Hi all,I need some advice on whether it will be too terrible to open my new online website during Merc retro. At the moment I am awaiting approval for an application, this is the last thing needed to allow me to go live. The application has been in underwriting since early last week....I've had to submit and re-submit paperwork to make sure all my ducks are in a row. And now I am waiting for an update..... I hope I will know something by at least Thursday but If not I think I may just wait, although I do not want to. I am very eager to get going and everything is all set up and ready to go all I need is an approval to go live. But here comes mercury retro on the 4th, wah! IP: Logged |

^ agreed. mercury retro doesn't have to be as bad or foreboding as it's made out to be.just make sure to dot your i's and cross your t's. a little extra time and care will work magic. that's ultimately what mercury retro is all about it….it just insists, and will bite you in the butt if you don't give all the attention that's needed.

Depends entirely on how MERC is natally placed. This has been a rather intense shadow for a lot of folks. Think of the 'natal', too. Would your business' incorporation chart benefit from MERC RX or would it hinder it? I'd be especially aware of any online business launching during such a time. It may be that it's beneficial for you -- but be sure. Say, something rather avant garde, pioneering, a bit quirky and even a little 'ahead of its time'. I can see MERC RX fitting with such a business. But if it's more traditional, conventional, and wouldn't jive with MERC being RX, consider waiting. If communication is going to be a big part of your bottom-line, make sure that the incorporation date has MERC positioned best for the nature of your enterprise.

BUMP UPCan someone take a look at the event chart for my business....Im having a lot of obstacles and feeling discouraged. Things are stagnant but I cant turn back, I dont want to turn back.... I waited a month to find out I could not move forward without a co-signer. Now I have to work on that or move to another solution. IP: Logged |

Off topic - I was loving the square energy with venus/mars earlier this year (I have venus 20libra and mars 13cap).I'm not sure how to read event charts for businesses. It might help someone if they have the industry or topic. The retro venus would make me cautious about starting a beauty based business such as a salon or product blog pertaining to beauty supplies. Even a dating site/service I'd be cautious about. I'm not sure if that is accurate with event charts/businesses. Just an example on how industry may help someone because I certainly wouldn't get a haircut or update my look with that energy. Why do you need an application to go through for your site to go live?

hi mischievousoneMy site offer smoking accessories like tobacco pipes, vape pens things of that nature...kind of like an online headshop. (which makes it a high risk niche, making it hard to find a credit card processor) I need the app to get a merchant account for cc processing. Mercury saturn and moon rule business, Jupiter in the 5th supposed to be good... IP: Logged |

Let me lay out a principles here:The best way to approach such a business in terms of timing and understanding the astrology is to first look at your chart's natal potentials and transits/progressions. Astrology works in layers that way. A web-based business should not be launched during Mercury Rx. A web-based business that deal in items that are illegal in some customer's states needs added power, preferably Asc/MC enhancement. But most important is your chart and what you are going through. This is actually an electional query far too complex for a forum like this in which answers would only be delivered by committee. ------------------ Expert rectification, professional astrology consults http://kannonmcafee.wordpress.com/ Complete desriptions of all Rising Signs: https://kannonmcafee.wordpress.com/rising-signs-2/ IP: Logged |
