MERCURY completes its second retrograde journey for 2021 today, June 22nd, and stations back into direct motion at 6:00 PM EDT - do I hear a BIG SIGH OF RELIEF out there ??? ... there were many people who commented on what a particularly disruptive and annoying Mercury retrograde this one turned out to be ... including yours truly as it caused the motherboard on my tv to have a massive stroke last week and that's all she wrote for the tv - would it be presumptuous of me to set up a GO FUND ME page for a replacement ??? ... oh well, just a passing thought !!!
Hopefully, the disorientation, confusion, and outright irritation along with the sudden and unexpected issues that may have been produced by this Mercury retrograde in Gemini will now begin to clear and subside as it becomes time to move forward into the swing of things on all levels ... over the next few days to the next few weeks or even months, there will undoubtedly be some "a-ha" lights coming on in regard to decisions made or actions taken during the retrograde period from 5/29 through today, 6/22, and possibly as far back as 5/14 when Mercury entered its shadow point - the point where it comes out of the retrograde journey today which was at 16 DEGREES 7 MINUTES GEMINI ... did issues and complications or questioning arise in regards to things done during the last retrograde period from January 30th through February 20th - or maybe from previous Mercury retrograde periods ???
Mercury retrograde periods, even though annoying and extremely frustrating at times, are actually a very beneficial thing, especially for those who were strong and brave enough to dig deep down, as we need to validate, or in some cases invalidate, actions and situations gone awry and deal with them in order to finally release them to produce a calmer, positive and productive state of mind thus allowing us to move forward to bring about greater personal and spiritual growth !!! ... if you've had a natal chart done, you should look to see in what house or houses 24 DEGREES 43 MINUTES back down to 16 DEGREES 7 MINUTES GEMINI falls - what kinds of issues did you have to deal with in the areas of life governed by that house or in some cases those houses ??? ... how many of you went with the flow and how many of you tried to swim upstream in the raging current of Cosmic confusion ???
Of course the recurring question we may find ourselves asking now that Mercury is back in direct motion is "WHY" ??????? ...What actions did you take or were taken against you that you may now be regretting or simply wondering why you chose to do or why you were the victim of a particular course of action, and why didn't you or the other person wait a little longer or are simply now trying to figure out why it happened ???? ... relationships may have come to an end - some needed to and others may have jumped the gun and you are now wondering, or will be, why did I do that or end things at this point ... how many of you had relationship issues resurface that you thought surely had been resolved ??? ... how many of you got married ?????? ... did you make any major purchases - homes, cars, electronics - that now don't seem like the best thought out course of action ??? ... there could be problems regarding any purchases made especially with anything where electrical energy and/or computers were involved ... all of these scenarios are possible as the energy of a Mercury retrograde is one where communications and mental energy is going "backwards" ... so now that the mental facilities are no longer going backwards - at least for most of us !!! - it's time to finally RELEASE these emotional holds and allow ourselves to move forward with our lives !!!
Mercury retrograding in the sign of Gemini should have yielded an emphasis for us to rethink how we respond to life and how we relate - intellectually more so than emotionally ... and as Gemini is an air sign and rules the 3rd house which includes all forms of communication, you can bet these got crossed and frequently especially as previously stated this is what normally gets affected in a Mercury retrograde regardless of the sign it is in ... with the keyword of the 3rd house being "AWARENESS", were there not times when we seem to have been "lost in a fog" and not processing clearly ... along with communications, there could have been issues regarding your local environment, brothers and sisters, all means of transportation especially in relation to short trips, and the adaptability of ones mind to learn and understand new ideas ... in regards to health, though issues can flare up most anywhere as Mercury naturally rules the 6th house which concerns health and nutrition, issues could have especially flared up regarding the hands, arms, shoulders and lungs !!!
Mercury now moves forward to exit its retrograde zone which will occur on July 7th, as well as to complete its journey through Gemini ... and just a quick reminder of what this energy is all about follows:
Mercury is very much at home here and functions well because this is an air sign, and it is considered to be in dignity as this is one of the two signs Mercury naturally rules - the other sign being Virgo ... the windmills of your mind are definitely going to have the potential to be spinning in overdrive for awhile ... this Mercury likes to talk ... and talk ... and talk ... and talk - this energy has the potential to give many of us a brutal case of "diarrhea of the mouth" !!!
