Im confused what exactly is it? Lots of people have been talking about it. how can you see what house your mercury is in retrograde?My friend told me (who's also into astrology) she lost her cellphone at a club when mercury was in retrograde in her 2nd house of possessions. Has this affected any of you guys? IP: Logged |

This is pretty basic stuff that is easy to find with a simple google search. I'm in a helpful mood, though, so here's a mini-lesson. (But first, for the sake of my poor Virgo moon who likes to keep everything somewhat orderly... there are two to three Mercury Rx threads in the last two pages already. It would be just as efficient to ask questions in one of those. Also, since this is pretty basic, there's a separate forum for basic Astrology. You need a password to get in for God knows what reason, and that password is "astrology" ) First off, search google for Mercury Retrograde and you'll find a bunch of articles; like this: http://www.astrologyzone.com/forecasts/mercury.html Now, when you go to astro.com to bring up your natal chart, you can pull down this menu: OR you can bring up your chart like normal and click this little link I have circled: Your chart with transits will look like this, with green glyphs on the outside of your chart. This shows where the planets are for the date specified. (Default date will always be the day you brought up the chart.) Down at the bottom you see the green text denoting the degree each transiting planet is next to your natal placements. Below that are the degrees where your house cusps lay. In my chart in the example, Mercury is transiting at 7' Sag, which is in my 12th house. Hope that helps. IP: Logged |

I could easily write out a step by step manual on all of that, but the pictures are more efficient. IP: Logged |

10th house is the area of your career/public image and/or persona. (As an aside, I'm curious about something. When I started getting into astrology --and still now-- I pretty much scoured the internet for every bit of information I could find as well as reading books. Do you do much research on your own, or is posting questions on here your method for uncovering info? I think I remember your Mercury was in the 12th? I'm just curious as to how your Mercury is working as far as the research end of things. I don't know if I have the answer, but it's something interesting to ponder. I think I dive into the archives to uncover every last detail because my Mercury progressed to the 8th house. )

Ah yes efficiency and Virgo. Isn't it great having your ruling planet there?-Signed, Capricorn with Virgo Saturn (in House 12, which explains the apparent lack of order and efficiency around my person...) IP: Logged |

Defensive much? It was an innocent question and I've got my answer so I'll leave you to your sassafras. IP: Logged |

Oh, you know though, just when I've got everything down to a routine and in order, that square from Uranus comes roaring in and shakes everything up. It'd be easier if I never had order to begin with. IP: Logged |

It's okay. A lot of girls feel the same way, I'm sure.

No.. It's my chart! I've been stalking you for the last few hours. Was wondering if your still around these neck of the woods. It's so weird to see a chart that is only a few hours younger then me. Strange part is how you mention your Virgo moon so much. In my case I'm left-handed.. Can't spell worth a damn.. And retardedly smart. I've never connected to my Virgoness even as order like you do and I got a Virgo rising also XD I am a walking tower.. literally lol like a 16/7 life path tower. I look at it more that I'm good at being uncomfortable so I can't stop changing all the time. Adjustment. I live and breathe rational thought. Ideas and attitudes stay inside me while they are mixed, simmered, cooked and digested. They are then served up, full blown. “This is what I think about it, period, paragraph.” You may question me for you own edification; you may discuss things with me to improve your understanding but under no circumstances may you belittle my ideas because I have turned myself wrong-side-out already and I can not take the rejection of my naked brain. You see my emotion is not in what I say but in what I don’t say, not in my idea per se but in the process I went through to come up with it. You are supposed to think it’s easy to reveal myself. My security is in hiding behind my righteous intellect. Hit me up some time if your still getting threads from this site. Would love to hear some Saturn stories. I'm really interested in Saturn on Ketu. That's my favorite aspect in my chart... It's so ME! You're all about that mercury-moon mutual reception I think I read somewhere. I found you doing a random Google search on Pallas- Psyche conjunction...n saw Virgo moon. Allan19@gmail.com is my email. Write me someone. My life is pretty predestrian now so I got plenty of free time would love to hear from you. Allan
