It's that special time again...
From astrologycom.com:
At 15:49 UT (Universal Time), on Monday, May 26th, 2008, Mercury the cosmic trickster turns retrograde in Gemini, the sign of the Twins, sending communications, travel, appointments, mail and the www into a general snarlup!
This awkward period begins a few days before the actual turning point (as Mercury slows) and lasts for three weeks or so, until June 19, when the Winged Messenger reaches his direct station. At this time he halts and begins his return to direct motion through the zodiac. [end quote]
It's worth remembering that Mercury retrograde periods (which include substantial parts of three months of the year) can be approached as opportunities for deeper, more intensive communication, if one has the patience to make the effort. It is useful to employ a general rule-of-thumb and repeat important communications three times or so, however, in the spirit of "belt and suspenders" during this special time of the year.
Some Witches would have you believe that your best way of getting through this period is to hide under the bed and disconnect the phone. If you get too jittery, remember always to breathe, ground and center...
