Ongoing study of Astrology today – Retrogrades.
About retrogrades – what happens in retrogrades?
Maya flourishes & deception & the eyes are shrouded & thinking is blurred.
When making important choices (like voting) in retrograde (even with one retrograde, especially if Mercury or Venus are retrograde), people’s minds are not clear, the issues are not clear, the real issues that are not understood.
It’s as if humanity was living in and seeing thru a fog.
And so choices are made in retrogrades (and we had 8 retrogrades during voting).
And what happens after the retrograde(s) is/are over is complications, sudden realization of the issues, clarity of thought, a change of minds, a realization that something was missing during the retrograde.
Everything turns upside down, things hidden are revealed, one realizes what was chosen is unable to be used or integrated or applied or moved forward. A most interesting state!
So we shall see what occurs as the retrogrades end.
Which is after the 13th (Friday, the 13th when Mercury & Venus station direct).
Disciples are observing.
Note: conversations concerning the outcome of the votes will continue for a long time.
Also…
We shall see what occurs between now & January 20th (when the votes are to be confirmed).
Between the Mars retrograde January 10th, 2027 (at 11 Virgo) & when Mars turns direct (21 Leo on the last day of March 2027).
What was the response of the Prez regarding the votes (tsunami of blue)?
The prez shrugged & said he will work with them if they want to work with him (some already called him). If they are dangerous he has the power of veto. And turned to building his ballroom.
And so life (the drama) goes on, continues on. Everyone learning along the way.
