So, yes, I know what Merc Retrograde means and all that stuff, and I'm still somewhat ignoring it, I mean, I just had a job interview today. I don't even care if it falls apart after April 12th, I can simply look for the next step in my job hunt. At least I'm working again.

Well, anyone else notice this one being particularly strong? Maybe it's because it's in Aries...maybe because it is because I am ruled by it. But the things that this retrograde is supposed to do are affecting me quite a bit, I have had to re-everything so many times lately. However, communication problems are SO MUCH for me ever since it started! I cannot STAND it. It is like what I say is all boggled up, and theres just a huge communication block or it seems like the other person is being a huge jerk. I wind up rather not re-talking to them afterwards. People really seriously have seemed very antagonistic the past 2 weeks.

let's see, broken relationships, broken vehicles, people i've never met speaking to me, computer and faxes not working and then miraculously working.......i'd say that i've made it a conscious effort to know when mercury retrograde is coming - especially as much as it affected me the end of last year. I did post about the current mercury retrograde a few days ago, here, at lindaland so if you want to check it out to see how it may affect you and prepare yourself according, here you go - hope it helps:

Wow you mentioned some other stuff that's happened lately to me that I forgot about...especially the people I've never met speaking to me part. Lots of weird computer issues. That post you did is so cool, I've actually started taking action for myself this week. This is mine!! It is definitely a very strong energy, as this is ringing so true with me

Mercury retrograde in Aries impacting your 12th house – Your inner sense of self is going through an overhaul. You are making a major transition within your life and you are ready to come out of this transition sporting a whole new you. You have completed something of great measure in your life and you will be moving the results of this completion out into the world. You will leave the tools and the workshop image behind as you take the produce of your transition – a new you – out into the world. Leaving behind the efforts and the strong belief within your self that carried you each step of the way, you have reached a level of accomplishment that you can be proud of and it is at this time that you are ready to be hatched into a new world. This Mercury retrograde time period allows you to look around you, your workshop to see the array of situations and packaging of time that will stay within your memory, yet you will not take forward. You will walk out of this workshop of time and become a new person, the person you’ve wanted to become.

hi virgo
i'm glad it was of some help for you during this retrograde. yeah, there are some other quirky stuff going on which i'm sure i noticed at that moment and then forgot about. ok - i know i said it wasn't as bad as the end of last year for me but i'm damn near exhausted and that sucks because it's friday. figures. serves me right for getting a few hours of sleep a night this whole week - now i'm going to crash on a friday and wake up extra early on a saturday - i'm telling you.

headaches, my daughter who has a venus aries 10th house/square moon has been jogging with her daddy (10th house matter activated) and was climbing a fence near the park and slipped and has a small puncture wound on her scalp.

-aries as we know rules the head.

i haven't been feeling this retro much. but i'm certainly feeling transiting Uranus opp my natal venus and moon in virgo.

I usually fair Merc rx's quite well. Not sure why, but normally I don't experience anything out of the ordinary during them. I even went out of town at the start of this one, and aside from a minor problem with a futon frame that I easily fixed, there weren't any technical and machinal problems. But Aries rules my 8th house, and I must say, that since Merc went rx, dream-wise and psychicly-mystically, things have been, well, rather intriguing lately. LOL.

This has been a particualy creative time for me too, with Mars is transiting over my natal Mars, while my natal Uranus is conjunct the trtansiting Jupiter and oppo all these Aries transits.

My computer crashed and I have had to redo everything that I worked on yesterday - which is so annoying.

For me the most trying part of the Merc RX seems to be near the end of the period....rather than the beginning - and no amount of preparation seems to work.

thanks VTT. dear daughter is fine!

like GN, retrogrades do not seem to effect me much, but its usually when merc goes direct is when i discover issues, problems, etc.

take care,

This merc retro has been okay, actually, I've been communicating with people on a much more positive level during this retrograde than before it. A lot of good, clear communication with no misunderstandings, especially with Mr. Aqua who can be so irrascible and contrary just for the sake of being that way - he's been very agreeable lately. Hmmmm...maybe we need more merc retros like this one...

I would love to take a hammer to my computer, though, it's been slow on the network. Driving me nuts, but don't think that's a merc retro thing though, either.
