Mercury went stationary retrograde at 21 degrees of Virgo on Tuesday the 29th of September, and will remain at this degree until tomorrow when it slowly starts to move forward again. Situations often get a little more confusing at the end of a retrograde Mercury when it goes stationary direct, before it moves forward again at it's regular 1 degree per day clip. Author Carol Rushman says a stationary direct Mercury in Virgo, " will express the energy in an analytical way.The mind is organized.Opinions are reached after much consternation and thought. The need for perfection, however, may delay decision-making. People will be exceptionally picky and critical. They can be critical of others', but are usually hardest on themselves."

Do not expect miracles because Mercury has gone direct this week. If projects were delayed when the planet of communication went backward, it may take until Mercury reaches the point it turned retrograde which would be about mid-moth, at 6 degrees of Libra on October 14. We are into the full moon energy,and this lunar event occurs at 11 degrees in the Cardinal sign of Aries on Sunday October 4th at 2:10 A.M. EST.

This is a full moon to take seriously. When a planet is in a cardinal sign the energy acts swiftly and is more public and apparent. Aries is ruled by Mars, the God of War, and is all about the 'self.' In other words, used constructively, it can be a time of new beginnings on a personal level, and moving forward. On a negative level, to much self can translate into self-centeredness and we may experience this energy through other peoples' actions or aggressiveness. Aries is a fire sign and it will not be a moon for wallflowers. Many people may be looking for an opportunity to express their ego's, consciously or unconsciously.

The full moon is further compounded by the fact that the planet of communication (Mercury) opposes Uranus on Sunday and Monday October 5th/6th. This aspect occurred earlier on September 22. It is a fractious aspect, and you may fight the urge to say things you may later regret.Think before you speak. If your mind is racing, slow down. Be careful of accidents while driving and traveling in general. On the world stage we are likely to see drama unfold as the full moon in the sign ruling the God of War reaches it's peak we may see additional military action, or threats of military action, and aggravation that is apparent in the world. When Mercury last opposed Uranus on September 22, we saw Qaddafi and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad both give speeches at the G-20 that stirred unrest. As Mercury rules transportation, we also saw the arrest of an alleged terrorist that officials say was planning to blow up Grand Central Station. It is possible we will have more news relating to this situation or other transportation related situations, as well as unusual/dangerous situations relating to weather.
