13°SAG 28’ 12:36p AND Uranus goes Direct! 8:51p – This will be major. See the article above. The Revolution of 5/27/10 RESUMES… This will max out on 3/11/11!

12/7 Mars enters Capricorn 6:49p – Uh oh, here we go. Mars enters early Capricorn where Pluto has set up camp. Mars will encourage Pluto to blow sky high. Do NOT take nuclear matters lightly now. This represents a very serious turning point. Also, in terms of the general long-term decay that Pluto has uprooted: look for more to tumble, more to fall. To use these energies in a positive way; start cleaning up the old stuff. I know it sounds so repetitive, but Mars wants action. Together, Mars and Pluto are very insistent, even violent. Use these promptings to urge yourself to “clean up your act.” There is no simple way to say this. These two mean business and will be the dominant planetary forces through 12/13.

12/10 Mercury goes Retrograde 7:06a – In the midst of all this Sun/Mars/Pluto in Capricorn we get to deal with our stoned messenger boy. As always, make your appointments and agreements slowly and with care. That really helps. I finally have come to a point that I believe that the intention of Mercury Retrograde is to get us to slow down and be more careful and deliberate.

12/7-13 Mars conjuncts Pluto – Very Dangerous – As stated above, this Mars conjunction Pluto will demand action. This is how it is: you act or someone will force you to do so. It ain’t pretty, and neither are Mars or Pluto. What do they want? Are they mean? No, not really. They want you to bust through obstacles in your evolutionary path. No matter what form they have taken. If you do so, the field of possibilities opened up by these two will make it worth your stress and hardship. Pluto = let go, Pluto = let go.

12/16-18 Sun squares Jupiter & Uranus – After all this heavy-duty angst stirred up by dark Pluto, this will bring us welcome relief, albeit temporary. Raise your head up from the clouds and look at the new possibilities in front of you. If you have not let go during the Pluto time, you may not be able to see through the smoke.

12/21 Lunar Eclipse 29°GEM 21’ 3:13a – This one should be visible on a cloudless night. It will trigger all the planets in early cardinal signs and the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in late Pisces. Wow!

12/21 Sun enters Capricorn 6:39p – Just 3 hour after the eclipse… Kaboom, the Sun triggers the entire transiting Cardinal T-square, i.e., Jupiter and Uranus nearing 0 Aries, Saturn in early Libra, and Pluto and Mars in Capricorn. Take your life seriously now. I don’t care if the calendar says it’s “Christmas” or not. The planets are trying to tell us – serious matters need serious attention. Where do you stand in this world? That is what Capricorn energies ask? If you don’t like what you have become, this along with the annual “New Year’s Resolutions” couldn’t come at a more perfect time.

12/25-26 Sun conjuncts Pluto – More triggers. Every time transiting Pluto gets conjuncted, opposed, or squared it’s going to set off the kinetic tensions storing up in Pluto. Kapow! Santa might be on a rocket-sled! It’s not going to be all cookies and milk, I tell you. All of the power of the 12/21 eclipse will be released on Christmas day as the Sun comes within 1° of Pluto. We’d better be watching our borders too.

12/30 Mercury goes Direct 2:21a – Just in time for the New Year’s party. At least our GPS will be working correctly now.

8. What unbelievable timing.
I have a court hearing on the 13th for custody of our son. Ah, well, nothing to do but roll with it and remain receptive.

9. Exactly
I wonder what's going on in the early degrees of Capricorn in the EXs chart?
It's all interconnected. Amazing, good luck!

5. Last Friday
I got a rejection. Yay.

Even better, I entered two manuscripts in a competition hosted by the guild romance authors belong to, aka Romance Writers of America. They had to be in the offices by 5:00 PM on December 2nd. Both manuscripts were in the same box. One was "checked in" on Monday, November 30th, and the other vanished into thin air. It was disqualified.

After a phone call to the contest coordinator, the missing manuscript was located, and things were fine. I was wondering, though, if it was already Mercury retrograde!

7. I watched a package go backward at the UPS tracking site!
Seriously--it started in Ohio, came to our city, and then went BACK to another city in Ohio! :crazy:

Well, at least there's more time to get it back this way before Christmas...
:rofl:

10. If there was anything
that could break or not work properly today was the day. I remember saying aloud - "Is Mercury Retrograde?" Not sure when he really goes, but ... dang! This has been an intense day. Certainly don't want it repeated.

Cliff Notes Version:

communications/machinery screwups, that's Mercury Rx

Massive cloud over our heads intensity that has been going on for 3 years and has 15 more to go, That's Pluto (with Mars at the moment)

Confusion, everything's nuts: that's Neptune/Chiron

Revolution in your basement, that's Uranus

12. My desktop died today. The one I use to do graphic work.
I am praying that it is not serious; it's at the 'doctor' now. Hopefully just a power issue. The graphics are the only work I do that brings money into the house. This is quite worrying.

13. Dearest
Mercury Rx is not nearly strong enough to "kill" anyone. I really have had a shift with it recently. It is telling you to

s l o w your mind down. That works, I got that advice from Cassie a few years ago. Now, I don't sweat it, but still have some minor things happen. Try it, go slowly during decision points, reading mail, sending email, carefully check the facts and dates, etc.
It has made a very big difference for me. I got tired of being "controlled" by it for 21 days every 90.

Good luck :hi:

18. Alternator went on my husband's car today
leaving him stranded on the side of the road. He called AAA, they towed the car back to his place and then he walked a mile to the autoparts store for a new one. He said it works now.

AAA towed mine, before necessary road trip, because it wouldn't start after having been towed due to lapsed registration; towing people had jammed tailpipe into a pile of dirt; fortunately noticed at shop to which towed, impacted dirt removed, car starts! This was part of my 'gazillion' events!

21. I saw your header and wondered if it is wise in this forum to
use that language.
Putting out such interpretations and vibes you are setting yourself up for a lot of potential "easily explained" grief, my friend.

Instead: just be extra careful.

Count on nothing but the best. What you think is what you get.

22. I had a client miss court today
because the clerk wrote down the wrong time on the notice he got 2 weeks ago. Took forever to straighten out once everyone realized what went wrong where :crazy:

and then the broomstick-up-her-butt parking garage witch decided to pick on me today & yell at me for parking in a visitor's slot (hello, witch, I *AM* a visitor), while ignoring TWO employees parking near me in visitors spaces & walking into a secured entrance for employees only. She threatened to have my car towed, I walked off, reported her to the sergeant on duty. Came out 30 minutes later to find a notice on my car claiming to be my 2nd notice, she's got my car's description, crap like that, but *NO* such notice on the employees' cars nor the gray truck that is *always* parked in a visitor's space & was already in place when I parked my car. Got to talk to her direct supervisor; turns out I know him, & she called him & told him all kinds of lies; he agreed that she should have gone after the 2 employees & not put a notice on my car since she was letting employees park there for hours. I was so pissed because I'm aware parking is bad around the courthouse & I do my best to cooperate, most times parking blocks away & walking, & to be the target of harassment today when I parked legitimately in the spot was just too much. BTW, I'm not the only one who has had problems with this witch; she picks out her targets & harasses them, while letting others get away with a lot more (like parking in a visitor's spot every day for 8 hours). :mad: Why karma can't come & deliver payback for all the shit she causes other people for no reason other than she thinks it's fun, I'll never know.

24. My electronics...TV and computer have been going
haywire the past 48 hours. I don't know if Mercury is at fault or maybe even the sun. Even DU had software problems on the website today.
