Dear friends,
October the month of the Cardinal Air Sign of Libra. Libra showers us all with the energy of finding balance, harmony or seeing all sides of a situation to then find the best way to proceed.
Mercury is Virgo’s and Gemini’s ruling planet but is of great influence to all air signs as this planet influences the element of Air. He’s a great facilitator towards all forms of communication, learning, empowering and energising the mind. The attributes of this planetary player is a great asset to us all in many ways, unfortunately not when in retrograde. Mercury retrogrades occur about 3 times a year for approximately 3 weeks each time. And so this retrograde started on the 27th of September with its reverse-gear energies escalating till the 18th. Do ensure you read your horoscope below for more on this.
Keep in mind that there are some other major planetary players remaining in retrograde. These are, as follows. Lucky Jupiter ruler of Sagittarius moves direct on the 18th, currently in Pisces. Teacher & Captain of Karma, Saturn ruler of Capricorn, currently in Aquarius is direct on the 11th. Psychic Enhancer & Illusion Creator, Neptune ruler of Pisces, travelling through Pisces stays in retrograde till December. Deep dark Pluto, ruler of Scorpio, travelling through Capricorn also stays in reverse for months ahead. The big decisions you make and act on during major retrogrades can become pointless and/or, bear very little, or no fruit. Often, by the time the planet go forward, you’ll be forced to re-think your initial plans & decisions, possibly making the initial decisions and actions all a waste of time.
But life has to go on and ofcourse sometimes we’re forced to make important decisions that can’t wait. If so, take your time, engage some forethought, maybe get the right guidance and then make up your mind.
We have a Libra New Moon on the 6th and an Aries Full Moon on the 20th.
