~ Mercury Retrograde is upon us.... for the next 3 weeks! ~

On November 4, 2007, daylight savings times ends as the Fall Equinox begins.

The Equinox is a time of balance. As the Sun enters Libra, the doors open for rebalancing all aspects of your life, ESPECIALLY RELATIONSHIPS!

When you think Libra, imagine & visualize the Scales of Justice, making right or balancing what has been unbalanced. Venus is the ruling planet of Libra.

Mercury Retrograde begins October 11 and completes it's backwards motion on Novemeber 2, 2007.

Retrograde times in general offer a collective space of slowing down.

 Think "re", as reviewing, regenerating, reorganzing and relaxing.

Mercury represents the way we think, expressing this energy through talking, writing & teaching. In the bigger picture, it includes perception, commerce & education. In a retrograde, caution is encouraged in these areas. Which means, think before you communicate, especially in an emotionally charged situation. Don't be so quick to sign on the dotted line either.

A big heads up : STAY OUT OF & AWAY FROM EMOTIONAL DRAMA

We are taught to "think" our way through situations. Mercury Retrograde offers the opportunity for non-logical and/or spontaneous events. Think serendipity & synergy...these are our guides for this time period.

This retrograde begins in the high energy sign of Scorpio, returning back one sign into Libra by October 23. By November 2, forward motion returns and this ends the retrograde.

The domain of Scorpio is life force.

Given the "communication" aspects of Mercury, here are some suggestions relative to working with Scorpio's penchant for life force and Libra's desire to create relationships.

1. STAY OUT OF DRAMA

2. Physical exercise is a great way of working with Scorpio

3. Mechanical breakdowns are common during this time. Backup computer files, maintain your car and other mechanical devices you use that require routine care.

4. This is a wonderful time for planning~ possibility realm. Scorpio goes into the depths. Research new topics...explore the unkown.

5. If you are traveling, allow the power of spontaneity to be your guide. Travel delays are common during this time. If you do encounter a delay, ask yourself what new & exciting opportunity awaits you thanks to this unexpectd delay. You would be amazed at how many "chance happenings" occur..keep your eyes & mind open :)

6. REVIEW YOUR RELATIONSHIPS! Which ones do you want to upgrade? Which ones are ready for closure? Maintain your integrity, practice compassion & understanding when you are reviewing...be honest with yourself here!

Mercury Retrograde begins October 11 (9 Scorpio) and ends November 2 (23 Libra). Mercury leaves the "retrograde window" passing 9 degrees Scorpio on November17. This is the closure period. Sometimes events that occur during the retrograde have a strange way of "re"occuring during this phase.

You may want to review your birth chart to see your specific planet placements. Birthcharts are an excellent source of understanding & guidance about you, your life and your place in the Universe. If you have never had a birth chart done for yourself, I strongly recommend that you get one done. I can create your personalized birth chart for you, just email me for info! I have studied Astrology for 25+ years and have a degree in Astrology.

 Astrology is considered a science, not just art & entertainment.

The sky has served man well throughout all of time :)

 Becoming aware of what energies come with this Mercury Retrograde will allow you to use this time & it's energies wisely. You can harness this energy like a sail does the wind. Allow this energy to carry you in the direction you seek.  

I am available for you today  6PM-10PM(MST)    Appointments & Callbacks

 I look forward to speaking with you.   When my call button is on "alert" a call, please know I am here in my office.  I will log on shortly to take your appointment or callback.

Light & Love today & always,

Dr Daragh

Dear Dr:

I think my edgy feeling today (as I am a Libra) might be Mercury flexing his muscles but I think it might be old age and plain ole cantankerism if there is such a word! I wish I would of read your blog earlier as your number 1 entry is stay out of drama...but too late I am in hip deep today! Thanks for sharing this info with us and I hope you have a grand evening tonight!
Rosie!

Are you using sideral astrology rather than tropical?

Dear Rosie,

Thank you for your honest comments. Drama is around us all...so don't feel alone ;)
That is exactly why I write this blog....I know this info is applicable to many of us, each in our own individual ways. Becoming aware is half the battle...now what do we do with what we know? There's the challenge for all! Sending you Light & Love today & always :)

Dear Storm,

As I consider myself a perpetual student of life, I came across "The Shamanic Astrology Handbook" by Daniel Giamario & Carolyn Brent.
You may enjoy reading it, if even just for concept. As you know, both sideral & tropical astrology readings offer us valuable insight. My professional take on this is that clients should read both charts, as each formula offers  insight & direction. It is interpretation of all information obtained that serves clients & their personal life mission.

THERE IS SOMETHING THAT WE CAN ALL GIVE. We can all give love. We can all spread love. The ability to love is something that God gave us by means of his love. It is something that no one else can take away from us unless WE ALLOW THEM TO!! Even when it hurts like heck I vow to love ANYWAY!!!
