Mercury in Retrograde
While Mercury is retrograde, familiar channels of communications become tangled and confused. Expect delays and changes in plans. Use this time for researching and problem-solving.
This is a great time to rewrite and edit, rework an old project or successfully repeat a task. Reevaluate and reconsider, but hold final decisions and approvals until Mercury goes direct.
The tendency is to initialize or finalize projects prematurely. The contents of verbal or written contracts and plans made now may later seem inadequate or unclear. This is not a good time to buy on the spur of the moment without investigation.
This is also not a good time to purchase electronic equipment or cars. Major purchases may be reduced in price after the retrograde period and you can save money by waiting. Major repairs or surgery performed now may be incomplete or plagued by unexpected repercussions.
Double-check and reconfirm every detail. Typed or written errors are easily overlooked, paperwork mislaid, appointments forgotten. Let your sense of humor overcome the challenge of unexpected adjustments.

If the moon on a Saturday be new or full,
There always was rain, and there always wull.
~Worcestershire.
***
The Egyptians worshipped the cat as a symbol of the moon,
not only because it is more active after sunset,
but from the dilation and contraction of its pupil,
symbolical of the waxing and waning of the night-goddess.
~ Brewer, “Dictionary of Phrase & Fable”.
***
What is there in thee, Moon? That thou shouldst move my
heart so potently? ~John Keats

Moon in the Lunar Mansion
Alhak’a, A White Spot, also known as
Caput Canis Validi, The Head of the Strong Dog.
Marked by the fix’d Star: Meissa, in Orion.

Orion with his glittering belt and sword
Gilded since time has been, while time shall be.
• • • •
Thou splendid soulless warrior! What to thee,
Marching along the bloodless fields, are we!
~ Lucy Larcom, “Orion.”
