Mercury stations direct at 8:50 am EDT Tuesday, but we’re in the most interesting and\/or challenging part of the retrograde — the last moments before the change of directions. Mercury is slow and powerful right now, with added emphasis. Note that this tricksterish planet is in Gemini, one of the signs that Mercury rules, and the one that most emphasizes the two-sided nature of consciousness. That’s a reminder not to be surprised by surprises, to pay attention for the other side of the story, and to search your own mind for options and possibilities that you may not have noticed before. This effect will become increasingly prominent as the station-direct approaches Tuesday morning EDT.<\/p>\n

This might have the “truth revealed” effect that Mercury stations are so famous for (or at least that I have observed many times). This may be sly and it may be subtle; the effect may be 100% dependent on mindfulness. Many things are revealed that we tend not to notice. Plenty of highly relevant information bubbles out of the back of consciousness that never gets put to use. It would be wise to delay important decisions, actions, purchases and\/or anything not easily reversed. Take your time — pay attention, look and listen for that forthcoming relevant information.<\/p>\n
As I’ve mentioned a few times before, we are tracking a Supreme Court decision in something called the Hobby Lobby<\/em> case. This is the one that seems to be about whether corporations can have religious freedom, and more to the point, whether people can use a religious excuse to discriminate against others. I believe that this ruling will cut a bigger slice of history than most people are expecting. The decision is expected Monday morning EDT, right in the mix of the Mercury station. The implication is that this decision will have some unexpected properties as well as unintended effects.<\/p>\n We will be back Monday morning at about 11 EDT with that news and analysis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Mercury stations direct at 8:50 am EDT Tuesday, but we’re in the most interesting and\/or challenging part of the retrograde — the last moments before the change of directions.
