A Breath Before Speaking

May 12~19

This week of the last quarter Moon prepares the body to slide into Sunday’s New Moon, and Monday’s Mercury Retrograde station on the 18th.  The last quarter Moon always asks for shifts in perception. What is seminal from the Full Moon ‘enlightenment?’ It is a time to integrate a new consciousness. With the Sun, and the about to be New Moon both in Taurus, the question is ~how do we wish to use this new consciousness?  Not only have we been working on a physical, practical-Taurus plane, we have also been accommodating unseen, subtle vibrations of a strongly connected Neptune.  If your mind/body has been confused, there’s reason.  The intuitive level has been on high alert, trying to assimilate and use the multiple layers of incoming energies.  Have you been tired lately? Similar confusing energies continue in the upcoming three weeks of Mercury’s retrograde.

Neptune and Mercury dance a twisty tango in the last weeks of May, until June 23, offering intuition and knowledge, spirit and the physical opportunities to come together and be confused, and /or illuminated.  Mercury retrograde periods are about re-thinking-or ‘recalculando,’ and taking time to make sure it’s the right road for upcoming journey.  Not only is Mercury in Gemini, a sign it rules, making it extra powerful throughout this retrograde period, but Mars is in Gemini.  I suspect we shall all be re-thinking modes of communication, transportation, and the technology of same.  We may have breakdowns which ask us to become clearer about our methods, along with redesigning old patterns.

BACK UP YOUR COMPUTERS.  You may have already noticed snafus of a Mercrury-persuasion, but if possible, don’t buy tech equipment or cars until after June 12th~even better, wait until June 24.  Double check important paper work before signing, or sending. With fiery Mars in Gemini, don’t say or write the first thing on your mind, especially if upset….First, a big breath, then re-vamp!  Glitches and breakdowns propel us to upgrade and high step into regenerative evolutionary change.  The bigger the breakdown, the more welcome the new direction.

 

Save the date: The Summer Solstice ~Sat. June 20.  We celebrate by creating ritual for the earth, and for those in need upon the earth.  This year, out of our abundance, and grateful lives, we shall include donations for refugees through: Doctors without Borders;  IRC/International Rescue Committee; and HeartMind International.
