Mercury Retrograde

I hate Mercury Retrograde!  A Retrograde is the period of time that a particular planet appears to be travelling backwards.  Astrologically, they are regarded as a time when things related to the particular planet's sphere of rulership tend to go awry.  Mercury is the ruler of communications, so computers and communications system get wacky, and misunderstandings abound.  The Mercury Retrograde is not considered a good time to begin a new project.

Anyway, we are in a Mercury Retrograde right now, and thankfully it ends in less than 13 hours.  When it began on March 12, it seemed to be a easy one.  I had two things going on that were begun just before the retrograde, and both seemed to be developing nicely during the first half of the retrograde.  However, much like the Ike and Tina Turner version of Proud Mary, the second half has been rough. 

There were two important developments that occured in my life in the month before the retrograde.  The first was the Thean church, and the concord between those of us who created seems to be coming apart.  The second was a more personal relationship, and suddenly that is gone.
