THE SKY IS FALLING! THE SKY IS FALLING!
 
Okay, Chicken Little, it's just an itty bitty acorn in the speed bumps of life.
 
I have had two calls in as many days from people scared to death because of Mercury Retrograde and all its accompanying evils.
 
Let me first say, I am NOT an astrologer, and will leave astrology to the astrologers.  I have a great deal of respect for them.
 
HOWEVER, the world is not ending, your relationship isn't over (unless it otherwise was), your house will not fall down around your ears, and you can, after carefully reading a contract, sign it.  Life does not stop or go on hiatus, and neither can you.
 
Guess what?  Last month, my computer broke.  Two weeks ago, my washer broke.  What should we blame that on? 
 
To me, Mercury Retrograde can cause some frustrations, some confusions, and some change.  CHANGE!  AHHHH!  Scary stuff there, huh?
 
It's about review and revising things in our life.  But how about this:  bad stuff can turn to good stuff.  That's right, the bad communication you've been having with Mr. Dude can improve.  Or you can decide you're tired of his antics and you're ready to move on. Change isn't necessarily bad, it's just DIFFERENT!  
 
Different can be a wonderous thing. It can open new doors, bring on improvement.  Why sit whimpering in the corner with a jacked up attitude, fearful of your own shadow?
 
So you big bully, Mercury Retrograde, you don't scare me one bit.  Bring it on, baby!
 
I'll let you know how it goes.  If you don't hear from me, send in a search party!  I'll be the girl under the table waving the white flag.