Mercury in Gemini gives a mind and tongue that can be very restless but very good at absorbing and learning information easily and then sharing it ... one can be quite articulate but sometimes have the tendency to talk or even gossip too much ... there is a skill for verbal expression and the ability to communicate quickly and cleverly ... often the ideas and manner of speech come off a bit superficial due to the urge to communicate perceived information immediately or because one is covering too much ground too fast ... this energy is all about learning and communicating ... there is a high degree of curiosity about everything coupled with an eagerness to learn as much as possible - the world is ones school of life and therein exists a sumptuous, endless and delicious banquet of knowledge !!! ... the mind is likely to be logical, rational, and able to offer information on most any topic ... friendly interchanges are frequent along with the tendency to ask a lot of questions ... there is a high degree of nervous energy which can flow into speech, gestures, writing or manual dexterity in some fashion ... there is also the possibility of physical dexterity and flexibility !!!
Those born with Mercury in Gemini, as well as the rest of us that are subject to its transiting influence, can be very hard to pin down ... one often holds down more than one job or may work on a number of projects at one time ... quick, versatile and interested in the world at large, one tends to live mostly on a mental plane ... one MUST have facts and information - there is a basic need to KNOW ... this energy frequently makes one good at languages and math, gives one a love of reading, studying , traveling, and talking with new people about what you have learned or are thinking about ... there is also the potential for a lack of being able to stick-to-it as well as a lack of order in ones life ... usually this energy can produce one who knows a little bit about everything but not a lot about anything !!!
Mercury in Gemini teaches us to learn to think through communicating ... the mind is fed and nurtured through making contact with as many people and as many subjects as possible ... the intellect is wired up and ready to go ... it must constantly be stimulated otherwise nervous irritability or restlessness can occur ... the mind is efficient due to its ability to be quick and acquisitive, but the quality of the mind is only as good as what is being fed into it through social, business and educational pursuits - input becomes just as important as output !!! ... there is the capability of thinking on two or more levels at one time ... but one must guard against not having a definite direction to move in or else there can be the result of great mental confusion ... the energy of Mercury in Gemini can be expressed the following ways:
POSITIVE: articulate, curious, well-informed, widely read, quick-witted, lively mind, fast learner, dexterous, clever, humorous, sharp, fluent, inventive, versatile, original, handy, interesting, agreeable, unbiased, logical
NEGATIVE: chatterbox, nosy, gossip, superficial knowledge, highly strung, unruly mind, non persevering, fidgety, crafty, mischievous, flippant, makeshift, imitative, simplistic, trite, scatters energies, unfocused, misses the point
Mercury transiting through Gemini is an excellent time to open your mind to countless new ideas and information ... allow your mind to be like a sponge absorbing as much as it can realistically process !!!
Gemini and Virgo born, yet another period of review and reflection for you has come to an end ... how have you been enlightened and how was your life affected by having Mercury retrograding in your birth sign ?????? ... your ruling planet now resumes forward motion and much to your delight so will you - even though you were probably trying to do it during the actual retrograde ... right, of course right !!!
Mercury remains in Gemini until July 11th ... even though Mercury resumes forward motion today, it will not be back up to "full speed" until July 7th when it exits the retrograde zone - the point where it began the actual retrograde period - as it returns to 16 DEGREES 7 MINUTES GEMINI !!!
Mercury remains in direct motion until September 26th/27th, depending on which time zone in which you live, when it will begin its third and final retrograde journey for 2021 which will be completely in the sign of Libra lasting until October 18th and going from 25 DEGREES 28 MINUTES LIBRA back to 10 DEGREES 7 MINUTES LIBRA ... things could get very unsettled in partnerships and relationships both public and private in addition to financial situations ... and to further complicate the issue, Venus, ruler of Libra, will be taking its next retrograde journey beginning on December 19th which could cause issues from the Mercury retrograde in Libra to resurface and have to be dealt with yet again ... best make sure everything is jam up and jelly tight if you can before these periods !!!
