Hot on the heels of an UBER powerful Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo, Virgo ruler Mercury stations retrograde. This is happening at 9 degrees Aries - the degree of our next UBER powerful Eclipse in two weeks.
We know that whatever gets held up now, whatever turns around, whatever is delayed - is important and meant to be CLOSELY LOOKED AT, discussed. Arguments will matter (more than they might appear to) and what we are saying and thinking is IMPORTANT.
With Mercury in fiery Aries - words can be, and sometimes might need to be - blunt, angry, passionate, just be CAREFUL. If a disagreement needs to happen it will, but we don't want to say things we don't mean and will regret later. Mercury retrograde can bring a conversation or situation we thought we were done with back around. PAY ATTENTION. This is important. We will be back here in two weeks with an ECLIPSE!
For now, with Mercury retrograde expect possible delays, hold-ups and turn-arounds.
Sometimes Mercury retrograde can see us going back to an old situation to kind of 'pick up where we left off' - sometimes this makes sense and this time it will undoubtedly be karmic but know that the situation might turn around again when Mercury stations direct in April.
On March 29th, just a couple hours after the Solar Eclipse in Aries and a couple hours before Neptune enters Aries (for the first time in over 150 years) - Mercury is going to back into Pisces. THIS IS GOING TO BE HUGE. We will have Saturn, the North Node, Venus retrograde and Neptune tightly conjunct in Pisces when Mercury backs into Pisces right on top of NEPTUNE - ruler of all this Pisces! They will all be trining Mars at 22 degrees (a powerful number) who will be in an EXACT square to Chiron at 22 degrees Aries (a powerful number).
What is all this Pisces?! Prayers answered? Spiritual awakening? Great grief? Major anesthesia? Water events? BIG magic? Major escapes from reality? Certainly, very old knots are dissolving.
The Mars/Chiron square has been an ongoing aspect since the middle of October when they first squared off. Then they squared again at the beginning of February with Mars retrograde and now we have the FINAL square. PAINFUL ACTIONS.
We are FORCED to confront the past. Very old family/country/roots and security issues and vulnerabilities and wounds are triggered.
We will be feeling VERY SENSITIVE. This square is going to happen with Mercury falling back into Pisces. Feelings will be uber raw, but can we have compassion? Can we forgive? Can we forget? Do we need to surrender/retreat/rest? We have been here before and we are older and wiser now. NOTE - this final square between Mars and Chiron is actually exact on March 26th as Venus retrograde meets Neptune. This is a BIG part of Venus retrograde's return to Pisces. This is the last time Venus will meet Neptune in Pisces in our lifetime and it happens just as Mars - bringing the war home - makes his final painful square to Chiron. Neptune is a conduit to something much bigger than we are and this story is, too.
There is a connection - right now - through this first Eclipse and Mercury retrograde with what is going on later. An old chapter we have long forgotten needs to close out. Know that events from about two weeks ago - before the first Eclipse this week - until the middle of April are very KARMIC. There is a reason we are having TWO of three of our personal planets retrograde for this time period. Retrograde planets are always asking us to re-align something. To look within. To slow down.
This time period is about major endings that have been VERY LONG IN COMING that lead to very fresh starts.
Karmic/fated - must happen.
For now, the usual Mercury retrograde stuff applies. Anything started with "re" becomes the most effective use of our time. Re-thinking, re-evaluating, re-flecting, re-peating, re-unions, re-novations, etc. Mercury retrogrades are re-curring opportunities to shift out of old mental patterns. We are often asked to pull back from the world and face our shadow self in some way. When we’ve exhausted the possibilities for what we can gain by projecting our shadow self onto the external events and people in our lives, we are ready to face them within our own mind (and heart).
Know that Mercury in Aries wants fast answers and Mercury retrograde is not so compatible with anything 'rapid-fire' causing tension and frustration. Don't shoot off an email (or your mouth) without double checking what you are saying and who it is going to. Not listening and rushing can be especially costly. Quick can be careless and come back to bite us.
Take a breath.
Mercury will be retrograde until April 7th.
