Mr. Mercury Retrograde is back ….   His domain is
communication and transportation; his is not a small kingdom. 
Computers and cars love to act up during Mercury Retrograde.  
Remember Murphy's Law? "What can go wrong, will go
wrong."  Mercury will be Retrograde April 6 through April 30th.
   
         This is the time to rethink, redo, revisit, reconnect,
rewrite, rebuild, reevaluate, reconsider, review, revise, research,
and repair multiple situations.   Mercury retrogrades in Taurus, and
then jumps back into Aries.  The issues of concern, fighting,
arguing: yes it is better to express negative emotions than to
swallow them. Conversely, if we speak our truth from love not fear we
will not have to say a lot of "I am sorry" later on.

    Working out is an excellent way to channel anger, so that we
can clear the negatives and approach others about the issues of
concern rather than dumping our stuff on the nearest target.    
Anger is also most useful when setting healthy boundaries with those
that are not honoring you or are using you as there dumpster.  
     
         Perhaps you have been experiencing Mr. Mercury's
menacing mix-ups?  Making messes is Mercury's specialty.   He
loves to play hide and seek, yes, the gods (archetypes) do have a
sense of humor. Lost items can be discovered, while keys, wallets,
documents, and other important items can go missing… 
   
         Mechanical items have a tendency to breakdown more than
usual, especially Mecurian ruled areas: travel, communication,
speaking, writing, listening, mail, community relations,
and "business as usual." Stay awake and be alert to your
environment, especially while driving.

    When Mercury is retrograde, you are well advised to delay
signing contracts or launching construction projects, unless you
don't mind revising, redoing it later, and are not attached to
outcome.  Any new job taken, personal or business partnership formed
under Mercury retrograde will be changed later. If you don't mind
temporary work, or a short term partnership, then go ahead, and merge
under Mercury Retrograde. The best strategy for riding the wave and
navigating the Mercury Retrograde cycle is to keep a sense of humor! 
Be patient and double check everything. When shopping keep receipts
you may be returning or exchanging your purchases. 


How many Aries people does it take to change a light bulb?
a) -Just the one. You want to make something of it, eh?
b) -None. Arians aren't afraid of the dark.
c) -Only one, but it takes a lot of light bulbs.
