Remembering We Are a Courageous People
I am writing this a week before election day so I have no information on the election’s outcome. All I know is that if an election is held during two major retrogrades (Mercury, our thinking & Mars, our action) and if one of them, Mercury, turns stationary direct (standing still in the sky) on the actual day of the election…. well…. it’s correct to assume from many years of astrological study that a certain amount of uncertainty, conflict, chaos and confusion, a complete muddle actually, would result. That is all I can write about the election.
In our school, we teach students that astrology does not predict. Astrology instead, offers a lens through which we can observe world events, and understanding those events after they have occurred. As we assess this most important election since the founding of our county, the most important thought to ponder is – “All the world’s a stage, everyone playing their part,” including each of us. Let us play our part well.
So, looking toward the sky for a moment and away from the election. As Mercury is stationed (still) in the sky (26 degrees Libra), much of our interactions & communications may remain quite “still” too. Earth reflects the heavens always. What is above is always below.
When Mercury (communication, understanding, learning, connection, etc.) moves slowly forward again, our heads will clear, our minds will be able to decipher outer reality with more acuity, more understanding. Communication, contact and connections begin again. While Mercury was retrograde, we were rediscovering, sorting through and assessing the past, seeing what was no longer useful.
Soon we can begin new projects, initiate new plans, purchase those large essential and important items needed. We remain careful with communication, thinking, speaking, driving, etc. For a while we still check & recheck the fine print of any document. We ponder upon our words before we speak. We are compassionate with others’ communication. We are patient and kind. As Mercury slowly enters Scorpio, we remember we are a courageous people. Saying together during these times, “Warriors are we and from the battles we emerge triumphant.”
