For though what you per\u00adceive is \u201cReal\u201d it&nbsp;is<br>\na Maya too, and you will need to look beyond appear\u00adances to dis\u00adcov\u00ader&nbsp;the<br>\nFoun\u00adda\u00adtions of Truth and your Greater Reality.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Be Hum\u00adble<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You are mov\u00ading through that most pro\u00adfound\u00adly deep and mysterious<br>\nRealm of Scor\u00adpio now, and there is so much you will dis\u00adcov\u00ader, and yet there&nbsp;is<br>\nmuch that is, may and must remain hid\u00adden. For behind\/beyond what\u00adev\u00ader lev\u00adel&nbsp;of<br>\nper\u00adcep\u00adtion you have come to, there is still much, much fur\u00adther you&nbsp;will<br>\neven\u00adtu\u00adal\u00adly go\u2026So your first step is to step back and approach this mystery<br>\nwith <strong>Humil\u00adi\u00adty<\/strong>, to accept and under\u00adstand&nbsp;that<br>\nwhat\u00adev\u00ader you now under\u00adstand to be the Real is still lim\u00adit\u00aded. But that is&nbsp;the<br>\nway of it, this Path of Awak\u00aden\u00ading you walk is cir\u00adcuitous and spi\u00adral\u00ading, and&nbsp;you<br>\nhave indeed drawn clos\u00ader to Truth and that is good, but you will be lim\u00adit\u00aded&nbsp;by<br>\nand remain in some form of Maya&nbsp;too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Be Self-Reflec\u00adtive<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You are fired by your pas\u00adsion, to rip away the Veil of Appearances<br>\nand so see the greater truth about your Unions. But with Mer\u00adcury retrograde,<br>\nyour real need and oppor\u00adtu\u00adni\u00adty is to re-exam\u00adine your\u00adself, to ques\u00adtion&nbsp;the<br>\nnature of your unions from With\u00adin. So your sec\u00adond step is to be <strong>Self-Reflec\u00adtive<\/strong>,<br>\nto turn the Laser-Like Illu\u00admi\u00adna\u00adtions of Scor\u00adpio back upon your\u00adself. For if&nbsp;you<br>\ndo you will be able to do what is most nec\u00ades\u00adsary to your self-ful\u00adfill\u00adment,&nbsp;to<br>\nbet\u00adter know your\u00adself. You will under\u00adstand that in order for you to reach&nbsp;the<br>\nUnion that you seek, you must know what you have to offer, dis\u00adcern what&nbsp;you<br>\nmight be will\u00ading to sac\u00adri\u00adfice and come to see more tru\u00adly what you seek from&nbsp;the<br>\noth\u00ader too.

With Mercury<br>\nret\u00adro\u00adgrade, you will come to see that there is only one true obsta\u00adcle&nbsp;and<br>\nchal\u00adlenge in every Les\u00adson of Life, and that upon this cir\u00adcuitous path&nbsp;of<br>\nSelf-unfold\u00adment your one true \u201cene\u00admy\u201d will always be\u2026Fear.

And&nbsp;if<br>\nyou yield to them, if you give way and let them take hold, then all of&nbsp;what<br>\nmight have been, this promise of reach\u00ading beyond your\u00adself and tru\u00adly becoming<br>\none with anoth\u00ader may be lost again\u2026but this need not be&nbsp;so.<\/p>\n<p>You must choose as to whether you will be bound back by what&nbsp;was<br>\nor to believe in what might yet be. You can use the Pow\u00ader of Mer\u00adcury Retrograde<br>\nto dis\u00adcern what formed these shad\u00adows, of how or why the bridge between yourself<br>\nand anoth\u00ader was not made or became bro\u00adken. You can learn from your pain&nbsp;and<br>\nchoose to har\u00advest this Spir\u00adi\u00adtu\u00adal Les\u00adson which is a Gift for you, for this is&nbsp;how<br>\nyou will tru\u00adly know what to do or not do now.
